I didn't change the topic, I am replying to jealous rants from your fellow phin fans. Complain to them not me. I understand your point but I didn't skew the thread.
Miami had 3 non playoff bound teams to close the season w/ 2 at home. if they won those games they make the playoffs but they couldn't win a single game and you lost to TWO teams we BEAT earlier in the season.
Yes, trailing by a FG in the 4th qtr of the title game is being humiliated

yet not being w/in double digits int he 2nd half at home in the WC isn't:lol2:
The difference is I gave the dolphins credit in '08 for taking care of business, even w/ an easy sched you still have to win.
We've been close, you haven't. Yeah it doesn't mean much but I'd much rather make the title game than have 0 playoff wins in the last 11 seasons, wouldn't you?[/QUOTE]
In theory yes im sure all Dolphins fans would like to have had those playoff wins, however, the Jets had put all their eggs in one basket to make those runs and are now left with a bad cap situation, and are now left with a disgruntled underachieving premadonnna WR, Plax already said he wants to be an eagle, a premadonna QB who regressed and who nobody on his own team believes in and coach said he wouldnt be opposed to Peyton Manning, just commited 12.5million to that same disgruntled WR leaving a clear open issue already heading into the 12' season (no matter what they will say publicly they will never be the same QB/WR combo), that same cap problem also made them commit money to Wayne Hunter who will be staying with the team, one of if not the main issue with the OL and that team, Bart Scott likely gone, Calvin Pace with his big $ contract another year older, Jim Leonard likely another cap casualty and i would think Brodney Pool gone so the safety spots are a mess, Tomlinson likely gone and bashed the locker room regardless, no veteran leaders to speak of besides your Center who is still pretty young, and a head coach who "everyone wanted to play for" to now the boy who cried wolf who admitted he didnt know what was going on with his team, and your new "OC" who is awful at in game decisions as well as being an O-Line coach who could not coach an O-Line
