the reason why 10-6 is so interesting is because our offense was ****, fiedler had like 7 more turnoavers than TDs and ricky williams rushed for 3.5 yards a carry, and we didn't have a 1000 yard receiver, thats pathetic... those are bottom of the league numbers and everyone was down on our defense and coaching too, we should have been no where near the playoffs with all that considered. That being said, there was only one game we were blown out, and we had a legit shot at the rest.
this despite no offense, our "overrated defense" according to most on this board, and our "terrible coaching."
How DARE you say anything positive about last season, sir? You sicken me! Wannestedt is a total idiot! Spielman has rocks in his head! Hueizenga is a devil-worshipping, neo-nazi, retarded, inane, penny-pinching, derelict impresario!!!
Ok, I'm just kidding... I agree completely. I'm glad someone else here has enough grey matter to notice that there are actually some good things to say about the Dolphins.

No we weren't dominant, yes all our losses were to good teams, only one being a blow out, and yet we still only missed out on the playoffs by a tie breaker. By the way we had a tougher schedule than anyone in the playoffs according to strength of schedule. so with that im just hoping rick is making the right moves to give us a little boost, no real complaints so far aside from mcintosh's stupid ankle
10-6
Well said, and I agree, but let me also point out that we actually DID beat two good teams. Dallas and Baltimore. They both made the playoffs, and we did, in fact, beat both of them.
This Chicken Little thing happens every year. Fans run around screaming the sky is falling. It's ridiculous and sad, really. And, unfortunately, it will never end. Even if the Phins went undefeated again, I feel there would probably be one or two people out there that would say, "Yeah, but NO WAY they can do it again!"
I would love to see the Phins win a Superbowl. I'd bounce off the walls. But, I'm also not going to whine and cry about it every time one of the other 31 NFL teams wins it.
Congrats to the Pats on a great Superbowl victory, and to the Panthers for giving them one heckuva game. We'll see you next season.
That being said, everything is not lost in Miami. Not even close. Pope, that lunkhead with the Herald, just wrote an article calling the Phins the laughingstock of the NFL. I think that statement is absolutely ludicrous. Ask any team who has to play the Dolphins next season how much of a laughingstock the Phins are, and they'll tell you that Miami is a damn good team, and very tough to beat. Even after his fresh Superbowl victory, Tom Brady said that they have to get to work, that there really wasn't much seperating them and the Dolphins.
He spoke the absolute truth.
I said it before, and I'll say it again: Miami needs to shore up the OL and get a #2 WR. With that, they'll contend for the Superbowl, and that's all I ask... that they CONTEND. Just give me one good playoff game to root for my Phins. Anything more than that is icing on the cake.
God, I love football.
10-6. Amen.
But since I have to, I don't think this guy said anything about their expectations being high BEFORE they won the 2nd Superbowl. In point of fact, I think he said just the opposite.
