    Your 1-11 against teams over .500 is wrong.

    To be honest I wish none of this was true but facts are facts.
    Now can they change the narrative?I don't see it but would love to be wrong.

    Dolphins' record against top teams might be worse than you think

    It’s not good, but it’s not 1-11. You either read 247Sports.com wrong or they are wrong.

    Maybe they meant playoff teams but either way it's unacceptable

    I will admit losing against those teams with winning records is a concern but they are winning teams for a reason, are they not?

    Kansas City
    Buffalo
    Baltimore
    San Francisco

    Not only are they winning teams, they are perineal Super Bowl contenders. We had a rookie head coach (2nd year last season) going up against established head coaches with years of successful experience. These head coaches are expected to stop an offensive powerhouse like the Dolphins. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be as revered as they are.

    Now, McDaniel does need to find a way to beat these teams and with experience in games such as these, he’s going to learn how or he’ll end up being fired.

    In Miami’s first 30 years of existence, they had 2 head coaches, 5 Super Bowl appearances and the 2 championships. In the Dolphins last 29 years, we’ve had 8 head coaches, several playoff appearances and only what, 2 or 3 post season wins?

    if we don’t start having some consistency at head coach, we’re not ever going to get past average.

    Yes. Facts make it better. He’s not 1-11 against teams over .500.

    Get this. The Bills, last season, were something like 2-4 against teams with LOSING records. The Dolphins were something like 11-1.

    This year, the 49ers are 1-2 against teams with winning records.


    The entire “teams over .500” mantra is just stupid media speak. The 1999 Rams faced one team with a winning record that regular season (and I believe lost). Should we take their SB away?

    Dude why do u sugarcoat everything.
    U don't even make sense.The Rams had to beat good teams.to get the SB correct?
    We can't beat any good teams.
    This philosophy of speed and no meat in the line doesn't work against good teams.
    Until they do it's a fact.

    Common sense, reality, and objectivity is “sugar coating”?

    The Rams, like most SB winning teams, had very easy regular season games.

    The 1999 Rams beat an old Jeff George Vikings team. A Trent Dilfer led Bucs team, and a pretty good Titans team in the post season.
    Again, they beat one team in the regular season with a winning record. Should we take their SB away?

    To be fair...

    It was not that Tua was too sensative to play for him...

    Flores was asked what QB's he wanted in the draft and he told Grier and Ross..

    Then they picked the one QB that Flores said he did not want.

    So it comes down to a fundamental difference in what kind of team Flores wanted the Dolphins to be.

    Well nothing he does screams "I want a Super Bowl."

    I just think he's more than happy with all the money and a team that is pumped by pundits as being good.
