I was not disappointed or suprised. I disagree with you about the talent of our roster. I knew when we did not address the OLine in the off season we were in trouble. Then when Dixon and Nails both went down I knew we were in deep trouble. This team did nothing to improve itself this off season. We did not get the linemen or the WRs that we needed. WHen I criticized the draft and the free agency I got slammed on this board. We got more defensive help, but you know Seau and Knight are older and they can't pull all the weight. That along with Jay "noodle arm" Fiedler who chokes in every important game, I knew we were a long shot.
I took a lot of crap from the faithful here. I was dubbed "negative" and not a "real fan" because I woudln't roll over and lick the teams boots. I am a realist, and I know this game. We are just not talented enough to win in this league. With the exception of Ricky, Chambers and McMichael no one on our offense would start for 80% of the other teams. On defense we are getting old and slow.
This team better get some real fire power or they are not going to make it. The sad thing is they have no money to work with. So this will be a long process not a quick solution. This may be the beginning of the end for the current Dolphin era.
We can only hope that we fire Wanny's butt out of here and get a coach in who can at least make us competitive again. Which this year we weren't.
Hear that? Its the winds of change blowing.
Addressing the OL............................ aLOT of folx knew the very same thing, but heaven help you if you say it. Reality does have a way of taking a back seat to homerism tho!! But as you know, realists can NOT be a true fan tho !!
