Pennington a top 5/10 All Time Favorite Dolphin? Poll


Just reading the comments under one of Matty's latest articles. Fine work Matty, fine work . While reading I saw a post that Pennington, after 1 season, was a top 5 or top 10  favorite Dolphin. I have listed 15 others that I would put ahead of Pennington. Yes, he doesn't even make my top 15, maybe not top 20 for these came off just the top of my head. They are as follows:


1) Dan Marino
2) Ronnie Brown
3) Jason Taylor
4) Zach Thomas
5) Larry Csonka
6) Mark Duper
7) Bob Griese
8) Ricky Williams
9) Larry Little
10) OJ McDuffie
11) Mercury Morris
12) Sam Madison
13) Patrick Sutain
14) Richmond Webb
15) Reggie Roby

 These are random order (except Marino). No disrespect to any other Dolphins greats. Upon request, I'd like to thank joel311 and Matty I for the inspiration for this post.-)

Where does he rank with you? Who ya dropping? Why? Gotta poll to engaged opinon.

The person that made that comment stated it was becasue he was still young

and hadn’t seen all the other greats play. But still a good post and question.

hmmm....

I think for more younger Dolphin fans (aka those who became fans during the Marino era) – we probably don’t have Griese, Csonka, etc… ranked as high as we should.

For me, it would go:

Marino is #1.

Then #s 2 through 5 in no particular order: Zach Thomas, Jason Taylor, Ronnie Brown, and then _________________

And in that blank, I would consider guys like Mark Duper, Ricky Williams, OJ McDuffie, Sam Madison, Patrick Surtain, and Chad Pennington.

So CP is in my top 10 somewhere – not sure if he cracks top 5.

by Matty I on Oct 15, 2009 3:14 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

but keep in mind i'm only in my mid 20s

so I think age has a lot to do with it.

But CP also help engineer the single most enjoyable season of my lifetime – so that helps boost him, too.

Bu “single most enjoyable” – I mean I had no expectations after a 1 win season and then we won the division – by having CP beat the Jets in NY, no less.

I'm too damn young

he’s in my top 10. One of my regrets is not being an 80’s baby being able to watch Marino in his prime

I was in Denver a few weeks ago

and we were in a bar one night and there was a Dolphins/Chargers game from about the late 80s/early 90s. It was on a huge screen and was digitally restored and was in damn near HD. Marino was amazing. I’m only 25, so I vaguely remember him playing and even then it was the mid to late 90s. I’m jealous of all you 35+ people.

Clayton was the possession receiver and Duper was the deep threat.

Probably not. My dad didn't win too many medals in Taekwondo, cause it rewards small people but

He’s 6’3, 240 (all muscle back in the day) and was not a fun person to get in a fight with. He hits harder than anything I’ve ever seen.

Even over Zach Thomas?

I give Johnny O and Brian Cox a tie for number 2.

by luvs2drnk on Oct 15, 2009 4:44 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Yes,,,

Watch some film. Cox was not as strong as Offerdahl at point of contact…Cox was more elusive and a better blitzer but not on the inside. Zach could do everything well but not great. He was a great tackler and underrated as a pass defender. Zach’s responsibilities were a little different in the middle because the two 2-gap DTs primary job was to keep people off of the undersized Thomas…

Johnny O was a beast against any fullback and any lineman, which he frequently manned up against guards. So on the inside Offerdahl was a rock and as good a tackler as Zach… Cox was a fair tackler…it was either big hit or big wiff..

Offerdahl is highly underated and was overshadowed by the more popular: Speilman, Conlan, Mechlenberg, Singletary, Pepper J, Seau, Wilbur Marshall, Sam Mills.. and yet managed to get Probowl nods with them, even with some average Miami teams.

I guess it comes down to this.

Offerdahl was the most physically gifted.
Thomas was the playmaker.
Cox was the motivator.

Thank you for including Dwight Stephenson. I will never ever understand why he gets left

off of nearly ever fans list. Hey guys hes only the BEST center to EVER play the game. EVER! He was responsible for helping keep Marino clean and upright for a long time. Somewhere theres a clip where he has one guy by the jersey with one hand and another guy with the other hand and a guy sandwiched inbetween the two. Its one of those things you have to see for yourself to belive that its real.

I disagree that CP10 will be forgotten. 1-15 to 11-5 will not be forgotten, neither will the QB that got us there.

IF, and yes it is still a big if, Henne turns out to be The Man, CP10 will also be remembered as the player/coach that taught Henne those things he needed to learn, rather than getting thrown into it last year. Just think, Henne could be 13-0 in his first 13 NFL starts! Has anyone done that?

I think your top five is accurate

I don’t see any reason to change the top 5, but Mercury should be at number six, followed by Griese. Then pennington at 9 after Ricky at 8.

