No. I really haven't watched much football at all this year. My father got really sick and it kind of reset me. I'm just not that interested in it. Not as much as I used to be.
Oh I'm sorry to hear that. I hope he gets better

Don Shula said it 50 years ago. In a cold weather division, you need to be able to effectively run the football and play defense. We can do neither and the cold weather did it again.

Good News! Next week ESPN will now have an over under on missed tackles to bet on.
Thank you so much. He's home now and is doing well. It just set my priorities a little differently.

They wouldn't need to if they actually had a competent, successful GM and HC.

He sure did, and then really showed his commitment to that philosophy in the Marino years with the likes of Mark Higgs, Lorenzo Hampton, Bernie Parmalee and whoever else he brought in. Not to mention keeping Tom Olivadotti as his DC forever (talk about a poor tackling defense). Even the best coach ever can muck this stuff up.
We had our chance to become the intense tough team we needed to be when we promoted Dan Campbell 9 years ago.
In his introductory press conference, he said the dolphins culture needed to change. āWe need to become more aggressive.ā āWe need to breed a culture of intensity.ā āStarts in practice - we need these guys to go after each other.ā The best teams that Iāve been a part of - they get after each other. It gets heated. And itās intense - these are people fighting to win.ā If you remember, day 1 he had his guys doing the Oklahoma drill.
In his first victory speech after winning, hereās what he told his guys:
1) Iāll fān bleed for you guys
2) We were at each others throats this week
3) You awoke the giant
Dan saw the issue 9 years ago and it still applies today. McDaniel is a great O coordinator but not a leader of men like you need to be in football. We had our chance with Dan Campbell and as usual we blew it.

Disgusting and what happens when you donāt teach fundamentals nor practice.
Bad personnel choices

Like I said, even the best ever can get things wrong. Still floors me that he never got rid of Olivadotti.
