Staff may just go all in with Emory now…

Do we fans never learn? Marino brought us Dan Marino passing records. Never a Championship. Every year he played for the Dolphins the defense sucked worse and worse. Cam brought us Cam Ward records and each game our defense was worse and worse until the end. No Natty. I guess I just think that balance on a team matters. The 1972 Dolphins were the perfect team right? They didn't have the stud QB, but they had three stud RBs in Morris, Czonka and Kiick. They had superior guys on the O line like we have now. They had a stud defense who could stop the run. They had Warfield to stretch the defense. They had Mandich and I think Briscoe to be possession guys. Michigan won a Natty using this formula. Just opening this for debate but exactly how from that are we given the current roster of the team? We need the run stoppers but I think this roster could be better if we added the talent on key defensive positions and didn't try to be an offense that killed the defense on time of possessions. As usual I will wait for all the normal face palms I get from the posts.

You're wrong Bob Griese was a stud QB. He was a College All-American, 2x first team NFL All Pro, 6x Pro Bowler, 1977 NFL TD passing leader, 1978 NFL Completion leader and early in his career the preeminent scrambler in the NFL.

We might be trying to win games like Georgia Tech did this year. We’re strong on oline and RB. Pound teams into oblivion, shorten the game, and try to do enough in the passing game to keep defenses honest. Not flashy, but at this point it’s looking like our passing game is gonna take a major step back next year.

If we’re rolling with Emory we need to find a way to bring Horton and Martinez back.

Why pay a singleton or conception, just use that money for Horton. He’s WR1..

I’d be good with the 3 headed monster at RB running it back next year with Emory..different offense for sure

Because Horton not worth that money

I was around as a young kid for those days. Griese was such a smart qb. Like off the charts QB football IQ.

My concern with Emory is he looked like he had cinder block shows last year. Slow as can be.

Horton im over. Kid didn’t even know how to catch the ball without bobbling or run a route until this year. He worked hard and staff developed him and he pulled his little extortion attempt. Good bye.
