Michael Miller-FinNation: How does Miami climb out of this now endless cycle of losing and mediocrity?Fans are calling for Head Coach Tony Sparano’s head. In my opinion there are enough red flags about Coach Sparano that I don’t believe he can coach this team into becoming a playoff / Super Bowl contender. 4 years in and this team doesn’t seem to be going anywhere. I don’t know if firing him at any point this season actually fixes Miami’s problems. Firing Sparano might buy Miami a couple of extra wins… that are meaningless. An interim coach is unlikely to keep the job permanently beyond this year. So tell me exactly what firing Sparano before season’s end accomplishes?First, keep Sparano for the remainder of the season and don’t worry about losing. As a fan, I now want as many losses as possible. You read that right – losses don’t hurt me any more and in truth every loss will bring the Dolphins one step closer to the one thing that can return the Dolphins to greatness:The NFL is a passing league. Look at how QBs have led their teams to Super Bowls: Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees, Peyton Manning, and Tom Brady. Look at how the Colts have fallen apart with the absence of Manning, or how rookie QB Cam Newton has lit up defenses in his first two games.By all accounts Andrew Luck is as good a QB prospect as there has ever been. Get Luck and Miami instantly becomes relevant again. Get Luck and hope is instantly restored in Miami. Get Luck and fans will buy jerseys like crazy and you won’t have to worry about selling out the stadium for years to come. Get Luck and Miami’s fan base will double overnight. Luck by himself, without ever playing a down, would dramatically alter the Dolphins franchise.Unfortunately Luck (in more ways than one) isn’t the only thing Miami needs. Once this season is over, Miami needs to clean house on the football side starting with General Manager Jeff Ireland. Ireland hasn’t done a good enough job building Miami’s roster over the past 4 years. Too many decent players, too few super stars. The makeover continues with Coach Sparano, who doesn’t have what it takes to coach a winner without Bill Parcells standing behind him and scaring the players to be disciplined. Let the new GM pick his new Head Coach, and the let the rest of the pieces fall as they may. This plan should include who Miami might target for both of these positions. http://finnation.com/?p=3849&utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=path-back-to-greatness
 
My take, Steven Ross needs to sell the team, no more gimicks on and off the field, just a good product and stop changing the stadium names you a$$wholes!
 
Move to another city. One that doesnt have sportswriters who feed lame *** fans who cant handle the heat (and yet opposing teams players can-go figure).

Carl Peterson will have his new job waiting for him and he probably already has plans in his head.

Everything from there starts with peterson but hey, if we played in diff town, thats the first positive. Miami market sucks!

I think half of the problem is the way the stadium is designed.

I agree, Miami used to have such a great advantage in the Orange bowl with how close the fans were to the field, opponants could not hear themselves, and would make dumb mistakes with how loud the fans would get. There you have a real look at what the 12th man could do in a game. :(
 
No we should not move to another city, we our the MIAMI DOLPHINS, not the Orlando Dolphins, we need structure and direction

yes, you should steven ross! that would be the best thing you could do! Leave joe robbie to the hurricanes. you can still have superbowls there.
 
Great. We can be Los Angeles, and another 40 years before we get an NFL team again. No thanks. If the team isn't playing locally, i would have no emotional ties to it at all.

This.
 
To your argument about Cam Newton lighting up opponents' defences, I agree for a rookie, his potential and on-the-field ability have soared. However the Carolina Panthers are 0-2. Defeats the purpose of your post.
 
Im not even sure they have to take luck to make the fans believe. Just draft a ****ing Franchise QB. There will be plenty available from the way it seems.
 
ross wont move the team
he would look like the biggest jerk if he did
You would see riots and kids burning dolphin jerseys in the streets.
I think UM football would become king in miami again.
With this last fins lose it wasn't so bad because at least the canes beat ohio state
softened the blow..
