Welcome to Pressure Point by Craig Davis, commentary and analysis from a longtime observer and reporter of the South Florida sports scene and its teams. Jack McKeon had a saying he repeated often during his second tour as manager of the Marlins in 2011: “The worm will turn.” Ol’ Trade Jack was betting that the […]
Welcome to Pressure Point by Craig Davis, commentary and analysis from a longtime observer and reporter of the South Florida sports scene and its teams. MIAMI GARDENS – The most confusing of Dolphins seasons reached a new level of mystifying Sunday. They not only pulled off the cleverest trick play of the year, the left-for-dead […]
The most significant development of the weekend for the Dolphins occurred far from Hard Rock Stadium. Matter of fact, nothing was gained in the desultory 37-20 loss to the Bills on Sunday, not even in relation to next year’s draft. At 2-8, the Dolphins remain positioned to pick fourth behind the Bengals, Redskins and Giants. […]
It’s OK, Dolphins fans, to take a much-needed victory lap. And a brief break from fixating on next year’s draft. Everyone’s psyche in South Florida needed that 26-18 win against the New York Jets, perhaps as much as the Dolphins can use the first overall pick in 2020. No matter how much one may have […]
DAVIE — Preston Williams’ expression immediately brightened Monday at the mention of veteran quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick’s hell-bent dash to the end zone the previous day in Buffalo. Fitzpatrick capped his 11-yard touchdown run by lowering his right shoulder and plowing into the final defender to cross the goal line. “We believe in Fitz. We love Fitz,” said […]
After committing an abomination to the game of football for most of this season, the ragtag Dolphins turned in a surprisingly entertaining effort Sunday at Buffalo. The 31-21 loss was Miami’s best performance against a team with a winning record. By staying in the game until the Bills sealed it in the final two minutes […]
MIAMI GARDENS Whew, that was close. Ryan Fitzpatrick nearly deep-sized the #TankForTua campaign with some fourth-quarter FitzMagic on Sunday. There is no denying the overriding reality of this Dolphins season. A team that was constructed only to win in next year’s draft by losing on the field nearly mucked it up and pulled off an […]
Google “worst teams NFL” and the Dolphins are the poster child for ignominy. Peruse any power ranking you choose and Miami’s Bag Heads are DFL — Dead Freakin’ Last. That’s the model of consistency, an objective every coach preaches, though not in this category. In this case, with the objective being to win (by losing) […]
No team got a quicker start on this NHL season than the Florida Panthers. The sticks and pads were barely put away after a disappointing 2018-19 campaign when the Panthers reeled in the best available coach, a three-time Stanley Cup winner at that. The day the summer signing period started they rolled out a load […]
MIAMI GARDENS – It must have been surreal for Josh Rosen. For a while Sunday, he actually had time to look for a receiver and throw without someone nasty in his face trying to crush him. That was a rarity for him last year as a rookie with the Arizona Cardinals and previously this season […]
