Miami Dolphins In Depth

  • Miami's "above average" pass protection to be tested

    Ponder this statistic: The Dolphins are among the three worst offenses in the NFL at preventing sacks of their quarterback. Miami has yielded 22 sacks, which trails only league-worst Seattle (24) and St. Louis (22).

    Now consider coach Tony Sparano's take on Miami's protection: "I would say that the protection as [...]

  • Oh, now it's the media's fault? Really?

    So Reggie Bush said after Sunday's game that the Dolphins "stink."

    Then Yeremiah Bell told examiner.com that, in part, Bush stinks for saying that.

    And then today the Dolphins public relations machine tried to patch that crack in the locker room because, of course, 53 disparate men always agree on everything and [...]

  • Vontae Davis misses practice again

    Cornerback Vontae Davis is having a hard time staying healthy this season.

    He was on the side and not practicing during the open media session today, strongly suggesting he would miss the second consecutive day of practice this week -- the only Miami player in that situation.

    Davis has a hamstring injury.Still.

    He's [...]

  • Are Dolphins so bad Sunday is hopeless?

    I covered the University of Miami football team in the mid-to-late 1980s when they were rolling to the point they had more talent than today's Dolphins. (It's not an argument so don't even think about it because today's Dolphins don't have anyone the caliber of Jerome Brown, Michael Irvin, Bennie [...]

  • Sparano house is for sale but he's not quitting

    Coach Tony Sparano has a perfectly plausible explanation for putting his Davie, Fl. home on the real estate market.

    "We're empty nesters," he said of he and his wife Jeanette. "When we moved into the house we had seven people living there. No it's only us two."

    Understandable since his daughter Ryan [...]

  • Fact or Fiction: Dolphins coach version

    There are a lot of rumors and reports out there relative to the Dolphins coach situation. Allow me to tell you what is true and what is, well, not exactly true for the sake of not calling things lies or misrepresentations or outright errorneous reports:

    1. CBSSports.com reported Tuesday that intermediaries [...]

  • Dolphins sign Losman, place Rosenfels on NFI

    The Dolphins will be nursing starting QB Matt Moore this week because he's taken a beating and has sore ribs and could be limited in practice.

    So they figured Sage Rosenfels might have to take more reps and might even get a chance to play against the New York Giants. Except, [...]

  • Players should recognize they're auditioning for next administration

    The Dolphins are 10 weeks from the kind of transformative change that will spin your head. There will be a new head coach. There probably will be a new personnel boss. And the players you see on your program on game days?

    I would estimate that the coming change will sweep [...]

  • Perception may hurt Dolphins in hunt for Cowher

    Sometimes perception is reality. And sometimes that's enough to hurt.

    Well, this morning, I'm told the Dolphins may have been hurt in a self inflicted way by the lasting pictures of former Florida coach Urban Meyer sharing time on the sideline with Dolphins owner Stephen Ross at Sun Life Stadium Sunday [...]

  • Meyer is not a Dolphins coach candidate right now

    You saw Urban Meyer talking to Dolphins owner Stephen Ross for part of the fourth quarter and into overtime, didn't you?

    It was obvious to everyone in the press box. It was obvious to everyone in the stadium. It was obvious to everyone who saw the shot on CBS.

    He's not being hired [...]
