If these daring moves backfire the Dolphins will be a laughingstock

I hope Miami has a stretch of like 2 decades of dominance in their future to make up for this ineptness.

Answer the question. How does a team that routinely wins 6 - 10 a year become the laughing stock of the league?

Miami does not routinely win 6-10 games a year. More like 6-8 games a year. Yes 6-8 wins every year may be one peg above laughingstock, but is this what it has come down to for Miami, debating whether 6-8 wins every years is less embarrassing than 0-5 wins every year? 6-8 wins every year is the worst place to be as an nfl team.

So you're telling me that going 0-16 is equivalent to winning 6-8 games a year? Wow!
 
Point is...it doesn't matter if you're the absolute bottom of the bottom shelf
with Cleveland or whoever -- you're firmly established entrenched in the
BOTTOM and the fans HAVE TO ASK who did this to us???

Clue #1: see ownership
 
How exactly can these moves backfire? Paying Landry would have been nuts, and Suh’s contract was ridiculous from the start. The other two cuts were no brainers. This team was going nowhere as it was constituted.

Now, could the team screw up the rebuilding? Of course, and there’s a good chance they will. Doesn’t mean it was wrong to try.
I don't mind the Landry trade but not a fan of the Suh cutting.
 
I agree with 100% of the article - if you put the "laughing stock" part aside, the guy is right - give Tannenclown a breathalyzer...
 
Isn't it? Routinely, we are a middle of the pack win total-team that lost it's starting QB. Yet we are the laughing stock of the league?

Not the team that went 0-16
Not the teams that spent a boat load in the offseason (Giants, Raiders) with no significant injury.

But us? This place!
We’ve been irrelevant for 20 years despite signing big name players in free agency frequently. Talked up by fans and media several off seasons to always fail. The Dolphins are laughed at league wide by most other fan bases every year. 4th longest drought of reaching a conference championship game. 6th for Super Bowl. 5th longest Playoff victory drought. Pretty damn depressing being a fan of this team.
 
I hated the Suh signing but cutting him this year with the cap hit is beyond stupid narrativr

So the teams that have been worse than us just get snickered at while we get laughed at?

Really? Google "miami dolphins" and "bullying". How does a team in a gladiator sport get in trouble for bullying? The laughing started to get pretty loud right about then, hasn't died down yet.

Our Miami Dolphins. LOL
