Ronnie Brown

Wow, what a difference a year makes. At this time last year, Dolphins fans were still hoping for their team's first win of the season. It was a horrible season that tested the very heart of a TRUE FIN FAN! Then came possibly the best hiring decision owner Wayne Huizenga has ever made. Hiring Bill Parcells as V.P. of Football operations.

Williams has no touchdowns vs. Brown’s five.

Brown is tied for the league lead with five touchdowns.
