For 16 full seasons under owner Stephen Ross (since Jan. 20, 2009), the Miami Dolphins have zero playoff wins and zero division titles. Miami’s last playoff win was Dec. 30, 2000. That is this era’s result.

Leadership and accountability (Grier/McDaniel):
Chris Grier has been GM since 2016 and has run football operations since 2019; across that control window Miami still owns zero playoff wins and opened 2025 at 0–3. Mike McDaniel is 28–23 across 2022–24 with 0–2 in the postseason and has also started 2025 at 0–3. Local reporting says no coaching change is imminent—“patience” after 0–3 is not urgency. 

2025 roster-building and readiness fell short:

• Heavy cap commitment without January returns: Tua Tagovailoa’s 4-yr, $212.4M extension (up to $221.4M) includes a $42M bonus, $93.171M fully guaranteed at signing, and rolling guarantees that reduce flexibility. 
• TE “fix”:  Trade our starting TE & sign out of retirement Darren Waller (1-year deal) missed Weeks 1–3; coaches plan a snap-count debut in Week 4. Minimal early impact from a headline move.  - • Lesson unlearned: Odell Beckham Jr. in 2024 cost $3M for 9 receptions, 55 yards (0 TD) before his Dec. 13 release. 
• QB2 gamble: Zach Wilson signed one year, $6M fully guaranteed (up to $10M) to back a starter with an injury history. 

Governance has already cost competitive capital:
In 2022, the NFL stripped Miami’s 2023 1st-round pick and fined/suspended Ross for tampering. That is a documented, self-inflicted hit to football operations. 

Meanwhile, the business around the team thrives:
Ross’s organization has aggressively expanded non-football ventures at Hard Rock Stadium—Formula 1’s Miami Grand Prix is locked through 2041 (longest F1 deal), and the Miami Open moved to Hard Rock under a multi-decade partnership. Those are major commercial wins; the football side remains without a single playoff win under Ross. 

Bottom line: Under Ross—with Grier running football ops and McDaniel as HC—the Dolphins keep choosing patience over urgency and headlines over hard needs (OL, Starting QB,  QB depth). Sixteen seasons, zero playoff wins, an 0–3 start, reactive band-aids, and public “patience” are not the standard this city deserves.

Our ask: We, the undersigned Miami Dolphins fans, call on Stephen Ross to sell the team so new ownership can install an urgent, football-first culture—investing in the trenches, planning for contingencies, holding leaders accountable—and finally delivering January wins worthy of Miami.
