Dolphins OLB Joey Porter excuse for his poor showings

[Gryphon]

Dolphins OLB Joey Porter admits he's not fully recovered from arthroscopic knee surgery underwent during training camp.

Miami's run defense is ranked 31st in the NFL; a far cry from last year's stout unit. Coordinator Dom Capers says Porter's physical limitations are holding back his ability to scheme. Porter has five tackles through two games.

Then don't step on the field until you are ready--why hurt the team?

I want TNew to stay out until he is ready for these same reasons.

Maybe he should spent more time working his knee instead of his mouth

The quotes rolling around inside Porter's mind which didn't get published...

Reporter: So, Joey, how does your knee feel right now?

Porter: I'm in constant pain whenever I try to push off it or move laterally. It's like 100 Marion Barbers are running around in there, banging on the inside of my knee 24/7. I'm in agony, man. HEY, BARBER! YOU'RE KILLING ME! STOP RUNNING SO HARD IN THERE!!! AAAAAGGGGHHHHH!

Porter, get some rest. The Dolphins won't miss you. The Steelers have done quite well without you. And get out the popcorn and watch some video of Marion the Barbarian stuffing your tough-guy Zach Thomas on a blitz up the middle. Thomas was so demoralized/stunned by that hit that by the end of the 4th quarter Barber ran right by him for a TD. Zach was tripping over himself on purpose so he wouldn't have to take another hit by Barber.

We all know the only thing hurting is his ego.


He talked the talk but couldnt/didnt walk the walk.

The guy is trash... ripping off MB's helmet the way he did.
