Did you expect this or were you expecting better? Has your opinion changed as the season progressed?
 
I was willing to give Tannehill the opportunity to be better, but in the first three games he showed to have every bad tendency under Gase that had sank Philbin's teams, and then he's gotten even worse. Even I'm somewhat surprised as to how bad he's gotten, he always played just well enough to not lose his job under Philbin, but Philbin would no doubt have benched him by now.
 
I expected to be pretty bad but this is worst team in league bad..
 
I said 5 or 6 wins before the season and I don't think they get there. I think 1 or 2 wins is more likely so they're not who I thought they were...they're much worse.
 
I was not expecting to be this bad. I was really hoping Tannehill would take the next step in his maturation but has seemingly regressed back into a fetus.
 
I thought 7 or 8 wins with many close games....I was way off
 
Somehow...they're worse than the 4-5 wins I thought they'd get..
 
They're worse than I thought. Have yet to resemble a disciplined and prepared football team.
 
I figured 5-6 wins, might be a smidge worse. Gase and Philbin make me yearn for the days of f***ing Sparano. At least the team had a semblance of an identity and the front office wasn't a hodgepodge mess of people.
 
Worse. I thought we'd score points this year. Instead, we can't even get double digit first downs. I thought we could compete for a WC spot - perhaps win 8 games - be eliminated toward the end of the year not in October. But we are the worst team in football. If we play Cleveland 16 times, I bet we go 5-11.
 
I was insane. I really thought we could be .500.

I'm not sure that Cleveland isn't worst, but that's because 5 games in they are playing a 4th string QB. We're playing our chosen QB for the long haul and that it's even up for debate says everything.
 
I was more optimistic, 12-4 or atleast a double digit win season. My reasoning- its a lot of bad teams out there. Unfortunately our beloved Dolphins is one of them.
