Some of the typical reactions include:

-Fire the coach.

-Somebody needs to be cut or traded.

-The coach needs to start yelling more.

-Bench the QB.

-The players should be running an insane amount of laps after practice.

-Why aren't we going a certain free agent that's available?

-Why didn't we draft a certain player?

-Why did we draft a certain player?

-The season is over.

-We're the laughingstock of the entire league.

-Ex-players and coaches are laughing at us.

-Snyder needs to sell the team.

-If you're not criticizing the team you don't know what's going on.

-We're not making the playoffs.

-We're going to have the 1st pick in the draft.

Did I miss anything? Feel free to add your own.

Well there was this one from this thread..

Also:
-This won't happen under Bill Cowher next year

-Cerrato needs to be fired and we need a real GM

-If Patrick Ramsey was only given a fair chance we wouldn't be wondering if Campbell can be our QB

-Collins won 4 games in '07 and should be the starter

-Why don't we bring back Lavar Arrington


I didn't see the game, I'll watch the replay on NFL-N at 1pm but I doubt that, as seems to be the prevailing notion on here, that we are destined to be the '07 Dolphins all of a sudden. We got our asses kicked. You know what, it happens. We've gotten our asses kicked before and will again. Just as 3 preseason wins doesn't win us a Lombardi Trophy, a bad preseason loss doesn't lock up the #1 pick. The recall to 2006 is much different, we looked horrible from the first snap of the preseason, not just one game. Other than last night, we've looked pretty decent in all phases the entire summer, the wheels didn't permanently come off the wagon last night.
