How many times have the Arizona Cardinals made the playoffs?
So do you guys know how many times the Arizona Cardinals have made the playoffs in their 106 seasons as a franchise? Because I don't expect any of you to know that answer. It is 11 playoff appearances in 106 years. Harbaugh had 12 in 18 seasons with the So it's a little harder to do than people think. I'm stunned that the guest bookers have indeed, I just thought Archuleta's a great name to say. It's a fun name to say. And I didn't think that they'd produce him quite this quickly, but Adam Archuleta is indeed there ready to give us all the advice we need on how it is to fix the dolphins. Can you just throw together some cruddy imaging as fast as you can that introduces this new segment, How to Fix the Dolphins.
Let's fix the dolphins. Fix the dolphins. Fix the dolphins. Fix the dolphins. Fix the dolphins. Fix the dolphins. Let's fix the dolphins.
Fix the dolphins. Fix the dolphins.
Do it like Eggman. Aikman alphabetically is before Archuleta, but Archuleta is a broadcaster whose help we need to fix the Dolphins, former first-round pick, obviously a safety in the league for many years. And he's one of the voices in the AFC South, a member of the famous AFC South group chat that Mike Ryan has not been included in. So we are pleased to have him here. How would you, sir, thank you for being with us, how would you fix the Dolphins? Well, first, you forgot to throw in their connoisseur of really awful backup quarterback play. And I think we're now we've graduated from the AFC South now that Jacksonville is so good. We're now part of the quasi AFC North, AFC East crew. So you got to add that into my introduction.
OK, I'm sorry I introduced you poorly. You didn't answer my question at all. Listen, I mean, the Dolphins, Where do you start? I mean, you're in contract hell. You got to figure out your quarterback situation. Did I mention you were in contract hell? You got to get the GM and the head coach on the same page. There's a lot of fun stuff that you got to do down in South Florida.
What strategies does Adam Archuleta suggest for fixing the Dolphins?
I feel like that's exactly what Aikman is being paid to tell Steven Ross. 100%. It may sound ridiculous to you, but this is what Troy Aikman probably said. Man, where do you start? You know, it is. And look, there's a lot of haves and there's a lot of have-nots in the NFL. And if you are saddled with a quarterback, a hole at quarterback, and you're saddled with salary cap quarterback hell, then that is a really, really tough place to start. Until you figure that out, then it's going to be an uphill battle for sure. Adam, does it bother you that we want you to do for free what Troy Aikman's getting paid a lot of money likely for? You know what? In a way, it does a little bit, but, you know, I've got to understand.
You've got to understand where I'm at in life. I have a great gig. I've done well in life. But as far as analysts go, I'm not a quarterback. I'm not a Hall of Famer. So I'm kind of like the redheaded stepchild of analysts. You look great. I do a lot of things. for a lot less money than the quarterbacks do. So I'm kind of used to it. That's kind of part of my deal. And doing stuff for free, I guess, is kind of my wheelhouse.
So, Adam, if you were being paid to advise Steven Ross, are you telling him today, nah, stick with Mike McDaniel, or are you telling him, Go after John Harbaugh.
But you're doing it very poorly, I should say, as an advice giver. When you come in, instead of forcefully telling us what it is he should do, you're saying, well, where do you start? It's a hell of an uphill battle. We need confidence. Conviction. Yeah, we need you to tell us what to do. Shoot the gap. Yeah, you go after guys that have done it, and you go after program builders. And listen, on one hand, I do like getting some new blood in the building, guys that are young, that guys have a different creative mind. And you tried that with McDaniel. Look, I like what Liam Cohen has done in Jacksonville, and I like what some of these young guys have to offer. Yes. Is there a fancy – what would the new coach have to do in Miami, similar to the – Doral.
