    Denver, Kansas City, Washington are realistic possibilities. We always seem to steal one from a division rival. I'd say 4 wins is realistic.

    We may not win a game this season.. Matt Moore won't last another week... And Sage Rosenfelds will get beat up quickly... Pat Devlin will lead this team to infamy..

    We will beat Washington and Dallas. Washington, just a feeling... Dallas, because they are just as handy at shooting them selves in the foot as well as we are, and we will probably be sporting the orange jerseys.

    The Dolphins are 0-5 and just got humiliated by the troubled Jets 24-6, and you think they will steal a game from one of our division rivals?

    I think Tebow's gonna play well. He's gonna pull some crazy stuff outta his azz and beat us. John Beck will hand us our only victory. I don't see us winning in Dallas. That's crazy talk. Even if Romo throws the ball to our DB's they'll end up dropping it anyway!

    Hopefully not! 1-15 baby. I don't care anymore, this team is the biggest joke in the NFL, might as well just ****ing suck the rest of the season and get the #1 pick. Who cares? Even he ESPN twitter feed mocked the Dolphins saying "The only person who can save the Dolphins now is Ace Ventura: Pet Detective." The colts at least have Manning coming back in 2012, so they aren't the biggest joke.

    It's over, time to cheer for the FUTURE, not for a crappy win over the Broncos or Redskins.

    I certainly hope there aren't any games left we can win. It takes a lot of hard work to lose games in the NFL and so far so good. We got a perfect season going and I think we can all appreciate it. However we've got competition with the Rams and Colts for that perfect season. We've got to go out there and really show that we don't want to win every Sunday from here on out. One thing that's vastly underrated about the Miami Dolphins is the creative ways that they come up with to lose winnable games.

    Maybe Denver and Washington because of Tebow and Beck. We're not beating KC in Arrowhead. The rest of the games all losses.

    Maybe: Denver, KC & Oakland (w/ Boller starting only). At most, we win two of those three. #SuckForLuck

    For the first time in over forty five years as a Dolphin fan, I will be playing golf this Sunday while the Dolphins are playing a regular season game. The game will no doubt be blacked out in Miami and I have absolutely no desire to spend my hard earned money purchasing tickets to see this team. If there are actually 40,000 fans in the stands, I will be totally surprised.

    Tebow is likely to throw for 300+ and run for 100+ against us.

    Honestly, I think this team is going 0-16. This team has no desire to win. Part of me wonders if Tony is trying to get fired. Brandon Marshall simply doesn't care, but I've always maintained that he only cares about himself. As long as he gets his targets, he's happy.

    Oct. 23 Denver 1:00 PM CBS - (Tebow Day) - It's a home game masquerading as an away game. Tebow will obviously be fired up but that doesn't necessarily guarantee anything. This could be a win.

    Oct. 30 at New York Giants 1:00 PM CBS - Hard to see us doing anything on our return trip to the Meadowlands. Loss.

    Nov. 6 at Kansas City 1:00 PM CBS - Kansas City is human at home, but the fanbase has been energized after two consecutive wins. KC is not playing Suck for Luck, they are actually trying to win games. Could be a win, but it's going to be very tough.

    Nov. 13 Washington 1:00 PM FOX - For some reason I envision John Beck gifting us our first win of the season, but with this team, you never can tell. If Grossman starts this will be a loss. Let's call it a toss-up.

    Nov. 20 Buffalo 1:00 PM CBS - We seem to split with Buffalo every year. I find it hard to believe that we won't win at least one division game.

    Nov. 24 at Dallas (Thurs.) 4:15 PM CBS - With this team's infatuation with Dallas, I doubt we'll even dress for the game and we will simply hand them a loss. Then we'll make another trade for someone who's gone downhill. Loss. On national TV. Again.

    Dec. 4 Oakland 1:00 PM CBS - This hinges on whether or not Oakland continues to start Kyle Boller. If they manage to trade for Palmer or Orton I think we're in serious trouble. If Boller starts we have a chance. Too soon to tell really.

    Dec. 11 Philadelphia 1:00 PM FOX - Philly, for all their problems, is going to get on a roll, and we get to play them once they have everything figured out. Mike Vick is going to have fun playing against this defense. Loss.

