Now, of course take the points, too, since you can get 'em. Intangibles are lining up for us big time in this one: Coming off a confidence-boosting win against one of the better teams in the league. Underdogs by at least a touchdown at home, which is an insult. Division rival the team has beaten in the past, even when it was inferior to them. Strong desire to get back to .500 on the season and stay in playoff contention. Patriots perhaps looking ahead to their MNF game next week against the Texans, and then the one the week after against the 49ers. Trap game. Team coming off Ryan Tannehill's first fourth-quarter, come-from-behind win, which likely energized the roster and boosted its confidence. Running game has been showing flashes of coming back around, which boosts confidence. And last but not least, the most important variable of them all: That ****ing stadium is gonna be PACKED, Jack! Imagine the difference the players will feel coming out to that reception. The energy will be palpable. Bet on us to win.
Love the enthusiasm but have to agree with the bolded part. We may win or we may get blown out by 30. I think the latter is likelier.
the stadium will be packed with a ton of pats fans sadly. not trying to be a downer but i bet there will be 20k+ NE fans in town for the game. been seeing a ton of Mass plates and Brady jerseys everywhere.
Their 20 thousand is not coming there to sit on their ***...it should favor us, their 20 k will piss off our 50 k, making for an environment these players haven't seen in a while....any energy, is good energy.
May get ugly but just think...if we get kickoff from the start then its 0-0 and we are not behind. Gotta be positive.
Bet the Dolphins to Win Tomorrow Love the enthusiasm and I agreed with your Jets call but I can't see this one happening. Coyle is going to have to coach his *** off to even keep this one within 2 scores.
I will admit that you were right when it came to picking the Dolphins to easily beat the Jets. Unfortunately, I think you should have stopped your selections right there. While I hope you are correct in picking the Dolphins today. I just don't see the Phins scoring enough on offense and Brady will have a field day against the Dolphins secondary. I think the Patriots will win fairly easily, 41-21.
I love your enthusiasm...but how in the hell do you expect Nolan Carroll, Jimmy Wilson and Sean Smith to cover these guys for 60 minutes? Either they are going to give them a HUGE cushion and it will be a slow death or they will blow right past them. I already promised my wife that I am not allowed to scream Carroll's name during the game. She gets tired of hearing it(please Nolan...just turn and face the ball once...it's easy to scream your name when all you ever show anyone is the back of your jersey)
I hope you're right. I had season tickets for 10+ years (until this year) and that really was only the case when our team didn't go out there and make fools of ourselves. If the Dolphins stay in it our fans will be loud. If they don't it will be a different story. That being said, I hope we go out there and destroy NE silencing those dang Pats fans.
I think he is counting the total number of fans that have showed to all the Fins home games… including pre season...
I saw the NFL Network stat that NE is only 14-32 (or something like in the 31 or 33 loss range) that for games in Miami vs. Dolphins
It's funny, I saw this thread title this morning in my hotel room in Orlando and the first thing I thought was, well that settles it, Dolphins are gonna lose... We'll see...
Well at least with that field goal, if you followed my advice, you didn't lose any money. And in fact, depending on the spread you bet at, you may have won some.
Well they covered the spread, at least my spread at least with 7 1/2, IDK what other people got them at. Glad they went for the field goal now!
You told people to bet the Dolphins to WIN today...which means people who followed your advice did indeed lose money.
See I would have thought the opposite. I'd think a lot of people would have taken the pats, even with that many points Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
