Before the NFL offseason creeps into its quietest season, we need to do one more check in with the Miami Dolphins' roster to see where the team could still plausibly be strengthened by bringing in additional free agent help. Aaron and Josh look around and determine which position groups need to most help and who might be candidates to sign with Miami ahead of the start of training camp later this summer.

With the 2025 NFL Draft in the books for nearly a week, now seems like the perfect time for Aaron and Josh to get together and share their lukewarm takes about the Miami Dolphins' 2025 draft and UDFA classes. Do they like the picks the Dolphins made? Do they like the moves the Dolphins made to acquire them? How are things positioned right now? Aaron and Josh are back with these thoughts and a lot more on another fun episode of THE SAME OLD DOLPHINS SHOW at DolphinsTalk.com! And be sure to stick ...

If there was any doubt that this Miami Dolphins offseason marked a transition from a team trying to compete for championships RIGHT NOW to a team trying to rebuild for the future, the news that the Dolphins and Jalen Ramsey are working together to find a new team for the future Hall of Famer should remove it. Chris Grier gave a tepid press conference earlier this week, trying desperately to spin the current situation, but it is unlikely that anyone is buying. The Dolphins' offseason is rapidly g...

The 2025 NFL Draft continues to get closer and closer and one of the consensus views of this year's draft class is that while it's not super top heavy, there is A LOT of value to be found on Day Two of the draft. With that in mind, Aaron and Josh are back to discuss how they think the Dolphins should approach the second of the 2025 draft's three days. But first they have to discuss the seemingly endless off-field drama involving Tyreek Hill, which resurfaced this week following a domestic disput...

As the dust begins to settle from the first wave of NFL free agency, a clearer picture begins to emerge in terms of what the Miami Dolphins' 2025 offseason plans are. As is typical, they avoided splashing out big money on big names and opted for the familiar refrain of looking for a bargain on high-upside players with injury histories. They also decided to bring some players on expiring deals back Some appear to be solid moves, but some have left Dolphins fans scratching their heads. Aaron and J...

It's just about time to kickoff the new NFL league year! The underwear olympics are underway at the Scouting Combine in Indianapolis and even though the legal tampering window hasn't opened yet, you can bet your bottom dollar that some "illegal" tampering is happening at an incredible rate. Aaron and Josh are back to check in on the Dolphins' offseason so far and to look ahead to the upcoming start of free agency. Who SHOULD the Dolphins sign? Who WILL the Dolphins sign?

With the 2024 season done and dusted, attention now turns to the Dolphins' roster and what adjustments are needed before the 2025 season begins. The first step of that process is an evaluation of the current roster, including a look at those players who are on expiring contracts. Who should be re-signed? Who should be extended? Who should be moved on from Aaron and Josh are back to look at all of this plus the firings of Danny Crossman and Wes Welker on another fun episode of THE SAME OLD DOLPHI...

What an absolute circus of clown shoes. The Miami Dolphins' 2024 season came to a close in appropriately embarrassing fashion on Sunday: by allowing Aaron Rodgers to look like his former self and pass all over them. Tyler Huntley looked inept and out of his depth. Mike McDaniel did too. It was just gross. And then, with Dolphins fans optimistic that changes would be made in the organization, Stephen Ross put out a statement that GM Chris Grier and Head Coach Mike McDaniel would lead the Miami Do...

The Miami Dolphins did what they needed to do to keep their slim playoff hopes on life support on Sunday by defeating the Cleveland Browns 20-3. Tyler Huntley demonstrated an improved comfort with the team's offense and played better than in his previous appearances, leading the team in rushing along the way. Tyreek Hill had a bounce back game and Jonnu Smith equaled the franchise record for touchdowns in a single season by a tight end. The defense largely performed as you would expect them to a...

It's a Festivus celebration! The Miami Dolphins defeated the San Francisco 49ers 29-17, keeping their very faint playoff hopes alive for at least another seven days. It was one of the most complete wins of the season for the Dolphins, with the offense, defense, and special teams each contributing. But does a home victory over a mediocre 49ers actually change any of the existing narratives or future outlook for this team?

Because there are still three Miami Dolphins football games left and we might as well enjoy them now before they're gone! Kyle Shanahan, Brock Purdy, and the San Francisco 49ers are coming to town for a game that doesn't mean nearly as much as we might have thought or hoped earlier in the year. Regardless, it's going to happen and Jim Nantz and Tony Romo are coming for the big CBS broadcast as well. Both teams ...

In a development that should shock absolutely nobody, the Miami Dolphins FAILED to win a road game in December against a playoff-bound opponent. And the blame can be pointed at all the usual suspects. Their $230M franchise quarterback saved arguably his worst performance of the season for one of the biggest games. The WR1 whom the Dolphins traded premium draft capital to acquire once again disappeared, running incorrect routes and dropping passes. The shorthanded offensive line, which we were as...

