CBS4's Steve Goldstein: Dolphins loading up for Super Bowl run

Top players want to be Dolphins and play for Mike McDaniel

This is from last week but just saw it and do not consider it old news. Good to see CBS chiming in on what Miami has done.

Why Not Us?

I like the sound of that ofc the time to strike was when Brady left now we have some stiff competition esp if Favre, err Rodgers comes to NYJ

Why not? You have to think Miami will be healthier/luckier than last year in terms of injuries. That always plays a huge factor in the NFL.

It's disappointing that the Dolphins had to use a backup quarterback in their last two playoff appearances.

A healthy Tua is the key, but the pieces are definitely there for a run.

 

[GRYPHONK]

Absolutely.

Miami has an MVP caller QB..

Brought in a defensive genius to go with our offensive genius HC.

Key additions to our defense.

As stated above Miami should have better luck with injuries. Last year was ridiculous.

All I'm saying is Miami was considered a LEGIT contender by most analysts experts etc by week 10 last year. Then our slump and Tua injury.

If Miami was a contender last year, they only improved their team and should he an even stronger contender next year.

Keep Tua healthy and Miami will have a shot

This might be the only option.....

Whenever you think about our chance to win the SB in 2023, here's the way we should look at it imo.....the top 3 teams in the AFC the last couple of years have been KC,Cincy and Buffalo.......all 3 have lost and gained players and by the looks of it I'd say that KC and Cincy look at least as good as they were the last couple of years if not a bit better........Have Buffalo lost more than they have gained?......I think it's close so.......

Most likely in order to make it out of the AFC and into the SB chances are very high that we'll have to beat at least two of those 3 teams in the playoffs which means our team can not just be better than last year but rather, we need to be much better.

Staying healthy would go a long way to be much better. Our offense will need to be more balance/complete and our defense will have to be much better than last year.

At THIS moment we seem to be counting on the same OL and RB room as last year which wasn’t good enough. We also don’t have a real number one TE yet.

Adding a good TE/OL in the draft and/or maybe a good RB could give us what we need to play with the big boys so time will tell. I like what I see "so far" but we have work to do.

P.S. Playing at home for the playoffs would of course go a long way. At the end of the day is not "are we better than we were last year"?

The question is, are we going to be better than KC,Cincinnati and Buffalo?

 

[Dogbone34]

It's all on QB1 now

Huge opportunity for Miami

 

[Fintastic2124]

Another year in the same offensive system will certainly help an already potent offense.

I'm usually an offensive guy, but man this defense could be VERY opportunistic with Fangio. I'm excited to see what they can do.

 

[AdamD13]

Almost imperative for the Dolphins to get the #1 seed. Having to run a gauntlet of going to Cincy, Buffalo, and KC in January is a bit much.

We have made some nice moves, but we cannot win without protection for Tua. Not addressing the OL will be a HUGE mistake. I hope there is a plan there.

There is no plan. We are winging it day to day lol

I disagree... the OL and RB room were plenty good enough to field one of, if not the best offense in the NFL with Tua healthy. Sure they weren't good enough to keep it up with the backup QBs, but Fins aren't winning a SB with their backup anyway, neither are the Chiefs, Bengals or Bills if they lose their QB to IR before the playoffs...

 

[jimthefin]

It is all up to Tua and his availability now.

He plays every game and they are a very real SB contender.

who you at least agree that in order to make it to the SB chances are very high we'll have to beat at least two of the 3 teams(KC,BUFF,CINCY)in the playoffs?
