Seriously?

You act as if these are a bunch of 8yr olds playing in JV, not grown men responsible for crafting results in their choosen profession of football. I expect them to win convincingly and will not tolerate anything less as a substitute from them. I want results not excuses!

 

The Pats are heavy favorites but I wont be surprised if we beat them .We have beaten them before as heavy underdogs at the end of seasons including in their SB years .We have nothing to lose so we can take chances and players will want to demonstrate that they deserve those new contracts .

Besides we have split games with our other rivals so we need to split games with the Pats too.

Thats it for my homer rationalization .:wink2:

 

I think most folks have the foregone conclusion that this one probably isn't going to be close. The Pats are playing for a first round bye and most likely will come out focused and ready to play. We should be focused too, but there's a talent disparity that's probably going to come into play.

That, and it's much more fun to argue about Pouncey, Hartline, Tannehill, etc., than it is to get up for a game we're most likely going to struggle in.

 

I care about this game.

I want to be 8-8 like a fat kid wants cupcakes.

 

I hate the Patriots with a passion, so I hope Wake & Co give a real good beating to Tom Brady. [hots of QB hits]


Go Dolphins!

 

I wanna end our season on a 3 game win streak leading into the biggest offseason in franchise history. Plus it's the last game I can watch till September.

**** yeah I care about this game.

 

I wanna beat NE just so Brady won't get victory sex.































........ from whichever player is first to the showers

 

It will probably be Brandon Spikes......and if you've seen the video of him getting blown.....you'll know why.....

 

I'm calling it now: There will be a dropkick in this game.

 

2005. Flutie. The Pats were gonna let us win, but not before they trolled the **** out of us.

IIRC, Matt Cassel came in and almost tied the game late in regulation, but the 2-pt conversion failed.

 

Wait, we have a game this weekend? I thought it was gonna be a coloring contest of our new logo.

 

Despite the loss of draft postion, and even if the game means nothing for seeding purposes (by the time the game is played), I ALWAYS want to see us beat the Pats. We have plenty of time to agonize over the new logo/uniform after this weekend -though we can do both of course! :)

 

I have a good feeling about this game.

 

No real way we can lose this game, either a better draft pick or a .500 season.

Better savior it either way, the one real downside to the NFL is this is one long offseason, the longest in pro sports.

Season ends in February (for 2 teams, most teams their season ends in late Dec early Jan) and nothing until August.

 

To be honest, Im more worried about our potential sh*tty new logo than this game.

 

Times change PSG, as much as I like the classic Dolphins logo I can understand why it should be changed.

I hated the new Broncos logo when it came out, now it just is.

 

I hear ya Pad.
And Im not even against change per se, but this leaked logo is absolute trash.

 

No reason why you cannot worry about both.

 

Agree there, don't mind a change, but a preggers hump backed whale is not exactly the right call.

 

Pro Lifers insisted he keep it.

 

I've said it before. Jeff Ireland shouldn't have a job next year because we failed to make the playoffs for the 4th year in a row. The Dolphins need to be at the very least 8-8 (2 win improvement), for Ireland to have any case in my eyes. Four consecutive losing seasons would get anyone fired in this league, why not him? This is a very important game for Miami.

 

C'mon man. We have to give him time to turn around this thing he messed up. Even then, we'll need to give him more time to turn around that thing. Besides, you can only fire him if you put together a comprehensive list of other GM's and their records. If there are other GM's in the league with 4 straight losing seasons, Ireland can't be fired until those guys are fired. That's a rule in the NFL. You can't base his record on it's on merits, you need to take into consideration how crappy other guys have done as well.

It's like at your job. If you piss off a lot of customers, or cost the company a lot of money, it's OK as long as other employees are just as inept. That's how life works. It's one giant Bell Curve. Everyone knows this.

 

Rook Qb buys an extra year.

And it needs to be pointed out that the same things were said of Rick Smith w/Texans 2 yrs ago.

I'm not the largest Ireland fan, don't get it twisted, as I believe he flubs big deals but nails small ones, which is all fine and great but you have to make those big deals work.

Who cares if your cheesy broccoli is good if your steak is burnt?

 

hot giggidy dogs I have goose bumps just thinking about the oportunity to see the team wear the all white uniforms and end up with a similar reccord to the last 5 or 6 years. I m so excited that I just might give up my night job as a stand up comedian go to football coaching school . :pointlol:

 

Who are the Pats playing?

 

we will lose.

 

well surgeons make a lot of money during this time of the year, its the NFL, they need this long rest to recover

 

I've completely stop caring about this year's Dolphins.. unfortunately. I flip around the other games when they are on, I don't buy the merchandise, passed up an opportunity to see the game live. They are simply boring.

I'll take a casual interest in the draft and get excited next year. But I think a lot of us have to look at the last decade and take a step back emotionally. We live firmly under the Patroit's thumb and apparently will until Brady retires. There's just not enough on the field to become emotionally invested.
