Mike F…you’re losing cred…it’s one game…I didn’t see many post after the Patriots shredded the Jets “D” last year. It’s one game…lets see where they’re at Week 8 before we hit the panic button!

breaking news!!! thank god i was able to get this update. im pretty sure there is a single person in the organization who is pleased with the dolphins defense.

now i know they got their ass beat but come on its the first game. all these people that say andrew luck sweepstakes and the dolphins are screwed. youll see when we unfortunately go 7-9 or 8-8. well be better than people realize, but it sucks cuz were not gonna get andrew luck or get in the playoffs and well be in the same place next year. and i say “were” as if im in the dolphins organization lol

Miami will beat Houston, play good defense and then all of you a-holes can start talking about something else like…..not enough running game…not enough mustard on that guys hot dog, the music wasn’t loud enough during timeouts…the cheerleaders didn’t dance the same way. Just pass from carbon monoxide. Thanks, appreciate it.

The Fins D is “Lapsing into a coma”?! They have played ONE GAME against the best QB in the league and they finished with the 6th best defense in the league last year! It’s apparent PFT has something against the Dolphins, I just don’t understand why.

Jeez, look at that picture. All those beatings from defensive linemen and all the stress from sucking so bad has really aged Chad Henne.

Wait, the friggin owner says “Gee, we allowed too many yards this week” and that’s a story ?? Did anyone see that game ?? If the guy had come on and said ” they’re really a good d” then I’d have an issue with what he said. I just don’t see a story here folks…you saw the game, did Ross say something that wasn’t true ??

Steeler fan you crack me up. Talk about having too much time on your hands!

There are only a few things that can be said….

1. your team is old
2. ravens are better
3. ravens are WAAAYYYY better

If Picksburgh loses to lowly Seahawks you should be prohibited from posting for a month.

mustbejealousof6,

your comments are almost as big an embarrassment as was your team was last Sunday

Yes. That’s what we need. More owners to get personally involved in the day to day stuff.

That’s always worked well right?

You feel that you have the right to express disappointment???

What have you done lately, Mr. Ross???

Mr. Ross, you should ask Coach Shula if he ever had so many out of shape (poor conditioned) defensive players play for him? I’m sure Don Shula was as embarrassed as I was as a Miami Dolphins fan. I won’t have been upset if the Dolphins had lost, to due better talent but it wasn’t. It was because of lazy and out shape players. That’s not right, these guys are suppose to be professionals.

It will all be worth it in three years when Andrew Luck is taking snaps, Brady is retired, and Rex Ryan is a DC for the Bengals.

Steve was appalled that he was able to go 8 of 11 for 184 yards and 2 touchdowns against them in a recent Dolphin practice. In his street clothes.

I don’t think the Miami Dolphins fanbase is pleased with Stephen Ross’s ownership either !

I’m sure all 10 people that showed up to the game didn’t care cause they scored more than 20 points for once.

maybe the Fins would play better if they got all lubed up on Tom Brady’s magical water.

Plenty of teams in week 1 defense looked bad. Just take a look at all the QB performances of week 1.

Who cares about Ross? As long as Jimmy Buffett and Fergie are pleased there is nothing to be concerned about.

Mr. Ross, would you like to know why your stadium will be half empty? We the fans are not happy with you or your front OFFICE. As a EX – Ticket holder we will stay away until this organization put people in place that understand how to operate a NFL TEAM. You and this staff have NO clue, you have turned this once proud franchise into a dog and pony show. We hope you loose millions this season, maybe you will sell this team off,and get the HELL out of this business/ TOWN.

Sparano needs to figure this out so he does not get fired. The Dolphins lost both of their starting cornerbacks to cramping. Vontae Davis and Sean Smith will be starting this Sunday. Someone did not prepare the two for the conditions by hydrating. Moreover Benny Sapp was beat like a drum by Brady. Sapp is to slow and small to cover the faster tight ends. Sparano is a reactive coach instead of being proactive. He will be fired by Ross if that continues.

One game does not mean our offense is “Fixed” it’s better from the crap from last year, but it needs to show consistancy to be real. The defense which was good last year, just didn’t show up. Brady did what he does, find the weakness and attack it. Much props to New England’s TE’s.
Firing Benny Sapp was a good start, maybe a few more..

Beware of Mike Nolan’s “big nickel”…he loves this defense and thinks it works well, but it sucks. He thinks he can play it in pass situations to prevent a sneaky run, but in the end it doesn’t work against either.

I don’t think the fins have the personnel to run Nolan’s defense, but I suppose that won’t stop him from trying. God forbid he adjust his scheme to match his talent.

Ross seems like a horrible owner…

Oh Oh, There’s the red carpet rolling out for Ireland to go on another Linebacker shopping spree in the 2012 draft.

Does anyone have Bill’s cell phone number?…

I mean Cowher’s not Parcells.

A change is coming in 2012.
