Ross: Marshall was going to be cut/Other issues addressed

sprinkled. I disagree, i think ireland has just as much opinion as philbin, if philbin says hes thinks flynn has the "potential" to be a franchise qb, ireland can just turn around and say we need you to be "sure" and thats the deal breaker right there. Ireland will always bump heads with our heads coaches because of his powers. Give philbin final say and flynn is our starting franchise qb day 1.

pretty sure everybody needed to see conviction from philbin on flynn. that conviction wasn't there, we moved on. let's not single out ireland when i'm pretty sure it's been reported that philbin wasn't certain flynn would be an upgrade to matt moore. i guess it's possible that it was entirely ireland's fault, but right now it's just your uncorroborated theory.

Do you realize how much you contradict yourself in this post? You accuse Ross of only trying to sell tickets and imply that winning isn't the most important thing to him but when he says that the organization doesn't feel that Flynn isn't much of an upgrade you bash him for not signing him. If he was just trying to sell tickets don't you think he would have signed Flynn to give people like yourself hope that Flynn was some kind of messiah so he could sell more tickets? How does trading Brandon Marshall give you evidence that Ross is only about selling tickets? Fans are practically committing suicide over the fact that the Dolphins traded one of the most overrated receivers in the league. Finally, the most damning evidence against your claim that Ross only cares about selling tickets and not about winning is that he didn't pursue Tim Tebow when he became available. What player out there, other than Peyton Manning, would have put more people in the seats even if it would have been a horrible football decision?

Now your just putting words in my mouth. I never said ross was all about ticket sales, i said from a business perspective he has to say whats best for ticket sales. Marshall overrated? did you watch the probowl? when marshall wants to play he can play. He didnt believe in his qb, never did. Now you will see marshall go to chicago and light it up and the pain will be even worse for dolphin fans. Just the thought that the dolphins traded away a top 5 wr in the league for nothing is mindboggling. DId i just hear tim tebow? really?

First of all, learn how to spell. It is hilarious that you misspelled the word dumb. Secondly, I had no problem with the protesters. In fact, I supported the protest. I only wish more people would have showed up. Even though the protest was meager, it forced the organization to respond and explain themselves.

i got news for ross and ireland, every qb is a gamble. Andrew luck is a gamble, robert robert griffin is a gamble, matt flynn is a gamble. There all gambles because u dont know how good they will be in the pros, if anything matt flynn was the lesser of the gambles because he has already shown how dominant he can be in the nfl. If they are scared to take gambles, they will forever be loosers, if u wanna win u gotta takes chances. Look at sparano, he never took chances, he never went for the win, and thus he was a loosing coach in the nfl every year he was in. except for the 1st year where bill parcells was telling him what to do.

As you said, they are all gambles, so why are you saying they don't gamble?

The fact they didn't offer him starters money should tell you that alone.

Ireland didnt offer him starter money, not they. Secondly, why would you not offer the guy starter money if you are bringing him to be your starter? makes no sense to me but hey the dolphins did start the season 0-7 last year, they must know what there doing right ??

The pro bowl? You mean that glorified scrimmage? I suppose that if Marshall would have believed in his QB he wouldn't have dropped those seven touchdown passes that hit him right in the hands then? By the way, do top five players at any position only play when they want to? What makes a player great is that he plays hard all the time not just when he feels like it. I could easily name at least ten receivers I would take over him in a heartbeat.

It sucks when you can't win the argument doesn't it? You should just walk away while you still have a shred of dignity.
 
Ross was merely playing the spin doctor because he knows how pissed off Dolphin fans are. He made an attempt to cool things down and if you believe everything Ross told the Dolphin fan then I have some land I'd like to sell you.
 
Wish Ross addressed Ryan Clark's comments

He kind of made it obvious we are looking at Tannehil at no 8 IMO

Seems like the only reason they brought Alex smith in was incase the miners got Peyton there wouldn't be a market for smith and we could get him really cheap
