Stop Fussing about the O-line; It's All About the QB

After reading his post it becomes clear his title was meant as tongue in cheek type sarcasm. You're making it more complicated than it is bro.

Exactly! This poster must be a fan of Long over Ryan. This post is made for the Ryan over long folks.

This has been the mantra of the majority of this board all offseason. "We needed Ryan and not Long" "Doesn't matter what else we have as long as we don't have a good QB" "QB is the most important position on the field" "Every Superbowl winner had a great QB". Well let's see how good a QB is (and Chad has been playing good) if they can't run the ball or give him time to throw.

It is better if you just get to the point. Here let me paraphrase for you.

Although it will be painful for me as a fan to watch, I am going to be laughing at all of you that have screamed that we need to draft a QB instead of an offensive lineman. I believe Henne is going to play well enough to take most teams to the playoffs, but our pathetic line will hold us back. Just like it has held us back for the last 10 years.

Is that what you meant to say?

Kindof, but not totally. We did draft an OL this year. It just got on my nerves of all the people that thought QB play was the most important thing on a team. It can turn a bad team into a good team, but a QB alone cannot take you to the top. He can't consistently (year after year) produce without a good OL, defense and/or a running game.
 
Good Oline= Better QB. As we all saw what happened to Brady, arguably the best QB in NFL history when the Giants man handled him. Put pressure on any QB and they will do bad...u need good protection to help your QB. point blank.

He's always struggled when he gets even "moderate" pressure applied. He's made a career out of standing in the pocket without so much as having to shift his feet and when he's not standing back there all day he's dumping off short passes that creates YAC. If you can prevent Brady from having all day to throw and keep those 5 yard passes than turn into 10 yards to a minimum you make Brady look like the over-rated QB he is. Don't get me wrong, he's a really good QB but to be mentioned along the greats of all time like he has is comical.

I understand what he is saying. Peope have been complaining for a long time that you don't take a LT over a QB because QB is the most important position and that you can fill in the line elsewhere. Now, we have a QB playing well, but a shaky offensive line around him, so we will see how right those people who were against offensive lineman were. IF they were.

Yeah, this is pretty much how the Dolphins are right now. Pretty sad. It's come down to "The Dolphins are going to let us all down. So how about we try to win in some other way? I think the QB will fail. If I'm right, I win. Touchdown! If the OL fails us, you win." I'm sorry, but that is just sad. The Dolphins have failed for so long that it has come to this. I personally have no idea what to expect this season. If they go over 8-8, I will be pleasantly surprised.
