The Time for Ross to make Tough Decisions is Now!

It's a sad state of affairs when as a Dolphins fan you are banking on Carl Peterson to be the "voice of reason" in the ear of Stephen Ross. That is the situation we are in though as Fin Fans on October 2nd, 2011. Ross has no clue what it takes to be an NFL owner and he proved that in January with the Harbaugh debacle. And the people he has put in power are fools.

Mike Dee and Jorge Perez had their shots. Ireland had his shot with the talent. Dawn Aponte can sit at her desk all day and sharpen pencils and Brian Gaine can fill up the copy machine with paper every hour. These people have all failed and none should continue to make any decisions. As Dolphins fans we need Carl Peterson to be running the show behind the scenes right now and calling all the shots.

Carl Peterson is a lifelong friend of Ross and in the owners box for every Dolphins game now. Also he is someone at his age in life doesn't want a big hands on job. So, he can shoot straight from the hip with nothing to fear with his buddy Ross. Don't be mistaken, Peterson would love a role like Bill Parcells had, absolutely! And in that role I have no problem with Peterson. But fact is as Dolphins fans right now we need Carl Peterson to grab the wheel of this ship and tell Ross what to do.

For all of the negatives Peterson brings to the table, and there are many of them, he is the one guy who can tell Ross honestly when is the best time to Fire Sparano. Whether it be tonight, in the morning, after Thanksgiving, or after the season. He can tell Ross honestly if Ireland is worth holding onto. And he can tell Ross what candidates are worth chasing when it comes to our next head coach. Peterson can also tell Ross the painful truth, that take the short-term pain of half empty stadium this year and losing can be a good thing if it brings you the next superstar in this league named ANDREW LUCK!

The only thing preventing Andrew Luck to be house shopping in Miami right now is Peyton Manning's neck. The Dolphins are by far the worst team in the NFL after 4 games with only Indy by their side. After the 1-15 disaster a few years back I didn't think we would be right back in this same situation so soon. But here we are. And we as fans are begging and hoping for Carl Peterson to save us. I don't know what Rock Bottom is. But at 0-4 and hoping for Carl Peterson I am guessing this is it!

Go Stanford!
