Dolphins Fall Hard To Patriots

Turnovers and special teams was the reason the Dolphins got smacked up by the Patriots on Monday night here in Miami. The Dolphins gave up 28 points on turnovers and special teams. The night was almost unbearable to watch for Fins fans. Miami started hot at 2-0 with a big win. Now at 2-2, we have lost two weeks in a row to division rivals. It stings, it hurts, and it puts us a game and half back in our division only a quarter of the way through the season.

Dolphins fired the special teams coordinator this morning immediately after last night's game. Two weeks in a row we have given up blocks on special teams. The Dolphins will need to focus on going 4-1 at least over the next five games to put themselves in good shape for the final half of the season.

Patrick Cobbs Injures Hamstring

Patrick Cobbs has injured his hamstring and the team is not certain on his return date. The Phins just lost Kory Sheets with an Achilles injury last week and now Cobbs goes down with a hammy injury. Sheets and Cobbs were the leading contenders to replace Tedd Ginn Jr. for the kick returner position.

John Jerry Inks Deal With Dolphins

3rd round pick John Jerry has made it official with the Dolphins, he is now signed and ready to do work. Jerry is a 6-foot-5 , 328 pound guard and tackle who the Dolphins hope will make a big impact. Jerry comes out of Ole Miss where he blocked for 3 different 1,000 yard rushers. Jerry was a two time All SEC honoree.

The Dolphins two top picks are still unsigned as we fast approach August. Jared Odrick and Koa Misi are still in talks to close their deals up. None of the First round draft picks this year in the NFL have signed with their respective teams as of yet.

One Bulldog Signs, Another Retires: Reshad Jones & Jason Ferguson

Reshad Jones and Jason Ferguson both hail from the Georgia Bulldogs. One of them is on the way into Dolphins camp, and another is leaving.

The Miami Dolphins got Reshad Jones to sign on the dotted line this week. Jones is 6 foot 1 and a 214 pound safety who comes from Georgia. He had 206 tackles, 129 of which were solo. He also had 11 interceptions for 174 yards.

Defensive tackle Jason Ferguson retires after 13 season in the NFl. He played his last two season with the Miami Dolphins. He was drafted by the NY Jets in 1997.

CBS Touts Jake Long As a Top 30 Player In NFL

Pete Prisco of CBS sports has ranked his top 50 players in the NBA. Jake Long landed at number 29 on the list placing him the league's top 30 standout players. Long should be a great asset for the Fins this year once again. The competition will begin to heat up for the O-line positions as the season nears.

Cory Proctor and John Jerry will battle it out in the guard spot, along with Donald Thomas and Richie Incognito. Jake Grove and Joe Berger will battle for center. Nate Garner is coming off foot surgery and we hope he will be back in top shape as well.

We will follow up on the Offensive line soon when practices begin again.

RB Breakdown - How The Fins Will Carry The Ball This Year

Ricky and Ronnie are the most well known,but the Dolphins also have Patrick Cobb, Lousaka Polite,Lex Hillard, Kory Sheets, and Tristan Davis. Ronnie Brown is coming off an injury last year and Ricky Williams could potentially play his last year in the NFL after this season. Lousaka Polite had the third most carries last season, but didn't play a gigantic role in 2009. Polite's numbers were 37 attempts for 123 yards or 3.32 yards per carry. This year we may see Polite get a little more action as the Dolphins will be trying new running schemes. We are looking for Ricky and Ronnie to be stellar and we don't think that's too much to ask.
