Mercury Morris' Yearly Message for Teams Seeking Perfection


Matthias

Recommended Posts

You just have to know that at some time, as difficult as it may be, there will be another team go undefeated.  It's happened once, it can happen again.  

I just hope there's at least one of the undefeated Dolphins left alive to see it when it does happen.

It's only been about 45 years since they did it.  I think it will be broken soon enough, but it's certainly harder to do it with 19 games vs the 17 the dolphins won.

Also, the league is designed to make everyone finish 8-8, so not only do you need a franchise so far ahead of the curve they can pull it off, you need enough ineptitude from the rest of the league to make things easier.

With the records through the first 7 weeks of this season, I'd say we're getting closer, and I'm not sure if that's a good thing.

    • Ultimately it's up to the other safety prospects to clearly outplay Scott. I think when that happens on tape against other teams it'll be addressed. I think none of them have done that definitively and consistently yet. 
    • Night and day difference in the front office investements.  Since Morgan has been in the FO (5 years)....4 out of 5 first round picks have been offensive players.  The one defensive pick was a corner. Expand it out to the first 2 rounds? 7 out of the 9 picks have been offensive.  That IMO is why our D sucks so bad.   You build defenses up front.   Carolina hasn't been investing there.  Ron's first 5 years? 3 of the 5 first round picks were defensive players.  Expand it all to include second rounders  7 of the 10 picks were defensive.  All front 7 players.     
    • I think he gets this year to show what he can do.  Last year, we had a lot of injuries. This year, we should have some players, even if we lose one or two.  It's the first preseason game.  Some of the starters weren't even in it.  There is no scheming or game planning.  Let's see how guys do when it counts. I think we have a GM that knows a thing or two about defense.  Let it play out.
