    Hate being negative... I really do.

    But man, these last 5 games are brutal. The only game that stands out as a win could really only be JAX and thats no walk in the park. We've never beat the Texans. The Steelers lost to the Ravens last night so they wont be resting anyone. The Titans now look like contenders with VY being 5-0 as a starter. And weve got the Pats rolling into town this Sunday. Man, im nervous! How in the world do we get on track and win these games? We gave up 24 points to the Jills in the 4th quarter yesterday, what in the world is going on???? Lets get it fixed!

    Im crossing my fingers for an 8-8 finish this year.

    Big Ben's concussion is more serious than the led anyone to believe they are starting Dixon who has 1 career start.

    As for "winnable"?

    All of them, we have no cans of corn left on the schedule.

    After the Bills game, I don't really know what to think as a fan. I'm never one to say don't go down without a fight so long as there's hope, but yeah, that door is closing really fast. For all intents and purposes the remaining regular schedule games we'll have to finish perfect, and keep our fingers crossed for a bit of help from other teams.

    I understand that every game is winnable, but do you guys think we win out? I am very excited to see if this team can bounce back and give it to NE, and we better i spent 250 bucks on tix and i wanna see a fight!

    But dang, this schedule is brutal!

    They are all winnable, seriously, we played the Pats tough in the first game with a lead heading into the 4th qtr, to me they are the most difficult game left on the schedule.

    After the games are played a single winner emerges...but going into the games they are winnable.

    I am sure you thought Buffalo was a winnable game....it still was.....the fact that we lost didnt change the answer going in.

    We have 5 games remaining...and going in....all 5 are winnable.


    And I bet Buff fans on their site said, we have 6 games remaining....ahhh damn, the Dolphins are next no way we win that.....!!!!! thats the joke of all this whine and cheese fest.

    I think we were a better team when we played the Pats the first time.

    Any given Sunday. But it's going to be really tough.

    True, a loss to the Pats this weekend, barring bizarre circumstances, would end any real hope of a playoff run.

    Bizarre as in the Ravens, Steelers, Titans all slump and either the Jags or Texans do as well.

    Basically, this game on Sunday is a "must win" that 0-3 start just left us with no margin for error.

    Honestly, before last week I thought we would only lose 1 more game.

    Now...if we play like we have in the 4th quarter in every game and Henning keeps calling games like this....I say we are looking at:

    NE: LOSS
    JAGS: WIN
    TENN: LOSS
    HOUSTON: LOSS
    PITT: LOSS

    I think we will be very lucky to win two of our last five games. I doubt very much we reach 500 on the season.

    All of these last 5 are winable, but they've got to keep doing what they do best, and that is run the ball. To me we keep putting the game in Henne's hands and he's not quite ready for that yet. Keep grinding it out on the ground, mix in a little play action here and there and we can do this!

    We're capable of beating all five teams. Now, will we actually beat all five, probably not. I'd like to see us go out and win at least three of them, though to finish .500, then concentrate on the offseason, getting better.

    It would be nice to run the table, but I just think we're - obviously - missing something that will keep that from happening.

    I think next week will be the toughest, though, so if we could get that out of the way, who knows??

    I think you'll see a much better effort next week. It'll be interesting to see if Porter shows up this time after being completely shut out against the Patsies in Foxboro.

    If this team isn't motivated to go out and turn things around next week, I don't know when they will be! We're capable of beating the Pats, we just need someone, anyone to make at least one or two more impact plays then last time to make it happen. Easier said then done, but we've seen it done, many times, by worse Dolphin teams against better Patriot teams!
