Week 1 Game Impressions: Fins @ Browns
-
Finally was able to watch the game on NFL Game Rewind is this is what I took away from the game;
-Of the three interceptions the only one that I consider Weeden's fault completely is the one intended for Jordan Cameron. It was a horrible pass. Little should have caught his and Benjamin should have at least jumped up for his to fight for it.
-Cousins cost us a lot, especially on the final drive where he got called for holding and false start. His pass protection and run blocking was horrible, he needs to step it up big against the Ravens.
-If Haden and TJ had caught the interceptions they dropped it would have changed the game.
-Weeden needs to make decisions faster. He doesn't have the speed and elusiveness to run around and buy time.
-T-Rich needs to get the ball more. Even in the second half when the Dolphins were buckling down on their run defense he was still able to get positive yards the majority of the time. (Norv has already said he wants to get T-Rich more carries, http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap1000000243103/article/norv-wants-trent-richardson-to-see-20plus-carries)

The first interception was underthrown into double coverage. No way to get that off the quarterback by saying the small receiver (and I think the QB knows he's small) couldn't or didn't save the day somehow.
The Cameron pick was high and behind, as you said. But Chud said the one off Little was Weeden's fault, too, for rocketballing a very short pass. DA did a lot of that, too.

I'm so tired of hearing how he throws the ball hard. You can make an argument for the other two INT's but the one for Little in inexcusable by him. It's the NFL, if it hits you in the hands you catch it. We need to stop defending Little for having crappy hands. Favre made a career of throwing laser beams and his guys caught it just fine.

Chud never blamed the INT on Weeden for throwing too hard! You made that up. He just stated that there were times where the ball could have been thrown softer when asked by a reporter. Weeden was also hit as he threw the long ball to Benjamin so of course it was short. It forced Miami to start at the 1 yd line which was better than a punt anyway. Weeden certainly still had a bad game, but he needs help from the WRs if the offense is going to do anything this year.

The ball to Benji was not short... You made that up!
Ya think just maybe the hard throw to Little was one of the ones Chud was thinking of???

Well it certainly wasn't long. What was it then smartass?

Nice edit. Chud did not single out a particular play. That is my point. You can't put words in his mouth which is what you are trying to do. Chud didn't even bring up throwing the ball too hard it was a reporter.

No problem with the first int except that Gordon was suspended and he probably would have snared it while tiny Benjamin had no chance/desire.

totally agree. The outcome of the int was better than punting.Zombo said:

Outside... And I only came back at you for going off on Shep...

What "edit"???
Chud did not say anything of substance on his own.
Seemed to me that he agreed with the reporter's question's premise.
And since only 3 or 4 of Wheezy's throws were over cooked, odds are the fast ball to Little was in his thoughts.

To me it seemed like Benjamin should have at least made a play for the ball. He had to know that the ball was going to be underthrown but he didn't do anything. No doubt it is Weeden's fault for the underthrow but also Benjamin for not making a play for the ball.

I am tired of people pardoning Little for extremely poor play.
He sucks. Just admit it.
I'm awesome, and I fuck dolphins. Ghoolie 12/2/2012: I have absolutely no skills, training or pride -

The thing I hate about Little more than anything is how arrogant he gets when he actually does make a catch. It's like hey dipshit just do that every time it hits your hands instead of acting like your Jesus when you do your job. If he were on a better team he would have been cut or benched by now, I do know that for sure.

It's because catching a football is so unlike him that, when he does actually do it, he must let the world know.
I'm in favor of moving Gurley to #2 and sending Little to Alberta in return for a package of honey roasted peanuts.

he's still a rookie.
put him on NE right now and he'd be their #1 receiver.
i guarantee it.

100% disagree about Little...
If you remember, even his hot dog BS dropped off last year from his rookie season. Again, I just feel it was Gordon who was much more mature and professional.. and I hope still is.
And for shorter term memory check, just recall his first week 1 catch... a high, hard one on a quick slant that was nonetheless timed well. He made a great snag to begin the game.

How is he still a rookie? He played last year. Just because he changed numbers doesn't mean he gets to start his career over.
After watching that clusterfuck last night...he would definitely be in contention for the #1 receiver job in NE, other than Edelman, the guys they have catch as bad as our guys.
