Oh, don't get me wrong..they're not that different. They both play on teams that have the same philosophy...great defense..running game..minimal mistakes on offense.
The Deciding factor?..performing in the clutch..in the playoffs
Why didn't the Dolphins at least get to an AFC Championship under Jay Fiedler? The defense let us down somewhat in those games...giving up 21.3 pts a game...but the offense? PATHETIC..less than 9 pts a game. Jay Fiedler?..1 TD 7 INT's..that's just embarrassing.
Jake Delhomme (3-0 in the playoffs) 3 TD's 1 INT's..that's clutch!
The numbers just don't lie. The results don't lie.
Stats don't lie, but they don't tell all the truth either...
Miami was behind in all their Post Season games with JF, at the begining of the 4th quarter (14-3, 14-7 and 27-0). Their defense unit failed to pick up any INT in those 3 games. JF had 1 TD, 1 fumble and 3 INTS in those 3 games.
Carolina was ahead in all their Post Season games at the start of the 4th quarter (23-3, 16-12, and 14-3). Their defensive unit picked up 8 INT in these 3 games (5 in the second half)...
Now in the Rams game JD had a fumble in the Rams 6 yd line and was recovered by Carolina in the endzone (Car TD). Case in point if the Rams recovered the fumble (-7 points Car), they might have won the game without going into OT and Carolina would be out of the PS. JD record would have been 2TD 1 INT and 1 Fumble...
Now the Carolina DEFENSE came to play in the PS, the Dolphins defense, with all those probowlers never showed up in theirs.
Just my view of those same stats....
GOOO FIIINZ
