eball Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 It struck me as a bit odd yesterday that the Fish defenders seemed to be very vocal and demonstrative, even after routine plays. They were jawing non-stop, flexing their muscles, and it was kind of funny since the Bills pretty much had their way with them. Am I alone in noticing that?
Happy Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 They don't have anything to be chatty or jawing about. They're scrappy, but they still suck. There are much bigger fish to fry coming up, so not worried about Miami's defense. 1

Coaching.. that’s how Flores wants his D to be, he wants them edgy and hard even if they don’t play wel he wants them pushing to the end.. he is trying change a culture down there.. doing a pretty good job with some pretty bad players 2
MAJBobby Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 (edited) It does seem this team (no matter how devoid in talent) are buying in and playing hard for Flores, so that is a good sign in terms of coaching down in MIA. MIA recent history is teams that are checked out later in the season when they have a bad record, Flores seems to have them still playing hard in a very easy season for them to check out in.

Ethan in Cleveland Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 They were playing and hitting hard right to the whistle and our guys were pushing right to the whistle and beyond - Feliciano and Knox in a few early series. These guys know everything is on tape and they are playing for jobs too 1
Coach Tuesday Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 They're just trying to psyche themselves up, I'm ok with it. I kinda like this year's Dolphins squad. And Fitz is playing some of his best football for them.
Warcodered Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 (edited) I guess there were a few moments where they were getting into it a bit, but definitely not chippy this was honestly the best behaved I've seen them in the last two years. Wilkins managed to not get ejected for taking a swing at someone on the first series. Edited November 18, 2019 by Warcodered
apuszczalowski Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 I noticed they were getting into it with Singleterry after lost of his runs. I don't know if the plan was to try and intimidate him more, maybe because of his size, but they did appear to be trying to push him around and get in his head.
wppete Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 #47 on the defense wouldn't shut up. He really didn't do anything anyway all game. Loud mouth.

But I'd imagine this has happened to Singletary since HS and it's unlikely to effect him. 1 hour ago, MAJBobby said: It does seem this team (no matter how devoid in talent) are buying in and playing hard for Flores, so that is a good sign in terms of coaching down in MIA.

They seem to be playing better as the season goes on. Flores has done a good job with a team that is missing talent in key areas.

I thought Kiko was still out there.
GoBills808 Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 They're playing hard for Flores and I don't think they were very happy w/how businesslike the Bills handled them Sunday. I didn't see much emotion after Bills TDs, looked to me like they were just there to take home the W and I think that attitude rubbed Fins the wrong way. I thought it was great.
r00tabaga Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 #15 WR had two late, pretty routine catches & celebrated both times like he just made the play of the game. Lol #scoreboard 1
CommonCents Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 (edited) I like Tre’s approach better, smacked em then lined up and then smacked them again. Edited November 18, 2019 by CommonCents

Lol #scoreboard I think one went for a first down so naturally that calls for a big celebration, especially when you're down by 17. I've always thought that players who celebrate in those situations are lame. But yeah, Flores seems to have most of his guys playing hard. #47 on defense was a chode, made like one TFL and just kept flexing, like, shaddap, sit down. This is a team full of low-tier players trying to put good performances on tape so they can make it either with Miami or somewhere else. This is why Fitz is a perfect guy to have in their current situation. Dude's a gamer, he doesn't care what the record is, he doesn't care who he's playing, he's gonna ball out as best he can every time. On top of that he's smart as heck, works hard, and is just an all-around good dude to have on a team. Those young players will hopefully see that and pick up on his habits and such. 1

They are terrible but I guess they play hard. I knew like 2 of their defensive players.
