  1. current odds to make the playoffs stands at 8% (it was at 5% last week). So based off of that, what's next for the Dolphins will be for all of them to start making off-season plans and to practice their golf swings….dont worry, next year will be different rolls eyes

  2. I think.we would all want Chubb back but paying him 20+ million is ridiculous. He wasn't a 20 million dollar player before the injury. They signed Sieler for 10 million. That's a good contracr. What I'm concerned about, other than the 25 holes on the roster, is either Grier comes back or Grier is fired and Ross makes McDaniel the coach and Head of football operations. I can see him doing that. He's a functioning idiot. When you give out game balls to a coach that is 7-8 and hadn't beat a good team in two years, you need psychological assistance. I wonder if Ross gives raises to his employees that lose him.momey in real estate?

  7. This move ALSO signals the organization has given up on the season… Because if they make the playoffs.. We are gonna wish we had Bradley Chub playing opposite of Chop Robinson in Buffalo!!! Again, Grier stupidly overthinking shit, for some nebulous future cap move, at the expense of the team on the field!!!

  11. A broken clock really is right twice a day. Grier/McDaniel actually did the right thing! I was glad I was sitting down when I read Chubb won’t be activated. I almost fainted. The last thing we and he needed was to get injured again by coming back too soon. . Hi Jaelen Phillips! Keep Chubb fresh for next season so he’s ready to hit the ground running for training camp. God knows we are going to need him.

  13. If they didn't give away Brandon Jones and Van ginkle for a bucket of chicken wings this team would be in a way better position to make the playoffs then they are now currently.

  16. Id only want them to trade if it was for like a 3rd otherwise Id would rather they just restructure and keep him for another year. The only player id really like to see traded is HIll

  17. How insulting this excuse is by the McDaniel/Grier regime. Anyone with an ounce of common sense knows they’re holding him out because they’re going to cut him to save over 20 million against the cap next year.

  22. No way we are able to pay and keep Chubbs or Phillips. Just sucks that we could have had one heck of a rotation with our Edges. Grier needs to be fired as soon as we miss the Playoffs!

  23. Did you maybe stop to think that the reason Chubb was not brought into the roster was because Chubb is not physically ready to fulfill all his roles and Ogba can set the edge consistentl

  26. It seems that we have an opportunity for not insurmountable difficulties via the cap. If we can max restructure, it gives us a viable option for next season to insure a good pass rush, without hammering us in the out years. 14 mil for a player of his ceiling is reasonable. I know it’s easier and potentially more satisfying to cut and run, but that’s what we’ve done poorly in the past. It bothers me that Brandon Jones is playing much better in Denver, but that stuff happens everywhere – it just FEELS like it only happens to us! Thanks, Kyle.
