At least we will never have to witness "The Snap" play again. 

 

That wasn't his fault that night.         And it's not his fault today.

 

The player who practiced the snap all week got hurt in the game.     Griff was asked to do it during the game.

 

That should never have happened.     Once the original guy got hurt,  the play should've been called off.

 

Good like to Griff in Miami....

Whalen always worked his tail off & never complained. He wasn't the most gifted WR around, but he always made a few nice plays on special teams. I really admired his whatever the coach needs me to do attitude. 

 

I just want Miami to be a respectable club this year. Griff deserves that. I always try to keep an eye on former Colt players. I will think a good thought for you man. Please Dolphins coaching staff give the grifter a fair shake. He'll give you everything he has & he'll never disappoint the owner either. 

 

If I remember correctly, Whalen was undrafted from Stanford too. This proves he's not afraid of hard work & that he's always willing to earn his roster spot every season too. Talent isn't everything, but a tenacious drive & work ethic sure is. 

 

1 last complement for Griff: I always remember him having nice hands plucking the football out of the air. Tannehill will like that.

I would have sworn the pats would have token him

 

They would have if they did not see Chris Hogan. Chris Hogan of the Bills, when I saw him play, he seemed to always get open, but Tyrod did not see him enough, Brady will.

 

This is like pilfering Welker from the Dolphins type of move. Just watch how Chris Hogan, with his short area quickness, becomes another 50 catch guy in that Patriots offense.

 

This guy was on the Dolphins first, then Bills next, now on the Patriots, so they are mighty familiar with seeing him on the opposite side. I saw this on patriots.com:

    • Hey Everyone,   So, I just caught wind of Goodson's apology letter after dropping that short pass from Minshew against the Texans last season. Here's my humorous take on the situation:   "Dear Fans, Coaches, Teammates, and Supporters,   I'm writing to apologize for buttering up that short pass in the most critical moment against the Texans. Look, I know I'm the backup running back, but hey, I'm usually good for catching those short throws - emphasis on 'usually'. My bad for turning a routine play into a blooper reel moment.   To my teammates, sorry for making you wonder if I was secretly playing for the other team. Next time, I'll practice catching more than just footballs thrown by the water boy.   To the coaches, maybe let's reconsider throwing short passes to guys who have hands that are more slippery than a greased pig at the county fair. Just a suggestion.   And to the fans, thanks for turning my drop into a meme. I promise to work on my catching skills so I can make highlights, not lowlights, next season.   Sincerely, Goodson (aka the running back who should stick to running)"   Okay, maybe I exaggerated a bit, but you get the gist. Let's hope Goodson has been hitting those catching drills hard this offseason!
    • I remember looking for highlights of TJ after we drafted him.  I kept finding videos of him following OJ Howard into the endzone.  Not sure if Howard was his responsibility, but it didn't paint a promising picture.
    • Ballard,   So, yeah, about that whole "bust" thing—I guess the cat's out of the bag. Turns out, I'm more of a popcorn fart than a thunderclap. My bad.   When you drafted me, I thought I was gonna be the Colts' next big thing. You know, sacking quarterbacks, making highlight reels, maybe even getting my face on a cereal box someday. But instead, I've been about as useful as a screen door on a submarine.   I've watched the tapes, Coach. I've seen the memes. They're comparing my NFL career to a hangover—starts off with high hopes, and ends with regret and a lot of Gatorade. And honestly, I get it. I'm like that guest who shows up to a party uninvited and ends up eating all the chips.   So, here's my mea culpa. I apologize for not living up to the hype. For every missed tackle, every missed sack, and that one time I accidentally tackled our own quarterback in practice (sorry, Philip). I'm like the guy who brings a guitar to a party and insists on playing Wonderwall—I'm annoying and not nearly as good as I think I am.   But hey, I'm not giving up. I'm hitting the gym, studying film (mostly bloopers at this point), and practicing my touchdown dance for when pigs finally fly. I promise to work harder and maybe, just maybe, I'll redeem myself and earn my place in the Hall of Mediocrity.   Thanks for believing in me, and letting me live my dream for 4 years straight whilst simultaneously producing nothing for your team. I'll make you proud yet, even if it's just by being the team's MVP of Bust Central, and we aren't talking bronze heads.    Sincerely, Ben "The Bust" Banagous (Not sponsored by Gatorade yet, but a guy can dream)
    • if you scream MODS! in anything I write,  I might get in trouble. hahaha
    • MODS!  This should be enough to force you to bring back the laughing emoji option!   Funny stuff!
