The postseason awards are starting to filter in now and at least one Dolphins player is being recognized for a great season:
Cameron Wake.
Wake was today voted to the 2012 All NFL team by Pro Football Weekly and the Professional Football Writers of America. This is deserved as Wake had a career-high 15 sacks in 2012. I am assuming the big award, the All Pro awards by the Associated Press, will also recognize Wake in the coming weeks.
I am one of the 50 people that vote for All Pro and I voted for Wake. So we'll see. Meanwhile, the PFF/PFWA All NFL team and awards are below:

Belichik burnt two picks on TE in he exact draft and went 2 for 2. We've been needing a TE for ever and it hasnt been properly addressed yet.

In karloffs time frame, by the time miami closes the gap between us and the pats, it will be only to see Buffalo retake dominance over the division.
LMAO

Karloff,
When correcting previous drafts mistakes, it means your still behind, not getting ahead or even. That's how you have to look at it. With the exact same personnel we have right now today. this is where we should have at least been sitting 3-4yrs ago.
Right now in real time, this roster is at least 3yrs behind where it should have been right now, were the wisest decisions been made. So are you still ready to shout from the rooftops "we've finally arrived".
Please excuse me if Im not ready to join you.

Yesterday,
Things change fast. You rarely see ahead of time when an athlete starts their decline. Also, you don't know who might get injured at any time. I would not just assume the Pats will the throne in the coming years. It's one season at a time.
We have seen enough teams turn around fast and many good teams decline fast.

WTF are you talking about YG??, Im sure Karloff and anybody who was paying attention knew that KOA MISI was the real deal and with him out there with Dansby and Burnett, this set of LB's were projected to be an unstoppable force in hindsight.
Not mentioning On March 30, 2012 Misi was arrested for battery with serious injury. ireland sure knows how to pick 'em.

Karloff = Village Idiot

Yesterday,
Let's clarify the argument. We are where we are. I'm saying that I'm judging Ireland from 2011 and on. He needs to follow up this draft on a high note. He has a new coach that now knows the team. I'm good with letting him have this draft. I see this as Irelands do or die year. If he comes through, fine, if not, yes it is time to make a change.

Tannehill = Another Irescum bust

Some people are meek, some people are wimps, but when they can't even use their own name to attack you on an anonymous blog, well there you have your true yellow pooosies LOL. Easy to guess who they are.
Posted by: Karloff | January 13, 2013 at 10:50 PM
Yep, lets forget everything Irescum has done in helping this team for 5 years become a constant loser one season after another and wipe the slate clean again.
Spoken like a true BLIND loser!

With a year experience behind him and going into training camp as the official starter, I expect RT to perform significantly better this year. If not, it will be worrisome.
Posted by: Karloff | January 13, 2013 at 10:53 PM
I see only the people with no real job and no real education are left LOL.
The real me is checking out.
I'll let my admiring impostor have full use of my name now.
Later.

When evaluating the Dolphins can we please just ignore the facts?
Posted by: Homer | January 13, 2013 at 11:12 PM
Bye Karloff!
keep your head real high and with not much luck, a 5th st8t losing season may be around the corner for 2013 as well.
But that would be me talking in hindsight wouldnt it??!! LOL
Posted by: Karloffs Denial | January 13, 2013 at 11:12 PM
Karloff uses a different name every night. And condemns others that do the same. LMFAO!!!

There are spiders crawling out of your rectum.

Guys"Karloff" Is Odinduche.LMAO at the Ol Geezer.

Matt Ryan just put the Dolphins in THIER place with the win Saturday. Jake Long doesn't effect the score. Wrong pick.
Posted by: nickybarto | January 14, 2013 at 04:44 AM
Watching Juilo Jones play I'm convinced we should use our #1 draft pick on a big fast WR there wont be around in the second so make the sacrifice and get one. Hunter, zpatterson or Allen needs to be in a Dolphins uniform. Jennings is old Wallace is one dimensional.
