With the games yesterday fully behind us, time to turn towards the upcoming game in the rematch.
My Dolphin friends (no, not the wife) have already started the chatter.
I will admit, straight up, that I am more worried about the Dolphins at this point, than the Patriots.
I hated the way that game went down in Miami and with Jenkins and Leon out for the season, just less weapons to use.
The good and bad news is, we all know the game plan. The Jets and Dolphins are going to run the ball all day long, best team to run the ball, gets the win.

Too soon BZ....
We need a day to pull the knife out of our hearts from that Saints game.
But I do look forward to another great smash mouth game in this rivalry. That Jenkins loss is huge. Not to mention I think Leon was your best skill position player. Heres to hoping the fins get back on the winning track. -
I was semi-watching the Dolphins/Saints game (two screens, in a split household).
A few things:
- The running game and the wildcat are still a huge thread
- Your corners are getting better
- TGJ is not

we can talk all we want, but no means are either teams in position to talk any smack, both teams play has not been something to be proud of..

Hi BZ -

Yeah after blowing that game, I don't even feel like making fun of the Jets right now...
God... how sad is that?USArmyFinFan likes this. -
next weeks game will not be on the same huge stage, in front of the world to see. it will be the lesser, smaller game. its the monday night game that everyone will remember. but our season is on the line.

Good to see your civility BZ, but that's what we have grown to expect from you.
I think this NO loss is going to linger with us for the rest of the season.
I also think everybody realizes Dirty Sanchez is a mediocre QB.
I think everybody realizes that your defense is going to be good, but not great.
I think the Washington injury REALLY hurts you, but it also let's your best player drafted this year into the game more.
I think we will digress some as a team, and how we rebound from that terrible loss will show what make-up the team actually has.
I think its gonna be another very good game, and perhaps the one advantage we have is that while you are playing cream-puffs, you are actually one of the easier teams for us to play this year.
Good luck :up: -

It sucks that Leon got hurt like that.
-
Ouch.
Since the Dolphins already beat the Jets, you guys should look ahead to the Patriots, the true matchup.
BZ -
Honestly I don't think it's smart to look ahead on any team, even as a fan. You'll be in for a rude awakening if they upset you, and a really ****ty morning the next day.
We went toe to toe with the Jets. They lost Jenkins, we lost Allen. Rex Ryan admittedly did not plan like he should have for our game. That may be a load of crap to take the heat off the loss, but maybe it isn't. It's going to be another drag out game I feel, and while I have faith that we can win, I do NOT think it's going to be a gimme game.opfinistic likes this. -
It should be an intresting game, the Jets riding high coming of a bounce back win and the Dolphins are pissed coming off a heartbreaking loss. -
You have to remember we beat the Jets with 6 seconds left in a rocking Joe Robbie stadium on a Monday night. The Jets and Dolphins are very similar talent wise this year. Its gonna be a smash mouth game.NJFINSFAN1, Pagan, Themole and 1 other person like this. -
I too still can't get over that Saints loss,but I am looking forward to playing the Jets again. It should be another hard fought interesting game to add to the great rivalry. I just hope neither team suffers anymore injuries during the game,both teams have had our fair share of injuries.
-
Question is, can the Dolphins take the show on the road, after a horrible loss, come of the warm womb of South Florida, up to cold blustery NJ for a game of smash mouth football without "FINS UP" every five seconds on the video boards?
Can Chad Henne, now with a little tape on him, play on the road?
BZ -
This game is about the run, establish it and win. Stop it and win.
I doubt we will see both rookie QBs look so flawless though... and I am really hoping Pace can get to Henne this time (now that he is in football shape).

vs raiders.
Id rather have you guys play with two powerbacks rather than TJ and leon.
We have you guys, and pats.
If we split these games, we would be 3 and 5 going in to a stretch of bucs, panthers, bills, pats jax, titans and houston.
I think it fair to agree that season is far from over.
our remainder of the schedule is easier than yours, which should benefit us in the long run. -
It was wise to mention first the weather, then our QB but leave Dirty Nasty Sanchez out of it :lol:
Sorry, but that kid throws a very light ball
Looks fairly good in warm sunny confines, but more like a girl threw it in the cold :up: -

Bwana = Mr
Zulia = Carpet
In Swahili... I ran a carpet company in Kenya. (long story)
Patriots twice (L)
Bills (cold) (L)
Jets (L)
Texans (L)
Steelers (L)
You can take out the Jags/Panthers/Bucs
That leaves you at 6-10.
Grab the Bills and one of the Pats games, 8-8.

honestly the jets right now are not that interesting for us. if we beat you guys it proves nothing. we have to beat better teams than yours. probably goes for both teams. i'm sure you feel the same way about us. dont know why but this just seams like a "loser bowl" to me, like we're playing for the silver medal or something.

We split with pats, maybe.
We beat Bills, cold? We played in our coldest game EVER last year, and put up 40 points. I dont think cold will be as big of a factor.
Jets? What has changed since the last time we played? We lost our starting CB, sure, Sanchez and Edwards developed a bit of chemestry, but you guys lost your run stopping NT. We run the ball. Hmmm. Plus, Sanchez has yet to prove he can play in the cold. Henne started in big 10 for 4 years, i think its safe to say that climate will bother Nacho more than Henne. Texans, im not sure, why loss? Because they have Andre? They let Alex Smith score 21 by himself on them. Steelers will be a loss, unless they sit their starters, which is a possibility of they play the way they played yesterday.

I of course mentioned bringing the weather into it.
Its been made very obvious there is one important factor your FO forget to navigate when studying Dirty Sanchez.
Cold Weather=5 Int's. :up: -
My advice (and yes, I heed this when I am at the Dolphins stadium, 9 years and counting).
1. Be respectful, take the smack, try not to give it back.
2. Cheer FOR your team, not AGAINST the other team. You have a big run, cheer.
3. Always keep it friend. A smile, a hand shake, all of that go a long way to proving you are a good fan.
4. DO NOT TURN AROUND! Never! EVER turn around and look back up at the fans behind you. Don't do it! No matter what is being said, just stay cool.
Many many years going to games at the stadium with my wife (Dolphins fan) and brother (Pats fan) and the only times things get out of hand is when someone eggs **** on.
Don't be that guy.
99% of fans are good people, you just want to avoid that 1%.
