Chad did not bounce all over the NFL...he played for 2 teams, the Bengals and the Pats last year. The Pats cut him because it is reported he couldn't grasp the playbook and the routes. If he can't grasp the Pat's playbook then I doubt he can grasp our's with the new Westcoast offense. I don't think we'll sign him and if we do he better not cause any distractions.
Practice notes and Philbin confirms Chad workout
Not much news out of today's Oranized Team Activity except that Joe Philbin a) isn't happy with the number of drops from the Dolphins receivers and b) confirmed they've already worked out Chad Ochocinco. "It was recent," Philbin chuckled when asked about timing. I'd take that to mean early this ...
Thanks Tim...it's true there are a few people that post on here all the time that everything they write is so negative they can't possibly be Dolphin fans. I read this blog almost daily and don't post very often but all this negativity is really getting old. If these guys hate our team so bad why not find another team to follow. I for one think this was the best draft Ireland has done yet but you have to give it time to see what kind of pro players they'll be. Nobody knows that right now geeeez.
Miami WRs still a big question mark
The NFL is a passing league. The New England Patriots -- with a relatively weak running game and a flawed defense -- have proven that for years. The New York Giants, meanwhile, have been able to overcome the Patriots in two Super Bowls because they could both pass and attack the passer. So champ...
I agree oscar, I posted the same thing earlier about Jack Sparrow and since then he has slinked away like the troll that he is, but now I've noticed he's been replaced by dusty bottoms....another negative non-fan loser. Probably the same guy who just changed names.

Dolfan Rick...love the Rays and the Lightning. I do follow the Bucs a bit but my heart lies with the Fins. Hoping for good things from the Rays this year. They're looking pretty good so far. Gotta beat the Rangers tonight so we can at least take 2 out of 3.

Your right mike, my bad. I can't understand why someone would come on a Dolphins blog just to post negative garbage and lies. I have been a Dolphins fan since 1971. Alot of bad years and frustration but I am a true fan now and always will be. Even through the bad and good. I haven't felt good about this team in a long time but I think we may finally be on the right track with the new regime.

Jack Sparrow
I have been reading your comments on here off and on for a while now. You never have anything positive to say about this team. I think you just come on here to annoy all us true fans. You aren't even a Dolphin fan as proof by your own words...
"You Fin Fans are silly beyond belief. What about this saying. Hope for the best but plan for the worst?"
"You fin fans are hoping for the best and planning for the best."
Why don't you just get the f uck off our blog and go play with yourself. I am so tired of reading negative posts by ignorant individuals like yourself. Do us all a favor and be gone so the true fans can talk about the positive things that are coming for this team.

Report: Manning cleared to play (sort of)
ESPN is reporting that quaterback Peyton Manning has been cleared to play by two doctors who determined that "the stability in his neck would have allowed the quarterback to play this Sunday if the nerves in his arm had regenerated to a satisfactory performance level." Great. Manning, as you kno...
The bottom line is we were outcoached. Belicheat never shuts down his offense...ever! How many times has he been acused of running the score up...numerous. He doesn't run the score up, he just never shuts it down or plays conservative like this disfunctional organization. We desparetly need an offensive coach that has the same killer instinct as Belicheat...period!
NFL truths escape the Dolphins
FOXBORO, Mass. -- The NFL regular season is 16 games long. It begins the second week of September and ends the final weekend of December. An NFL game lasts four quarters. That's 60 minutes of football. I write this hoping the Dolphins read it, as many are wont to do, and learn the truth about th...
Leigh Bodden was released by the Pats today. I say sign him immediately because he's better than most of our secondary and could really help out. Also would like to see Jeff Fisher as next head coach, he's still hungry for a super bowl win and always had good teams with Tn. Just say NO to Gruden, he's not a good coach. He won his S.B. with Tony Dungy's team. His team got worse every year after the S.B. win and then he got fired. Enough said on that.
Stephen Ross: I have not reached out to Cowher
There have been multiple reports of undercover and backroom wheeling and dealing by owner Stephen Ross as he tries to land a new coach for the Miami Dolphins. The latest is an NFL.com report citing an unnamed league source that states Ross has been in contact with Bill Cowher's agent about makin...
The only problem I have with Brandon is the drops. When he does catch the ball he is usually making plays and gaining yards. He is still hard to bring down. The passes he has dropped which really haven't been many are magnified due to them being potential touchdown catches. Getting rid of him is not the answer as he still draws double coverage regularly. There are worse problems on this team than Marshal.
Ejection, Brandon? Ejection? Really?
I wish he was just joking. But he wasn't smiling and actually said he was not kidding. "I'm serious," Brandon Marshall said. I assume he knows better. But I'm not sure any more because some things are impossible to figure out and Marshall is one of those, right up there with the true purpose for...

Too bad we don't have Zack and a JT in his prime...it wouldn't matter what defense we ran with this group of guys. We basically have the same group of guys as last year but they can't get it done. Gotta be the coaching...just saying
So David Garrard saga wasn't about money
There is one side's story. There is the other side's story. And there is the truth. And, here I am, stuck in the middle with you. I am the idiot always trying to chase the truth while both sides often run for cover or tell different versions of the same story. Such is the David Garrard saga. As ...
I agree with you kris...I could not believe they actually used that photo. Al Davis is not my favorite person but my god he looks like he just survived a car crash. Show some respect Miami Herald for a guy who was truly a pioneer in the NFL. R.I.P. Al Davis.

