      That's always been my house rule as well. You never know when you'll go. A lot of people young and old pass in their sleep. You don't want the last 3 words said with a loved one to be anything but "I LOVE YOU". Once my son punched me in the mouth drunk late at night and cracked my tooth. I said son tomorrow we'll discuss this but tonight just know "I love You" and he said I love you too Dad. Imagine if I woulda died in my sleep that night without making that clear. He would have felt guilty forever. A good parent bites the bullet for the sake of the kids. The next day we talked. He apologized. Never happened again and he's started his own family and is getting ready to make me a grandpa. My advice to him was never let your family go to bed without saying I love you. He smiled. So did I.

      He never won the big one because Marino was a selfish stat chaser. I have been a fan of Miami since the early 70s and loved Marino initially…until he showed what was important to him. Miami brought in Jimmy Johnson, who had just turned Dallas into a championship team. Getting Johnson was huge. He would have taken Miami to Super Bowls but Dan Marino wouldn’t change his game. Johnson asked Marino to change his game, Johnson has spoken about this many times. Marino told him no. Marino didn’t want his stats to suffer. Johnson finally gave up and quit. He has said he quit because of Marinos selfishness. Great QBs are team players and Marino wasn’t. Marino didn’t accomplish anything in Miami and as a Dolphin fan who cares about the team I wish they hadn’t drafted him.

    I started watching the Miami Dolphins in the 1994 season. The thing about Marino at QB was that every game felt winnable. That Marino Magic meant so much for a fan, especially a new fan - to feel that even if the game was going badly there was still a real chance.
    It got really hard to be a fan in some of the post-Marino years. It felt like the team had gone from always having a chance to never having a chance; that even when they were winning they were going to find some way to blow it.

    As much credit as people give 1984, he led the league in passing 3 of his first 4 years, 4 of his first 6, he threw 44 TD's in his 4th year. Sure he threw a lot of picks, but with the risks he was able to take cuz he was so good, you knew more often than not that he would beat you with his arm. In a stacked 1983 draft class for QB's, he just happened to be the best of them all.

      Marino was a Favre. Great QB...but he cost your team games and never really could take a team to the Promised Land by himself. QBs like Brady and Elway dragged their teams kicking and screaming to the Super Bowl. Sure, both lost a few Super Bowls, but Marino personally lost his team his only Super Bowl Appearance with two poorly timed INTs.

To think the NY Jets passed on Dan Marino in the 1983 NFL draft. Dan Marino with Wesley Walker, Al Toon, Mickey Shuler and Freeman McNeil would have better numbers than with the Mark Brothers. If he play today he would throw for 6000 yards and 60 TDS. Dan Marino put the fear of God in every NFL team.

    He is the only QB in history to throw 5000 yards and average 9.0 yards or more per attempt. It goes to show that scheme, Marino's talent and those receivers were able to maintain that average all season!

      ⁠@@JSalonskyokay, but he’s not even in the same stratosphere as Marino. This isn’t disrespectful to Flacco, it’s more a testament to Marino.

      @@jacksonbond5336 I actually think it’s more of a testament to Flacco. How you can be a winner in this league regardless of your stats. (#16 all time in wins behind Jim Kelly and Terry Bradshaw). Let’s also not forget Flacco was the highest paid player at one point too. He actually revolutionized the position in a way.. what Jalen hurts does now throwing the ball up for AJ Brown.. Flacco started that with Boldin.

    Watching tape of him at Pitt I literally cannot believe this guy fell to the 27th pick. Insane.

    Imagine he took a year off like manning did and rested up in 1991 or 1992 and played on even 80% healthy knees. He would’ve won a Super Bowl I think 100%

    Dan never won a SB, but he's had a blessed life and career and is super wealthy.
