Okay, I think we finally have the chat room situation worked out. It’s been pretty popular in the past for a bunch of us to get together and gripe about how the game is going in real time! Anyone wishing to participate will need to first register a user name.   In the right column of any Dolphins Truth page, under the META heading, you’ll see “Register”    Should be to your right just under the ad.   Register. Or just click here:   http://dolphinstruth.com/wp-login.php?action=register It will ask you for a User Name and your email.    You have to enter your real email, because the systemRead More →

Now that the hurt and anger have simmered (somewhat), we turn our attention to the mess of a team they have up in Cleveland, our next opponent. We only need one play in our entire playbook going into this game:     Have Tannehill look to see which WR Jamar Taylor is covering, and then throw it to him.   It’s that simple.   For several years, Dolphins Truth pointed out how horrible Jamar Taylor is, and he certainly didn’t get any better by moving up north.   There is no excuse to not pick on him.   It will turn into easy receptions, easy yards,Read More →

Okay, Gronk is out.   That’s the good news. The bad new is the stupid chat room is requiring you guys to login in with accounts, so I said No for now.   Let’s just chat via the comments.   Or, if you see the chat window in the right column, underneath “recent comments” you can try that.   I think if you have a WordPress account and log in, then the chat will appear.Read More →

Deciding who to root for in a Jets-Bills game is like deciding what poison you want to drink. Let’s just root for some injuries. For anyone interested, we’ll have a new Chat Room up during game days starting Sunday around 12:45 EST, if all goes well.  Always cool to chat live with our fellow Dolfans.Read More →

Adam Gase had his first post-game press conference today, and there were some interesting highlights. First of all, he is mad at himself, and that’s a good thing.   He has to learn from his mistakes, and getting mad at himself will do the trick. He was talking about Tannehill’s touchdown drive…and why it took the Dolphins so long to score.  “I was mad at myself because I should have went to what we ended up going to earlier in the game. I kept talking myself out of it. He (Ryan T) kept pressing me to get to that stuff, basically that drive that setRead More →

  A.   Cut him for costing us the game by dropping an easy touchdown. B.  Cut him for disrespecting the country that gave him the chance to become a multi-millionaire. C.   Cut him for committing a holding penalty on our very first play of the year. D.  Cut him for getting in Jarvis Landry’s way on 3 different plays when Landry was trying to run. E.  Trade him to New England forRead More →

Kenny Stills dropped the easiest, sure-thing touchdown pass in NFL history, which cost the Dolphins 7 valuable points and all the momentum in the world as the Dolphins went on to drop a tough one in Seattle, 12-10. Stills began the day by refusing to stand for the National Anthems. On his first play he committed a hold. Andrew Franks missed a short field goal that didn’t help momentum either.   Technically it was blocked, and the announcers pointed out that Laremy Tunsil was lined up wrong.  I see their point, so it’s hard to figure out who to blame, so I go with DarrenRead More →

No other explanation for how Stills is handing a free win to the Seahawks.  He must have bet money on Seattle. Even before he dropped the easiest catch in NFL history, he got in Jarvis Landry’s way on THREE different WR screen catches to Landry.   And on the first play of our NFL season, he held a guy. Not to mention the way he spat on our country by not standing for the National Anthem.   I hope we have the phone number for Griff Whalen’s agent.Read More →

It appears that Jay Ajayi has quit the Miami Dolphins.  Or, at least, he has quit on the Miami Dolphins. Numerous reports have surfaced to indicate that Gase has benched Ajayi for our season opener Sunday.  In fact, Ajayi was told to stay home.    He is not in Seattle.  Sources seem to indicate that Ajayi and Gase had words over Gase’s decision to move Ajayi to the second string.   Team sources said Ajayi sulked all week and was extremely upset. As many of you know, Dolphins Truth has been a strong supporter of Ajayi, but we can no longer do so. First ofRead More →

Not sure if it’s good news or bad news, but Dawn Aponte is leaving the Dolphins. She will, however, still be on Stephen Ross’s payroll, as she transitions into his real estate companies. Over the years, I’ve asked hundreds and hundreds of fans of all NFL a funny question.   I always ask them if they know the person in charge of their team’s finances.  They usually answer with the owner’s name.   No, I say, I mean the actual employee who does the paper work.   No one ever knows. Except Dolfans.   For some reason, Aponte’s name has been in the news theRead More →

There were a few questionable moves as the Dolphins cut down to 53, but there were no great shocks. For Dolphins Truth, the biggest disappointment was that Damien Williams made the team.  He’s had 3 years to prove himself, and for 3 years he’s done nothing.   He drops passes, gains a yard or two at a time, and misses assignments. And let’s never forget the time he fielded a kickoff, dropped it in the end zone, ran out of the end zone, ran back into the end zone, and dove back out…all so the Dolphins cold start a drive on their one-yard line andRead More →

Is anyone at the game or knows someone there?  Please send in your comments about the new stadium, seating, awning, scoreboard, food, Zika…anything.  Very curious about the atmosphere there.   Jay Ajayi just fumbled away his starting job.   Congratulations to Arian Foster. Why not have some fun from our own 45 and go for it on 4th?   Does our punter really need that much more practice than our backup linemen? Xavien Howard just got neat for a first down.     Good thing he is finally back form injury and ready to stop passes, right?! Tony Lippett, on the bubble and fighting forRead More →

Like many of you, we at Dolphins Truth were hesitant at first when the Dolphins hired Adam Gase.  He was not on our radar for head coach, and we definitely wanted to hire a coach with experience and a championship under his belt. And while he’s still never coached his first game yet, we’re seeing things in him that are starting to win us over and give us a little confidence. First of all, his youth and modern thinking could be an asset.  There was a time in the NFL when the shotgun formation was a new marvel.  When a cover-2 D or a zone blitz were innovative. Read More →

UPDATE:    So the non-football injury list is a reserve list, meaning that Jordan and Vigil are not eligible to play until Week 7.    It looks like Vigil has a back injury, and Jordan has numerous injuries, including judgment, maturity, etc.    I’m not sure how the Dolphins are able to call these non-physical injuries, but it has to do with wanting to keep them on the roster without wanted to I.R. them for the entire season.    The Dion Jordan saga continues… Projected starters Kenny Still, DeVante Parker, and Laremy Tunsil were all injured at practice Monday, but as of now, the injuries areRead More →

Mark your calendars for November 27.    That’s the date when ungrateful spoiled punk Colin Kaepernick comes to town.  I suggest us fans all give him a warm Miami welcome. But  I hope the Dolphins defense welcomes him even more. I think pounding his head into the turf a few times would be a warm welcome, don’t ya think?  That would definitely be worth a 15-yard penalty.  Or two. And then, if he’s dumb enough to get back up, then we can see how strong his oppressed knees are. That being said, I doubt Kaepernick will be healthy come November 27.   Too many other teamsRead More →

While the Dolphins writers and less-educated fans are raving about how great our offense looked in the third preseason game against Atlanta, Dolphins Truth readers have come to expect a little more.  Our readers expect honest analysis. That’s why I hate to burst everyone’s bubble, but the offense didn’t do as well as some writers want us to believe.   The only stat that matters is Points.   And our starting offense scored only 7 points against a horrible Atlanta defense, a defense which began resting its starters while our first-team O was still out there. When you score only 7 points in a half, it’sRead More →
