    there are two things wrong with that quote. haynesworth and james. james has lead the league in rushing albeit has slowed down in his 30s. But in his prime was a fantastic athlete. and haynesworth imo is one of the DTs in football.

    He's gonna bring in guys that will give 100% all the time...I think we already have some players like that but I'd have to say that there'll be at least 10 to 12 guys gone after this season if not more.

    Ozzy rules!!

    Cameron already started the process of getting rid of players that didnt give 100%. Chambers, McMichael, etc.. There really werent that many players that didnt give their 100% effort this year.

    FFIC, your headline is exactly on point, i can only speak for myself...... man, am i grateful to have this man running my beloved dolphins, i have had so much respect and dolphin envy of parcells over the years that when i first heard the news i could'nt believe it.

    some of the regulars have heard me say this before... This team playing in this town playing in that stadium has got more negative energy to overcome then any other nfl team. YOU HAVE GOT TO BE ONE SELF MOTIVATED , PASSIONATE FOOTBALL PLAYER TO PLAY HERE, if your not, this town, this football culture, that stadium will eat you alive. Now try to imagine assembling a whole team of players that fit that discription to achieve ultimate sucess, incredibly difficult is an understatement.

    When ronnie went down, i could'nt find any hope whatsoever because in the back of my mind i always felt very strong about how negative our football culture is, i realized how that could take its toll on these weak players that come here, seriously it was a little depressing........ bill parcells is one of the very few football people that will understand this and will draft and sign accordingly.

    I could'nt tell you how pissed i was when i heard joey porter answer the question, " why did you pick miami" he answered, " well, my family has been in the cold for 7 years and i thought it would be great for them to go down there and enjoy themselves"....feel where i'am comin from.

    Were fighting so much negative karma down here that its going to take special players with high character, mental and physical toughness with a desire to forget about all of it and be able to unite as a team. I totally 100 percent believe that BILL PARCELLS IS THE ONLY MAN ALIVE THAT CAN FIND THESE TYPE PLAYERS..... Thank you Mr. H for loving our team like we do and going after the big tuna, TUNA AND DOLPHINS, whatta combination!!!!!!

    Chambers wasn't thrown out for his effort, we just got a great deal brought up. Look at how Chambers is performing in SD (not stat wise, just ask Charger fans) and you'll see that his effort is not in question.

    i think we will see players play at their highest level tommorrow, Mr. PARCELLS will have that affect on a man, i'am gonna go out on a limb a say that the two players that will impress the most tommorrow will be, michael Lehan and Jason Allen.

    If Parcells wants passion, he should consider DE/OLB Bruce Davis. The guy was firing on all cylinders and really brought an emotional punch to the BYU-UCLA game.

    I felt when he went to San Diego it would light a fire under him. I dont think his head was in it in Miami. Last few years it seemed he would take entire games off. Just my opinion
