Last sentence of the article:

While I look for the Dolphins to go 7-9 this year, they will be right in the thick of the division race come 2009.

Nice article. I will be stoked if we win 7 games. I like his prediction about 4-6 waiver wire pickups. And I wonder if the trade he mentioned involves a qb.

 

[bdmagnum]

I would be happy with 7 wins

 

[Rdskn4lyf21]

I think 7-9 would be accurate.

I don't see them seriously competing in the division for another 2-3 years though.

Great article, and I agree with mostly everything he said. i believe were going to go 6-10 this year and have another great off-season to add some playmakers, and we will be in the thick of the playoff race come 2009.

 

[elandre]

yea thats what i think... 6-10 will be our record if we stay HEALTHY! We draft Jenkins from Ohio State and we should be lookin pritty good for the next couple years.

This isn't the NFL of the 70's and 80's. Things change mighty fast in the modern day NFL. 2-3 yrs is an eternity.

So by 2010 Miami will be competing for a division title? Probably by then, Jason Taylor will be in year two of his Hollywood career. Can't wait, a division title and a former Dolphin staring in a movie in the same year. :up:

7 wins would be great but I think thats stretching it a bit. I did watch the pre season game today and was impressed with the first string defense which I thought was going to be not so good this year due to how it was last year with ZT and JT. I think the defense is very young and looking for leadership so I dont see 7 wins this year I see more of a 4-5 win season due to how young this team truely is. This is just an honest opinion.

I was surprised when I saw this. This guy LOVES the Jets and usually hates the Dolphins. He must really believe in Parcells and Co. I'm thinking 5 or 6 wins, 7 would be great!

 

[thevegasphinfan]

funny in question 1 when mentioning the qbs he did not talk about Beck

 

[Duriel]

"Parcells recalled the time he had Wes Welker on his roster and lost him on a waiver claim."

I'm glad he can recall it, because I sure can't.

 

[Rich]

Too early to make a prediction like that. The defense looked good. The offense scored 6 points. If we averaged 6 points per game this year... we would be 0-16.

I'd like to see our passing game score some points before I bet on this team to win 1 game this year.

Who knows... Maybe Pennington turns into the NFL MVP this year... I'd like to see him play well here at least once, though.

 

[PENNDOLPHAN]

7-9 sounds good, but i dont expect us to go on a playoff run. The AFC is just to strong

 

[Tetragrammaton]

I said 4-12, but with Pennington, 7-9 is a possibility.
