There’s only so long the dam can hold. Right, Miami? We’ve now seen that two straight weeks with the Miami Dolphins, as they were competitive in Sunday’s first half against the depleted Los Angeles Chargers — just as they were frisky in last Sunday’s first half in Dallas against the Cowboys — only to collapse […]
If you ask Erik Spoelstra, he’ll tell you he could have been fired three times. At least three times. Once when the Miami Heat were recruiting LeBron James and Chris Bosh, after Spoelstra had taken his first two Heat teams to the playoffs — but first round exits. If James had demanded Pat Riley or […]
The Dolphins are making progress, at least in one way: they are losing by less touchdowns. Yes, they’re an enormous underdog again Sunday, after losing their first three games by a historically lopsided combined score by a 133-16, scoring 10 fewer points in three contests than Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has scored in any one […]
Everyone wants a piece of Alabama elite quarterback Tua Tagovailoa right now. Simon Clancy, who is a host of our Three Yards Per Carry while also working in England for Gridiron magazine and other outlets, did something that Alabama opponents haven’t done at all this season: He corralled the slippery, skilled signalcaller. Clancy conducted an […]
The Dolphins got only one thing wrong in their diabolical plan for the NFL’s greatest tank: They fired Adam Gase. While I was the first local media member to suggest they dump the so-called quarterback whisperer — about halfway through the Dolphins’ 2018 season — I clearly didn’t account for what’s happened now. Gase, hired […]
What is it about this field and the Hurricanes? After the Miami Dolphins lost their first two games at Hard Rock Stadium by a combined 102-10, the Miami Hurricanes — the team that isn’t tanking — couldn’t possibly do anything that would be more disappointing, right? Well…. The Hurricanes needed an interception by Al Blades […]
If you’ve followed the @5ReasonsSports Twitter account — and if not, why the heck not — you know I haven’t been fully on board the tank. Well, I like selling #tankovailoa shirts and tanktops (get yours here!) but I’m not sold on every move the Dolphins are making. They needed a reset, for sure, and […]
By now, you likely know that Dolphins second-year defensive back Minkah Fitzpatrick is available — the only question is how available. I had suggested the Dolphins sit Fitzpatrick on Sunday against the Patriots. After all, if he’s an asset, you don’t want him playing and hurting himself, and losing value. And he was more likely […]
The sample size for these Dolphins is super small…. and the first two opponents were really good. Still, how much more do you need to see? Rather than write another treatise about tanking, one tweet summed up the Miami Dolphins’ situation, having been outscored 102-10, at home, by the Baltimore Ravens and New England Patriots […]
Ever since the Miami Heat began to seriously pursue Jimmy Butler, there’s been a debate about exactly what he is. A star? A superstar? Something in between? The general consensus put him roughly 15th in the NBA, with Butler getting credit for being one of the league’s few true two-way players, along with Kawhi Leonard, […]
