Dolphins defense is better than they showed. Sapp has been slightly better than garbage since they got him and he needed to be cut. Wilson is a better option though he is green. Will Allen is a better option than Sapp also. Carroll looked lost as did most of the defense on the no huddle. Brady was exceptional and that makes the Dolphins defense garbage, but Henne had essentially the same stats (minus the 99 yarder) and the Pats look great? Makes no sense. The Dolphins defense is pretty good. They were not prepared well and shouldn’t have had the cramping issues either. The Dolphins will be much tougher than the naysayers would like to believe. Based on the faulty logic on some of these posts, the Steelers are garbage as well since they suffered a similar blowout with less offenseive output.

Benny also got torched by Welker on the goal line. That’s 2 TDs he made look too easy, and it was a 2 TD game.

Agreed that Nolan Carroll didn’t look so hot either.

Vontae and Sean better stretch their effing legs this weekend. If they’re not on the field, we are worthless. The conditioning coach needs to take some responsibility for it too.

my question is where was the coaching on that play… or the safety who should have rolled his coverage over top… the way he was flinging the ball, they should have expected a pass..

watch the video, the safety made a play and missed the ball when sapp was already trailing welker..had the safety played the wr ur talking about a big play but not a 99 yarder

A lot of hate and anger in this world today. Look at these posts geez. I don’t agree with the move but it just opens the door for a young guy to step in. You Dolphins fans need to calm down, they actually were in that game with 5 minutes left even though Tom was great. If you think the front office and coaching staff shows no faith then maybe you fans should. Have a coke and a smile already.

Well, I’d be shocked if Sapp wasn’t a Viking before week 2.

He could fill in immediately better than Mr. Toast himself-Chris Cook.

C’mon Vikes, pull the trigger now!!!

that 99 yard catch an td killed me in fantasy football, but cutting Sapp was a coward move.

Gregg, You did not watch the game or the film on this game. If you did you would know that Sapp got beat numerous times by tight ends, wide receivers and just about everyone. He is to slow and for that reason was cut. Why the coaches did not see this is their issue. Sparano will be fired if the team does not win this season. Last season the offense was terrible because of the coaching, not allowing Henne to audible and being predictable. The offense was certainly not the issue in this game. The coaches did not prepare the players; they did not even hydrate enough and therefore cramped. Sparano will not fire himself but he should. He is to blame in addition to Benny Sapp who was like a drum being beaten by everyone.

Forget what Tom did, I see it this way, we were out coach, and not prepared for this game. Unless they turn this around fast I think we will be the first team to fired the head coach. Bill

What kind of team allows a player to keep getting burned all game long without making needed adjustments in-game?

If he messed up on one play, he doesn’t deserve to get cut. If he messed up on a lot of plays throughout the game, that’s a failure of game management by the coaches. Adjust, take away the weakness the other team is exploiting, regroup, swap the player out, do what it takes.

It’s a coaching failure. Team is doomed with its current leadership. Last-place division finish for sure.

Denver should put a claim in for this guy after our cornerback injuries. 2nd on waivers, this will be a good pickup

So, Sapp gets punished for giving up 99 yards receiving? Who gets punished for the other 418 yards Brady put on them?

Why was Benny Sapp on the Pats best WR anyway ?

Also they should have cut the safety that should have been behind Sapp !!
