One thing that jumps out at me about your so called research. For one Jay is injured in the first half of the seasons, in 02 after the Denver game (6th game) and didn't start again until game 13. If you can't add that only 4 games remaining in the season.
Secondly and probably more importantly, you blame Fiedler for these inconsistencies, but everytime our back-up Qb has done worse then Fiedler and put us in jeopardy of missing the playoffs. In 02 it was Lucas going 2-4 as a starter when Fiedler started this team off at 5-1. That dramatically changed our playoff picture, making us 7-5 when Fiedler returned and going 2-2 to finish the year out.
In 03 pretty much the same scenerario played itself out. The Fiedler led dolphins were 4-2 before he got injured and our back up took over going 2-2, and would of been 2-3 if it wasn't for Fiedler saving the day against Washington. Again after coming back from injury the Fiedler led Phins finished up 2-2.
So how can you blame a Jay when he is injured almost smack in the middle of the season. Playing 4 games apiece at the end of the season after coming back from injury is no way to gauge a Qb. If our Back up's could of did better then .500 that would of kept us on the same track that Fiedler seasonally leaves us off at.
Also in 02 in the last 4 games he started after coming back from injury Jay threw 5 TD's to 2 INT's. And in none of the games was his QBR lower then 70.4.
Also in 02 our line was not strong. We just had a good running game with a superb back. That strong line you just mentioned gave up 26 sacks, atleast thats how many I accounted for.

Makes more sense then after your in depth research all you could due was pin blame on one guy in a team sport...
