It already is a dark day in Miami did you not witness last night.

I love how people go overboard. It was a loss. It sucked. Special teams coach needs to get canned. Parcells already left the FO man, he's not even really doing the same job. Everything evolves in this league. I mean, look at the infamous Colts? The lost to two division opponents back to back. Sound familiar? We have things to build upon with this team and abandoning the entire plan after week 4 isn't feasible. week 8 and we're 2-5? Yea it's panic mode but not quite yet.

Look...worst case scenario is we tank this season and the coaching staff is GONE...I REALLY REALLY doubt that will happen but...

Look who is waiting to get back into coaching...

Hello, Bill Cowher!

Guys. Think about it. New England ran all over us on their scoring drive with Danny Woodhead, who is essentially a high school running back. It has come down to that....being beaten into the ground by a high school running back...

It's just all gone...

I posted this elsewhere but it seems to fit better here:

The real issue about the state of this team, and the regime in general is passing on Ryan. Sure Jake is a very good player and was the "safe" #1 pick -- but we could of drafted a true Franchise QB and taken a LT later. That decision defines this regime -- and I don't believe Henne has shown ANY signs that he is a true Franchise QB. If that's the real story, then this regime has fundamentally failed in its "rebuilding program."

Also, we've blown a number of high picks (Pat White, Turner etc.) and have definitely missed some real opportunities to build a great team. Right now we're mid pack and no better...

Last, enough of the Cowboy castoffs already -- its like we're the recycle center for their trash.

Couple the personnell screw-ups with a way too old OC and what seems to be an underperforming staff in general (starting at the top with Sparano) and don't be surprised if Bill Cowher gets handed the keys after this season -- and the Tuna will be no longer involved.

One way or another, if this team flops this year (under 9-7 and more like 7-9) the axe is coming big-time. That's my take.

As much as we all hate to admit it, Bellichick is unbelievable at turning one team's trash into a solid starter.

He does it year in and year out, and you have to give credit where it is due.

The Pats found a way to exploit the crap out of our ST...there's no other way to say it. (Well there is but I used up my swearing quota last night.)

Short of a total implosion, we'll see Sparano and crew back next year.

I like Sparano, personally.

I beg to differ. Matt Ryan has been solid...not spectacular. Jake Long is one of the top LT's in the game.

How can you possibly say you'd rather have Ryan?

I don't think I could keep caring about Dolphins football if they bring in Carl Peterson. But I'm sure they will, since Ross is, by all appearances, a complete buffoon.

If Ross brings in Peterson, I will no longer be a phins fan. Cant take the constant changes, the quick fixes.

Not to mention that Carl Peterson is an incompetent boob who ran the Chiefs into the ground and kept them there for years.

I WOULD RATHER HAVE RYAN

what's so great about ryan? over-rated!!
jake is a better player.

Jake is already the best player in the league at his position.

You can argue that Ryan is not even in the top 10.

Ryan's Career Stats:

621 of 1034 = 60% completion

7334 Yards

44 TD's 28 Int.

Historically, those are excellent numbers for a 3rd year QB.

Check out Henne's for a reality check

Ryan over Long? Simply NUTS! Long is the best draft pick this regime has ever done

Check out Jake Long's.

"When you suck long enough, you get a Hickey"

The only stats we should look at Henne's are his win/loss record. Bess makes him look good, Marshall is the best in the game. Henne could have easily thrown six pics in a Must Win game last night. Can't take the pressure, has no presence and I bet the team doesn't have confidence in him right now.

I bet you should be banned for a month for saying Henne should have had a 75 yard TD run.

The trolls come out after we lose. And if they're not trolls, then they're fair weather fans, which are worse than trolls.

Aqua, stop the "you should be banned" crap please.

Come on Aqua, stop your childish "ban anything I don't agree with." Bet you were a Jay Fiedler fan huh?

Ross clearly doesn't care about winning. He only cares about putting on a show.

Two weeks ago during the Jets games, during a crucial, game defining 3rd down I was on the edge of my seat, and a total nervous wreck. I'm sure I was borderline intolerable to be around in that moment.

Then the camera cuts to Ross in his luxury box and he's not even watching the game. He's not even looking at the field. He's eating dinner.
