Theismann: Dolphins are the best

[WG]

After six weeks, some teams are starting to assert themselves as legitimate contenders, while others may have to start looking at their future.

As I see them, here are the NFL's top five teams:


Jay Fiedler will have to stand and watch Ray Lucas lead the Miami offense in his absence.
1. Miami Dolphins
They are the best team in football. Their greatest challenge will be getting through the next month without one of their stars, quarterback Jay Fiedler, who will be out at least four weeks with a broken right thumb. Dave Wannstedt said he feels comfortable with Ray Lucas taking over for the time being. Remember, the Dolphins are a run-based offense with Ricky Williams. Offensive coordinator Norv Turner will keep the offense running smoothly until Fiedler returns. While they run the ball on offense, the Dolphins stop the run on defense. They have two terrific cover corners in Sam Madison and Patrick Surtain and a middle linebacker, Zach Thomas, who makes tackles from sideline to sideline. The Dolphins are a complete team.


We have a tough game ahead of us!

Well since I think Theisman is the biggest idiot in the broadcast circles today I wouldn't take too much he say seriously.

Who here besides be can't stand that arrogant jerk?

[WG]

I've never been a big fan of him.

[THATHURMANATOR]

I absolutly hate that guy!!! IMO he makes that dimwit Madden look like a genious!

[WG]

He still knows a little bit about football.

A veeerrrrry little bit IMO. It does not take a genius to say the dolphins a good team. Any moron can see that!

Well, if that's what Joe thinks then I say the Bills should just skip the game and spend the time on the beach. I think Joe Theismann is a moron! Not only am I not interested in what he has to say, I can't stand listening to his annoying voice while he's saying it! He could be praising Doug Flutie and I still wouldn't listen to him! He's an @ss, IMHO.

I can see why he'd a praise a fellow midget QB with a rag arm just like his!

Joe Theisman is the biggest moron in broadcasting ... period. I think he is the only person on the planet that thinks Tom Brady has a stronger arm than Bledsoe. This is what he actually said last year when he was broadcasting the pats-rams game last year. I couldn't believe what I was hearing ... and I'm still looking for whatever he smoked before the game .... that's some serious s%^&!

ESPN's whold broadcast teams sucks! They brag about the guys in their game like they are the best in the NFL and then the following week they do it again.....etc.

I liked Theismann as a player, but YIKES!!! He is an absolute moron when he broadcasts. But come on now, ESPN's entire broadcast team doesn't suck. What about Buffalo's own Paul McGuire?? IMO Paul's pretty good. He was when he broadcasted in Buffalo. Him and Theismann do go at it quite often.

Sorry, Miss B, that's Eden's own Paul Maguire.

I like Maguire, but I get tired of him and Joey arguing about EVERY little thing. Reminds me of my ex wife.

Sunday NFL Countdown is still 50x's better then the NFL Show on Fox Sports Net. Tommy Davidson, and Michael Irvin are MORONS. The rest of the people on there I can stand. Demarco Farr or what ever his name is would be good on ESPN if they'd get rid of Tom Jackson, or anyone except for Chris Berman - because no one circles the wagons like the Buffalo Bills.
