Ross Declares The Dolphins A Super Bowl Contender

Oh boy.

I don't disagree, but just don't need to be boastful, yet.
i don't disgaree either, but you don't want to jinx yourself. i think you want to set a high expectation for the team, and put some pressure on the coach and front office to let them know your expectations are high, but maybe say it a bit differently, maybe something along the lines of "we have a very talented group of players, my expectations are high, lets see what they can do." but who knows. maybe he is right to say it the way he did
 
Glad our owner has the right goal given the business that this team is in. As McD said, it's good he believes the people he hired are doing the right things to achieve it, otherwise what is he doing?

Goes back to hiring Grier, as GM, when he could barely form a sentence on the podium for nerves, then building the trust in him to hire a coach no one else even interviewed, and draft an injured QB prospect. All 3 choices right now are starting to look better than those made by other teams, even with the QB situation what with Burrow missing so much time and Fields simply not being all that, in practice.

Nice job Mr. Ross!
 
No but you have to hand it to him though
After multiple decades of pain inflicted by those chowder-eating MF'ers I am going to relish in every opportunity to bask in the glory of their current sorry state, and here's a toast to that extending well into the future. No disrespect to the past, but I hope the devil takes his time collecting all the souls he bargained for up there. Puck the Fatriots, now and for all eternity. ( I kid, I kid.... kinda). Fluck the Patriots, Phuck 'em all day
 
There was a thread earlier this offseason about McDaniel potentially being on the hot seat. In my opinion, this is Ross setting expectations. A wildcard and a first round exit may lead to terminations. Right or wrongly (wrongly is my opinion as I love McDaniel as headcoach) this is the state of the Dolphins. A deep playoff run is expected by ownership.
 
Interesting to hear how McDaniel and Tua both reacted when told about Ross's comments too. It is all in the article:

What's the issue here exactly? Of course the goal and expectation is to win the Super Bowl. You don't do this to go and win one freaking playoff game. If you make mediocrity your goal, you'll hit it. F that. I'm with Ross. Let's go win the superbowl and anyone not on board with that conceptually can kick rocks.
