Dan Marino’s coaches won multiple rings without him but they were the problem
Shula literally went undefeated
Joe Montana calls Marino the BOAT qb
- Thread starter NYC Rebel
- Start date
Shula literally went undefeated
He was part of the problem with his horrendous performances in big playoff games against great defenses
Those “skills” never translated when it mattered

The biggest problem was that they came into those games being a one dimensional team.
One dimensional teams lose in the playoffs in all sports.

Was Barry Switzer a proven winner in the NFL?
Shula was literally in the Super Bowl the year before Marino got drafted but they game passed him byThe game passed Shula by the mid 80s. Jimmy Johnson was not going to Herschel Walker trade replicate what he experienced in Dallas.
Anyone crucifying Dan Marino as if he held those two coaches back from winning it all would be stupid
Yeah he won a Super Bowl
I never seen one athlete tied to one season like this. He averaged 36 touchdowns his first 4 years then 21 the rest of his career. Did the league figure him out?

The league figured out the dolphins were a one dimensional team.
And you still see the 85 Bears talked about.
Speaking of Montana it’s funny cause the dolphins were a much better organization pre Marino then the 49ers were pre Joe. The dolphins were literally in the Super Bowl the year before Marino got drafted while the 49ers were a dumpster fire.
Other than Steve young who inherited a 14 win team or Rodgers who inherited a 13 win team the year before they became starters I’m trying to figure out which all time great starts on a better squad

That’s a lie. They won the Super Bowl in 1981 before Joe Montana was on the team.
Montana joined a great organization on the rise. What’s funny is that the team they played in the Super Bowl in 1981 was coached by Bill Walsh the years prior as their OC.
Ken Anderson is the first qb to benefit off the west coast offense
You are all parts of wrong
What are you talking about?
Joe Montana was drafted in 1979. They were ass in 1978. Facts
The dolphins wen to the fukkING SUPERBOWL the year before Marino got drafted
Real recognize real.
Most QBs and defenses in his era will tell you Marino is among the GOATs if not THE GOAT. He never won the SB and we know how that goes despite it being a team game but it is what it is.
Marino, Barry Sanders and Deion Sanders are the players that got me to start watching american football to be honest with you. Growing up in Haiti never understood the sport when i came here. Until i saw a few game when Marino lit up a few defenses and then a game when Barry Sanders made grown men look like the 3 stooges.
shyt had me like "them americans may be onto something with this weird ass sport of theirs"

And the 49ers won the Super Bowl in 1981 after they got Bill Walsh, who had success in Cincinnati
