Dolphins Stuff

How bad was their 1st round decision-making process last year?
“‘He’s going to be a good receiver. But is Teddy Ginn going to be a No. 1 receiver?” Dolphins receivers coach Terry Robiskie asked, repeating the question. “That’s hard to say.”
Um, you picked him 9th overall. You better be able to say he’ll be a #1 receiver. Good lord. What a fuckawful pick.
Speaking of fuckawful, Cam Cameron, you’re next. It looks like you won’t be retained by Parcells, and your staff seems fine with that.
“Cam Cameron, who reportedly could be let go this week, even has lost some support from his staff. ”Some coaches aren’t fans of Cameron — the religious stuff wears on them,” one close associate of the staff said. (Cameron is religious and perceived by some as judgmental.) One player said he appears to second-guess defensive coordinator Dom Capers at times.”
I will say this, the “religious stuff” is probably a shitload harder to take when you are 1-14, that’s for sure.
As for Parcells’ alleged genius, well, Dolphins fans better hope he is, because he apparently had not spent a whole lot of time noticing how bad they were, even thought that was sorta his job at ESPN.
“Parcells has been telling his media confidants, of which he has quite a few, that he really didn’t know a lot about the Dolphins and their problems before he accepted the job as Miami’s executive vice president of football operations.”
Wow. Good luck with all that to Parcells. And to Dolphins fans. Hope he gets up to speed soon.
Although a try-hard-to-impress-the-new-boss win over Cincy today would be unsurprising. I am guessing even if the Dolphins manage that kind of effort, Parcells will eventually find himself to some tape, and the tape will not lie…
