Remember consistent winning seasons? Remember Don Shula and all his wins? How about Dan Marino and his records? I know I took ALL of that for granted and thought we would always be a good team. I was a baby when the Dolphins were great in '71, '72 and '73 and 11 and 14 when they lost in their last two visits to the Superbowl, and that was 22 years ago. So I really do not remember any greatness by this team. Yeah, there were close calls with Marino but the Bills always won. And then we had that stretch of horrible losses in the first round of the playoffs, ending in 2001.
So it's been five years since we were a playoff team which matches our longest playoff drought from 1985 to 1990. The thing is it seems like it will be another few years before we will be a compettitive team and in today's fickle league, it may be longer than that with coaching changes and free agency.
I'm not mad anymore. I'm almost sad and definitely not very hopeful. At least this site is here for us Phreaky Phin Phans to vent.
