I have read almost every post there ever has been put out about C-Pep. How he is washed up, a never has been, worthless and even hated by our GM. I have been a true supporter of C-Pep since he got here as some of you have been. Let me tell all of the C-Pep hater people something.... When he was healthy, people were all over his jock and how he was a long time pro-bowl candidate for years and years to come. Then he got hurt. He went into rehab, tried to push it back so he could be there at TC for whatever team he ended up with. Then we worked out a deal and landed him. The people on this board were all over themselves about how we got a pro-bowler and he is great and all that.
Well....he tried to keep how his knee was really feeling hid so he could start the season to HELP our team. To give the Dolfans what they have been wanting for years....a winning team that GOES to the playoffs and maybe even the SB. He tried to do it behind a line that sucked more than a hoover vaccuum. He kept running for his life. He was sacked around 19 times in about 4 games to the point he was shelved for the remainder of the team. He never got a true chance in an offense that not only would protect him but would allow him to put up the good numbers he had for the Vikings. I tried to be silent but reading the post of how he is garbage just threw me for a loop. Yes I hope we can get a QB in the draft to GROOM... DC needs his chance to shine and all of the nay sayers need to just shut up and relax. If you could do a better job behind our OL then get you butt back there and see what DC had to put up with. We all have been so spoiled in the past by having the likes of Marino be our QB for better part of 17 yrs. I am sure we will draft a QB to mold but until then give DC a damn chance to prove himself instead of smashing the guy. It is getting freakin old already. If any of you could have done better at QB or being a GM to get us a better QB, then you wouldn't be working where you currently work.
Face the facts....C-Pep needs TC to get the offense down and to build a relationship with the offense. I am not saying hand the job over to C-Pep but he needs the chance to prove himself. Make it a competetion in TC. But at least give him a chance to compete and let it be fair. If he is the best then he starts...if not then he is a backup till he can. Everyone knows he has the ability. He just needs to be healthy like everyone else in order to perform at such a high level. I dont see any of you guys running around like that hurling the ball over 50 yrds just to make a play behind such a terrible line. So give him a break. Now that I am done ranting, dont criticise me. I am not a C-Pep homer....I just want the guy to have a legit chance. So stop the bashing and support the guy for crying out loud. When TC opens, we will see what he can do. If he blows then I am sure we will get the right guy in there but either way....it is all about a chance. Now I have said my peace....Peace out and Dolphins forever!!!!
