    Are you saying it would have been wise to purposefully blow up our offensive line? Because that's what would have happened had Ireland let Philbin have his way. Way to go Philbin!! You single handedly would have been responsible for the departure of our 2 best linemen; Long and Incognito. All the while ordering a "Code Red" on Martin. Yep....great HC we got

    Yeah yeah whatever. Common sense says that fans don't know ish about running a profession football team but hey here we are, thousands of opinions and everyone swears theyre an expert.


    I know know what it is. You just don't wanna reveal your methods. Don't be like that bro, crystal ball, Ms Cleo, what is it?

    Same source as you. Because, you know... you believe your opinion is the right one, and we're on the right track. So clearly you have some special ability to see the future too.

    Are we done here now? Yup, I think so.

    They haven't produced a winner in 5 years, which in NFL terms is an eternity.

    I'm amazed that Ireland still has a job after the 2013 offseason. We had the worst production out of any NFL team with our draft picks, his "upgrades" at LB ranked at or near the bottom at their respective positions, he assembled the worst OL in Dolphins history and he ignored Philbin's wishes to get rid of Cogs who created one of the biggest distractions in the NFL this year.

    I guess I shouldn't be surprised by anything with this franchise, Ross hasn't shown good leadership since day 1. He is public enemy #1.

    The benefit of doubt you willingly give them year after year is nothing short of amazing. You continue to insist that fans know nothing while year after year the fans continue to basically be right. I suppose though if the fans just would have given Tony Sparano their blind loyalty we'd be competing for Super Bowls right now. He was definitely a great hire because Bill Parcells hired him and knows more about football than anybody here. So he couldn't have been a bad hire. That's not possible. The poor man only made it three and half years through his slow and steady approach. Jeff Ireland was also hired by Bill Parcells. So he's definitely a great GM who just needs a few more years to build that Super Bowl winner. Never mind that his slow and steady approach will take longer than most players' careers last. What did we just finish year six of the Ireland reign?

    The proof is that Ireland was responsible for bringing in these players..Brandon Marshall, Karlos Dansby, Reggie Bush, Vontae Davis, Kevin Burnett..and all we're let go when Philbin got here..if you read between the lines there are plenty of signs that Philbin wanted to go in a different direction from those players..

    Ask yourself this, from a GM perspective, why would you let go of Marshall, Dansby, Reggie, Vontae, they were productive players from a personnel standpoint, and they were your guys to begin with.

    Ireland is to blame for some things and has his issues, but imo, those departures are not on him, and if anything you have to include those players being aquired in his own evaluation..

    When you are not a good GM, you do things like this. Jeff Ireland is nowhere close to being a good GM. He's among the worst in pro sports at his job.
