Who have they signed?

I was speaking specifically about a. Building an offense around Brandon Marshall and Reggie Bush, b. trying to replace the head coach in January before finding out that no one wants your crappy job, and c. entertaining the thought of replacing your young quarterback with mediocre options with no upside.

The Dolphins clearly have a trifecta. Now they just need to hire Greg Blache to start bringing in veteran defensive linemen who once played in the SEC and can no longer rush the passer.

Well last year's defense was a 3-4 defense being run on 4-3 personnel. So it is somewhat understandable it was that terrible.

Six of one, half dozen of the other. Blache put up unimpressive numbers against crappy offenses and quarterbacks and got outcoached on weekly basis. Haslett's guys put up bad numbers against good offenses and quarterbacks.

I'll take Haslett because of his ability to make in-game adjustments, and because the game isn't moving too fast for him, but the defensive groups here have been disappointing for years, so it's personal preference.

LOL, funny... I'd take our $%*! pile from last year over blache's scheme any day. BECAUSE...... I can see how this 3/4 has room for improvement and when the right pieces get brought in this defense will be a monster. Blache's scheme was maxed out. There was no room for improvement on top of the fact he had to dummy down the GW scheme.

Plus and it's a biggie.... there were more turn overs last year vs. any in GW's or Blache's years here. It's the turn overs that will give more opportunities to the offense to score.

The defense near the end of the year was much improved though a little to conservative for my taste. I'm trying to put together videos for Orakpo in games near the end of the year and he's simply not doing anything but playing contain half the time. At least with Carriker I have plenty of plays where he tries to push the pocket.
