I just thought I'd throw this against the wall and see if it sticks. Maybe this season is going perfectly and we just don't realize it. Maybe this is the season of new beginnings. Confused? Let me explain.
In the recent past Miami's seasons have looked like this: Open up with a dominating home victory followed by several convincing wins (usually at home) through the first half of the season which makes everyone think Miami is an awesome team and one poised for a Super Bowl berth (Generally a 6-2 or 7-1 record about this time.) Mid season rolls around and there's a brief stumble, followed by a mediocre win or two, and a late season collapse in late November and on into December. This is followed up by either a blowout loss in the playoffs or, in the case of last season, no playoffs at all.
Now let's flash forward to this season. Miami stumbles out of the gates, at home, against an obviously inferior opponent. The wins don't come easily for the first half of the season and the home field advantage usually enjoyed by our favorite team has all but been eliminated. There have been a couple of atypical early season collapse games, at home, that looked quite a bit like a lot of the late season collapse games of yesteryear. Finally, most of our wins have come on the road this year, and the 'Fins have played much better on the road than at home.
So, with that said, since this is a year of brand new trends, perhaps that means that there will be no late season collapse, the 'Fins will win on the road in icy conditions, and they will head into the playoffs with a head of steam instead of limping in as in years past.
Granted, I'm totally reaching here and most of this is probably utter crap but, as I said in the beginning, I'm just throwing something against the wall to see if it sticks.
