Dolphins at Eagles Preseason Thread

Barnett is a stud we would kill for.

I don't have a feel for Jones v. Awuzie because they are different types of corners.

Lewis is far superior to Douglas if he is healthy.

I laughed when they picked Hollins in the 4th. I just did not see him as reliable. As our luck sees it, Switzer can't even log a preseason snap after being a horse at Chapel Hill.

Woods should be far better than Gerry who they keep flopping between LB and S.

I hate even judging Awuzie, Lewis and Woods, mainly because it appears they have adopted the Mo Claiborne track to NFL success so far.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing on Switzer. No injury issues until he gets here. Now he can't get on the field. I don't know how much of that is the gender fluid coach though.

Mack is my former analyst's brother. Be kind.

While we went back to Nolan Carroll a second time, we did not do it for Chris Long.

He has already been a solid veteran influence on that team.

But hey, he is too old. We would rather mess around other fools who have zero common sense.

Progress stopper, dude.
 
My brother's a Dolphins fan. I've spent my entire life rooting against them because I'm a major league bleep and that's just the way I roll but he's getting older, loyal as we all are, and I kind of want to see them do something.

Good luck with Cutler though. Great talent. Not a great leader. When the going gets tough, he's looking for the exit.

And that optimistic perspective shows why we can't build a DL.

When you have all of this awesome talent that when you assemble this rush man salad, at the end of the day you are left with players that are not great, because everyone else is just so darn good. It is a working man's cheap way to build a line.
 
Its concerning that, the Eagles who have garbage at corner, didnt even offer Carroll another contract. But we are relying on this dude to be our #1 corner. Awuzie needs to get on the field asap

Fair. Switzer could out produce Hollins.

I think Switzer has too many receivers ahead of him. I doubt he will be too productive, unless injuries start mounting at WR.

He may do something as a returner though. He is an upgrade over Lucky.

I mean over his career. If he's legit he'll eventually have Beasley's role in the offense.

I always loved the fans that would freak out at the suggestion of bringing in a vet DE to supplement the team, screaming he'd be a progress stopper................. but then were OK with bringing in a slug like Carroll at CB.

"Rush man salad" gets a like.

Call it a night. You are ready for the regular season.

@Floaty , you're up.

He did not transform our team. We had healthy competent QB play and so we were good again. It's like people forget what a lonely little 3rd round pick and washed up former 1st rounder did in this offense.

This Elliot suspension is going to leave a lot of egg on people's faces when we win games and run the ball very well.

He stinks.

I know the FO homers will talk about how he's a pure zone CB and fits our system better but he struggled in zone when Philly went to it last year as well.

And Carroll was probably the #1 target of fan venom last year. Probably only Nelson Agholor got more heat from the fans. They hated Carroll.
 
Another question: should Brice Butler be the #2 WR? He's been out of his mind so far. Is Terence Williams even at camp? I've heard very little from him.
