Woodly took us to a Super Bowl, he should be ahead of Fiedler.
Actually it was Andra Franklin and the Killer B defense that took us to the Superbowl. Woodley was an average QB at best.
Franklin's stats: (Remember this was a stike shortened 9 game schedule, not 16 games)
ATT YDS AVG TD
177 701 4.0 7That would have been over 1200 yards rushing for 16 games.
And from
Wikipedia"In the strike-shortened 1982 NFL season, the Dolphins, led by the "Killer B's" defense (Bob Baumhower, Bill Barnett, Lyle Blackwood, Kim Bokamper, Glenn Blackwood, Charles Bowser, Doug Betters, and Bob Brudzinski), held five of their nine opponents to 14 or fewer points en route to their fourth Super Bowl appearance. During the first two rounds of the 1982–83 NFL playoffs, they got revenge for previous losses, crushing the New England Patriots, 28–13 (revenge for the infamous Snow Plow game at Schaeffer Stadium played earlier in the season) and the San Diego Chargers, 34–13 at the Orange Bowl. In successive games against San Diego and the NY Jets, the ballhawking Miami defense logged ten interceptions, five each against Dan Fouts and Richard Todd. After shutting out the New York Jets in the AFC Championship 14–0 (aided by Shula's alleged instructions to the stadium's grounds crew to leave the field uncovered throughout a week-long rain in Miami, which was done to negate the Jets superior edge in team speed), the Dolphins lost Super Bowl XVII to Washington, 27–17. After enjoying success rooted in a defense-first philosophy, and employing a ball control offense to take pressure off of lackluster quarterbacks, the next 17 seasons would be marked by an average rushing game and defense that limited a great quarterback."Woodley's stats in '82

To be fair he also had 207 yards rushing (5.8 avg) and 2 TD's. He was a better RB than QB. He started because he was more mobile than Strock and could avoid sacks better and with the D Miami had, they didn't need much offense, they just needed to avoid negative yardage.
