Into the Future

Well you can pretty much wrap up the Dolphins season. It's about as over as it can get, even if there are six games left.

The Miami Dolphins (5-5) were just embarrassed at home this past Thursday night. The visiting Chicago Bears (7-3) came into the Dolphins home field and shut out the anemic Phins offense. The final score was 16-0 and Miami barely even reached mid field. Miami's offense was nowhere to be found, and the Defense played well, but was playing for most of the game. Near the end of the game Chicago scored the only touchdown in the game and pretty much made the 16 points an insurmountable lead. Tyler Thigpen is not the answer to Miami's woes on offense and neither are the aging Ronnie Brown and Ricky Williams. The two running backs barely scrathed the stat lines and had poor showings at home once again.

The Dolphins are now 1-4 at home this season.

I feel it is time to start looking into the 2011 draft to see what Miami can grab out of this new class. First and foremost we need a new Quarterback. I don't beleieve that Chad Henne is our answer. Thigpen proved that he deserves to be in the deepest reserves possible. We need to draft a new QB. Someone who is GOOD! after that, draft a new running back please! Brown and Williams just aren't doing it this year. We need someone who can produce more then 20 yards in a game. Demarco Murray or the kid from South Carolina seem to fit that hole.

I don't care. This was supposed to be such a great season for Miami. who would have thought that Tampa would be having a better year. Who'da thunk it?
