Yeah, it is old. Please move on. Ginn needs to be returning all kicks. Bess is quick but Ginn is deadly with his speed. Ginn needs to be the primary return guy.

Can Someone anyone Ask Coach If he watched the game film of Teddy's returns last year or college. Also ask him if it more important to make the first guy miss or the TEN other guys. I mean I like Bess but not back there he can make a guy or two miss great but after that half the punt team can run him down with the exception of the punter and the guys playing on the line. Not a recipe for success he MIGHT have a handful of decent returns but Doubt he scores unless every one is pancaked which is Highly unlikely

This guy is a bust. Too afraid to take a hit and dances around too much on returns. Just another wasted 1st rounder.

Thank you Cam.

2nd on the team in receptions translates to 60 for the year. Important conversion late against SD.
Equivelent to a sophomore in college, all the bashers will shut up for 15 seconds when he takes one to the house on a return.

Im afraid Ted Ginn is never going to get any respect around here. Unless Ginn breaks it for a TD every time he touches the ball there will always be people calling him a bust. Im happy that at least he catches everything that comes his way, and will enjoy watching him develop, that where the YAC will start to come. Even Pennington said hes starting to get off the line better, and his routs are becoming more precise. I say he will do just fine for us, just give him a chance people, its only his 2nd year...GO PHINS!!!

Im afraid Bess is going to bet hurt returning balls. He is making 3 or 4 catches a game.

J/K But man our First rounder is having difficulty stay up with our walk on's.

Ginn needs to make the most of his special teams ability that got him picked. Not let the ball hit the ground. Long kicks should help a "FAST" guy.

I've seen Ted Ginn catch in traffic, in the middle of the field. That doesn't equate to him being scared to get hit. I think its what was said here, his awareness. He was probably thinking of another TD, not running out the clock.

I say put Ginn in as the KR, and keep Bess as the PR.

It's not Ginn's fault that he is not Brady Quinn, and be honest, would we be any better had we taken Quinn ? We know Ted can run, what he needs to do is toughen up.

This has been a hotly contested Presidential election. Perhaps you are an undecided voter. Perhaps you just aren’t sure who you want to lead the country through this very difficult time. Perhaps you’re thinking to yourself,“I just won’t know how to vote until I hear from the backup quarterback and left tackle for one of the NFL’s most absymal teams.” Well, you’re in luck. For Brady Quinn, along with Joe Thomas, has gotten all soaped up and “come out” as a John McCain supporter.

This surprised me, because I figured John McCain’s conservative views conflicted with Brady, um, choice of lifestyle. Then again, I can see Quinn’s endorsement appealing to crucial swing voters. And by “swing voters,” I mean local steel mill workers who tell their wives they’re going bowling, only to swing by a shirtless rave with five or six of their closest “buddies.”

What’s driving Quinn’s endorsement? Well,“Let’s just say when Brady hears ‘Joe-Six Pack,’ he doesn’t think of beer.” Indeed. Last time Brady was presented with a vagina, he said,“Thanks, but no thanks.”

The problem is we drafted a "college Punt returner" with the 9th overall pick. Devin Hester , easily the NFL's greatest special teams player of all time didn't go until the 2nd. There was no reason to draft Ginn. I'm not a Quinn supporter but we should have moved down if we were not going to draft him.

Lets face it, we are Dolphins fans and we know how to pick a bust 90% of the time. Before Brown our last good 1st rounder was Richmond Webb.

The expectations are if you are picked in the 1st you should be better than someone picked in the 2nd. Therefore I will always compare Ginn with Hester and so far it ain't looking so good.

It's been addressed. Now let's hope he pays attention and begins to play with a little more confidence and aggression.
As for the fine to Ronnie Brown, seems I just saw a blog here recently looking for what type of celebration should take place. I didn't offer any suggestions. Although if a player were to find a young kid in the stands and hand him or her the ball, The kid and his or her family would never forget the moment. And if Goodell were to fine a gesture like that, I would be first to sign a petition to have him fired. I do think the NFL is going to far regarding the celebration. The fans pay alot of money to go to the game and have some fun.

you must be out on work release , I hope the treatment helps and have not heard such a load of horse manure from a demented and delusional fellow since Charles Manson, back on topic Ginn is in a show me position with Sparano remember he was drafted by a prior staff, and these coaches seem content to have prior coaches picks not flourish and command the spotlight remember the bias agaist Ronnie Brown till he busted several consec 100 yd games Ted Ginn just needs a liitle time to prove his stuff, PS HOW MANY GAMES HAS BRADY QUIN PLAYED, STARTED, WON If ted Ginn isnt a talented guy he would be gone Look for a brakout game coming up , then the bandwagon will start and all you naysayers shut the fut up.

Midwestern factory workers and guys who can bench press 225 over 25 reps (like Quinn) are rarely gay. Myself, I worked in a Midwestern factory to pay for my college and I can also bench 225 over 25 reps, and I'm not gay neither.

Now, amongst the Democrat voters here in lispy, South Beachie South Florida, you will find plenty of gayness.

You're right on the money.
