I’m remaking the offensive line, yes, again.

I’m done waiting for this defensive line that is highly paid to play like, well, it’s highly paid.

The Dolphins aren’t there yet on any of those based on what I’m hearing from inside the team.

One NFL rite of passage is that every year practically every team has significant turnover in the locker room. Good teams lose good players to higher salaries in free agency. Bad teams jettison disappointing players or players who didn’t play up to the expectations implicit in their contracts.

Defensive end Robert Quinn, who has 2.5 sacks, is scheduled to be Miami’s third-highest costing player on the salary cap at $12.9 million in 2019. And cutting him would save every penny of that nearly $13 million. So, absolutely, know-nothing Fake GM Mando is cutting Quinn this offseason.

But here’s the thing: The Dolphins don’t agree at this stage. For the money he’s costing this year and what he’s due next year, I would expect a premier edge pass rusher. He hasn’t been that through 11 games. So I’m moving on because he didn’t meet expectations.

Except the Dolphins talk as if he is meeting expectations.

“I think he’s about what we expected,” defensive coordinator Matt Burke said. “I think he started out pretty hot and kind of hit a little lull. They all get banged up. I’ve noticed just a difference in him physically in the last probably three weeks...I see him just kind of moving around lately like he was earlier in the season. That’s been encouraging. Like I said, the production has been coming.”

:lol: @ know nothing fake GM Mando. I don't blame him for sticking it to Gase after that arrogant quip he lofted at him a few weeks ago.

Regime after regime. Same garbage. Same stubborn inability to admit mistakes. Same arrogant ‘well we know you think he sucks, but we watch THE TAPE and you don’t, so you don’t know what you’re talking about because we’re NFL coaches’ bullshit diseased attitude every damn regime we’ve ever had post Shula has been infected with. I KNEW this would be the type of **** they’d try shoveling us. Nothing ever changes.
 
I truly don't think any of these people want to win badly enough. The dollars keep coming either way. Hell, someone has to play the role of the dysfunctional, lost franchise.

Which is why I want them to lose out. Badly. All these blunders and I bet Ross would still retain everyone. He has to be hit over the head with a sledgehammer to know change is needed. This from a billionaire owner who is successful with all his other business. So Dolphins. Can't make this stuff up.
 
I guess I’ll be watching College football more next year. Sunday’s will be my day of rest.
 
I don't think we need rebuild complete. we are 500 team?? dolphins need find way win 2 to 3 more game a season???
1. they need take chance on qb.. either f/a or draft one..
2. spend some money on OG,CB in f/a
3. draft 1dt, 2qb, 3og 4de,5te,6dt,7de
 
Well, you can't be afraid to fail in this business. You can't be afraid to aspire above mediocrity. You're in the wrong business if that's what motivates you.

As a coach, coordinator, or front office executive, you're hired to be fired in this business. You're most likely going to be fired from your job as a coach at some point. It's when, not if. You're not going to leave on your own terms in the NFL. If Don Shula couldn't, you're not going to either.

Good is the enemy of great.

It goes back to a point I made in the draft forum about drafting mediocre quarterbacks in the 1st round. It forces you to make a financial commitment to that mediocrity, or either move on and take a chance on being worse in an attempt to be better. If you don't have confidence in what you're doing, mediocrity is your destiny. This thinking is why Miami forces themselves to overpay for so many mediocre players. Over and over.

It's a shame they hire people whose only goal is to function and make decisions out of fear of losing their jobs, rather than building a winner. It's extremely disappointing for all the Dolphin fans that have tortured themselves with their loyalty to this organization for so long. They remember what a winning franchise looks like and how it operates.

I just shake my head.
 
browns drafted jm and got rid of him when he showed himself to be a bust then drafted mayfield. Dolphins tho HAVE ALWAYS BEEN CHEAP ALWAYS.
they didnt go out and try to 'build an all star team aroun johnny manziel' or try to put on
the 8 year development plan.

you can go 7-9 with just about any qb out there, you dont need to develop anyone..


developing is for HS and College. no more developing sucky players
 
I don't always agree with mando but he's right on this one. Our FO builds the team the same way our HC plays the games.......trying not to lose instead of playing to win. I keep thinking about the things we need to do to make the team better but I know that THIS FO/HC won't do them. Instead they'll do the same crap they always do. Try to plug a hole here and there, over paid for average players and stick with Tannehill who's never been horrible but has never been great either so in the end we'll have more of the same unless Ross gets rid of the 3 stooges (t-baum, grier and gase) and hires a real GM who will hire a real HC who will draft a real QB

I can't believe that Burke said, "Like I said, the production has been coming."

It's like him and Gase are watching a different football game, in an alternate reality.

It's one thing to knowingly insult fans and people's intelligence, but it's another altogether if they honestly believe that fabricated concoction.

Predictable, but just unreal.
 
Gase is an OC .Burke is an asst. DC. These guys got these jobs arguably earlier than they should have. That's some things older HCs have, wisdom and experience.
It seems like Tannenbaum, Grier, Gase and Burke all feel like it's someone else's fault to me.
