What must happen for the Dolphins to be Super Bowl good?

The NFL season ends today with the crowning of the Super Bowl 47 champion.

Tomorrow we begin a new season. As I write here many fans and even some teams will study the Ravens and 49ers to see if they can find clues or reasons both those teams are Super and everyone else, well, isn't.

So I gave you my opinion. What's your's?

What must happen for the Dolphins to become a Super Bowl team? No, I don't believe the distance between them and the playoffs is that great. Three or four more wins and the Dolphins are a playoff team. But a Super Bowl team?

That gulf is wide, in my opinion.

Still, can the Dolphins bridge that gap in a couple of years, as the 49ers went from 6-10 in 2010 to the NFC championship game in 2011 and the Super Bowl today?

What must happen for that to happen?

Many People from many different parts of the Country here. Good.

[jeff]

Well, Buffalo, of course!

But I'm talking about this generic 'up north' term people use as if there's some kind of magical line where suddenly it's just icy, snowy, and thoroughly miserable all winter.

It just isn't like that, and here in the Northeast we've had virtually NO snow the past few years, at least south of New England.

I just find a lot of people in Florida have a woefully erroneous idea of what things are really like weather-wise for millions of us "up north." Just as I'm offended as a Florida native by some of the stupid things said about Miami or elsewhere down there.

[jeff]

Oh, and I live outside NYC (Long Island)--not in the city itself.

[ALoco]

WHAT DOES THE TERM (( FLORIDA NATIVE )) ,MEANS ?

[jeff]

What does the term 'native' mean?? It means you were BORN there.

Where did you learn English? In a cave?

[ALoco]

JEFF,

I DON'T THINK THE TERM (( FL NATIVE )) MEANS YOU WERE BORN THERE,

I THINK THE MEANING SHOULD BE BROADER THEN JUST BORNED THERE ,THEN MOVED THE NEXT DAY TO NJ .......

[jeff]

Born there and spent the first 25 years of my life there.

Does that satisfy your parameters?

(and "borned??" really? I would advise you not to comment on others educational status, dude)

[oscar canosa]

I don't like mayonnaise at all. I was a rich kid. Very finicky. I omly eat meat. NYstrip.

[jeff]

I should probably ass here that while many of you are totaly wrong about the weather up north, I should add that people up here are NOT smarter than down there.

Seems like you have a pretty good example of that posting on this board.

(in truth, there's just as many bright people and morons either place)

[jeff]

"ADD" here, lol.

That's got to be my favorite typo ever!

[ALoco]

JEFF,

I THINK WHEN YOU SAY ,(( SPENT 25 YEARS THERE )) CONNECTING TO PEOPLE ,THAT SATISFY MY PARAMETERS ....

BTW,DID YOU FINISH HIGH SCHOOL IN YOUR NATIVE LAND FL ?

[oscar canosa]

If Ireland brings Wallace in it means he thinks Mike fits the Sysem. Now if MW doesn't work out don't start complaining, Ireland must be fired! etc.

[ALoco]

JEFF,,, WHAT KIND OF AN ENGLISH WORD IS (( ASS HERE )) ?

[SUPPORTER OF MAYONNAISE]

SENOR OSCAR CALUSA,

IT DOES NOT MATTER WHAT YOU THINK OF MAYONNAISE. ONLY THT YOU PRAISE AND OBEY IT AS THE ELDERS HAVE DICTATED! YOU MUST KEEP THESE OTHER THOUGHTS TO YOURSELF AT ALL TIMES!

NOW YOU WILL HAVE TO GO TO PUBLIX AND SEEK FORGIVENESS FROM MAYONNAISE.

[oscar canosa]

I'm afraid of mayonnaise.

[jeff]

Aloco--no, I was taught by Seminole Indians in a remote thatch hut in the Everglades. We learned to count by adding the number of teeth in an alligator's mouth.

Which institute taught you words like 'borned?' 'Skools 'R' Us?'

[ALoco]

JEFF,,,,'

THAT WAS GOOD,,,,,, DON'T TAKE IT SO HARD ............... YOU R NOT THE FIRST ONE TO MAKE A FEW WRITING MISTAKES ......

PEACE...............

It's all good, my man.

This site sure is odd, though. Mayonnaise worship? lol

[oscar canosa]

Mayonaisse is common at parties.

[SUPPORTER OF MAYONNAISE AND LESBIANS]

JEFF, YES YOU MUST ALSO HONOR MAYONNAISE. AND LESBIANS!

[Nj]

Wallace would be a great pickup

[Nj]

Oscar do you like man sauce ?

[oscar canosa]

Is Wallace a Football Player? If he is, he's welcomed here.

[Nj]

It's just like mayo

[Nj]

Mike Wallace isn't he the guy from 60 minutes

[Nj]

The dolphins are the only team from Florida

[oscar canosa]

We understand the need to strech the Field for RT.

[Nj]

Tannehill will light it up next year watch and believe

[Dolfan Rick]

Wallace can definately stretch the field. No one has ever questioned that.

[Another Longseason Ahead]

The biggest mistake the Dolphins will make is getting a FA wide receiver and then thinking the receiver problem is solved. This is what Bleacher Report is saying. Insane. The team needs at least TWO receivers who can jump up and get the ball, not one big receiver and a bunch of scatty possession guys.

