For all the speculation of why we are the way we are, I expect it can be summed up in one word:
Attitude.
Look, we don’t have Marino, Little, Keuch, Dwight, Nat, Paul, Vern, Nick, or any of the other greats. I get that.
But this is the NFL, a professional league. These guys are the best of the best. Some more than others, but still the best.
I believe that Parker can be turned. If he allows that to happen. No different than Phillips. Same deal. Drake and X have shown they are hungry. I truly believe we have yet to see Tannehill’s best.
Landry can excel, if he keeps his **** together and quits wigging out.
We need a wrecking machine D end, and help with LBs. I see Harris pegged another sack yesterday. He will develop. Cam is getting old, no disrespect, happens to everybody. A 36 year old D end is impressive in its own right. DT looks good to go. LB is a hot mess. We need two LBs. Right now. I say two because we can’t afford three with the current mess.
O line is a wreck. Imagine Drake with another decent back and a serious O line.
Three O line guys. A RB. A fire and forget D end. We get out QB back (he’s fine, don’t argue with me, lest you display your new guy status).
2 LBs.
And a badass TE. Young, hungry, and big.
That’s 8 guys. Secondary (with the return of Lippett) is good. LBs (with two who understand the concept as well as the return of Raekwon) is good. Another D end and we are set there.
Three pissed off O line guys (cutting the dead weight), a RB to help Drake, and a TE (keep Fasano, cheap and a badass blocker) and for Gods sake build a fire under Parker.
Point is, we nearly have the players. Pretty close.
It’s attitude.
Juice’s bullshit. Parker spraining an ankle while drinking from a fountain. Tunsil blowing his natural position. Pouncey getting by on his past. Kiko playing like some guy off the street. Jones being a shadow of previous years. Timmons makes his own rules. Thomas does the same, but even lazier. Branch downshifting after payday. On and on.
It’s all attitude. And it is more critical to fix this first, and THEN cut and replace. No more washed up guys that expect to get paid off what they did five years ago (for somebody else).
This used to be a glory job. Good money, tax incentives, winning team with the best coach, live where it’s always summer....
Now, Miami is where you go after you kicked ass on your rookie contract. You get paid highest dollar to **** off and recuperate from your first four years. Then when your lucrative Miami contract expires, you sign with someone else and go back to being a badass again.
Attitude.
