Miami media playing down Culpeppers' victory over them

Culpepper's performance a bit deceiving

.

Culpepper did nothing Sunday to prove the Dolphins were wrong to release him. Never mind the five touchdowns -- three rushing, two passing -- against an injured Miami defense that gets older and worse by the down. Culpepper completed all of five passes in Sunday's 35-17 dismantling of Miami. Five. And none for more than 27 yards. It is nearly impossible to win an NFL game with that little from your quarterback.

But the fact a bad Raiders team was able to blow out the Dolphins on the road with their backup quarterback and their backup running back says more about how terrible the Dolphins are everywhere than it does about how good Culpepper was on this afternoon. And the fact a still-gimpy Culpepper couldn't even run away from a pregnant Keith Traylor on one scamper tells you Culpepper is still not nearly what the Dolphins thought they were getting when they welcomed him into their huddle -- and may never be.

The Answer has always liked Culpepper, and knew he wasn't close to being 100% last year.

Also looks like he may have taken the starting job from McCown for good - this Raiders team is going to be dangerous and is going to win the division in 2007. Book it!!

The Answer is wrong. Culpepper blows and the Raiders are going nowhere.

The End.

i like culpepper, and he make a couple of nice throws yesterday, but the phins' defense is as bad as i have ever seen. culpepper is nowhere near healthy right now. he only completed 5 passes in 12 attempts. granted, he didn't need to complete more than that, but that won't be the case against a team that can defend the run.

Since Justaqueer and mystyicgaylover are bed buddies, I'm sure both can prove their accusations!!
