Fox Sports Peter Schrager So, which AFC team will step up by the end of the season? The one team that was supposed to be the pits. ... The Miami Dolphins. Read entire article here: http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/...-Baltimore-Ravens-New-England-Patriots-102312 Good positive read about our Dolphins.
Good read. Thanks for posting it. It's nice to get attention from the media on things some of us have been saying all along.
I think he meant defense. EDIT: Annnnnd nope because they're 19th in points and 23rd in Yards defensively
Its fun that their odds of making the playoffs increased while they were on the bye though, according to football outsiders. As of right now, they're the clear choice as a wildcard team in the AFC, based on their metrics. That can only improve with a win at NYJ this week.
The afc is uber weak but im not buying the playoff talk anymore than the doom n gloom talk from a few weeks back. IMO this season is all about putting philbin's stamp on the squad, seeing who can play n who can't, developing the young guys and identifying what needs to be fixed in the offseason. 2013 is when i expect to be having this convo, we're a few tweaks away from stomping on fools
This season IS bringing fun back to us long-suffering Dalphans, but I'm not ready to annoint us to the playoffs just yet. Get some missing skill spots filled in April and look out AFC next season! One thing I AM sure of, we're going to make most games fun to watch, and we will see Tannehill develop into our long term franchise QB, and we will win a few games we're not expected to win. And all that's good enough for me
