NESN.com:Do the Dolphins Have What It Takes to Repeat?

[DKphin]

Why the Dolphins can threaten the Patriots: It wouldn’t be very Bill Parcells-like to see one of his operations fail spectacularly after such a successful go-round. Because of that, the Dolphins should play at a similar level to that of 2008.
They’ve got their core back intact, and quarterback Chad Pennington should continue to thrive in an offense that is geared to his style. The 2008 NFL Comeback Player of the Year threw for a career-high 3,653 yards and 19 touchdowns, his second-highest total ever. Pennington, who finished tied for second in the MVP voting, led the NFL with a 67.4 completion percentage, finished third in interception efficiency (just 1.5 percent of his passes got picked off) and sixth with 7.7 yards per pass attempt.
Running backs Ronnie Brown (916 rushing yards, 4.3 yards per attempt, 10 touchdowns) and Ricky Williams (659, 4.1, four TDs) will keep up their pace, and Brown should actually improve after not being entirely healthy in 2008. Grove will also provide a huge upgrade to the ground attack.
On the outside, expect a statistical leap out of the promising set of young wide receivers who broke out in 2008: Ted Ginn Jr. (56 catches, 790 receiving yards, two touchdowns), Greg Camarillo (55, 613, two) and Davone Bess (54, 554, one).
And finally, the secondary has vastly improved with the additions of Green, Wilson, Davis and Smith.

Being a Red Sox fan and living in Mass I watch NESN all the time. Thats one of the better and fair assessments of the 2009 Dolphins that I've read. Nice post.

Dolphins arent gonna bow down this team has only gotten better, Brady doesnt mean the Pats run away with the title. they still have weaknesses and Brady might not be the Brady of old and we always have his number it seems
