http://www.nfltouchdown.com/miami-dolphins-2009-preview/ I normally avoid these sort of articles as there is so much information just on thePhins, they are a bit superflous, however this one is well written and witty: "Imagine you are in charge of Marketing for the Miami Dolphins 2009 season: Hmm...some people would prefer "Chad's weak arm" be posted on billboards.. This, if it were a thread topic, would have hundreds of posts: I know I'd have booed more....
Unlike other articles padre, I found this one an interesting read... Thanks Padre... a little sarcatic then gets down to earth...and vise a versa... I like this little nugget... That their in a nutshell is how you become a "Championship" caliber team and since Shula's era we have not had a coach that was willing to partake in this 4 year cycle... and don't tell me that JJ was one, because WH had to persuade JJ to stay an extra year...
The writer did have a good flair, in sports that is hard to find. We'll see, we still have three major transitions to go through, A) Qb B)Pass rushing OLB C) Running back. JJ was a great judge of talent whose schemes the NFL caught up with, that is football death in the NFL, Wanny then rode the team into the ground with what was left of JJ's talent. And notice how farsighted Tuna and Ireland are, the real damage of the Wanny Era was the failure to develop a Qb with a long term horizon, that killed us during Saban and Cameron's time here, so Ireland and Co picked up Henne, White and signed Pennington, error rectified. I also believe he hit the nail on the head about Joey Porter and Charlie Anderson, Porter wore down, Anderson never stepped up and we signed JT and Wake as insurance..
