Somebody save this so we can laugh at the Trent Green haters when the dolphins are playing their best football since the Marino era.


everyone show if you are for or against Green.


FOR IT 100%!!!!!!!
 
I'm against it, but i won't be laughing at anyone if he sucks. I want him to suceed now that he is a Fin but am against getting a 37 year old QB that had his best days behind the best o-line in football. That being said he may be the best QB we have had since Marino for this year anyways.
 
Im for the TEAM! I support the team, as TG is part of the team, I support TG. (I know, so is DC but only for the time being)
 
The argument is not whether Cpep would be a better QB for us than Green, we'll NEVER know that unless Cam changes his mind. The argument is whether he should be allowed to compete for the spot.

Cam has made the decision for all of us...simple as that...
 
great move . we are set at qb for the forseeable future,
now on to the o-line.
 
i am all for trent green being our QB he can help John Beck out his first year and when its time for Beck he will start
 
Anybody whose seen my post knows that I'm not so much against the acquisition of Trent Green as I am against handing him the starting job on a silver platter. That's just my side of things.
 
This is my first post ever but i been coming to this site for 2 years. C. Pep is a use to be, im tired of hearing if he will be the same. When he played for us he would have 2 guys wide open and just hold the ball. Trent green is going to be a good teacher for Beck, Green can teach Beck better than C. PeP. Greens been a back up and knows what Becks feeling C.PeP being a first round pick had it all handed to him. It's not Peps knee, its his decision making he don't read defenses real good and randy moss isn't walking thrue our door. Trent Green didn't have no Hall of fame WR in K.C and he did a good job, IM for Trent Green 100%
 
I am for Trent Green as a player. I am really against the price that we paid to get him, however. I am also against getting rid of Daunte right as he is cleared to fully participate in practices.

Here's an article I wrote that explains why I am disappointed with the draft pick that Miami gave up:
What's Green Worth?
Excerpt:
We also have to be honest with ourselves. With or without Green, this is going to be a tough year for Miami to compete. The AFC is strong as usual, let alone the fact that the Jets and Patriots are both within the Eastern Division. With Miami's stout defense, they will always have a chance to compete. That chance just isn't very big. When it comes to a decision like trading for Green, the team must think about its future. Green is not the future of the Dolphins. He will start for a year or two at the most and then become a backup or retire. The player that Miami would choose with that fourth-round pick that Stoda wants Mueller to give up for Green could very well be a solid starter for a long time with this team.

It's absurd to think that giving up a future player like that is worth having Trent Green in South Florida a little early, just because some people are losing patience.

Here's another article I wrote after the Green trade went through:
Green Deal Gets Done
Excerpt:
Don't get me wrong. I think Green will be a great fit for Miami's offense. I just think the team is being done a disservice by not allowing Culpepper to compete for the starting job. He may yet return to his old-form. Not one of us knows if he will, but there is that possibility. It's as if the team is holding a lottery ticket, but they are choosing to throw it out before the numbers are even called. The chances may not be great, but there is a chance. I would feel a lot better about the situation if the front office can recoup a draft pick by striking a deal with a team looking for a potential starter or solid backup with plenty of starting experience.

But mostly, I feel sympathy for Daunte. He's given every ounce of his determination and effort in an attempt to rebuild himself for the Miami Dolphins. It seems disingenuous to cut ties with him right when he's on the cusp of making a full return.

To sum everything up, I would like to restate the words that I wrote at the very first signs of Miami's interest in Green: "I don't think it would be a bad move if the Phins were to get Green, but it wouldn't be the best move, either." That sentiment is only intensified by the price that Miami ended up paying.

So, I'm happy we have Green, but not with the circumstances that were and are involved with obtaining him.

Your thoughts?
 
Culpepper deserved one more shot.!!!!!! I WILL BACK WHOEVER IS THE QB FOR THE FINS !!!!! Culpepper deserved one more shot.
 
Culpepper was undisputeably a better QB than Green was last year.

2006 QB rating:
Daunte Culpepper - 77.0
Trent Green - 74.1

Exactly Larry. That and the price we paid. We gave up, a probable 4th rounder for someone who, in all likely scenario,s will either retire in two years (age 39 then) or be Becks back up in 2 years. Dang it stinks that we blinked.
