Dolphins Next, What kind of team is this?

The only trade less understandable than KB was Ajayi going to the Eagles for a 4th round pick. 

 

Jay Ajayi was their bell cow. 138 rushes, 2nd best Rusher had 12 carries... They trade him away for a mid round pick. Jay Cutler has thrown for half the yards of Cam Newton. Now Matt Moore is playing...

 

Are they hoping to give up on the season? Get a high draft pick? They are 4-3 and just shed their best offensive chain mover. Should we expect their best on Monday?

If we allow the Dolphins to score even 3 points our defense should be ashamed. Their OL is easily the worst in the league, their QB play is horsesh*t, they had no run game even with Ajayi let alone without, and they don't have a single real threat at WR. Their D isn't terrible but they also aren't all that great either. Suh could be a problem for us, but we handled him back when he was with the Lions and the Donky Kong scandal happened, so I'm not too worried.

Granted, I was confident going into the Bears game, but I think we should be able to handle the Dolphins.

The Bears game was a couple of fluky plays and otherworldly doodoo.  Not gonna happen again at home on MNF.

      Passing yards per game leaders

      I mean it's not even like this was his worst game of the season... I'm not done with him by any means but this feels more the norm for him than the exception:/

      BREAKING: Panthers Announce Four Moves Including LB Trevin Wallace To IR

      By mav1234 · Posted

      I'd give it a C mainly because of Brooks.  If we just didn't have a 2nd I'd argue B to B+ tbh. Brooks was a bad gamble, tho one that could still pay off long term. Yes XL only has 400 yards but... Look who is throwing him the ball. And I think he isn't a "true #1" but he's been able to consistently get open. Hands definitely need to be cleaned up.  But he should end the year with 500-600 yards. Like you said - Sanders looks great.  Get him a better QB / more time with a QB and I think he's gonna impress. We added a couple rotational players on D that have both made plays and show promise for the future from later rounds. So I'd say, Brooks really hurts this drafts grade. It'll be interesting to see how it progresses over the next 3 years. I've overall really liked Morgan's FA acquisitions, so...

      Would you trade Ickey

      Oh he would absolutely flourish. It’s the panthers way. It’s no different with coaches. Sometimes they reach their expiration date, go somewhere else, and find new success.  Similarly to Burns, how long to wait for the light to finally turn on?  Market forces will demand a salary that the panthers can not responsibly match. Sliding him to guard will fit his skill set better, but he has played LT for 3 years. He will receive offers from other teams wanting to pay him LT money.  At guard, he won’t start with what they have paid Hunt and Lewis. Center then?? Dunno. Maybe? He will become a backup by default once they draft their stud LT. I doubt Dan just stands pat. That’s not his MO.  So where does this put him? Can you match what other teams will offer for a backup LT/guard? Do you dish out franchise LT $ on a guy who still needs significant improvement in pass protection. This team will be DOA in the playoffs with the very first team who has a formidable speed rusher. What if he has hit his ceiling in pass protection already and they sign him long term? It’s a big gamble either way.
