The season was over when we beat the Vikings

[Despacio]

When we won a meaningless game late last year against a poor Minnesota Vikings team in dramatic fashion and Stephen Ross declared like a moron an extension for Joe Philbin to the press, you knew, I knew, we all knew deep down inside nothing good would come of this.

For the third straight year Joe was going to end the season at .500 or worse. His team once again coming up empty in the run for a wildcard spot. His team once again having slow starts and no emotional response.

Then we were all sold hype this offseason, distracted by yet another big free agency splash. But we knew deep down inside we were fooling ourselves as long as Joe Philbin shaped the identity of this team. That no matter how much talent we acquired, it's all worthless with the wrong leadership.

So as we sit out of the playoffs at 4-7, is anyone surprised? We knew this was a lost season last season. A whole year wasted.

The best part of all, Ross declared it an early Christmas present announcing Philbins extension after that Minnesota victory.

Merry Christmas!

This is exactly right. There were threads on this board with people not understanding why Ross did that w another game to go. And the way we won I believe was a blocked punt for a safety - like it was far from a convincing win.

Many people were saying "why handcuff yourself" declaring Philbin was coming back. He got caught up in the emotion of the game - he's not fit to run a football team.

Thanks Mr Ross, another great decision. Another wasted season. Ross won't learn a thing. He will bring Tannenbum back of course so the cycle on ineptitude can continue.

Cause Dan Campbell has really made a difference.

Not surprised in the least. This is Miami Dolphins football.

Our team is weak and stupid just how philbin wanted it. I remember when we hired that fool, thought it was strange he was an "offensive coordinator" in GB that didn't call the plays. We hired a guy that was just along for the ride in GB and had absolutely no business running a team
