Because for the most part the Dolphins are playing with Wanny players.
You guys on this board absolutely crack me up, the wind blows less directions than most of the posters.
1) We're going 14-2 and the SB now that Saban is here!
2) We didn't need Ronnie Brown now that Ricky's back.
3) We've lost all three pre-season games so the seasons lost, might as well fold our tents.
4) Saban sucks because we should be undefeated at this point!
You guys just gotta relax, the Dolphins weren't a bad team last year, they were a horrible team last year. This wasn't a team that due to injuries cased a bad record, they had bad players, bad coaching, bad game plans (what little there was), bad everything. You don't turn that around in one year.
Be patient, great coaches build great teams by making smart drafts picks, smart FA pickups, etc. You build a solid foundation and the teams come together. You build a solid offensive and defensive plan and the players buy into that system. How do you think NE has done it the last few years?
This team will not be winning a SB this year, they'll be better than last year but if the Fish go 8-8, consider ourselves lucky.