[Dazdon]

I see another jack off fan thinks the wannabe media experts with no real experience, like the Bleacher Report, know any better.

[Richmond "Craig" Kinkaid]

People kept saying Henne was gonna light it up, and that the fans needed to show more patience.

A t u r d only smells worse as time passes.

[Crapon]

Hey t Kinkaid,

Thanks for the enlightening post. We all look to get more of your insight soon.

[Yesterday's Gones 4Ever!]

Richmond,

At Michigan Henne always played down to the competition. His firts 3 years here I tried to give him the beifit of the doubt because thats what I was giving Parcells for drafting him.

Ot was truly a headscratcher for me when it was announced:

"...And with the.... pick of the 2nd rd. The Miami Dolphins select....Chad Henne qb... University of Michigan."

Hene proved he was the same exact qb in the pros as he was at Michigan. Always, playing down to the competition, no matter their depth.

[Yesterday's Gones 4Ever!]

Richmond,

At somepoint, even a smelly turd, eventually dries up and blows away in the wind. So went Chad Henne. LOL...

[Yesterday's Gones 4Ever!]

What must happen for the Dolphins to be Super Bowl good?

I wonder if Hell freezing over qualifies?

[Richmond "Craig" Kinkaid]

YGE....\

what some folks on the blog don't get is that many of us wish it had not been so...........but it was.

I hope Tanny improves, but a great deal of improvement is needed. Here's hoping......................

[Zitface]

Yesterday, try to be more original,. You've been posting the same thing about Henne for 3 years now. It's old and boring.

[Yesterday's Gones 4Ever!]

Richmond,

I havent a clue how good Tanny will be. However, there a huge difference between he and Henne.

Tanny seems smarter, brighter, more athletic, and seems to have a greater will to win. What that eventually translates into, I cant predict the ceiling.

Still, I believe if surrounded with enough weapons, Tanny can at least become "Joe Flacco". Like Flacco, maybe not elite, but good enough to eventually get to or win a sb.

I believe Tannehill would have to suffer a HUGE loss of self confidence to go "Henne", and even a greater loss of self confidence to go bust.

I doubt Tannehill evr becomes a top 5 qb, but I do believe he can become no less than a bottom 10.

Hey idiot,

Just try and remember how old and boring the "TRUTH" is before looking both ways before crossing a busy intersection.

You just may be doing the rest of the world a favor. LOL...

[Senso]

Here is what I like about Tannehill....in a pressure situation, with the game on the line, a time out is called, and he always comes to the sideline with a smile...as if to say...isn't this fun??? That is a good trait.

[Zitface]

Yesterday, you are a belligerant, ignorant douche bag with no respect for anybody. Why anybody even talks to you is beyond me. Aloco and Craig M and Kris must have really really REALLY low self esteem. LOL

[Yesterday's Gones 4Ever!]

Im out, going to shoot some pool. GN guys! LOL...

[Earon Haavensk]

Please excuse of the English I use from the google translate but ask of this I have from one time in past with no answer. I am of Suuomi which call you in America FINLAND.

I and three are to come to Miami of November, 2013 and I require to know what are Metro subway option for to go Miami Dolphins stadium? We will have of travel from Fort laderdale airport and Miami Beach also Avventora and Boca Raton possible as well. Please you will advise on process.

[Billfish]

We need a new owner, GM, QB, Head Coach, and 30 - 40 new players before Miami will contend again for much of anything. Otherwise the past will be our future because nothing has changed and nothing will until everything changes. Get used to 7-9 seasons with this group in charge. They no nothing about winning. They just want to keep doing the same old thing, the same old way. You can always spot a winner or a loser right away. It doesn't take long to see how it's going to go. This owner, GM and coach are losers. Can't find talent to save this team. Not even close.

[Mandich]

Billfish, sadly you are 100% correct. These guys are clowns compared to other football executives...

[Mandich]

Its crystal clear Ross has no burning desire to win.

[Mandich]

And even if he did have a burning desire to win.....he doesnt have the ability.

[Zitface]

Earon

The best thing to do is take a cab to the beach. Enter the ocean and swim out as far as you can go until you fall asleep.

[Derek]

4 great WR's wont help a bit until we get an elite QB.

[Derdick]

5 great WR's wont help a bit until we get an elite QB.

[oscar canosa]

Elite QB don't grow on trees.

[Derdickdick]

oscar really?

[oscar canosa]

If they get a stretch the field WR/TE then Bess, Hartline, others, will always be open underneath.

[oscar canosa]

We can't forget that we need better protection for T-Hill. How he survived the Season, I'll never know.

[oscar canosa]

So you are forbidden to write long posts anymore, Yg? I know they pay you 10 cents/word so long posts are not good business for Armando. Besides, it's good to synhetize. Except for me. If I ever was to write a book, nobody would buy it as it would contain maximum 3 pages.

[Neegroid Jizzle Stain]

I would buy it if someone lent me the money for it.

[George Lincoln Rockwell]

Yahwohl, Mein Herren!

[oscar canosa]

I remember in Cuba they used to call "la Java" to some kind of brown pigmentation Negro People are supposed to have in their lower back. First thing most Cuban White parents did was to check for that thing in their newborns.jiji
