"I'm weighing my options now," Williams said during a Sunday night appearance on WSVN-Ch. 7. "Last year ended kind of rough, and I was thinking this might be it, but I think watching the playoffs last year and seeing what we're doing this offseason has got me excited to play some more football."
And the physical toll?
"Obviously this season is going to have a lot to do with that," he said, "but right now I feel I could do it."
i hope he stays with the phins
CitizenSnipsNew MemberWe'll see. We certainly didn't run well down the stretch with him. I think him staying depends on Ronnie staying (or who we replace ronnie with if that happens)

True, but now Ricky/Ronnie wont have to deal with the other teams stacking the box. I remember a couple of times where the opponent stacked 9 in the box against Ricky after Ronnie went down.
dolfan22subscriberI mentioned this last year . If anyone has not listened to Ricky with Jim Mandich on his show , you have missed Ricky really opening up.
I feel if this season goes well ( team record , his own health ) Ricky LOVES football and realizes he will never get a year back if he retires. It won't surprise me if he is a productive Dolphin for two more years.
Two more years if things go right , sounds like a return to the big game to me ;)

Certainly. We've constantly had to deal with that since 2002 with Chambers and Gadsden.

i wouldnt mind ricky williams becoming the dolphins all time leading rusher, on the way to a super bowl this year....... or next. im not picky.
Dolphins1Beatlesforum_veteranHe is only about 970 yards away from Csonka's record. I doubt we'll see it this year but if he stays in 2011 then we could see some history.

Phin-o-ramaNew Memberonce again...ricky will continue to outshine ronnie this year
MikeHonchosubscriberAwesome read. Good to know this is Ricky's mindset. I wish him much health and success this coming season, so hopefully he does stay for the next.
Headcoach material wouldn’t want to work somewhere they’re not trusted with actual football decisions.

no we didn't run all that great with him down the stretch but we were also playing musical chairs with the gaurds and center at that time.i wouldn't be against him coming back.

yeah 1,000 yds is not good at all, lets cut him and put ronnie so he can try to finish a season :shifty:
Frumundah FinnaticNew MemberThe RB situation does depend on how Ronnie does this year, neither Ricky or Ronnie are getting younger and I feel only one of them will be back next year.

Yet Ricky still managed 17 TD's and almost 1900 yards.

Ricky carrying the load. Favorite Dolphin of all time, so this pleases me.
Georgia Finforum_veteranIf he does, I hope he's corrected the fumbling issues he ended the year with, otherwise, no thanks. Gotta get Polite and Hilliard some touches too.
It's the gift that keeps on giving.
