I posted this on NOLA, but most of those guys are allergic to insight and optimism... So I thought I'd get you guys thoughts...

Why the dolphins traded Rodgers...
It had nothing to do with him declining or regressing.

He doesn't fit their scheme as well as Seau, and his salary was escalating. The Fins don't ask their LB's to rush the passer that much because of their DE's (Jason Taylor).

Rodgers forte was pass rushing. If Miami used their LB's more to rush the passer, they never would have let this guy go.

The Miami press has referred to the guy as a QB seeking missle. Miami needs a run-support/read-react type. Seau is a perfect fit for them. Rodgers is a better fit for us, especially on passing downs. Zack Thomas even pointed out he was in the wrong system for his style. He said he needed to be in a Lavar Arrington type roll. I don't know if thats our exact style, but Venturi has stated many times he wants to rush the LB's more.

This guy will start the 1st game (actually week 2 due to his suspension). If not, James Allen has officially arrived!
