Jumping On/Off the Bandwagon

I don’t consider myself to be on the “Suck for Luck” bandwagon. I can’t actively root for this team to lose. I can, however, acknowledge that losing as often as possible this season will probably make for a brighter future. So while I am always wanting this team to win, I at least can see the silver lining if they keep losing. Having said that, it would really take a miracle to get me to want them to do anything else in the draft next year than get a first round QB. It’s nothing against Moore, but I just feel that this team needs a fresh start in multiple places, the most obvious being HC, GM and QB. So one great game from Moore won’t change my position on that. If Moore can get this team back to a record of 6-6 with four to play, then I might be able to be convinced that he can be the guy we need. But other than that, I think I will still look for this team to get a big name in April. If for no other reason than it would finally signify that the organization realizes that its way of doing things for the last fifteen years hasnt worked at all.

I actually voted for nothing because I do not believe Moore can post the numbers you mentioned with this team (barring a serious upgrade in the coaching and O-Line play).
Even if he did we should still draft a future QB in round 1 if certain guys are still there (such as Jones though he is doubtful to escape the top 10) because Moore will be on year 2 of his 2 year deal and he would still have had only the one good year. I would draft Jones if possible and let him compete with Moore for the starting job and may the best man win. If Moore wins and has a second stellar season then I try to re-sign him to be my starter but he would command big $$ and lots of attention from other teams.
Still if he signs elsewhere we would still have a QB to turn to and if he re-signs here then I would at least have a potential franchise QB as a backup in case we have a game in San Diego.

I think most of the “suck4Luck” fans STILL want miami to win….but have just realized that’s its almost impossible to turn 0-4 into a playoff berth. For me that’s what it takes this year – playoffs – to stay with Henne and Tony S. for another year… nothing less. At this point – we have almost no chance of winning enough games to be in the playoffs.
We already have 3 AFC conf. losses… so that hurts the WC chase a lot – even if we can rip off a few wins back to back….
BUT – I think Moore is going to be a good QB the rest of the way – BETTER THAN HENNE. I watched how quickly moore got the ball out last week, he made quick decisions and threw it well. also, he will throw it up for Marshall and LET HIM make a play. I PREDICT A BIG GAME FOR MARSHALL AND MOORE vs Jets.
but I really feel like our DEF has already quit on this team….they have more talent than the offense – and yet play like sh*t…..so yea I will scream my head off for this team EVERY game – but at the end if we lose – I just remember that its for the best…getting rid of tony s. , Jeff the douche, and Henne (who just insnt a franchise QB) even though he has really tried….. I would even resign him as a backup for next year….
But i’m drafting LUCK – or Landry Jones for man sure……..
no matter what I have to trade – picks or players (including Wake, Long, Marshall, vontae, Starks, Dansby…no one on this horrible team is worth more than Luck or Jones….
We draft one and rebuild the team from scratch if need be…..

If he play pretty decently, I would not mind him starting next year as a stop gap or caretaker so our drafted QB can developed.

But lets say he goes on a 12 game winning streak (which is highly unlikely) and makes a decent run deep into playoffs. I would not mind at all give him the keys to the franchise, never know we can have a Drew Brees like QB…

Don’t forget Moore never been on a team with as much talent we have, he can be good with a legitimate shot….

Very Optimistic

Of how Moore plays … I want a first round QB in next years draft. Before Henne got hurt … I said the same thing. It’s the only thing we haven’t tried since Marino. Why not just try the one thing we haven’t tried … and see if it makes a difference. :: insert definition of insanity here :: …

I would have to say that i will back Moore, Devlin, or who ever stands behind Pouncey. I do like the slogan Schmucks for Luck though..it is clever… I have slowed down my posting and visiting to the sight since the overwhelming attitude shifted to losing for Luck.

It is hard to be around fans who want there team to lose.

& while Moore made a couple of mistakes, he also threw some hella passes! Plenty were dropped, but they were in the right place for the recievers to grab & keep running. I am just scared the OL will just let him get killed, even Big Jake has been sucking this year! I also wonder why Henne didnt want to try & come back this season? I see many people playing hurt & that was his non-throwing shoulder, whats up with that? A dislocated non-throwing shoulder and he doesnt want to play? I think somewhere internally, Henne just didnt have any respect from the team. Henne will be a back-up somewhere next year but I dont see him having a stellar NFL career, this was his 4’th season, and I dont even see him making it as long as Sage has. You cant teach “touch passes” or the fact that he had a “cannon arm” but threw many balls way to short that would have went for 6 alot. I also know that we lead the NFL in dropped passes, so maybe the players just didnt like Henne?? We wont ever truly know, but we do know his team-mates have blasted him before & even Crowder. Plus, we gave to much money to Burnett who had 1 good season in 6 years. A contract year, he made some plays, got paid, and whats he doing now? A career bench-ST player,everyone seemed to love this signing, I didnt. He was pretty much a bum untill last year and I know Crowder wasnt great, but his presence is missed and he wouldnt have been worse than Burnett!

