Really sad and deeply disappointing (yet another blown season)

[BigNastyFish]

Just wanted to say I feel sorry for the true, dedicated Miami Dolphins fans. I’m talking about the folks who have endured the long rotten decay that infected this franchise when Ross came to town. Overall it’s been a first class clown show with an unending stream of blunders with him at the top. Maybe he’s a nice man. I don’t know. But his ownership has been nothing but a DARK HOLE in this team’s (once glorious) history.

Anyway, I know most of us are more than ready to see Grier gone. And it’s glaringly obvious McD needs to go as well. So that means a new GM, new HC, and a new directive needs to be implemented. And that would certainly be more than justified right now. No reason to wait. But I can’t personally believe in the cure when the same disease is at the top.

Thus, I feel sorry for the true, dedicated Miami Dolphins fans. We ain’t in a good spot.

Have a wonderful Holiday Season!

How are you doing Big Nasty? Haven't seen you much, over the past couple of seasons.

I'm right there with you, being as disappointed as ever. But have to admit, I wasn't very confident going into the season, to begin with. I predicted a 7 win season and it appears the overall regression will be a multi year repair.

This franchise needs a massive change in culture, philosophy, talent acquisition, and expectations. The entire collective face of everyone in the org, from Grier, to McDaniel, to Tua, to Tyreek, to the assistant coaches is 'we are content to be decent.' There is no one driving this entire franchise to go from good to great. Additionally the team as built is not built for the AFC East. I'm sick and tired of the South Beach excuse. The entire operation needs a rudder that drives the highest of expectations in every area of the business, on and off the field. Certainly this has not been seen on the field for far too many regimes, drafts and rosters.

McD is a ****ing narcissist and shame on most of you who didn’t see it and never even questioned the hire.
The ****ing guy who somehow sucked a dick to get this job, he was never an OC, never called a play, never even had an important coaching job in the college ranks somehow scored this HC gig. Not only that but he annointed himself the playcaller while he was going to hold the HC duties. Holy ****, BwaaaWaaaHaaaaa if that isn’t funny I don’t know what it. And most of you were giddy as little school girls about it. Well……….you happy what you got???

I don’t give two flying ****s if he all of a sudden decides to hire a playcaller, sorry asshole it’s too late, you’d only be doing it to save your paycheck. You can’t call plays and you’re not even a HC if you tried. This dumbass NEVER has this team prepared to play and start a game. A very bad sign for a HC. He motivates no one, it’s a god damn country club he’s running.

Three years totally wasted and down the drain. Once he finally gets fired he’s never gonna get another a HC gig. Offensive genius my ****ing balls

He'll be an OC someplace for next season and then a HC again in a year or two. He is thought of very highly in the league, nonetheless.

Ross could fix a lot of stuff just by hiring a new GM from the outside and let the new GM pick his HC. The biggest problem with Ross has been that he's never cleaned house. Always done it halfway ....fire the HC but kept the GM.....then fired the GM but kept the HC and on and on.....he must go outside of the building to get a new GM/HC

Pretty much nailed it. This rebuild hurt. This was supposed to be the one and it initially looked it it would be. It's mind-blowing that we're back in a terrible spot. I don't know why I'm surprised though.

Only an idiot would think highly of this guy in an OC position. Was this not enough? Sometimes these analysts and pundits just like to spew ****

Its a farce
Its a joke

During the Marino years I would laugh at franchises like Cleveland and Jets because all the dumbass mistakes they would make while losing year after year. Guess what, we are them, the joke is on me

On this, we are in total agreement.

Yeah probably.. but we had to endure those 3 years of his training on the job ..while other team might just employ him as OC where he can focus more on that side of the ball and to fix his issues with game management / play calling etc.. and build from his mistakes here
And maybe in 2 more seasons he will be ready to be a good OC.
But we cannot afford that with the expectations that Ross, Grier even McD himself setup as championship contender

I wasn't confident either. And whatever I posted (quite sparse participation I know) echoed that -- though I wanted to maintain some degree of positivity and dare I say optimism. But as I've said a number of times -- you absolutely have to be from Missouri regarding anything about this franchise.

Typical of a Clown Show, they're pretty good at the hype, and go so far as to have folks trolling here to convince us how "wonderful" things are. Ross is nothing but a contemporary carpetbagger -- an opportunist grubbing for $$$ and ego glorification. He ain't got NOTHIN' to do with the legacy of the league, it's teams and its traditions. He's devoid of football legitimacy. But the entire league is trending in that direction. And the football product is compromised because of it.

I seriously started losing interest when the fix became so obvious -- especially tilted towards the "Patriots" post 911. Oh boy... leave that alone or some dudes will show up on your door step.

We could be "compromised" on all sides. Just sayin!

Have a nice day!

This. A thousand times over.

For ****sakes, hire someone from Pittsburgh or Baltimore!!!!

I think McDaniel will get another HC opportunity and it will come off a team's attempt to build a Dan Campbell like culture that failed and they want to go in a new direction

Will it work? Eh, probably not.
