Would you trade stability for the next 10 years for a Superbowl win next year ?

[Finsational]

I see several posters who want this player or that player because it makes us contenders right now. Some of these players are old or have excess baggage and would not be in Miami for long. So would you mortgage the future for immediate results right now ? Just curious to see how people feel about it.

1 player wont win us a superbowl

Over the next ten years...

Win the Stupid Bowl 8 times.

Have 2 undefeated seasons.

Beat the Cheats 10 times in a row

by an average score of 42-3.

Reconcile with Satan down the line.

After 31 years of life losing, I think I could manage to sacrifice 10 more for a guarantee.

As if a team can decide to win now and actually do it... Worked for the Bucs and didnt work for hundreds of teams before them, including the Fins.

Too many fans are the me me,my,my . I want it now!

Stability / longevity over a superbowl now.

Because if you do it correctly, we can still win a superbowl in the 2- 6 year period.

Ffinsational, I do need to ask "how long you been at it with these Phins".

I ask because I would have pulled the "mortgage trigger" literally 100s if not 1000 times already.

As it relates to any trade off, simply yes. YES, I would mortgage the next 10 years of Dolphin mediocrity for ONE SUPERBOWL WIN.

If this team was in the position to contend I'd say go ahead and mortgage the future for that possibility. The Rams have shown that its not too difficult to get back on track after a bunch of questionable contracts and trades. Within three years you can completely revamp an NFL roster.

That being said I don't think this team is anywhere near that position and should continue down the path they're on until they've figured out what Tua is.

Now if you arguing the two extremes of something like the Giants vs Packers over the past decade I'd take the Packers. I don't think present day Giants fans can find much satisfaction in a super bowl won a decade ago with the state of the franchise that they follow. The Packers fans on the other hand at least have something to root for each year and know that most seasons they'll have meaningful games to watch well into January. And even if they never get over the hump there's good reason to believe that they can win it all every year a healthy Rodgers takes the field.

Since 92, I'm in the same amount of pain most other on this site are in. Since it has been so long I have become a little immune to it so I guess waiting another couple year for some players to mature so we can possible win 2 or 3 Superbowls vs 1 immediately seems better to me. I realize some of you guys have been waiting since the 70's and sympathize with you. Also, when I said stability, I should have used the word contenders.

Miami Heat: build. They'll do it right and win multiple titles in that 10 year span. No doubt.

Miami Dolphins: take that 1 ****ing SB.

I'd be satisfied for life.

 

[GrieseMarinoTua]

Does stability include winning more than 1 SB in those 10 years?

 

[Fred Bear]

I've seen the Dolphins go to 5 super bowls, but I need one more before I kick the bucket.
