While it is just Thursday morning back in the States and the game is still a few days away, I had some down time and wanted to take the initiative. Venue: Sunlife Stadium Time: 1:00PM TV: Fox Line: Miami -3 http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/odds Should be for an interesting match-up. The Eagles are struggling this season. While being a preseason Super Bowl favorite, at 4-8, Philadelphia is anything but. Michael Vick looks to start after being sidelined the past couple of weeks with a couple of broken ribs. Don't look for him to be taking off running. Miami on the other hand is a team on fire, arguably the hottest team in the league right how. Miam's last 4 wins have come by an average of 21.5 points, outscoring those opponents by an incredible 86 points! Over the last 5 games, Matt Moore has completed 64.3% of his passes with 8 touchdowns and only one interception. The Dolphins defense have been playing like a unit possessed, having not allowed a touchdown in 12 quarters prior to their heartbreaking 20-19 loss to Dallas and had the Raiders shutout midway through the 4th quarter. In addition, they have forced 7 turnovers over their last four games, which will not be good news for the Eagles who lead the league in turnovers, having lost the ball 29 times this season. Although Miami is playing great football, this is the NFC East where Miami has lost the last 8 contests against this division, their last win coming against Dallas on Thanksgiving in 2003. But this ISN'T the same NFC East. History's going to play a factor in this match up, but look for Miami to win, 31-24.

A couple of buddies of mine who are Eagles fans are coming over to watch the game. You think 'phins fans are disappointed...these guys should be on suicide watch...

I knew I shouldn't have gone out so late last night and drank so much... Im at work early... nobody else is here, and for a minute when I saw this I thought it was Sunday... bummer.
I think itll be interesting to see how our defense is able to contain Vick if he starts running around. That being say, the way we've been playing as of late, I think we can beat the Eagles. The interesting thing too will be how Matt Moore is able to do against the Eagles secondary as well. Sure they haven't played too great all year, but any secondary with Asomugha, and Samuels, and DRC I'd say you have to be aware of. -
Luckily for Vick, he gets to return against one of the hottest defenses in the league.
I don't expect him to finish the game.SCall13, ToddsPhins, The_Dark_Knight and 3 others like this. -

He must've meant those hard assed cupcakes we have over here that are as hard as friggin hockey pucks.
Cupcake my ***!!! BlameItOnTheHenne is right. I seriously doubt Vick will be able to finish the game. -
Some Eagles fans think they're going to get stomped.

There is a national story developing..The media is on our side..beat the eagles, and the story will grow..We have a chance during a meaningless year, to form an identity, create a tremendous amount of momentum, and save the image of this franchise..They have to win out to make it all happen, but at least there is something to play for.

when considering this evaluation of the head coach, some still have it open, some do not, however, if those people are not taking into account what kind of affect playing for a lame duck coach can have on players, especially when there was no offseason to hash things out and create some unity amidst the chaos, I don't believe you are making the evaluation fair and objective..

Speaking of such , I haven't been able to read anything regarding JJ and being able to opt out of an option year Pads , still looking to see if I find out out more. -

I really hope we can pull this one off, I'm surrounded by ignorant, homeristic, and just plain stupid Eagles fans.
I don't have a good feeling about the game today, but I'll be ecstatic if it turns out a win for Miami! -

Was hoping to see Maclin out after being downgraded.
Ok, so we need to win. We need Houston to beat Cincy. We need Buffalo to beat SD. We need New Orleans to beat Tennessee. And we need the Jets to lose to KC. It could happen? -
Dolphins run away with this one 34-16

Philly is going to give this Defense more trouble then most recently.

Percy he's been a beast lately. Is Ponder playing? Even with Webb, I'd go Percy.
