We're gonna go 15-1. The sky's not falling yet.

 

This is a benchmark game. This is a young team and they will grow. The sting of the loss is amplified by who beat us. I believe by mid season we will win these games.

 

Oh here we go... really?

Come on, we passed for over 350 yards against a top rate D, hung in all game as well. To even go on this rant is ridiculous. Yes we lost, yes it sucks because it was against the Jets. We weren't going undefeated anyways. It's really not that big of a deal right now.

 

We lost a game.As far as I can tell we have not clinched a playoff spot or have been eliminated yet.

lol.

 

I like you thread even though the truth is hard to swallow.

 

The offensive coordinator is second rate and the rest is work in progress.

 

So by your logic, the Saints, Colts, Vikings, and Jets are second rate.

All four have a loss under their belt, and three of four lost a close game that they could have pulled out in the end (the Colts where the only ones that didn't because they simply got blown out by a division rival).

Way to jump to conclusions. Glad that the coaching staff and players don't share your tendency to go off the deep end in Week 3.

 

Nothing wrong with the coordinator. How about the execution? We were within the 10 yard line 2 times I think and came away with 3 points. Can't win close games like that.

 

Yea, it's just too bad we didn't go undefeated. I mean, elite teams never lose games, ever. Oh, we're not talking about college football? We lost to the Jets. It sucks, but **** happens. You're not going to win them all I'm afraid. We have as good a shot to win the division as anyone. Sanchez will not continue to play as good as he has, and the Patriots defense is very questionable.

 

There are not many elite teams period.

Parity

 

16 games in the regular season. A season that will change 16 times in 16 games and already the panic starts. Oh no we lost a game. Oh no the game didn't get called the way I think it should have. Oh no we lost to the mighty Jets. Oh no we'll never recover. Thank God the coaches and players know how to put this **** behind them or we would go 0-16.

 

has the sky fallen yet? :ducks:

 

Take a step back from the ledge bro. As of the date of this posting there has only been one Elite team that meets your standards and it "was" us. Just not this year.

With that said we are the leagues 2nd or 3rd youngest team. There are plenty of reasons for people to be very excited about this team. Count me among them.

 

And that's why the season gets played. Because over the course of the season a team forms, good, bad or mediocre. 1 game this early in the season will not shape this team to ultimately be a winner, loser or mediocre. 2 weeks ago the Jets were a bust, today the Bears are undefeated. I don't see the Bears going 16-0 or the Jets walking away from everyone as predicted.

How the coaching staff adjusts with the personnel they have will decide were this team ends up.

 

exactl. you can add injuries, how young players will develop, cohesion amongst offensive line, defense, special teams. The team we have today is not indicative of the team we will have in three weeks. Sparanos team dont hit their stride till week 4 or 5 the past couple of years. and i just rewatched that game. we are better than we were last year. we just had some bad luck in this game. it happens. we'll beat the jets next time. i am sure of it

 

I'm a huge miami fan since 1972. Me and my daughters flew down from nyc to the game and my son who goes to Nova, where dolphins train came also. I tel it as it is. Henning does have to go. Before the plays were run I told my son what the dolphins should do in these situations. For example, 2nd and goal from 2yd line, I would have run ronnie 3x up the middle, forget the fade passes, low pct in my eyes. Forget a fg there, you have to get a td and make a statement. Last drive of game, they had plenty of time to run ronnie one of those plays. I would have spread them out 4 wide instead of having 2 wrs on left side and fasano in the middle. Killing our drives with wildcat that wasn't working and losing too many yards. The good was henne and marshall. The bad, whole defense and special teams. I've said this since early last year, they need to fire the special teams coach also, he is atrocius and that goes along with the players who play special teams. Special teams is main reason for our loss. They had great field position all nite along with a blocked punt. The stadium was awesome, fans went nuts including me and my son who was hoarse and mentally drained by end of first qtr ha ha. No lie. Defense looked terrible all nite, jets ran outside on us at will, no containment whatsover. Where was the def we played in minny? I think this game was important as is mondays game. We still have balt and gb and cinn on road. And I don't think we can beat the jets in ny. I think with this schedule we might win 8 games.
