More than the bullying specifically, I think the NFL has a problem on it's hands with the way veteran players extort money from rookies. In any other workplace on earth, this would be considered an or

They're missing a great big chunk of their offensive line. You might've heard about that.

GAME 4!!!     MIAMI HAS THE DOLPHINS, IT HURTS TO WATCH THEM PLAY!   THEY RUN THE BALL FROM GOAL TO... 1, AND FUMBLE IT AWAY.   THEY CANNOT RUN, THEY CANNOT CATCH, THEY CANNOT EVEN PASS   THE

Tannehill's play action is pretty horrible though. I don't know how anyone can fall for it.

 

He does not always sell it well. It's hard to judge Tanny too much when his weapons are a jopke.

 

Lol Ron.

His play action confused the balls off of me on his touchdown.

 

That was great although the Dolphins have not run a zone read play since the Wildcat so no surprise it caught everyone off guard.

 

That might have been Sherman's only good play call of the day tho.

I'll admit that was pretty good.

 

He had another run where he dove head first out of bounds, and the Patriots defender hit him helmet to helmet. Why no flag?

I thought that was the case. But I've seen backs and receivers take weaker hits and the defender gets flagged and even fined.

 

It just looked like a really big hit also when you consider that fact that he was diving out of bounds.

Yeah I've seen things like that get called but I don't think it's a bad non call.

 

They did miss a face mask on Tanny that was costly.

That missed face mask was pretty bad. There was also a pass interference call that I thought was horrible. Yes, the Miami defender was holding more then he should have, but the ball was so overthrown and going out of bounds, there's no way he could have made the catch.

So true. That was 3rd down too. Oh well.

 

And I actually felt that the defender kind of dipped his shoulder and didnt exactly lead with his helmet on the out of bounds play.

 

I'm in the camp that plays during the regular action of a game is just a shit happens thing. Some hits are egregious and need to be flagged and fined. Those fines are hefty. Say you're making rookie money, $350k, a $25k or $50k fine is steep. It should be a percentage of your cap number for that year.

Thank you. So true. I was so unmotivated to watch the game. I just didnt care. The offense juat seems terrible and devoid of any true skill guys on the outside. Dropped balls, overthrown balls, no separation at all. Just 3 yards by run, 3rd and long, punt. Boring.

 

At least when they sucked, you wondered what shit storm was coming next.

 

So undynamic (a word?) at TE, then Fasano goes and makes that grab in the endzone. Crazy. But they need so much on O.

 

I wasnt totally focused but did Vernon Davis make any impact at all yesterday?

David did nothing again.

 

Fasano makes 2-3 amazing grabs per season but is separation challenged like every other Dolphin 95% of the time. It's telling that the dolphins needed an inch perfect throw/catch on 4th down to eke out one TD.

 

Awful.

I've been playing a season with the Dolphins on Madden 13. Of course, I made some unrealistic changes to the roster.

 

Offense:

Rodgers

AP

Megatron

Hakeem Nicks

Gronk

 

Defense:

JPP

Patrick Willis

Revis

Clay Matthews

 

I like this team a lot more.

That isn't even playing Madden. Have you no scruples? You play as is or don't play at all.

 

My friends and I would play but whoever used the best team was a puss. We would spin the teams and wherever it landed, you could go up one or down one and that was the matchup. I'd actually be happier when I won with the Browns or something.

I suck at the game though. Even with that team, I'm still 9-6 going into the final game against NE. I actually threw 7 picks in my first game, but I'm starting to get the hang of it.

 

On a completely unrelated note, I really love that NFL Play 60 commercial with Cam Newton.

We did that method for Super Tecmo Bowl.

When playing against the computer, who cares if you have a super team. You want to have fun while you're playing, and for me that's more fun with players that can do amazing things, thing drudging through a season eeking out wins with scrubs.

 

Now, when playing your friends, it's key to have an even match up. Even against friends that are better than me, I refuse to pick a significantly better team than they pick. I would prefer we both pick good teams, so it's more fun to play, but if he picks the browns, I'm going dolphins, just the way it is.

So I guess the Dolphins are still "technically" still in the running for the playoffs.

 

Aside from winning the next two games and the Patriots sitting Tom Brady for the last game, what else needs to happen?

Not only do they have to beat Buffalo and then NEW ENGLAND AT HOME (hahahahah), but

 

The bengals have to lose their last two.

 

The Steelers have to lose their last game against the Browns IN PITTSBURGH.

 

And, for reasons unknown because of a tiebreaker situation with the Steelers, the Jets have to lose at least one of their last two games. (against the Bills or Chargers)

 

 

There are also tie issues that could come up, but since they are unlikely I didn't include them.
