I realize that this will be met with some skepticism, but hear me out. The Dolphins were a team going nowhere, not under the current regime. We needed a change. That is no secret.

However, what appears to be a bit of a secret is the reason that Miami's offense plummeted to new lows. Don't kid yourself, Ricky protected Jay Fiedler and the offensive line. Teams were afraid of his ability to beat them if they blitzed. Without that threat teams pinned their ears back and made a bad offense look terrible.

Had Ricky still been a Dolphins on week one there is a good chance that Miami wins at least 9-10 games just like every other season under Wannstedt (They won 4 as bad as they were and were within 7 points 6 times). If that would have happened there is no promise that Nick Saban is the new Miami Dophins head coach.

The bottom line is this. Nick Saban is an excellent coach. Every old time Dolfan I talk to is more excited than they have been in years. They comapre him and his personality to a young Don Shula. If they are half right we have alot of good times ahead of us. Oh yeah, and thank Ricky for his bong tour. Sometimes you have to take a step or two back to make a huge leap forward.
 
I cant believe anyone would try to spin Rickys quitting on the team as a good thing

at this point with it in the past? .....we definitely wouldn't have ronnie brown thats for sure....who knows
 
I don't know if I would say it was a good thing, but the horrible incident did lead to good things. If he didn't retire, we may not have got Saban or Ronnie Brown. Or a lot of other pluses we recieved during the offseason.
 
Ricky's Bong Tour, creative, but pathetic way to put it. How about we say, Randy's Smack my Wife Tour? (being that Randy has smacked his wife more then Ricky has hit the Bong) I think that has more of a ring to it.
 
Gee, what a novel idea that's only been the subject of a thread topic about, oh ... 500 FARKING TIMES.

No offense but this same thing has been said many, many times on here. You gotta try and find positives for Ricky screwing us over last year

Well if you think about it in another way than what your thinking of Ricky quitting then I can see the Ricky (taking a break from footbll) helped the team. Without him leaving Wanny would still be here, maybe Fiedler, and Rick Spielman would still be here. And Ronnie and Saban wouldnt be here.

hindsights always 20/20... and you would have probably been a playoff team if he didnt do that. You say feidler might of still been in Miami, and im not trying to be a dic*, but the dropoff of fiedler to feeley/Gus is minimal.