Say NO to Gruden...he won that superbowl with Tony Dungy's team. He is not a good coach. If you look at the years he was here in Tampa his record got worse every year as he lost the players from the superbowl team. Just ask Warren Sapp who is the biggest shyt head I've ever had the displeasure of meeting and he'll tell you Gruden is not the answer.
Coaching hot seat needs to chill until after season
In two of the three newspapers that regularly cover the Miami Dolphins, today's editions include opinion pieces on how coach Tony Sparano is on the hot seat. One treatment, in this publication, cites a friend of owner Stephen Ross as saying the owner is unhappy with the team -- join the crowd, M...
I haven't seen anyone post about Columbo. The guy is the worst right tackle I have ever seen. I've heard people on here calling him a swinging gate and that's exactly what he is. If anyone watched him during the game he wiffed on multiple blocks. It was so obvious I can't understand why no one is talking about it. The defense played absolutely terrible we all know that but if they don't get rid of that jackazz at right tackle henne will be injured by week 3
Dolphins agenda: Get well and on to Houston
The good news for the Dolphins is that rookies Daniel Thomas and Charles Clay both practiced full, without limitations today, according to the injury report. Barring setbacks in the coming couple of practices, both will play against the Houston Texans Sunday. "I'm hoping," coach Tony Sparano sai...
Tony Sparano...the great offensive line coach from Dallas can't put together a freaking offensive line to save his life. How did he ever get that job in Dallas? Columbo is the worst pick up of this year but because he played in Dallas we have to have him. I'm so sick of this BS with our offensive line for the last 3 years I wanna puke. If they don't replace Columbo, he will be the downfall of Sparano and Ireland.
Dolphins roster moves and what they mean
The Dolphins have announced the roster moves which got them to the mandated 53 man roster: WAIVED: CB Vincent Agnew, TE Brett Brackett, WR Patrick Carter, G Garrett Chisolm, QB Pat Devlin, TE Dedrick Epps, LB Jonathan Freeny, RB Nic Grigsby, T D.J. Jones, T Matt Kopa, WR Phillip Livas, WR John M...
I know everyones moved on to the next blog but I wanted to make a statement about Henne here. The coaching staff in my opinion is the reason Henne play's the way he has this year. I remember when he came in last year after Penne got hurt the kid played with alot of emotion. If you looked at his face he had the same scowl that Marino used to have and he was a leader in the huddle.
This year his demeanor is totally different...no scowl, no emotion, and it doesn't appear he's even in charge in the huddle...it's like he's just going through the motions. I truly believe with a different OC, and quarterbacks coach he would be a different and better quarterback.
It's like alot of us have been saying all year, take the handcuffs off of him and let him play his game and stop pounding into his head not to make mistakes. He looks like he's shellshocked this year compared to last.
Just my opinion, but I hope they make some coaching changes and keep Henne at least one more year.
RoboHenne is back and that is not a good thing
One of the things I perceive is a problem with quarterback Chad Henne is his robotic, unfeeling, almost zombie-like approach to playing his position. Henne would never think of calling a freak audible that isn't dictated by the defense or coaching staff. He follows his progression of reads even ...
ALoco...where have you been for the last decade?
Taylor to address media tonight
Jason Taylor played 13 years for the Miami Dolphins. So, darn it, he's going to speak to the South Florida media first before he goes to New York for a press conference. I'm told Taylor will conduct a press conference at his foundation's headquarters at 8:30 p.m. I will be there. By the way, 79...
I know this is business and I was happy when we got the Tuna here but I have just lost all respect for him and Ireland. The way they have treated a player who gave everything to this team and still could contribute alot this year makes me wanna puke! I've been a fan since the early 70's and Jason Taylor is one of the best defensive players we've ever had. All he and Zack wanted to do was retire Dophins and this front office spat in their faces. F the tuna and his cronies!

So true menace. Especially if it's for supermodels and hot stars!!
Randy Starks in the clear from 2009 arrest
As the media is always quick to publish loud headlines when athletes get into trouble, I am today trying to give balance to that fact and tell you when the trouble is resolved at a volume that doesn't blare quite so much. Remember the Randy Starks arrest last May on Miami Beach for aggravated ba...
Menace,
Good for you but then again the job's a bit different up there then down here. I'm sure your way more busy then I am. For example, I'm workin right now in my cruiser in one of the slowest area's. It's not always like this, usually workin a very busy area and don't hardly get a break.

Menace...absolutely and to add to that if you get a rep. for bringing in B.S. cases when you actually have a good one they won't give it as much consideration. I try to teach the young guns that all the time but these new guys think they know everything...oh well, they'll learn.

The MBPD officer was obviously pissed and padded the charges once he found out Starks was a pro football player. I've done it a couple of times when I was a rookie but then learned better. Good thing the State Attorney realized it was a bad charge they couldn't prove and dropped the felonies. Justice was done in this case.

Can we ever put a team away and not go through this week after week. Not to mention the crowd still remains a factor. Dammit!!
Dolphins lead Bills 14-7 in fourth quarter
ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- The Dolphins dominated the time of possession in the third quarter, holding the ball for over nine minutes. And those used that time to drive for a game-leading TD to give them a 14-7 lead going into the final stanza. Join me in the comments section to see how it ends.
Here we go again...defense not getting it done.
Dolphins-Bills tied at 7-7 going to 3rd Q
ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- The Dolphins are the better team today. Anyone looking at the rosters sees that. Anyone looking at the list of injured players sees that. Anyone looking at the teams line up sees that. Anyone looking at the scoreboard isn't quite so sure. The Bills and Dolphins are tied 7-7...
