Playoff hope?!?

RickyNeverInhaledNew MemberOPAs i type this there is 3 teams in the AFC East that are 1-1 and the 4th team is on the way to 1-1 as they are losing 20-10 with 8 minutes in the 3rd quarter.
Does this change anyones realistic hopes for the season?
As long as we don't fall 3 games back from the lead I would have to say I have hope!
If we keep playing the way we have been playing, minus the 2-5 minutes of improbable non-sense, I think we have a chance, specially with our schedule!
dolfan32323New MemberWell, we aren't eliminated yet but I'm not holding my breath.
sports24/7subscriberLet's not get ahead of ourselves. The Raiders are a pretty bad team and had to come east and play in hot weather and the Dolphins still showed some big holes. I thought the doom and gloom of last week was overstated, but let's let this team win a few before we start talking about the playoffs.

Crappy TipperNew MemberWay to early for me to even consider entertaining that hope.

Long way to go.
definitely, but you have to love the chance so far. we could easily be 0-2 with no half time adjustments and behind 2 teams that could be 2-0. just saying, things are in our favor with a long way to go.
BuckeyeKingNew MemberI don't think so. If we ever get into a shoot out we wont win. Not enough weapons out wide.

Super bowl!!!!
I know you are being scarcastic, even my optimism would never utter those words. realistically i see hope for a wild card spot in the playoffs. If we win the division I would be shocked and very happy!

my phone won't let me watch the video but i assume its either the herm edwards or jim morra "playoffs!" video. am i right? lol
padre31luxury_boxWe'll see, the Jest will be a great test for us, they will run blitz and pretty much force THill to make some plays.
If he can do that, then we can think a playoff run, but still, a bit dubious here/

I will try to remember to bring this thread back to the top every week and see if it is any more or less dubious! lol

I hear ya buddy! I will only mention that once we get our foot in the door in the playoffs. There's actual reason for hope since we finally used a first round pick on a QB since i was born! Next year we will be much better off because we are already in great position next off-season!

No sarcasm, just a lot of alcohol.
Dorfdadforum_veteranNO STOP even dreaming at this point. Lets just hope Tannehill continues to get better.. Thats our victory this year.
Alex44New MemberWell the things in our favor would be:
A) A laughable schedule
B) No team in our division is very good. Save me on the Patriots talk....minus Brady their roster is worse than ours by far.
On the draft Quentin Rollins bandwagon.
RickyNeverInhaledNew MemberIt's official! We are either in a 4 way tie for first or a 4 way tie for 4th! lol. Playoff hopes are equal for fans of all 4 teams.

That's all I am saying. With that being said, would you agree there is hope for the playoffs?

I think there is hope in the sense that if Tannehill keeps improving we have a legitimate chance to win most if not all of our games, and I don't see anyone else running away with it.
Remember we didn't think we had a shot in 2008 and I honestly believe this team is far better than that team was talent wise.
On the draft Quentin Rollins bandwagon.
ExplosionsInDaSkyforum_veteranI am always going to hope for the playoffs and as many wins as possible but there are some moral victories here as well that I actually have put in front of winning for a chance.
For me it's more important that Ryan Tannehill continues to prove that he belongs in the NFL as a franchise QB. It's more important that some of these young guys and young vets continue to improve and establish themselves moving forward. I'll take wins and I will certainly take playoffs if we can get there but I don't think we can know much until the 3/4 point of the season. At that point If Tannehill is still standing, Bush is still healthy and our defense is still playing at a high level we can talk playoffs. Right now though it's just one game at a time.
