    Hopefully Miami can be the Bane of their existence.


    Totally just kidding, BTW. I'm not ruling out the possibility of the Dolphins winning in Pittsburgh. Will be tough, though.

    I just watched the Steelers Ravens game. I don't see a way, and I hate to say that.
    If Ben is healthy and L'Veon is running like this..... We could see Jacksonville Part II.

    Last game we sent Ben to the sidelines. Maybe a repeat.

    big ben is probably the 2nd best QB in the playoffs... we will need to bring our A game.

    We may have won the recent encounter due to Roethlisberger leaving the game but he did throw 2 picks in the time he was in.

    Mr. Wake might have some influence on him.

    In the AFC or the entire NFL? If you mean AFC, I can agree with that. If you meant NFL, he's around 8th.

    Bell will be the X factor though.

    Our LBs cannot hang with him.

    We're so beat-up right now. Both our starting safeties from earlier in the year are out now. I don't know if Jones played vs the Steelers but even if not, we still had #24 out there. Now we don't. Jenkins is a shell of himself if he plays at all.

    I don't want the team to have a 'we're happy to be there' attitude, but, as a fan, I'm happy they got there.

    Didn't we beat them in pittsburgh the year we were like 7-9 or something? Didn't we beat them this year already? everyone is acting like this is a simple 1 and done, but we've beaten pittsburgh the last 2 times we played them, and one of those was with philbin.......I don't get the doom n gloom of we are 1 and done.

    of the qb's in the playoffs? other than brady, i'm not sure, maybe rodgers ahead of ben, but ben won 2 rings, imo, i would rank ben 2nd best qb of qb's playing in the playoffs, with stats playing a small role in my decision.


    I dont see doom and gloom, i think most people recognize we would be an underdog, but pitt is playing very well ben will get it to brown and bell is dangerous. not saying we can't win, but it would be an upset. everyman would need to step up.

    Yes, playoffs.

    Brady, Wilson, Eli, Rodgers, Dak, Ryan, and Stafford are all playing better than Ben this season. And Brady, Wilson, Eli, and Rodgers have all played better in the playoffs than Ben. I could see putting Ben ahead of maybe one or two of those guys, but nowhere near 2nd best QB in the playoffs.

    Our LBs can't hang with an octagenarian so them not hanging with another running back is nothing new.

    With the latest injuries I don't see it either. We would hVe to have luck on our side and get every bounce. Still it will be a good learning experience

    I don't understand these perspectives....we haven't been winning because of our ability to shut down the run. If we were strong there, we'd be blowing teams out. We're winning due to forcing turnovers, playing tough on 3rd down, high pressure on the quarterback and a great run game. I think we match up against Pitt just fine.

    That clip is hilarious, the field is collapsing behind the return man and he just jogs into the end zone and turns around. He's less excited than he would be on an ordinary touchdown!

    the wake suh sandwich could make this game interesting, I think brown is the key, we will coral bell he will have his avg game, but brown is the key if we can get consistent pressure on ben its going to be a good game. good week to test our blitzes this week against brady.

    Ah.....I see. And...what per chance did you predict for our first meeting in Miami?

    You know when Ben was healthy? And we had just lost to TN?

    So Miami....Team wins 9 of last 10....and their fans are convinced we have no chance against Pittsburgh...whom we beat 30-10 earlier in the season.

    Are yall just gonna wait till we win a Super Bowl before you start to believe in this team? Way to stick your neck out....

    This is why prediciting your favorite teams outcome is stupid.

    If you predict them to lose you can say "See I told you so, I know football." And if they win you can say "I'm glad they won."

    I'm a Dolphins fan and I think they are going to win every game.
