This is my official retraction thread...

[holdhotter]

Yo, you and all your prayers aren't going to get the Dolphins in the playoffs. Look, the sooner all you insane optimists realize that this team is going NOWHERE...the sooner you will enjoy the season ahead of you...because if you don't..stay tuned..they will disappoint you in the end.

very well said

You guys have got to be kidding me. Some dolphin fans have got to be the worst. Its clear that our problem is the line. They are young it takes time to come together. Wade Smith was one of biggest problems and when McIntosh comes back which will be soon that will fix the left tackle. I mean it is gonna take a little time for the QB and RB and WR to get on the same page. Yes A.J has been here through training camp and preseason but it will take a little more time than that. Our defense is playing strong. Despite the pick by A.J ran back for the TD the offense put us in the position to win the game and we fell short. Guys look at the big picture. T BO = OUT, Surtain = OUT, Howard = OUT, and our defense didn't give up a TD. It will only get better it can't get any worse. Our arch rivals started out 0-2 and won the superbowl.

Gosh you are clueless huh??
You don't understand that there have been wayyy too many changes on offense for it to gel this year! The regular season has started. We are not New England.
Couple that with bad selections for offensive linemen and soon, a defensive breakdown....we will be lucky to win six or seven games this year. 8-8 would be a miracle IMO.

PLEASE remeber that the defense you see now is equivalent to what we always see this time of year. Our defense is INCAPABLE of playing lights out for a full 16 game season. So don't think this is something new and improved that will last!!

Hmmmm....lets review what I posted...




Read the post before you're so quick to criticize...maybe if we had Bill Belnichick we'd be good...and I'm perfectly happy being an optimisisist by the way.

Hmmm...I did read what you posted, here's a summary:

This can happen....well, maybe not...but hey it can happen.

Last statement optimistic...your still an insane optimist.

I would like to officially retract any statement I made that implied the Dolphins were underrated, would surprise some teams, or win more than 8 games. The way the offense looked tonight, we'd be lucky to win 1. Our defense was stout as ususal, but how long can they hold up? I say we use this season as an extended preseason. Play Sage with the first team, then rotate Jay and AJ with the backups. Everyone gets PT, and maybe we get a better gauge of our needs for next year. Besides, how much worse can it get? Tonight was embarassing to our team and to us fans.

Very well said. It's time to look towards rebuilding, even though most of you think thats a dirty word.

errrr. I'll give up all hope around week 6 or 7 if we are still losing.
It was only the second game.

Name how many 0-2 teams in history that have won a Super Bowl ????

 

[dreaded34]

Well...this Miami 0-2 team won't be one of them regardless of history.

What's your problem man? Call me an insane optimist? I guess you don't quite understand that somethings no matter how unlikely they are can happen. I said I DONT THINK THINK ITS GOING TO HAPPEN. It has happened in the past, so you can't discount it, thats all.

Bump for relevance to this week.

...maybe if we had Bill Belnichick we'd be good...

You don't realize how far this team has fallen or how further it can fall.
Having a good coach is only a start. Having decent owner who cares about winning and not the almighty dollar is the real key.

wheres the outrage? Don't you think Wayne H. owes it to you? Why hasen't he spoken?

Jumping off the bandwagon already?

The bandwagon crashed in a burning fire of cow manuer.
