Miami Dolphins Week 8 Game Ball

Try again next week.

But he usually plays well, I don’t think his play was anything special compared to his high level of play in every game. I would rather the ball go to reggie bush. Bush took over when Moore was struggling and has made the loss of henne less painful. He was able to take over for Daniel Thomas well and lookedlike the HB he was drafted to become, which is something similar to CJ2K. Even thoug Pouncey played well, it was reggie’s performance that really stood out to me.

Pouncey allowed a sack and 2 QB hits. He was actually the lowest rated offensive lineman for Miami on Sunday.

And I didn’t think Pouncey had all that great of a game. He was beat a few times. How does Bush not get the ball on this one? The second 100 yard rushing performance of his career is very significant. I am the first one to say that a RB cannot do anything without the big dogs up front opening holes for him, but I think that Bush really played well inside for the first time this year and possible for the first time in many years.

and told him to throw it away. Devlin throw it out of the practices facility and into a lake near. I think we should do that too, but because of the sponsor, i guess we cannt.

I also thought Jimmy Wilson did a great job as I recall.

Pouncy was AVERAGE AGAIN… he was the 15th overall draft pick….that’s very high for a Center – and I just expect more…Our WHOLE OL just plain stinks this year….Pouncy is not to blame for it but he dosent deserve much credit either, for his middle of the road ranking and performance…… I don’t understand this love affair with pouncy (sounds like the name of some little girls kitten) He gave up a sack and was not that great IMO.
also – His PFF rating fell from 4th to 15th in the NFL …so now he is the 15th best Center in the NFL ? yea…. this is why OL is not as important as the SKILL POSITIONS QB, WR, RB…… REGGIE BUSH got most of his yards after the contact, bouncing off tacklers and using his speed….Bush played with fire and passion – Slaton stole his TD as well…when inserted at the goal line. bush deserves this so much more…6.9 yds per carry ? also – BUSH has been more durable than Dan thomas….. speed is what this lame team needs, and at least Bush provides that…

They at least looked good on the field.

as much as I like Mike Pouncey and as well as i think he has played this sason I thought for weeks that his PFF ranking was overrated.He is a good young player, and he will probably be a great player in the NFL, but he struggles with the things that one would expect a young center to struggle with. Obviously Center in the NFL is a brutal position to play both physically and mentally. He still doesnt make all the pre-snap reads that a Center in the NFL is responsible for and as a result the line suffers. Strictly from a physical standpoint he is a phenom. He is big, strong and athletic and he can make all the blocks whether they are zone blocking or man schemes. However he does still struggle fundamentally (especially on the second level where he has missed multiple assignments on screens) and his vision has to improve. Like John Jerry he will occasionally get himself positioned off balance and too far forward which exposes him to the athleticism of NFL defensive lineman. Like John Jerry (although better than Jerry)I think he is a better run blocker than he is a pass blocker as he is deadly at the point of attack. Pass blocking is a different skill set and Pouncey still needs to improve in this area (as is to be expected). His vison needs to improve, his footwork and body positioning and he needs to improve with the correct protection calls.
