We always feel that we have a shot because Miami always seems to have the talent to win it all, but we simply dont end up doing it.
Remember a few years ago in Ricky's second year, EVERYONE thought we were going to be in the super bowl. Even some of the jacka** analysts who always hate on miami were picking us to be there.
Now, we have a better quarterback this time around, but our defense is NOT what it was 3 years ago. Our defense has promise, but that defense was the tops. our running game should be as good or better, not because Ronnie is better than Ricky, because he isnt better, but our play calling will be better than 3 years ago when it was run, run, run, punt. Our skill position players should ONCE AGAIN be dominant, but we are known for our lapses when it counts. I think its up to our lines. More so the O-line than teh d-line because the O-line is going to have to allow C-Pep to have a little time, and they are going to have to adjust to having a guy who moves around back there, like Feidler did, but better.
All that being said, sure I believe that we have what it takes to win, but we really have to start winning before I put us in the superbowl. There is still Indy, there is still Pittsburgh, there is still New England, there is still San Diego. There are a lot of teams that have the tools. PLus Im looking for a break out year from Arizona, Houston and i think the real suprise will be Tennessee. But this is why we play the games
