I give tony this, he has deluded this team into believeing that finsihing 7-9 or 8-8 is some amazing accomplishment which is to be celebrated. Participation Tropihes for everyone!!!! Then we're going out to McDonald's after the game fellas!!!!
Stating that the Dolphins needed to start out 0-7 so they could, " turn things around, and do things differently which needed to be done", may be the most asinine comment I have ever heard from a professional football player. If Dansby honestly believes this, he is a complete moron. Perhaps if he and many of his teammates had stayed in shape during the off season, instead of coming in overweight and out of shape, the Dolphins wouldn't have started 0-7.
Hey, a pretty well known-member of this forum wrote a large thread about how he saw this team give up on the season in the Giants game. The likes he got for that...
IMO what was needed was for Dansby and the rest of the defense to show up in shape. He admitted that he and many other defenders didn't. I think that's why we didn't have the defense we expected when the season began.
yup, and ya'll wonder why I'am so anal about that stuff..There is so much evidence to support this simple reasoning.
What was "much needed" were the changes by Sparano. What is bad, is that it took an 0-7 start to do that. THey may like him but they aren't making the playoffs or going to the SB and he needs to go, imo. We'll see ...
I get what hes trying to say.......and Im not taking what he said literally......Im taking something akin to....sometimes you gotta hit rock bottom before climbing to the top. Whatever it is....theres no question...... NONE. This team is 1000 different then the first 7. I dont see us regressing if Sparano stays....I think somehow...someway.....they have figured things out. I believe the last 4 games will prove this to be the case.....with huge franchise wins against NE and NYJ