    Dec. 18 at Buffalo 1:00 PM CBS - In Buffalo? In December? Loss.

    Dec. 24 at New England (Sat.) 1:00 PM CBS - In New England? In December? Loss. Maybe we get lucky and New England rests their starters, allowing their backups to play and keeps it competitive.

    Jan. 1 New York Jets 1:00 PM CBS - Final game of the season fellas! Play for Sparano! Play for pride! Play for ... ah hell this is a loss and we all know it.

    So when you break it down, I have us losing 6 games (New York Giants, Dallas, Philly, Buffalo, New England, New York Jets), winning 3 (Denver, Kansas City, and Buffalo) with two Toss-ups (Washington and Oakland). Assuming we split the two toss-up games and our record finishes at 4-12, which is just off the 6-10 I initially projected for this team. 4-12 should be just enough for us to have the second or third overall pick in the NFL Draft, which is right where I think we will finish.

    At this rate?

    Any game we win will be a surprise, seriously, when the players simply will not perform in any situation you put them in, what exactly is left to do?

    We win some games, it will be accident, the thing folks should keep in mind, we got all sorts of lucky bounces v the Jests and still lost by 18 pts, this team is a mess.

    At least you're finally coming around Pad. This team is terrible, in every phase. How many fumbles were there last night? 4?

    No fire, no desire, no passion, no guts, no nothing. Going through the motions. Yeah, we're likely to simply un-luck our way to a win but it won't be because we played some great game.

    It is possible that Miami could slip up and win the Denver game, but that may be only because I think Denver is trying to tank. However, do not underestimate Tim Tebow's desire to win. If Denver actually puts forth a game plan, spreads the field out, and uses Tebow's dual threat ability, he will shred Miami's defense.

    I think Denver is going to win. the atmosphere at the stadium is going to be absolutely toxic.

    I'm a season ticket holder and this is different than 2007. In 2007 people actually wanetd the etam to get that one win, the atmosphere wasn't quite so toxic. Now, I think the vast majority of fans in that stadium will be actively rooting for the Fins to lose.

    I've never been to a game where I've booed the Fins, but I just might on Sunday. I'm also getting my paper bag ready.

    I would be more likely to cheer if Ross shows me his commitment to suck for Luck today by dumping Wake, MArshall and dansby for whatever you can get

    I really do not know what to say about this team, receivers drop passes, running backs fumble, the defense is easily read and gives up dummy scores.

    Keep in mind, Sparano had 2 weeks to prep them, and they laid a huge egg, Moore was not helped out at all.

    I haven't watched any Denver games this year but I don't get the feeling that they're tanking, despite the Elway connection. Tebow will fire that team up and will them to at least 3 more wins the rest of the way IMO. Hopefully one of the three is next week, it is imperative that we lose to Denver, because the Colts are guaranteed to be sitting at 0-7 next week after playing the Saints.

    Speaking of the Colts, THAT is a team where I think some shadiness might be going on. They've manufactured losses to winnable games more than once.

    I still want 1 win...we need 1 win....

    last night, I have never watched a football team be handed what should have been a 21-0 lead and some how turn it into a 6-7 deficit, then to watch the D collapse and give up its 1 TD possession a half mentality to go into halftime at 6-14 deficit. Uncanny. That game has 21-7 halftime lead written all over it.:sad::no:

    If Sparano is fired we may get an interim coach and usually the team gets an uplifting by the change.Remember the the chest bumping Bates after beating a much superior Pats team.

    So the SFLs should better hope that Sparano lasts the season.

    Yessir, they do not close out...anything...at all

    That is what is such a problem we cannot do anything well enough to act as a foundation, the backs fumble, the Wr's drop balls, how are you going to build anything on such a non exitant foundation?

    Glazer is reporting that the Raiders traded a 2012 first round pick and a conditional pick for Palmer. Not sure if it's true though.

    EDIT: Make that they are "close" to a trade that is expected to be announced by the deadline. Whatever the means. Supposedly Hue Jackson is close to Mike Brown and really worked him over.
