The Miami Dolphins are building their future. It’s hard to see because frankly, it’s been a long, long, very long time since they tried. The commitment that the management executives are making haven’t been seen in South Florida since the days of Don Shula and to a degree Dave Wannstedt. That’s something I thought I would never be saying.
Think about the history of this team after Shula’s departure. Jimmy Johnson tried to build a winner by standing on the shoulders of Dan Marino and whispering in his ear to change his game. While he found success on defense, Johnson never found a long term solution to the rest of the team.
