I think McNair would be an upgrade over headbutt and since he is CLEARLY not a long-term solution, there's no risk of getting "stuck" with him for many years.

On other words, just the kind of veteran we're looking for to start ahead of our rookie(s).

No way in hell do I want Injury prone McNair. I would rather stick with Headbutt than take McNair!!!! I have never liked him and the thought just makes my skin crawl. I am having Ray Lucas flashbacks again!!!!!

Ray Lucas wasn't injury prone and had a pretty good arm so I'm not seeing the comparison...

You're 100% correct......I was not trying to compare the two as player....more the situation. The thought of having Lucas here made my skin crawl when they first started talking about it. Then they signed him......I was having flashbacks to this exact scenario a few seasons back!!!!! Sorry for the confusion!  Wink

Actually, Ray Lucas did get banged up when he played for us.  Just look at the Ring of Dishonor to see how he totally fucked up our 2002 season.  I'm not gonna comment any further because I still tend to go nuclear about that one.

If Miami can get a good QB they will be a good team.

Good analogy Pats.  Bobflanders and I have been reiterating the same thing over and over.  With this year's team, if the Dolphins get good play from their QB position, they can beat anybody.

Thank God for Pats2006, Tommy, and dolphinblog!  I had no idea how much a real QB would help this team  Shocked.   What insight!

There were times last season when Gus or Sage looked like a real QB.  That's when we kicked ass.   I'll never forget Sage racking up 272 passing yards against Buffalo in the 4th quarter.

To be fair to our QBs, Gus showed real improvement and was playing at an acceptable level by the year's end.  We did win our last 6, after all.  Right now, we have a management style QB, and improvement will only come through a playmaker.

Some talent to help Hauck with the O-line wouldn't hurt either. It's amazing what he's accomplished with basically the same useless hacks as we had in 2004, but some real talent would help the O-line take (another) huge step forward, helping our running game and quarterback. This would be especially important if we actually draft a quarterback and expect him to start anytime soon. No easier way to destroy a promising young quarterback than to throw him behind a crappy line. Just ask the Texans.