Most Dolphins fans found themselves hoping for a relatively easy Sunday afternoon where they'd see their team smash the struggling New York Jets. After all, the Jets were beat up, out of sorts, and playing out the string of an absolutely catastrophic failure of a season. What they got instead was a hard-fought, back-and-forth football game that required some late-game heroics (and some fortunately timed game mismanagement) for the Dolphins to eventually make it over the finish line with a 32-26 ...

After a disappointing performance on Thanksgiving Night, the Miami Dolphins will be back in action on Sunday, taking on the team that has been a three ring circus wrapped in a tin foil hat and tossed into a dumpster fire: the Stinkin' New York Jets. With their own season teetering on the edge of disaster, the Dolphins need a big bounce back performance. Can they get a more consistent performance from their defensive unit? Can some of the younger players on the roster continue to develop? Can the...

Stop us if you've heard this one before: the Miami Dolphins, generating momentum with victories over bad and mediocre teams, had a chance to prove themselves a legitimate contender by taking on a quality opponent on the road in the winter on national television. Then, as if on cue, the Dolphins fell flat on their faces, looking confused and unprepared in the process. While they eventually found their footing, the damage was done and the Dolphins lost to the Green Bay Packers 30-17. So...now what...

The Miami Dolphins CRUISED to victory over the New England Patriots on Sunday. It was the first time all season and perhaps since last November that things felt "easy" for the Dolphins, leaping out to a 31-0 lead early in the third quarter. From there, it felt like the Dolphins went into cruise control mode and things got a little sloppy on both side of the ball, but the Dolphins did what they needed to go and finished off a 34-15 win. The Dolphins now find themselves on a three-game winning str...

It seems like it was in another lifetime when the Dolphins defeated the Patriots in Foxboro with Snoop Huntley leading the offense against Jacoby Brissett. Since then, the Dolphins have gotten Tua Tagovailoa back and their offense is rounding into form. The team is threatening to become a player in the race for the AFC playoffs. Meanwhile, the Patriots have moved on from Brissett and allowed their rookie QB Drake Maye to take the helm of the offense. Maye looks promising, but still has some matu...

The Miami Dolphins' offense was practically unstoppable as the Dolphins defeated the Las Vegas Raiders 34-19 on Sunday. Scoring on ever possession (except the very end of the first half), the team's offensive evolution took center stage. Not only did they take what the Raiders gave them, but Tua Tagovailoa was able to scramble and create plays off-schedule, a pair of characteristics that have been missing. Jonnu Smith had a career day. De'Von Achane continued to do De'Von Achane things. Odell Be...

After defeating the Rams on Monday Night Football, the Dolphins return home this week to take on the lowly Las Vegas Raiders, who come into the game on a five game losing streak, making them the coldest team in the NFL. Internally, Dolphins players and staff seem to believe that the return of Tua Tagovailoa has has a positive impact and that it is not beyond them to make a run at the playoffs, despite their 3-6 record. If that is really the case, it would seem that an absolute beatdown on the le...

The Miami Dolphins flew across the country in need of a big win to attempt to right a sinking ship. They got perhaps their best defensive performance of the season and another positive showing from the offense (though not without some warts).

Can the Dolphins pickup a west coast win for the second straight year? Aaron and Josh are back to discuss the game on another fun episode of THE SAME OLD DOLPHINS SHOW at DolphinsTalk.com!

The Miami Dolphins played what was easily their best game of the 2024 season on Sunday in Buffalo. In fact, you could argue that it was the best game they've played in two and a half seasons under Mike McDaniel. It wasn't good enough. Despite of an excellent performance from Tua Tagovailoa and the Dolphins offense, the team fell short 30-27, losing on a 61-yard field goal in the game's dying seconds. The shorthanded defense again fell short, failing to stop Buffalo's offense from scoring in thei...

After a heartbreaking last-second loss to Arizona in Tua Tagovailoa's return in Week 8, almost all hope of salvaging the 2024 Miami Dolphins season went out the window. Now, the last vestiges of hope ride on Miami going into Buffalo and defeating the Bills on the road. To say optimism is low would be an understatement.

The Miami Dolphins received a big lift on Sunday as Tua Tagovailoa returned to the field. The Dolphins' offense immediately looked cohesive and functional. They moved the ball well in the air and on the ground, much like the famous song suggests. However, as has been demonstrated time and again, they are not a well-coached team. Sloppy mistakes stunted promising drives. The team's $200 million dollar quarterback fumbled a snap that hit him in the hands, resulting in a safety. And the defense, wh...
