Madden 25: The Fishies from Miami

[SebsterDos]

BREAKING

Sebi Miller, the long time coach at Ohio State University was just hired by the Miami Dolphins to replace their coach, Joe Philbin, who was recently fired in the coaching turmoil. Miller looks to bring his explosive Pistol offense, and hard-hitting 4-3 defense to South Beach. It has always been his dream to coach in the NFL, and his dad grew up being a Dolphin's fan, so naturally that was passed on to him, he is only at the young age of 35, so it will be exciting to see what he can do in the big leagues. He was extremely successful at the high school and then college level, and hopes to bring that success into the National Football League. Everyone, please welcome Sebi Miller.

***When I get a chance, I will post some of the tweets that the "experts" are tweeting about the Dolphins, and some of the stories/headlines. If there is a username before what I post, that means it was a tweet from that person, if not, then it was a story/headline. This will probably not happen every week.***

Preseason Game 1 - Jacksonville Jaguars

The Jaguars went up 10-0 early in the game, but the Dolphins began their comeback. Alas, it was never meant to happen when the final score read 13-20 and the Dolphins got their first preseason loss. Hopefully this team will find their Identity in practice with the help of their new coach, and mark down a W for preseason week 2.

Preseason Game 2 - Houston Texans

It was a close one in Houston as the home fans got to witness a nail biter, a good game right down to the end. While the Miami Dolphins high-powered run attack could not seem to be stopped, the defense was a bit shaky and in the end, after a costly roughing the passer penalty, gave up the final touchdown. The final score for this one, 20-21, Miami loses again, now 0-2. We may begin to see some changes to this defense now that they have lost two games in a row to opponents they believed were beatable.

Preseason Game 3 - Tampa Bay Buccaneers

The Dolphins finally secured their first victory of the preseason this week, with all of their new players. Among those whose impact will be missed are Tyson Clabo and Cameron Wake, but the new players performed wonderfully. Miami won the game on a last second field goal after a great 2 minute drill performed by Tyrod Taylor with the help of Lamar Miller. The Dolphins had another fantastic running game and the passing game is starting to come along.
