Talking About Them Dolphins With Jamie Bahamas

Jamie Bahamas was 12-4 in predicting the outcome of Dolphins games in 2020.

His hot streak continues this season as he not only successfully called the game in favor of the Dolphins, but his keys to victory were also spot on.

This week is Miami’s home opener. The Buffalo Bills come to town and the game is scheduled to kickoff at 1:00 PM EDT.

In this special episode of Talking About Them Dolphins, a 2 minute listen, Jamie gives his game pick.

There’s always something to talk about with these Miami Dolphins; and that’s ok, we are here for it. The Dolphins started the season with a close road victory over a Division rival.

Many people were talking about the victory. However, there was another storyline that seemed to grab people’s attention. Miami’s starting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa was sidelined twice in favor of backup Jacoby Brissett in short-yardage scenarios, Some fans cringed as this brought flashbacks of Tua being pulled in favor of Ryan Fitzpatrick last season.

The question on many minds was if this is Tua’s team, then why are they doing this. In this episode of Talking About them Dolphins, Jamie Bahamas explains whether you should be concerned or applaud the move by the Dolphins.

Jamie Bahamas was 12-4 in predicting the outcome of Dolphins games in 2020.

The Dolphins travel to Foxboro to take on the New England Patriots at 4:25 PM EDT to open the 2021 season.

It’s Go Time!

The 2021 NFL Regular Season is about the kick-off. The Miami Dolphins will start the season on the road against a familiar foe. The Dolphins travel up north to Foxboro, Massachusetts to take on the New England Patriots.

This is a rematch of week one last season. The Dolphins fell to the Patriots 21 to 11 in a game with extremely poor quarterback play. Ryan Fitzpatrick had three interceptions to no touchdowns. There are two different starting quarterbacks this time around. Call this the Alabama Quarterback Bowl. The Dolphins are starting the season with Tua Tagovailoa under center. On the other end, the rookie quarterback from Alabama, Mac Jones, gets the nod and will be making his debut.

Who has the edge in this matchup?

In the latest episode of the Talking About Them Dolphins, Jamie Bahamas gives his take on who has the upper hand in this matchup.

Nick Saban has been labeled the “devil” of past Miami Dolphins coaches by fans. Saban earned this title by abandoning the team mid-contract. This was after he was hired to be the next best thing since Don Shula. Not to mention he repeatedly denied the possibility of returning to coach in the NCAA as rumored swirled.

Most have filed this story as ancient history and have tried to move on. Especially with the Dolphins now seemingly in good hands with Brian Flores. Bust just like the devil likes to ruin a good time, Saban decided to open old wounds of hopeful Dolphins fans.

Saban recently said the following, “So, I decided right then when that happened that we don’t have a quarterback in the NFL, we’re not going to win. I’m getting out of here, I’m not staying here. I’m not going to be responsible for this.”

This was in reference to the Dolphins passing on Drew Brees because of a failed physical by the team’s doctors.

After hearing this, for those that were angry at Saban for abandoning the Dolphins; do you forgive him now?

I personally say, absolutely not!

In the latest episode of the Talking About Them Dolphins, Jamie Bahamas shares how he feels about Saban’s newly revealed reasons for leaving.

Xavien Howard returned from a season-ending injury and surgery. Not only did he return, but he performed. Howard led the league in interceptions and finished third in Defensive Player of the Year voting.

Howard had a chip on his shoulder. He watched the Dolphins invest heavily in others at his position. That motivated him to remind them of his value.

Now Howard is making a bet on himself. Howard is early into a lucrative long-term contract but feels he has already outplayed that deal. The Dolphins did not expect to have to be worried about Howard’s contract this year but rather focused on other top players with expiring deals. It seems like Miami is doing just that and as a result, Howard is holding out.

This leaves the Dolphins with three options:

1. Renegotiate Xavien Howard’s contract

2. Trade Xavien Howard

3. Do Nothing and Wait Xavien Howard Out

In the latest episode of the Talking About Them Dolphins, Jamie Bahamas explains which of the three options Miami should go with.

This week some statements were made by Tua Tagovailoa in a press conference that got people talking.

The responses to this were the same as anything else with Tua; very polarizing. Some understood where Tagovailoa was coming from. Meanwhile, others became concerned with his admissions.

Based on all the trade rumors this offseason, one thing is for certain. Not everyone is sold on Tua being the answer at quarterback for the Miami Dolphins.

In the latest episode of Talking About Them Dolphins, we take a listen to Tua’s entire statement and Jamie Bahamas gives his take on the whole situation.

The 2021 NFL schedule has been released. This will be the first year where the NFL has expanded to an 18 game schedule. With every year there are certain quirks to the schedule. Some may prove to be an advantage or disadvantage for teams. With the additional game, there are even more opportunities for special circumstances that teams have to account for.

What is the best and the worst part of the Miami Dolphins schedule? The answer might surprise you. The worst part of the schedule will be a situation where the Division rivals can get ahead of the Dolphins early. Meanwhile, the best part will be a schedule set up to allow the Dolphins to finish better than they did in 2020.

Last season the Dolphins had to travel to Buffalo for a cold-weather “win and you are in” game to close the season. Fortunately, Miami will not have this same scenario this season. But is that the best part?

In the latest episode of Talking About Them Dolphins, Jamie Bahamas breaks down what is the Best and Worst part of the Dolphins’ schedule.

The NFL Schedule is being released this week. In recent years the Dolphins have not had many primetime games. Not surprising, considering that the Dolphins were not expected to be very good the last few seasons. Despite that, these Dolphins have continued to exceed expectations.

Miami was only slated to have one primetime game in 2020. After the Dolphins barely missed out on the playoffs last season, I expect the NFL to showcase them some more this season. Not to mention, the new faces on the team should prove for some intriguing football games.

In the latest episode of Talking About Them Dolphins, Jamie Bahamas lays out which games would be ideal for Primetime.

The 2021 NFL Draft is in the books. Miami Dolphins Fans had a lot to look forward to, with their team having five picks in the first three rounds.