I think Pennington is an all-time great Dolphin, not because he was a career Dolphin or even spent a lot of time here, but because he brought us HOPE after a decade of nope, dope, choke, and broke. I think Pennington has ushered in a decade or more of dominance, like we’ve always had before this lame ass past ten years.

about the Paige button hook is that it’s a jumping catch each and every time. Regardless of whether the play was picked or not.

When people would claim that I was “cheaping” them I would simply reply that it was just an accurate representation of what happens when you blitz Dan Marino.

I concur

The single season turnaround has to go down as one of the greatest events in Dolphin history, not too far behind the legend of ’72. CP10 was clearly the leader and for this reason he must at least go in the top 20 list.

Hmmmm...

Top 10 All Time Dolphins and Top 10 All Time FAVORITE Dolphins are two different things. When I first read this post, I read it as All Time Dolphins. The second time, I realized it was All-Time FAVORITE. I can see how poeple would want CP10 in their Top 10 Favorites. Especially if they are young’ens.

My Top 10 Favorites:

1 – Dan Marino
1a – Ricky Williams
3 – Thomas
4 – Wes Welker
5 – Duper/Clayton
6 – JT
7 – Reggie Roby
8 – Orande Gasden
9 – Patrick Surtain
10 – Trace Armstrong

I guess CP10 doesn’t make it into my Top 10. Somewhere in the next 10 for sure, though.

Seau is a bit different.

The guy was total greatness in his day and he just cant give up the game. Hes at a point where no one else will have him when he cant let go. Welker is quite different. If he were a FA there would be at least 20 teams lining up to see what it was going to take to sign the guy.

And Welker went to the Pats because they made him an offer that we couldn't match.

He was a RFA, and the Pats made an offer we couldn’t match. I can’t blame the guy for so, instead of losing him for (relatively) nothing, the DOlphins and Pats agreed to a trade where we got two draft picks.

And, technically, I don’t think the Pats ever signed Welker to a offer sheet. I think they just threatened to do it. So Welker literally did nothing but get traded from us to them.

How can you hate a guy for getting traded?

X - remember CP10 was picked up to do exactly what he did. Change the team mentality from losing to winning.

He was to mentor CH while playing well week in and week out.

You can hate on the system that thought he was necessary last year, but don’t hate the man who simply did what was asked of him.

Did you really expect CP10 to tell BP – “No, I don’t want to play for the Phins cause I cannot throw 60 yds downfield and besides you have Henne and Beck, you don’t need me.”

CP10 makes my top 10

not from a pure talent perspective, or a longevity perspective, but for the complete change in mental outlook he instilled in Dolphin fans everywhere. There have been many others who have had much more talent and played longer, but few who can be given so much credit for changing fans’ expectations so drastically within such a short time. Add to the fact he KNEW he was destined to be replaced next year (which injury turned into THIS year)- he gave everything he had to the cause of winning football, and exuded nothing but the utmost of class in doing so, without appearing to be full of himself. The way he carries himself is the way I would hope my children carry themselves as they grow up into whatever endeavor they choose. Therefore, his one year+ of service weigh more heavily than others who contributed for much longer periods of time. Definitely top 10 for me.

Let me ask you this....

What progress did CP10 stop?

The progress back from 1&15?
The progress of developing a rookie QB rather than throwing him to start immediately, watching him lose, hiw confidence erode, he becomes unsalvagable, releaseable, and he signs with Baltimore?
The progress of turning a losing team into a team that believes it can win?

Damn, I hate when we dont make any progress!

C'mon lefty

Thats not a list of my top 15 Fins, just some that came to mind, because the 2 mentioned in the post said Pennington would be in their top 10. I quickly thought of 15 I would put ahead of Penny.

PS. You gotta love Roby. Don’t be hating the punters.

Why is everyone so quick to point to CP10 for our 1-15 to 11-5 turnaround?

Has everyone forgotten the guy who brought CP10 to Miami, a guy by the name of Bill Parcells? Don’t get me wrong, I’’m not saying CP10 had nothing to do with it, but I think he gets too much of the credit.

simple.

lot of things contributed… R&R, Coaching, team effort. Thx Mr. Parcells for bringing all these guys together.

BUT, bottom line, if we had been stuck with McClown or the Duck, this turnaround never happens.

You also said but,

Don’t try and sweet talk me. There is no bottom line, because Parcells never would have went into that season with either of those two as the starter. If it wasn’t CP10, it would have been some other wiley veteran (personally, I think he would have brought in Bledsoe).

Can you imagine if McCown had started for us?!

Sweet lord, I was dreading the season because I looked at our QB roster and wanted to cry.
