I retract my offer...

Earlier this week I offered to trade Dan Henning for Schotty.

You guys may be cursed with a worse OC than we are, and that is saying
something.

I miss the old days when both offenses were exciting.

No my green friend. THAT was when Tom Olivadotti was our DC. ;-)

Thank you for the congrats, I appreciate your sportsmanship. Other
than the fact that any victory against the Jets is a great thing for
us, there is very little to be happy about after that atrocious
game... Oh wait- our punter kicks ass. There you go. A silver
lining...

Why the hell was Schott sending LT between the tackles against our D
which was obviously selling out against the run? Isn't that Shonn's
job? LT has(or perhaps had) many skills, but being a "load" isn't a
quality I remember. And the Dolphins have precisely one "above
average" DE, yet there were plenty of snaps where Keller was charged
with stopping Wake. How is that ever going to work?

We've both got teams with some serious issues. How these issues will
be addressed in 2011 should be very interesting.

actually.... those were shula vs. walton teams... walton as OC under
michaels and walton as HC.... todd and o'brien at QB and marino as
fish qb. Those were the real fun games

Hell yes they were. Wesley Walker, Freeman McNeal, The Mark brothers,
Dan, etc.

Win or lose you generally didn't feel embarrassed by your team's
offensive performance.

Yesterday, however, was beyond awful. I can't get my head around
Miami punting for 564 yards. I thought that may be a record but was
wrong. You seem to have a pretty deep understanding of the game,
maybe you knew this, I sure didn't (3 more punts and Fields may have
had it):
