    Both are wrong! The ranking is crap, even behind the Broncos, with no defense and no Cutler, maybe a lot less Marshall? BS

    The logo - meh. Not exciting if it is real, don't beleive it is. Clcik it there and the page it takes you too has the real logo....

    As much as it pains me to say it, the Pats are still the team to beat. As long as they have Brady and crew, they are going to be at or near the very top of these rankings every year.

    I like it. I know we are better than that but, let all the rankings say that we suck. Let's surprise everyone again. I'm all for it.

    Prisco explained the ranking. He thinks we'll be 'that team'. The one that takes a step back every year after a surprising rise. The Saints and Ravens were those teams in '07. Hey, it's his opinion. And we have much tougher schedule this year. I expect our record to not be as good as last year.

    But give him credit. In that same ranking he also says in 2010, look out.

    As for New England, they were the best team in the division at the end of the year. They were playing the best football. And they would have done better in the playoffs than us. We won the division, but they're the better team right now until we prove otherwise IMO.

    One game does not a dynasty break :wink2:

    The Pats played well last year and would have won the division had Brady been healthy, that's my own personal feeling. They had a good draft and are the deepest team in the league, it's hard not to see them as the best team in the NFL. I'm a Dolphins fan through and through, but I'm also a realist and I'm willing to give credit when it's due. The Pats are a great team, we have an uphill battle on our hands.

    I didn't even bother to look at our ranking, but after reading Muck's post, I can see where Prisco is coming from. I don't think we'll be that hard off, but we aren't going to be the beneficiaries of an easy schedule and our competition in the AFCE got alot tougher. I think we'll suffer a bit of a setback, how much I don't know, but I don't foresee us winning the division unless everything clicks and the stars are aligned.

    The Pats are always a threat to win the SB, as long as Brady is in NE and they are able to surround him with talent, we shouldn't be so quick to write them off because they are a hated rival. Lets not pretend that the Pats are so far removed from their SB teams that they don't stand a chance at reeling off 2 straight. I know it's tough, I know some people have to swallow extra hard to give praise to the Pats, I don't like it anymore than anyone else, but the Pats are still the most talented team in football IMO.

    Show me another team in the NFL that is as talented, as deep and as dangerous as the Pats.

    And if you say the Dolphins, I swear to God that I will cyberslap you. :pointlol:

    steelers.

    and i hate saying that about the steelers

    but so much of NE talent revolves around brady.

    I don't think the same could nearly be said about pitt. their defense is lethal.

    Seriously right now, 11-5 last season and AFC east champs. I know our schedule is tough and the pats are full strength but i cant see us being lower than #20. And thats the LOWEST. #26 just shows a total lack of disrespect for what we accomplished last season. I mean we really didnt loose any players. If anything we got better.

    Every year there's this schedule talk...personally, I don't like to look too much into it..

    does it look hard? based on last year yes.

    Based on 2009.......who knows? the NFL is a surprise box imho.

    If we are the best team out there, we'll probably be champs, no matter what.

    I agree we may slide back a bit but to 26th??

    And the Bills, who had no decent QB play last year, and horrible protection subtract their Left Tackle and are better than the team that won the division??

    Terrell Owens... he needs someone to THROW him the ball, and
    THAT guy will need five guys to PROTECT him. T.O. did squat with Brad Johnson last year and he'll do little better in Buffalo.

    Yet the Bills are 7 spots higher than us in the power rankings?

    Jauron is clueless and so is Prisco.

    I think that piece was takin from the new sports page at the national enquirer...26th my ***..what the nfl doesnt still know about us is that we are fast becoming one of the best teams in the league at execution....smart players executing difficult formations with no mental errors. were gonna be a much better football team then last year...

    Yep. Granted, I don't see us at #1, and talent-wise, we are still behind the Patriots this year--assuming Brady is actually healthy, but I don't see why we're behind both the Bills and Jets. Neither has a stable QB situation. TO will tear the Bills apart before pre-season is over. If Brady goes down again, the division could be ours again.

    I think Chicago will do well if it's running game is still there to support Cutler. Denver will fail badly this year-Orton isn't ready. How many RBs did they use last year?

    We should at least be in the teens.

    A step back does not = bottom feeder again. So Prisco can kiss my ***. He does nothing to explain why Miami will suddenly become one of the worst teams in the league again. Or how the Jets and Bills will pass them.

    While I also concur that we could take a step backwards this year, I'm still amused at the #26 ranking. That's not a step back. That's more like falling down the hill.

    All I have to say about all this early ranking nonsense is "we'll see". The fact is nobody knows what will happen, just as nobody knew that Miami had a shot at winning the division last year at this time.

    We do have a tougher schedule than last year, but that doesn't mean Miami can't play up to it.

    If you were to ask Brady what his goal is this regular season, it would obviously be to get where Miami was at the end of last season...going into the Playoffs as the AFC East Champion. So they have to unseat us, not the other way around. There will always be popular opinion, but it really doesn't mean ****.

    Until the play hits the field in the Fall, none of this ranking **** has any bearing on reality.

    You know I would love to see a reporter ask him "Does it feel strange knowing that the Dolphins are the team to beat this year?"

    Just to see his smugass response, just to fire up the team come September.
