JJ spawned Wanny....so not sure why anyone would say Wanny...
My thoughts as well. To me he was the beginning of our lengthy downfall. He was the first domino to fall
JJ spawned Wanny....so not sure why anyone would say Wanny...
If taking a team that made the playoffs 6 out of the 7 years prior to his regime, and in four short years turned them into bottomfeeder is successful then, I guess your right?
No.........Wannstedt taking over this team was the worst thing that ever happened to this franchise.
I am not a Wanny fan, but he did take the team to the playoffs a few times, and actually was part of the last time Miami won a playoff game. Many were even predicting the Dolphins to actually be in the playoffs again in 2004, then he lost his best player, and unlike the spineless lying HC in Alabama that ran away the moment things got hot, Wanny stayed put and tried to compete.
Is Saban a better HC then Wanny, yes, worlds better. Is Saban a better talent evaluator then Wanny, I would like to think so, yet Saban was not able to get as much success from the team, missed on being able to get not one, but two franchise QBs looking at him right in his two faces, and when he took over the Dolphins, there were plenty of players that were taken by Wanny, and continued to stay until they left, while EVERY SINGLE PLAYER the great Saban picked, fizzed out after a few year, the longest was Brown, which he got 2nd overall, then even there, Rodgers would have been a HECK of a better pick.....Failure as a NFL HC, as a GM, as a standup guy, and as human being.
After he left, Miami went down hill, and started to for the 1st time, have multiple losing seasons, thanks to hhaving to get rid of most of the picks Saban made, and start all over again.
Oh and looky there, Saban is just 1 behind Wanny for the lead in the poll...guess if your not an Alabama fan, the choice is clear...![]()
I hate the Saban Rodgers argument.
Typical hindsight bull****.
Cam Cameron needs to be added to this poll... That 'era' of Dolphins football was embarrassing.
Saban is listed twice.
I'm a Dolphan. The one over-riding thing those guys all have in common is that the local m0r0ns in the press SLIMED AND MALIGNED THEM and completely disregarded
ALL of their accomplishments.
Compared to other NFL teams the Dolphins have done well most years EXCEPT for with one Head coach and that guy isn't even listed there.
The guy I would erase would be cam cam-m0r0n followed by Tom Olividatti.
The only guy on that list I would want erased is Philbin. He is the only one who screwed up as badly as he did and shows up on that list.
Wayne was a great owner, most of those coaches won plenty of games and took us to the playoffs at one point. Saban left after he heard that Wayne was selling the team.The local press have created a pathetic sad story that has almost no connection with reality regarding the Miami Dolphins
LOL...I guess Rodgers was picked with the 3rd overall pick....
Only proves he is no better then Wanny drafting, he did not have more success then Wanny in wins/losses, did miss on yet another QB, when he had a chance at Brees, and unlike Wanny, told everyone he was not leaving the Dolphins, then took off.
I would have respected the guy more if he had just said I am being offered a position with Alabama (An extremely prestigious job), and considering he is not cut out to be in the NFL, I would have had more respect for him, but he acted like a 5 year old caught with his hand in the cookie jar.
Selling the team had nothing to do with...He didn't like Miami and was offered a much better job.
