It’s difficult to know what 15 players are going to get picked before we pick. This is a time when nobody really ever really tells the truth about what they plan to do. We have...

Thinking about anything other than what we have to do to prepare to play the next game, to minimize our errors and maximize our performance is out of the question.

He’s played a great role for this team all year. He’s been unselfish, he’s been a really good team guy and he’s been very helpful with a lot of other players in terms of what...

We’re not allowed to be frustrated around here. But we’re very frustrated.

John St. Clair will probably get an opportunity to play someplace else. We certainly wish him the best and in a lot of ways we would like to have him on our team again, but...

This is something we want to build on,

I really don’t have any idea or comment on what would happen if it got delayed.

I know I speak for all of his teammates and the entire Dolphin organization in supporting him in any way we can in his future endeavors.

I wouldn’t say that he has been demoted. The way I’d rather say it is that Sage Rosenfels has earned, through his efforts and consistency and performance through this preseason, the opportunity to compete for...

(Ronnie) wants to do well and he is working hard to do well and you can’t always evaluate every situation based on results, in terms of how many yards he is getting a carry and...

Guys, let’s get off this starting quarterback thing.

If Sam can’t play, it may make us make some other changes,

I don’t know, you should ask Sam that. I can’t answer that. I don’t think that we are doing anything differently than anybody else does, though.

So that was basically the end of that.

It looked like we were playing on the beach, … Maybe Gus didn’t have a lot of opportunities to do much.

It’s something we need to continue to evaluate. It seemed the entire pre-season whichever quarterback has played second has played best. It’s the second week in a row we gave Gus the opportunity to start,...

I haven’t been pleased with the tackling on the perimeter of our defense for several weeks now. We are either going to get it out of the guys we have or we are going to...

Would it be better long-term for him so that he can get better and just not be an every week thing for the next however many more weeks if he doesn’t have an opportunity to...

It doesn’t mean that just because we work somebody out that we have an issue. That is not something that anybody should assume. There are things called information gathering and we are allowed to use...

against things we haven’t seen and that we will see in the near future.

He is one of the best quarterbacks in the country, and probably the best quarterback in the SEC. He makes good choices and decisions; they only have one turnover all year. … He doesn’t make...

I am assuming that every game that we play in our division is pretty significant in terms of the kind of rivalry it represents, … All of the lectures that I give are about thinking...

I think that he needs to play some, I really do. With only one exhibition game under his belt, he probably needs to play a little bit more in this game.

Would we rather have been in a situation where we didn’t have to call timeout by having the best block team that we could on the field? Absolutely, but that wasn’t the case, … I...

It sort of screwed me up. I couldn’t figure out what was going on. They had a quarterback in, four tight ends and a receiver and there was no kicker.

I think that’s a great example — and those players know it who were involved — that to play a game for 60 minutes, you’ve got to be disciplined and you never want to have...

Richard is an outstanding coach who has been in the NFL for 17 years. I coached with him in Houston and have always thought he was one of the best coaches I’ve had the chance...

My biggest concern is how many players do we have that can go in and play (winning) football,

I think every guy’s different when it comes to that. Some guys are very instinctive and very understanding and therefore don’t need to see it on the field as much.

I don’t like to lose. I don’t expect to lose.

So every guy that we got rid of all of a sudden is the best player that there ever was and never ever made a mistake or had a problem? … Who is to say...

[Capers] brings a wealth of knowledge and will be a valuable addition to our staff. I’m sure his contributions will help us continue to improve as a team.

I’m very confident in him, … Him being able to manage this situation with the first team out there is going to be a good experience for him. If this circumstance ever pops up in...

We understand the serious nature of the charges and certainly don’t condone in any way the type of conduct which has been alleged. However, we will not make a comment about this specific matter until...

That’s a part of the business. Now he is going to have to overcome it and we are going to have to help him overcome it.

This is a league decision, and we are disappointed in what it means for Ricky and the team. Ricky did an outstanding job for the Dolphins, not only as a player but also what he...

He was the number one guy last year and I think he did pretty well. He didn’t do anything to make us think that he couldn’t do it.

It doesn’t get any bigger than that. It was a big play in the game.

We’ve tried to make a plan on how we would operate if we do have an agreement, how it would that impact our ability to make improvements to the team. All we can do is...

What we’re trying to do is to develop a strategy to where [Mare] could be the kicker here … because sometimes guys’ contracts could make them targets as to what you have to do because...

We looked at him last year, quite a bit. Kelly’s a smart, experienced quarterback. He’s very capable of managing a game and doing what they need him to do to have success and it will...

We need to improve our ability to play with discipline, especially on the road, especially in the beginning of games, … That put us behind the 8-ball.

[The Dolphins were uninspired. The thought of possibly being blown away in the next day or two does not encourage intensity on a football field.] I’m not blaming anybody, because that’s not my nature, but...

Playing physical and having the number of guys they have that are difficult to block, these guys are as good as anyone we have played.

I felt very much appreciated on the field today,

It wasn’t very effective when the guy fell down and they ran 50 yards for whatever, which to me was the biggest play in the first half.

It was a good opportunity for us to go out and practice in not so favorable conditions, and that may benefit us someday down the road.

He put half of our defensive team in the training room for a week every time we played him. The thing that separates (Brown) from the other running backs available in this draft was his...

the die was pretty much cast.

It’s certainly an area that, if the opportunity presents itself, we will try to make some improvements in.
