Week 9 | Jests @ Dolphins | Game Thread
153 replies
I think I can speak for all of us when I say that if we win any game this season, this is the one we want.
Giant middle finger to Gase, oh, and it's the Jets.
Let's see some Fitzmagic today.
Not to disagree but how does beating the Jets knock them out of the running for the #1 spot?
"Although we are capable of great acts of kindness, history teaches us that we sometimes need saving from ourselves – from our recklessness or our greed. God sent into the world a unique person – neither a philosopher nor a general, important though they are, but a Saviour, with the power to forgive... It is my prayer that on this Christmas day we might all find room in our lives for the message of the angels and for the love of God through Christ our Lord." (Christmas message, 2011)

Doesn’t matter, beat the Jets any chance you get, fuck them.

Damnit. Ignore that.
I worked a long overnight shift yesterday. Head isn't there right now.
Whatever, fuck the Jets.
With two banged up defenses.. a frustrated jets defense that may send a message to their front office.. i actually expect a lot of scoring in this game...30-27 idk who wins
They both suck and are going nowhere. If Miami beats them it means nothing. If the Jets were 5-3 I would hope the Dolphins smash their dreams.
The whole "I don't care F the Jests!!!" means absolutely nothing right now.

So what has meaning then? Losing?

This whole season has no meaning.
Miami can win this game and STILL control getting the #1 pick. We can lose the second game versus the Jests and the game versus the Bengals and get that first pick. Anyone saying we'd drop to the #3 pick with a win today is ignoring the Dolphin schedule.
A terrible play call, terribly executed.

If we get the #1 pick and solve our QB problem, then this season has tons of meaning. Even without getting the #1 pick, if we draft well enough with all the high draft picks we got for key players traded to rebuild the team into something more than mediocre, then it definitely has meaning. Of course we might whiff on those draft picks (not that unlikely lol) and then this season is worthless!
Can't tell if this season is meaningful or not until we see how future draft picks turn out.
And btw.. if this "tanking" doesn't work, there's no question where the real fault lies: Ross. It means he can't find the right HC and GM.

If we win ANY game and have a better win% than any other team afterwards.. you can't go around thinking we "control our destiny" for the #1 pick even if it's mathematically possible because that means we're not tanking. So until Cinci starts winning, I'm not going to root for us to win hoping we can somehow make up for it afterwards because we probably won't!
It's so quiet... and empty in that stadium today. Wow.
Someone should maybe consider covering Crowder. :lol:

1972 Miami Dolphins-The ONLY undefeated team in NFL history!!!
Also anyone catch that stat just before the game started? In Adam Gase's 31 career losses, 25 of them have been a loss by double digits. Wow.

It will come down to Strength of Schedule as the tiebreaker for all the 1-15 teams. All I'm saying is that 0-16 isn't necessary to get the #1 pick if Miami wins today. They can tank AND not join the 0-16 teams in infamy.
Not that they are playing like they can win anything today. OL is not going to show up it seems.
A terrible play call, terribly executed.
:lol: someone may want to block Williams.

Making Darnold look HOF caliber today.
Actually, making what was a helpless Jests team look unstoppable.
A terrible play call, terribly executed.
Wilkins picks up his first career sack. About time!

1972 Miami Dolphins-The ONLY undefeated team in NFL history!!!
Wow, Williams was wiiiiiide open. TD Miami.

Nice. Good to see Preston's growth this season. One of the few bright spots.
A terrible play call, terribly executed.
Nice TD
Calling the same defense as they did with the Steelers. No reason Miami can't give up the TD on this third down.
A stop! Wow.
A terrible play call, terribly executed.
Terrible drop by Parker there.

1972 Miami Dolphins-The ONLY undefeated team in NFL history!!!
How do you drop that?
A terrible play call, terribly executed.
Nice grab
