CashInFistforum_veteranOPIf we get a QB like this we are in the Super Bowl with the team we have now.
And searching for what we need at QB and should not stop until we have someone close to Marino starting for us.
This is very difficult to watch looking at the duds we have at QB on our roster atm. :pity:

I think God loved Marino too. :up:
KillerphinsNew MemberYou mean this is what we had.
We'll never have another Marino again.
He broke the mold.
MarinePhinFanNew MemberI'm sorry...there was just no one else like him before or since. Of course there were/are QB's who compare, but those who think QB's like Brady is better than this, well, they must not have lived through Marino-era.
And I really feel sorry for them too.
(And I'm just making a point. I DO NOT want to turn this into a "Brady vs Marino thread)

KillerphinsNew MemberI have every game from the 84 season on DVD. It was magical to live it the first time.
Just as fun to go back and watch these days.
EDIT: Actually I should say I have most of the games from that season. :up:
Didn't keep the losses.

TrowaNew MemberSo you're telling me that all we need to do is draft a future hall of famer at QB who will shatter all previously established NFL passing records and we'll be a winning team again? Damn man, you should work for ESPN with that kind of analysis.
He could call plays. Thats not happening under this coach. When JJ shut him down on that, everything went to sh!t. Our current coach said we had a good running game this year. I think he is a good coach but he needs to point some fingers and get some things done. We play scared.

Tin Indianforum_veteranCan we please, Please do everything we can to draft a legit, bonafide 1st round Qb this year! Trade the whole damn draft if we have to but move up and get us a QB!

Ummm...I said right in my original post:

I know we will probably never see another Marino again. I just want someone close to that good. That is not asking too much. Never stop looking for our starting QB until we have one close to as good as Dan Marino was.
Tin Indianforum_veteranChrist, I'd be happy with a Bob Griese clone. He could throw pretty well when asked.

Stay positive bro. All we need is a REAL NFL QB and it's off to the races ( and we are actually invited this time :) ). :up:
We need more than a QB. Thats maybe half of the offensive troubles. Scheme was a big problem. Predictability and the lack of ability to adjust to coverage by the coaching staff was horrible. Nobody in the history of the position would have has an outstanding year under center the way this team was coached this year.

We had a couple of big plays at the end there.....because Thigpen and Marshall went against the coaches and changed the plays.

I agree, but with the departure of Henning that problem has at least started to be addressed.

Amazing how quick Danny would make his reads. When he made the decision to throw that rocket was outta there. Avg hold time 2.5 seconds.........smokin.

RunRickyRunNew MemberCan Aikman come out of retirement?
Or Marino?
Ted Ginn makes Bryant Gumbel look like Malcom X.
My god, I forgot how quick his release was.Nobody threw the ball liked marino I mean nobody,he would even be more dominant in todays nfl than he was then.This video really makes me sad,I will never see anything close to marino before i die.
Man that 1st TD pass against the Cowgirls was vintage Marino. His release was so freakin fast!!! I got chills watching that replay! Damm I miss Marino!!!
