MNF: Dolphins at Saints

[clyde_carbon]

It's gonna be interesting watching Tannehill vs. Rob Ryan's defense tonight. No one talked about Ryan Tannehill last year, but I actually liked him much better than RG3 and Wilson in the draft, and I think he'll be better than both down the road, IMO. He spins the ball really, really well.

Mia's def is a bit underrated but they are going against one of the elite QBs. On offense, can Wallace get open and make an impact?

 

[BINGO]

I also admire the way the ball flings out of his hand - the spin he puts on his passes. He throws well on the run (not as well as a healthy RGIII though) and he is still developing. I would love to see the Dolphins draft someone like Austin Seferian-Jenkins in the draft. And focus on the Oline with their 2nd and 3rd round picks. Clay seems like a good player, but he's not the ideal fit at the TE position.

Like I said in the past, he's Locker but he actually had a mind to make decisions.

Ball Game

Miami's O-line is playing a LOT better than I thought it would. Maybe it's just the crappy Saints' D?

 

[NinerSickness]

Lamar Miller, a favourite of some of the regulars like Clyde & Pozz (and I), is running really well. He looks sharp.

 

[ChrisPozz]

3rd and 1 inch, according to the official. Literally.

 

[BINGO]

John Jenkins should have been a 9er.

 

[NinerSickness]

I always liked Tannehill, but I'm shocked at how much progress he's made in just 1 season. He doesn't look like a 2nd-year QB.

 

[ChrisPozz]

Daniel Thomas - One of the worst RB draft selections I've seen made in a decade, in my opinion.

And to think he played like 16 games as a college QB?

Daniel Thomas - One of the worst RB draft selections I've seen made in a decade, in my opinion.

He was a 2nd Rounder. 62 overall

Matthews is pretty average for a 1st rounder

What I'm saying is I wouldn't have considered drafting Daniel Thomas for any system, even as an undrafted free agent.

 

[ChrisPozz]

That's Tannehill's 15th fumble in just over 19 career games (7 lost).

 

[ChrisPozz]

102 of Brees' 141 passing yards has gone to RBs but they've shut out Graham and Colston. Sproles is killing them.

 

[ChrisPozz]

Sproles over 100 yards receiving with 8+ minutes to go in the 2nd quarter.

So much for shutting out Graham. Brees floated one up for Graham and he came down with it with a defender in front and behind him. Touchdown.

Nice showing by MIA so far.....

Like I said in the past, he's Locker but he actually had a mind to make decisions.

Locker's plenty fine upstairs. He was NEVER gonna be Drew Brees in terms of accuracy, but as a playmaker, he is/was second to none. But that's for another thread.
