Partially but they don't even start the game running they put too much pressure on a weak line and the D has to keep getting thrown out there...it's just a bad formula.

Dolphins should have signed Evan Mathis when he was still available in the summer - he's made the Broncos and Peyton look much better so far this season

Agreed as the oline has been and continues to be a problem. The main reason why the offense is struggling and everyone on the planet knows this. That's why I give Lazor a bit of a pass although he should be protecting Tanny a little more keep more backs and TE more often. They run too much spread..

I have Tannehill as my back up QB hope he gets better soon I don't want to drop him.

Dan Campbell is the interim for now

He is saying all the right things so we'll see what happens - I feel like the Dolphins are similar to the Eagles somewhat right now

Yeah I like what he said and only a former player can get tough and dirty like that. Maybe it's what the doctor ordered? I hope!

That might mean more running the ball, which could be a good thing for them as long as the o-line holds up

I think Joe Philbin and Bill Lazor weren't a great match because both probably wanted to throw more than run, so having one guy who seems like he wants to run more and one who wants to throw might be a good combination

Yep true and Cambell looks like he'd like to beat you up...should be a good change. Anything is better than spinning your wheels in mediocrity.

I see that MacDonald was put on waivers to make room for Laughton. I wish Vinny would think about retirement at this point.

He's getting paid to suck right now and his legacy should be taking a hit. Maybe if he thought about that instead of getting paid he would retire.

The scary part is that he worked real hard in the off-season to prepare for the year. Skated twice as much and hired a personal trainer.With all that, he looks a step behind.

Ron Hextall is the most exciting thing about Philadelphia sports right now

If you were making his kind of money, you wouldn't retire

12 Michael Raffl - 28 Claude Giroux - 93 Jakub Voracek
10 Brayden Schenn - 14 Sean Couturier - 17 Wayne Simmonds
24 Matt Read - 21 Scott Laughton - 20 R.J. Umberger
76 Chris VandeVelde - 78 Pierre-Edouard Bellemare - 25 Ryan White

55 Nick Schultz - 32 Mark Streit
15 Michael Del Zotto - 23 Brandon Manning
82 Evgeny Medvedev - 22 Luke Schenn

35 Steve Mason
[30 Michal Neuvirth]

for tomorrow. so to summarize changes from last year...
1. Laughton in for Vinny
2. Manning in for Grossmann
3. Medvedev in for MacDonald
4. Nuevirth in for Emery

one, three, and four, are definite improvements. two we'll have to see. let's get this ride rolling!
