    Miami falling apart

    I was in Miami this weekend and the sports articles in the Herald were all very Jerry Sullivan-esque. They were all doom and gloom for the Dolphins. Unlike Sully's critique on Ryan Miller, they were actually point on. They focused on the hopeless situation the QB situation really is and how they feel they got George W'd with the status on Culpepper's 2nd knee surgery in November. They are annoyed that its not simply the QB position that has turmoil, but almost every key position that has some level of ambiguity to it. It's quite ugly and those in Miami seem to be confessing next year is going to be pretty horrible.

    I wonder why the Miami fans that venture onto this board aren't so easy to accept the truth of their situation and continue to write "Bills worst in the East." FeelthePain, any response?

    Will FTP accept this as fact or will he spin it into a delusional world conquest for the Fins?

      The ultimate question is what QB will they get NEXT year that's either too old or injured? Maybe the prototype is an old, busted up signal caller!!

        NO, if you ask him the Dolphins are going to the Super Bowl just like Peter King said last year.

        But then again, his family does follow the Redskins so he would know.

          If they can get some sort of QB in there who can manage the game, they won't be as bad as you make it seem

            If they get Green they will be fine in the short term, if not, they will be hurtin this season.

              What about the Oline? Who's going to protect for the QB? Seems to me like even if you got Peyton Manning in there...with no one to protect him, he'd have a hard enough time just surviving - much less trying to be crisp on passes...the one good thing for you guys is that the draft has some good quality guards that you should be able to grab even in the 3rd rd or so...

                  If they don't help out their OL, it won't matter who plays QB. Right now, you have guys like Anthony Alabi, Chris Liwienski and Joe Toledo at the top of the depth chart. That is the biggest issue they will have to deal with.

                    They will be fine on the O-line. They were fine last year once Joey was in there

                      Really??? Is that why Culpepper was struggled all day against us when we had...what? 7 sacks or so? And is that why Joey had a 0.0 rating against us??? Seems to me like he was being rushed and harassed all game...

                          Yeah, but you didn't believe the SB hype last year about the Dolphins, this Bill fans believe, typical!!

                            Well why don't we wait till the season starts before we live off the If word! Cause we could say "If" Daunte returns to his 2004 form....but we don't know that yet do we?