I just hope we dont have a repeat of the Bears game from last season where this time Moore will be running for his life like Thigpen did.

Even if Moore wins us a Super Bowl, I still would like a 1’st rd QB, we havent tried since 1983, time to try! We spent a pick on Odrick when we already had a good d-line, if you really think about it, Merling was a 1’st (Pats lost their pick because of spygate) & he was pick #32. Langford was a 3rd, we have Starks.

We are many, many pieces away from being elite! Either way I want a 1’st rd QB though

Always.

But I am a benevolent god and will allow anyone back on.

As long as you bring beer.

Great, if he plays solid then we can be Mediocre of another decade and a half. Yippy!

Nobody is saying " man, I hope they get their ass kicked by the jets on Monday", I’ll take the number one pick and everyone laughing at how bad my team is rather than going 7-9 or 6-10 and nobody talking about my team period.

The team is sucking for luck, not the fans, their missing tackles, blowing assignments, dropping balls…. They’re a quarter of the way in on delivering luck gift wrapped for us themselves, yet we are the problem?! U know what’s “corny as f*ck” will Allen, the lack of a defense here that can stop somebody when it matters. Watching the dolphins play is as enjoyable as a Root canal, yet as miserable as we are were still here posting and giving a damn, I don’t know if the same can be said about these coaches or players on this team.

Us suck for Luck fans are just looking on the bright side. What we say on this site has nothing to do with us losing games

I feel sorry for him. He can absolutely tear it up and the fan base still won’t pull for him. A lame duck coach and a lame duck QB…

That’s what it took for me to give up on the season, that’s what it would take to get me back in it. And I don’t want Chad-Henne-Acceptable level of QB play. Matt Moore will have to go absolutely crazy to raise my excitement level above bemused indifference. Moore can’t do it on his own, either. Even with stellar QB play, if our defense keeps playing like a sinking ship, I’ll still be hoping for better in April.

My interpretation of Suck for Luck, a camp I am deeply embedded in, doesn’t necessarily preclude rooting for the Dolphins. In my case, and I’m sure others feel the same, I simply can’t bring myself to care about this season. I want them to win every game—but the cycle of ineptitude has completely broken any expectation of winning I had coming into the season. The slapstick level of play has left me feeling that, despite our best efforts, we can’t win. Rooting for or against the team likely won’t upset an imagined karmic balance. It will not anger the Sports Gods. Ride the Suck for Luck train and cheer your heart out; our collected positive energy has netted us seven straight losses.

Everyone else has already summed it up. We want a fresh start. Mediocrity shouldn’t be acceptable.

but I have no confidence in Moore.

…and the way they’re currently playing, Nobody has to sandbag to lose games. We may have individual talent but we are simply a bad team led by incompetent coaches playing as hard as we can to win.

I wanna c a new qb

I’d still want a new coach though

like Rodgers, Manning, Brady or Brees even just a enough to believe that’s where he’s headed then I MIGHT back off the idea of picking a QB in the first round of next years draft.

Bottom line-Unless we win around 10 games you can not say this team has improved over last year. This would of course require going 10 and 2 or maybe 9 and 3 over the next 12 games which is so much more than unlikely. With that lack of improvement I can not see the owner sticking with this coaching staff past this year given that he was ready to make the change last off season. So now we are all but assured of seeing Ross go after some big name like a Cowher or Fisher to come in here and right this ship. I can not imagine that either of these guys will not want their own guy at QB especially given the amazing depth at that position in this upcoming draft (assuming everyone we think will come out comes out).

I am still for getting a franchise QB by way of the draft whoever he is named luck, jones.

lol, i know , he’s probably not coach material, but in an interview on" finsiders" he called every thing thats wrong with this team, on offense and defense. The guy knows football, and at least ross could use him as a consultant to pick a good coach , or coaches to help “right the ship”. If “jaws” can see it so clearly, why can’t our coaching staff see it? It’s a mystery to me why tony or his staff can’t seem to realize that bush is not a between the tackles back, or why the right side of our O line is so weak, or even the fact that we need a TE out to catch balls , rather than being an extra blocker all the time. I’m just drawing at straws now , but maybe ross needs to bring some football minds in to camp in the offseason, and rebuild this team from the ground up. I’m still hoping we start winning games( monday’s to start with !) and turn our season around , but we still need huge change next year and early planning can’t hurt ! Go Phins… Beat the jests !
