The refs<br />completely gave the game to the Steelers.<br />Secondly, I don't think there was a lot of issue with receivers getting open<br />with Henne, he put up massive numbers for his first year. As for Thigpen,<br />most of those 'wide open' receivers became open AFTER Thigpen was under<br />duress and spinning in and out of tackles. Davone Bess did not *burn* his<br />coverage - the corner stopped running because he thought the play was over<br />when Thigpen got wrapped up. None of us watching that expected Thigpen to<br />make the plays he did.<br />And let's not forget that Thigpen still has more experience than Henne, and<br />that the Dolphins had gone to a 100% running game with White at QB, and when<br />Thigpen came in they went to a 90% passing game all of a sudden. The<br />Steelers D had some breakdowns, and the drudgery of the Eggshell White<br />offense all made Thigpen seem that much more sparkly. In the end he ended<br />up throwing back to back INTs.<br />But still clearly we have two very talented and cool customers at QB, and<br />one who ruined his career by being stubborn and trying to prove he was an<br />NFL QB. This is as much the NFL Network's fault for hyping the crap out of<br />White during the draft lead up. I said it from day one, as in December<br />2008, that Pat White could not be a successful NFL QB, that he couldn't<br />throw the ball, and that his numbers were inflated due to playing in a very<br />weak division (the Big East SUCKED up until 2008) and having Steve Slaton<br />and a great offensive line and playing in an option offense. And I have<br />spent the last 6 months banging on and on about how bad of a draft pick this<br />was and how he'd be the biggest bust in NFL history, etc.<br />I hope he recovers well and finds a way to play football on some level, but<br />I don't want him on the Miami Dolphins even as a clipboard holder. And the<br />idea that he was above Thigpen on the depth chart and above Henne before<br />that has always been a launching point for why I lost confidence in the<br />coaching staff and Bill Parcells this season. If they don't have a VERY<br />successful 2010, I'll suggest replacing him with someone off the street.Tinshakernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1624420118244025974.post-16215195302008899652010-01-04T07:08:48.000-08:002010-01-04T07:08:48.000-08:00Whoa Houston does not play a 3-4, are you loco?
Ry...Whoa Houston does not play a 3-4, are you loco?<br />Ryans is the MLB (granted he IS still the best in the FA class who is under<br />30), but he will not be an UFA if it remains an uncapped year. He is in the<br />same boat as Ronnie Brown, Anthony Fasano, and 200 other NFL players who<br />were scheduled to become unrestricted free agents in 2010.<br />Still, he has not be resigned by Houston yet, and remains an option. There<br />are several good options for stopgap players, i.e. 30 year old guys, but the<br />draft is especially thin at this position (I *struggled* to complete a top<br />ten list for ILB).<br />One thing is clear from the two games that Crowder missed - he may not be a<br />big playmaker, but he *does* tackle the running back even if it is a few<br />yards downfield, better than whiffing all together. Ayodele and Torbor are<br />both very inconsistent, and lean towards subpar more times than not.Tinshakernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1624420118244025974.post-9536043263552553352010-01-04T06:37:53.000-08:002010-01-04T06:37:53.000-08:00What concerned me the most from yesterday's ga...What concerned me the most from yesterday's game is this. Why could our WR not get open all year with Henne back at QB but plug Thigpen in and suddenly they are all open (well except Ginn who was double covered on that pick!!) Is Henne just that bad at reading his progressions? <br /><br />We did FINALLY learn something.....Pat White is NOT an NFL caliber QB and is way to small and frail to play in this league. Wasted pick. QB who can't throw the ball!! Hopefully we can move him in the off season with Girbril and Ginn for a 5th rounder!!Rockphinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1624420118244025974.post-4775765905570274482010-01-03T19:41:27.000-08:002010-01-03T19:41:27.000-08:00It'd be nice to land Houston's (from a 3-4...It'd be nice to land Houston's (from a 3-4 D) o10 FA ILB DeMeco Ryans 6-1,250,25yrsold!!!<br />I wanted him from his draft class!!! <br /><br />@ a quick glance,I don't see many HIGHLY DESIRABLE ILBs in o10's FA!!<br /><br />@OLB,I wonder IF ROTH completly burned the bridge??
