They were 6-10 and followed the same formula as the Saints and Bucs. They added Chiefs' quarterback Trent Green, also 37, in hopes that his experience will help the Dolphins adapt quickly to the offense of new coach Cam Cameron. Call it the Indiana connection. Green and Cameron are both former Indiana University quarterbacks and Cameron formerly coach for the Hoosiers, though didn't overlap with Green.

The Dolphins had the league's fourth-ranked defense and defensive player of the year in Jason Taylor. Add Pittsburgh linebacker Joey Porter to that mix and the possibilities are enticing.

Cameron believes he significantly improved offensive team speed by drafting Ted Ginn and signing tight end David Martin. If the Dolphins can get an offensive line to jell, they have a chance to win.

Nice article and find finsforce.

I agree that this team may be better off than it appears.

The OL and the defensive secondary are the question marks.
If they play well enough I could definitely see a push for a wilcard spot with a good record.

Having said that, I wouldn't be at all surprised with a 6-10/7-9 type season either.

Thanks! I scour the Web all the time and when I find something out there that isn't already visible on FH, then I try to post it for all of you. It's my little daily contribution while on break from teaching.

Ditto that, brother. If those two areas play above par, then we should fare well this coming season. Especially since the O-line could help open up our offense, which will give Ronnie more running room and Trent more time to complete passes downfield.

I would. I expect nothing worse than a .500 season.
 
we are definatly better then the team we had with gus
 
Don't we hear this same thing every year? Every year, it always seems like it's our year, and it's our time. I think we end up around 7-9/8-8 this year, but I can't see us making the playoffs for another two years.
 
I don't quite think our O-line is that good to get us into the play-offs, unless Green is able to make quick dissisions under presure, and Brown will need to be able to make most his own holes aswell.
 
Thank goodness that somebody see's what we do. There are just to many haters out there. I mean we even had a Patriots fan come on and talk smack about how we aren't goin to do anything this year. But obvisouly someone other then us(here at finheaven) get what's goin on around here. Thank you MSNBC
 
Hooray for some positive thinking, all of these arm chair qb's seems to me that they want the dolphins to fail because they picked ted ginn over brady quinn.
 
getting trent green gives this team some potential this season.

i expect a season much like 05.
