My anger from yesterday's loss just made me fear for the safety of the Houston Texans. I cant imagine the anger these Miami Dolphins have after that gut wrenching loss yesterday. Throw in the fact that we have never beaten the Texans, i fear a severe butt kicking is coming.
I only saw the Texan highlights from yesterday so a full review and assumption cannot be made on my part. But im looking for a nice bounce back from Vontae against Johnson and I can vision Chad Henne throwing the ball well at home.
I know theres not much to this post, but im trying to stay positive and look forward to what i feel will be a big win and a belated xmas gift from my Dolphins.

If we beat the Texans Sunday, it will be the first time ever.
I wouldn't be counting those chickens just yet.Agua, dolfan7171 and krypto like this. -
I agree with Shaunm, the Tennessee game was horrible officiating and despite the turnovers Miami manhandled them. I am expecting the Fins to finally gain that "killer instinct" many have said they lack and this is the perfect time of year for everything to come together on all cylinders. I also predict a Miami blowout.

Had you read my post you would have noticed i mentioned we have never beaten them.
That was then, this is now. Chad Henne hadnt beaten alot of teams until this year and hes 7-4 as a starter. Im counting this chicken now!dolfan7171 and EdSta74 like this. -
It's gonna be tough to get physical at the line with a guy in the shape of Andre. As physical as Vontae is, he is still severely undersized. As always with AJ, and our secondary, we've almost come to expect big plays against our secondary. Especially with the hapless #28 backing up the rookie corners.
That said, they are missing Steve Slaton, so that might be some help in terms of gameplanning against their weapons.dolfan7171 likes this. -
Wow, I read the post title and first thought that you were suggesting the Phins roll over and give the game (it) to the Texans.
Glad I was wrong!
But yeah, I expect this to be a take your frustration out type of game. Although it could be pretty dangerous, if I recall the Texans are out of the playoff race, so they're playing for fun, and pride at this point.dolfan7171 likes this. -
I will be leaving the 2 feet of snow we got Sunday to the sunny skies of South Florida to root for my Phins! Nothing would be sweeter that watching Vontae shut down AJ, Shaub eating alot of Dolphins stadium dirt and Ricky running amok! Go Phins!!!

Ever heard the saying, "A Champion is the Champion until someone takes them out"? Well we have yet to beat the Texans and with our secondary, I have a hard time believing we're going to beat these guys. Anyone else noticed Henne is starting to make questionable throws? I mean yea, he completes them, but those types of throw are way too close for comfort and against a good secondary, would get picked off. On replays, you see the DB's just missing the ball by a hair. You keep knocking on the devil's door and one day he'll answer.

Then why watch the game, why bother trying to beleive in this team? lets just tank the last 2 games to get a better draft position.

You take your "we'll probably lose so I won't be disappointed" approach, I'll take my "we'll probably win and I may drink myself to sleep" approach. :up:siciliansith and dolphinfn3454 like this.

Moss is actually taller than AJ. The main difference between AJ and Moss however, is that AJ is a big-time WR who plays like one 110% of the time. If the ball is in the air and he wants it, he'll take it. He doesn't quit on routes like Moss does. AJ is a guy who has NEVER taken his talent for granted, even when he had chumps lining up under Center (he is a team captain for a reason). That's a lot more than you can say about ole Randy in his short tenure in Oakland.
For the above reasons, having to cover Johnson makes defending Moss look like a walk-in-the park. Which is why I'm so fearful for our young defensive backs. -
They have don't have Welker. That changes the equation entirely.

Well, I think I have pretty good justification for not getting my hopes up in this case.
