Consider this:
1. We had a crazy off-season firing Flores, executive and ownership issues.
2. We hire a head coaching virgin who showed intelligence, ability to work well with others and develop players. Extremely promising.
3. We get penalized by Flower Boy Goodell for something that nearly every team engages in (secretly trying to reach out to players back channel) and we weren't secretly filming other teams practice sessions, or deflating balls.
4. We developed our QB from a reclamation project into someone who still ranks in the top QBS (even after the Chargers loss)
5. We suffered devastating injuries but found some gems in undrafted CB Kadar/McKinley.
6. Our current record is 8-5 which most posters here would be orgasmic about in pre-season.
7. In a single off season we revamped much of our roster to become a relevant and dangerous team.
8. We have a young team/coach that will only get better!
9. We will make the playoffs
10, Ray is Always right!

For those of you trolls/lemmings who are crying out to fire everyone and that our team is **** and won't win another game, etc., I am happy to send you each a bag of fresh elephant dciks to eat, from Thailand. Of course, said dciks will be vegan (likely tofu) as no actual elephants will be harmed in the procurement of the dciks as to not offend anyone. Fair criticism/debate is always welcome and appreciated but I suggest some of you "all is lost" twerps, transition or identify with another team like the Jills or Jets.

Phins Up!

Phins fans can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness.
Ok we are going deep into the playoffs just like the last 30 seasons and I know for sure this fantastic team wont let me down, cause they never had. This is the QB we have been waiting for and the Genius coach we deserve, we Just need some patience because Our life time patience has always been rewarded. Lets give Grier another 30 years, after all if I just keep on eating the right stuff and doing exercise it is possible that I can get to my old 90s and then my patience could be rewarded! I am so happy for me and the rest of us the surviving vegans!
 
This fanbase has been beat up for decades. I'm not with the reactionary opinions on either side..... Ya just gotta know if things fall apart this season after looking solid, some people are gonna lose their minds over it.
 
The reason why most are concerned is because we’ve all seen this movie before. We’ll be playing up in Buffalo and New England in the snow against good defense in must win games. It sure feels like the “December Collapse” is upon us again.

Understandable but every team is different

I think guys like Hill and Phillips will get this team to the playoffs

We shall see

Really hope so man, and hoping that McDaniel is able to make the proper adjustments here to close the season out so we do make the playoffs.

But this all just feels very familiar.

Fair comment. And I view the next 2 cold weather games as pivotal and learning experiences that will help us take the next step. This is about mental discipline in the face of adversity more than anything else. We have a young, talented (but still imperfect) roster that has the makings of a solid playoff run. But we aren't mature/disciplined at this point. Our coach and players are learning on the job.
 
I know just as much as many on here about this teams success and epic collapses ...see 1993....but being whiney and down on everything and everyone when before the season if someone said would you take 8-5...you guys would have said yes no doubt....is very disloyal in my opinion...you root during the good and bad ...if not your a bandwagon rider nothing more...doesn't mean you have to like everything about the team or the players or the staff...but to openly and continually mock and predict losses is not really the actions of a fan by definition...nor is giving up when if the season ended right now you'd be in the playoffs...I really don't think some of, if not all of you engaged in this kind of behavior, have ever played real or coached football...at the very least high school level where scholarships are at stake...because if you did, and you were on my team, I'd cut your ass immediately (at the very least we'd have a nice long chat about whether playing this sport is for you) or the players themselves would push you to quit....there's no room for this 'woe is me' mentality when your job or your future scholarship(s) worth thousands is riding on your performance

I'm just hoping the former SF run game coach has been hiding something in preparation for the upcoming cold weather games. Maybe we will see a copy of the pats game plan in last years game vs the Bills. We run the ball all game, average 4+ ypc, eat up the clock, and walk away with a W. Maybe dreams do come true!
 
8 and 5 and many are bailing :shrug:

I think we are good and will finish strong

Some adjustments need to be made but i believe in this team

Go Dolphins
People are quickly forgetting we are 8-5 and we didn't have Tua for three of those losses. Waddle and Hill are banged up, WIlson too. Yeah we will probably lose in Buffalo but then we get eight days to rest up for Green Bay back in Miami. A win and a little momentum will do wonders.
 
The problem is this isn't a rebuilt with a rookie head coach and QB. We opened up a tiny window of opportunity. We spent draft picks and cap space for this year and possibly next year. Past that is definitely uncertain. We should be winning NOW!

I hope so but what makes you think that? We have completely regressed so much in fact that our O is almost laughable and after the last two the worst in the league or very close. I can't imagine us winning another game tbh, Buff (no way, a kick in the nuts loss), Jets (their D will crush us), Pats (Tough D, brutal pass rush), Pack (A Rodgers, Aaron J, Poss fight here). I mean we are trending down in a big way, the opposite of McD progress he always talks about.
