Cam Cameron Wants You to Know Everything Is Fine in Miami


Earlier this week, Dolphins defensive tackle Keith Traylor said he wouldn't lose any sleep if head coach Cam Cameron got canned. He also said not everybody on the team is "out to get a victory," which explains the 0-12 start. Traylor's comments led to speculation that Cameron had lost his team, but apparently, there's nothing to worry about. Except, well, maybe there is:
Asked if he has seen any dissension from his players, Cameron said, ``I don't sense any of that.'' That might be true. Cameron might not yet sense it. But it certainly appears to be brewing -- and it was obvious for the first time in the locker room after Sunday's loss...

Whether Cameron wants to believe it or not, all of his players aren't buying into his message. In the locker room after Sunday's game, cornerback Will Allen made it clear that he doesn't.
"When it boils down to it, they say `team game, team game, team game,' but this really is an individual game,'' Allen said. ``I worry about myself. I don't worry about [Cameron's job security] much.''

Huh, that sounds like a variation on Taylor's comments. This isn't shocking, I guess. The Dolphins are a dreadful outfit, under the direction of a first-year coach, and many of the veteran players aren't buying into Cameron's "system." Twelve losses later, and there's a little dissension in the locker room. Winning solves a lot of problems, but who knows if Cameron will be around to get that chance.
