Seems like whoever we put as a coach. In the FO. Draft. Sign on. So many flops.

So much inconsistency. So much bad football.

What has it been? Why so many bad teams? Seems like every team goes up and down, but we seem to always stay 'mid-bottom' except one season we hit rock bottom and one fluky AFC East championship.

?!
 
The very simple question is: "Are we set at HC and at QB?" The answer to both atm is resounding no. Hence the record.
 
But just out of dumb luck you'd think with all the QB's we brought in, we'ld hit on one being good.. not great, just good. Then coaching and Front Office... still nothing there?! Something else has to be the problem, no? We've also changed ownership and we still have problems finding the right recipe.
 
Well many things. QB for 1. Coaches that never take chances for 2. The GM's that cant get good talent beyond a few guys.
 
12 years? Miami hasn't be good sans a couple of competitive years during the Marino era, since the early 70's. However, since we never believed in defense, Marino's talent was wasted.

We've brought a lot of QBs in, but we haven't made the big investment and drafted one in the first round. You get what you pay for(unless you're the Patriots), and we haven't made the investment to bring in the ELITE talent at QB that is needed in this league.

They get their panties wet when they see some "safe pick" cornfed sitting there in the first round and pass on a franchise QB, that's the problem. Brees is the lone exception, and we actually passed on him too. Thank our mongoloid medical staff for that one. Ross is to blame because he has failed to replace the incompetents. Granted, he tried and failed miserably at that too. Maybe he has some of the homers in his year saying 'it's okay, they just need one more year'. Hahhh.
 
Well, the front office never prepared for life after Dan Marino. In recent drafts Miami has passed on Rogers and Ryan, going back a little further the Dolphins passed on Brees. The good teams have the quarterback situation solved. More to it than just quarterback, but honestly the teams that are doing poorly generally get below average play from the position.
 
The losing mentality of this team...

It starts at loser owners like Huizenga and Ross. Wayne bought the team in 1990. We have done not one thing since then. Which leads to the.....

Head coach and management. No stability at HC.
Johnson, Wanny, Saban, Cameron, Sparano....Just a bunch of jackasses.
Don't forget all of their **** general managers.

Then it goes to passing over the QB position in the first round and going for the quick fix. We haven't drafted a QB in the first round since Marino in 1983. We've passed over so many QBs I don't have room to type them all. I mean Brees, Ryan, Rodgers, to name a few... Henne is still poor in the red zone. He's probably not the future of the Dolphins.

Then it goes to passing over play makers on offense, defense, and ST for lineman and **** CBs. I mean passing over Willis, Revis, Boldin, ect. for Brown, Allen, and Carey.

Then it goes to the Dolphins having a poor stadium with the seats too far away from the field and in need of upgrades. Although of course the city of Miami rather spend their money on the Marlins who have worst fans than the Dolphins. The food, drinks, tickets, and parking are way too expensive.

You put this all together and you get the Miami Dolphins who have not won a playoff game since 2001 and have not won the SB since 1973. The cycle continues...
