The Dolphin Paradox

Ok so what was supposed to be our strength and what was supposed to be our weakness coming into this season?

Last Year's Defense:

We were ranked 4th in pass defense, so we didn't change a thing. We basically have the exact same people as last year. Now we are ranked 30th?

We were ranked dead last against the run. So we got rid of our two best defensive players and only pro bowlers (on D) and brought in rookies. Now we rank 12th?

Last Years Offense:

We averaged 98 yd/game without Ricky and most of the year without Ronnie (who was leading the league in yds from scrimmage) with a poor offensive line. Now with both of them back and healthy with an "improved" offensive line we are ranked 29th averaging 50 yds/game combined?

We draft Derek Hagan and Ted Ginn to improve our reciever corpse. Ginn has 3 catches and Hagan 3.

Ginn was supposed to be the special teams ace. Now has 3 punt returns for 9 yds and no KO returns?

Losing is frustrating, but when each year moves are made to iprove our team but result in something enirely different, it makes it just that more difficult to envision forward progress, and that is even more frutrating than losing.
