As a life long Dolphin Fan I .......Last night was an embarrassment , they looked thoroughly confused in all 3 respects of the game. Undisciplined, Lost at times, with little or no answer for what Cincy brought to them.
The Head Coach has to be responsible for that.
Remember hearing how Parcells got the attention of his Giants team by cutting a popular team guy for undisciplined play. The team took full notice and he was then able to build the squad to his specs.
Probably look for Gase to do something similar because hes in danger of losing this team.
Guys running into each other on kickoffs Multiple times! Who does that ???? Wheres the coaching, can't be this disorganized and hope to be successful.
Tanny is gun shy in the pocket, seems like he should be getting rid of the ball a lot SOONER , does he not see the check downs early enough????
Yes losing 4 of your starting OL doesn't help but this kid has had 13- 5 sack games in his career, and simply cannot trust his OL Getting Sacked 5 times in any game constitutes a proper ass kicking.
Oh and he's had to learn how many offensive systems in his 5 years...... 5 !!!!!
Here's the thing.......Teams got 5 years invested in him, (this year included), and even though they publicly state that hes the QB of the future and Blah Blah Blah, but they have to be asking themselves in private what direction to go if hes doesn't show significant progression, or they better start.
The Head Coach simply does not have the respect of the team, so, he's gonna have to do something rather significant to get the attention of this team. Post Haste. There is talent on this team and his job is to put that talent in the best position to succeed. Based on what I saw last night, the system in place isn't doing that.
The defense is probably the worst tackling team in the entire NFL, multiple bodies Whiffing on the same play...
I keep telling myself that they CAN'T be this bad ............ But I can't feel the least bit hopeful that they will turn this around, either on the field or in the front office.....
Hard to be confident in the future of the franchise, when you witness games like that...
