If Dolphins win this year, the hashtag "Fireland" will disappear fast. Must say Jeff has done a good job during FA so far.
Long leaves St. Louis, Dolphins 'encouraged'
Jake Long may still join the St. Louis Rams someday. But probably not today. After three days of dining and meeting and poking and prodding and, yes, negotiating, Long left the Rams facility earlier without a contract from that team. That is a blow of sorts for Long who expected he'd have a deal...
Coyle wants a multi-dimensional, attacking defense. The Fins issue on D is they had too many players who couldn't do multiple things. Dansby and Burnett were decent to good in coverage but had some issues in the run game and weren't good blitzers. Smith could only play press because he was lost in zone coverage, where you can get more picks from than man. This year, the Dolphins are remaking the team with playmakers!
Dolphins introduce Wheeler, Ellerbe to media
Skullking around Dolphins camp I've picked up a nugget here and there. Here's the top nugget I have relative to the Dolphins apparently curious exchange of linebackers from Karlos Dansby and Kevin Burnett to Phillip Wheeler and Dannell Ellerbe. Thinks playmaking. Think pass coverage. Think more ...
If Fred Davis's legal issues aren't too much of an issue, I would take a flyer on him. Only problem is he's more of an H-back. We need at least 1 true TE to help the running game.
Unrestricted free agency: Day two activities to watch
The second day of free agency is likely to bring another flurry of activity with Dolphins connections. To start, the club is trying to upgrade at tight end after failing to land their prime target Jared Cook on Tuesday. Today, Jets tight end Dustin Keller is scheduled to visit with the team. If ...
This post hit the Fins strategy right on the head, WE NEED SPEED!! Need to draft that TE Eiffert from ND as well, as long as he can run a 4.55
My take on Ross, Wallace, Jennings, Bowe
As you know, Stephen Ross spoke on the state of the team Monday. And I came away from the talk absolutely certain that the Dolphins have some sort of plan for 2013 -- because the owner mentioned this plan half-a-dozen times. But when I asked him what that plan is, I was disappointed to hear the ...
In that case, you could goto UD on Chandler, and play Dirk with Bosh, since Bosh is our longest guy. This way, Lebron can help off of Marion when Dirk goes to his turnaround, which is a bit slow. That way, if Lebron get there, there can be a steal or a block that leads to points on the other end.
Dirk stopper?
Before we get to the question of who guards Dirk Nowitzki late in games, let's get to the Heat's new rallying cry in this series: Erase the ink! Apparently, that tattoo of the Larry O'Brien Trophy on Jason Terry's right bicep will be removed if the Mavericks don't win the championship. Not that ...
He's a combo type player. At this point in the draft, you need to get players that are able to contribute. Maybe he can? Check this out http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-draft/09000d5d81f25a0e/2011-Draft-Profile-TE-Charles-Clay-Tulsa
Draft Day No. 3 live blog starts here at noon
When the draft resumes this afternoon, I'm hoping the Dolphins land a certain RB that I've had my eyes on for a while whose name I will not type here because, believe it or not, I've recently learned at least one rival AFC team reads this blog for updates on what the Dolphins are thinking -- obv...
I like the pick of Gates! If his speed is as advertised, he will makes defenses play the Dolphins more honest! Now we only need a seam TE and we will be set!

I don't care who is cast as point, as long as Wade is the point when it really matters.
Getting a handle on the handlers
It certainly has been a unique week when it comes to getting a handle on the Heat's ballhandlers. From the go-get, Mario Chalmers has been a nominal ballhandler, which might be unusual for most teams at point guard, but not on a Heat team that once successfully cast Damon Jones in that role.Late...

Hate to say it but I have to agree with Colts fan 100%. They could not guard their own shadows on Monday night!
Gibril Wilson stays, other stuff [Updated]
You might have read I called for Gibril Wilson's benching in the previous post. It's not going to happen, according to a team source who thinks I'm a dork for suggesting it. Alrightie then. I guess the Dolphins will continue to watch hidden yardage pile up if Wilson continues to miss tackles. I ...
The defense has to hold water after the O has put Peyton on the sideline the entire game.
Dolphins-Colts tied 13-13 to start 3rd Q
It's a slugfest! The Colts score a TD. The Dolphins answered. The Dolphins got a go-ahead field goal to take a 13-10 lead. The Colts tied it as time ran out in the half. Ronnie Brown already has 83 yards on 11 carries. He carried it all of 10 times vs. Atlanta. the Dolphins have been outgained ...
Tom and Shaggy, you two are not looking at this blog properly. Shaggy, you have to make the defense respect you sometimes. Tom, the players we have can get the job done if given the chance to. All real Phins fans will hope that the Trifecta reads this blog and try to make things happen on offense, instead of waiting for the defense to make a mistake.
Miami's curious offensive view of the world
I am not a football coach. I never played the game beyond pickup games of touch. So I am certainly no Xs and Os expert. But after 20 seasons of covering the Dolphins and three seasons of covering the Hurricanes during their dynasty years before that, I've picked up things here and there. And I s...
That is the best blog you have ever written Armando. The only way to challenge a defense is to get it to do the things it does not want to do, not the other way around. Keep it coming!
