Shaquem Griffin Super Bowl LI Jersey from elaine's blog

DAVIE Authentic Ted Williams Jersey , Fla. (AP) Jay Cutler wore the beginning of a beard Wednesday, perhaps because there’s no time to shave when you’re trying to figure out how to score a few points.

The whiskers framed a rueful smile when someone suggested to Cutler that the Miami offense has struggled this year.

”That,” he said, ”is an understatement.”

In the wake of a 20-0 loss to New Orleans Sebastian Janikowski Super Bowl LI Jersey , the Dolphins (1-2) rank last in the NFL in points and yards per game, yards per play and third-down conversions. They’ve scored two touchdowns in three games and hope to break out Sunday against the Tennessee Titans (2-2).

While Cutler doesn’t sugarcoat the situation, he said it’s not as awful as it seems.

”On the outside it looks like all the walls are falling and we’re really bad and there’s no hope and no prayer for us,” he said. ”But we’re close. We’re right there. If we clean up a few things here Wholesale P.J. Hall Jersey , we can be a competitive team offensively.”

Cutler acknowledges he has been part of the problem. He appears unsettled in the pocket and has often responded to pressure with awkward footwork, which has led to erratic or weak throws. As a result he ranks 29th in yards per attempt and 25th in quarterback rating. In short, He lined up as a flanker and didn’t twitch a muscle when the ball was snapped.

”That’s what they told me to do – sit there, don’t get hit Shaquem Griffin Super Bowl LI Jersey , don’t touch anybody, don’t move,” he said, breaking into another smile. ”I feel like I executed that one.”
