Traylor benched due to fight with teammate

If Keith Traylor's career is over, it ended on a sour note. The Dolphins banished the starting defensive tackle for the season's final game, a result of an argument he had with another player on the flight back ...

Did Parcells quit yet?

[Karl Tampa]

This is uglier than I thought! This team and the coahcing staff will look completely different next year!

[Dr K]

Who gives a damn about a bunch of over stuffed jive turkeys.....let em all get the hell out of here.....the stiffs.

[Bill]

Ethan! what we want to know is, who was he in a fight with? Now that is what a good reporter reports. Bill p.s. you don't need to be scare of the Tuna, hew won't fired you.

[The laughing liberal]

weird

[lebron]

What a bunch of losers!!!

[Painkiller Jeff]

RE: Joey Porter challenged coach Cam Cameron at a team meeting for not acting quickly enough to break up the fight on the plane.

Interesting.

[gary185]

that is even more of a reason to play him at least 1 player has some fight in him tralor you have my permission to kick anybodys a$$ you want too. Go Truck

[caMORON]

camoron is the biggest dork coach I have ever seen!!!

so long dork!

[nick]

he's just another scumbab with a temper.

[crazymonkey]

Oh, please. Porter questioning Cameron as to why he didn't break up the Traylor vs.? argument? There's an irony in Porter's criticizing his coache's lack of peacemaking that has to be appreciated. Porter has firmly established himself as the team clown.

I don't like hearing the players bail on the coach which is what this is and for who. I don't care what Traylor has done in the past and that he won Superbowls elsewhere, he has sucked this year and the Phins would have been better off had he retired after last year.

Give Cam a QB (hopefully it can be Beck) and the offense would have been solid and won some games for the team. The D was the most pathetic all year, never stopping anyone when it counted including Baltimore. Keep Cam and Randy and get more talent for 2008 and the team will suprise. Ronnie and Lorenzo will be a great backfield with Ricky backing them up.

Go Phins.

When you give a piece of crap like Joey Porter "guaranteed money" he's going to run his mouth like the idiot that he is with no fear of repercussions. The Dolphins have made their bed, now they have to sleep in it.

[TommyB]

get in there Traylor. I hope it was Lemon for not going into the Endzone the play before he went half heartedly in and missed the pylon. the previous play he had a clear run and no one near him,talk about a Team player. give me Traylor anyday

[Ken in San Diego]

OK, the real issue here is that there is a real war in the locker room and that Cam is the loser. His disrespecting of veteran leaders such as Jason Taylor and Keith Traylor would not play well anywhere in the league.

I discount anything Chatman or Lemon says about Cam, because they are loyalists from their Charger connections and Cam's favortism. But when you have OPEN DEFIANCE of the coach in the locker room, it is time for the coach to exit.

Fire Cam tonight. And begin cleaning out the malcontents in the locker room and the players who are quitters.

[mofo]

dear lord -- y'all are naive--Truck is worth ten Sham Shamorons. Please Tuna, Act Now!!

[The Original WTF]

What kind of reporting is this?? Who did he fight ?? Joey Porter ?? the man was useless this year ?? He did not compete on the field. But he did collect a check .. Traylor should have been allowed to play.

[Max]

This reminds me of the debacle Randy Shannon inherited at the Um and is doing a fine job cleaning out people who thought they could run the team.

Some people cannot lead a team only be a good assistant

[Enrique]

Remember Saban juts loved veteran players. he was NOT a pro coach and these old farts ran the team.

The big Tuna is what is needed.

[Obvious Truth]

The way the Fins looked this year I'm not shocked at this news.

Cam is a pathetic leader and poor decision maker; I'm not suprised at all to hear that he failed to stop an altercation before it went too far, he shows as much leadership as whoever it was allowed Usama Bin Ladin to escape while going after Saddam Hussein!

A 1-15 season, all the while having to sit and watch great players let go, but now doing extremely well with other teams!

...and say what you will, but Traylor is one of the few players that should remain of the Dolphin's "leaky" defense!
