Filling out the picks for a football pool and I'm fighting being a fan.

It is public.

I just don't feel confident. I WANT us to win, but our track record versus NE is not so hot.

I picked the Dolphins in my pools like I've done every single game for the past 20 years.

I took Miami because I feel the heat and humidity at a 1pm start time for a change is going to make a huge difference. You can condition all you want but if you aren't used to it, it will hit you like an open oven at 400 degrees.
It's about time that Ross started putting games back at 1 early in the year. That is our weather advantage just like the cold and snow is to a northern team later in the year.
I expect Revis to have a big impact on this game though.xphinfanx likes this. -

Ok...I'll be the one who says the obvious...I'm a homer...I voted Miami...even tho the odds are not good, even if Tanny plays well, the OL is 'fixed' and everything goes right, the pasties simply have a better team right now...but I'll still go Miami and gloat about it if we do beat them....

Regardless, it will come down to the last few drives, that's the only fact I have faith in.

Of course I want Miami to win, just like I have in every game they have played since 1967.
If I were betting money on this game though...Tom Brady 148 wins and 43 losses, career W-L record. 'Nuff said.xphinfanx likes this. -

I am so without a doubt....SHOUT IT OUT....a Dolphins homer its not even funny.
The fact Ive seen teams have amazing seasons...even when they appeared to suck to high heavens during the offseason...means I will always believe our team is gonna win.
But...
You know one thing about this team. I LIKE THEM. These are guys I really feel like I can root for. I love Branden Alberts attitude...dude believes in his heart nobody is gonna touch Ryan Tannehill. Jawauan James has that same kind of attitude as a rookie. Our defense finally...FINALLY has a personality...love what Delhas and Finnegan are bringing. How can you not root for Grimesy....and Im seriously lovin me some Miko...Id pay what ever to sit next to her at a Phins game...Brent sure got lucky with her. Jarvis Landry...when his career is done I think we might look back in awe like we do with Clayton and Duper. Big Play Clay....dude is a gamer.
I think the personality of this team is different then we have had before and THATS the biggest reason I think we turn the corner this season.
I really want this team to do well....more so then any other year..because I want to root for this team for many years to come.xphinfanx, Rocky Raccoon, Bumrush and 1 other person like this. -

115F is enough to drain any opponent in Miami the 1st game of the season. Very happy to see it's N.E.
Was getting tired of them coming here in mid Oct. and being on MNF when it's somewhat cooler and no sun.
All I can envision is Delmas creeping up to the LOS, pulling out his mouth piece and blinding Brady with that gold grill of his.
I feel we win this one.....xphinfanx likes this. -
The camaraderie and togetherness appears to be really strong as well. -

Another cool thing...if we can beat the Patriots..
We will be going up to Buffalo with one HELL of a chip on our shoulder.
