Listen.

I too am sick of being a losing franchise. Trust me, I hate the fact that I have never seen a Dolphin Super Bowl. I feel almost spoiled from my early years of seeing Dan Marino making the Fins annual contenders.

Fact is this, since we lost Marino, every regime has tried to quickly patch the team up and make ill fated runs with little to no success.

We have overpayed for FAs (Daunte Culpepper)

Wasted draft picks with bad trades (AJ Feely, Joey Porter)

Made bad picks (John Beck, Henne) although Henne I believe is the closest we've been

If we want to be a contender year in and year out we need to draft a QB, develop him and build around him.

This will require some pain. It will take a little bit of time. But there is no reason to start over paying for free agents to surround no QB until you have that guy.

Flynn, or Alex Smith would've been more of the same.

Manning might have worked out, but even if he did it would've been a Favre Vikings situation at BEST. Which again would've only given us 1 or 2 competitive years and then we'd have to start ovver.

I think Ireland and Philbin are doing things the right way. For once we have a front office that isn't giving in to every whim the fickle fan base has. This alone is enough to make me think we might actually have the right guys running the show for once.

Ireland has drafted well despite what many of you naysayers with say. We have a solid foundation, now when we draft skill positions and QBs they are coming into a situation with vets.

This rebuild was like a stock chart. the talent level went up with the Parcells Sparano Ireland 3some; there were some flaws in the strategy (namely they picked the wrong QB), so this year was a natural pullback on the talent chart, shake the weakhands ie overpaid vets, now get a new QB of the future. Our talent level is still much better than it was when the original rebuild started, I believe as we continue to draft this well we will see a super bowl within 3 years.

In this analogy how many times do we have to die to achieve heaven?

That's the thing, we've never truly "died" we've tried quick fixes, no real rebuild. Now it seems we are finally going about it the right way

Shouldn't we have, as a team going through a real rebuild, a much better cap situation? We're hamstrung right now. We're also not in the position to acquire the most important position in professional sports.
 
WNYD year-in and year-out is one of the most delusional members of FH

it never fails

Much of our cap situation is from FAs brought in when we thought Henne or Pennington were the answer, this is why we're getting rid of older expensive players right now

No sir, the problem is most of Fin Heaven, much like the south florida sports scene in general is delusional. I am one of the few voices of reason on this board. However, there are many who agree with me on this recent issue, I don't feel I'm offbase.

Fact is, I'm one of the few people who posts with actual research, instead of just hearsay and stupid catchphrases. People get mad because they can't prove me wrong with nothing but mob mentality

Yea, I'm sooo delusional,

it's delusional to look at information, and compare it with other successful teams and strategies, than take a step back and look at the bigger picture rather than jumping on the emotional bandwagon of whiners who think a "big splash" is the answer

I'm soooo delusional that I let pesky things like research and perspective to form my opinions rather than ****ty journalists and mobs with pitchforks

I feel like the guy who tried to tell the catholic church earth isn't the center of the universe. The negativity runs so deep with so many of these Dolphins fans its laughable.
