I'd just like to know why some people feel that because we squeaked by a bad team that we aren't a good solid football team. Everyone knows that great teams can be beaten by subpar teams on any given Sunday. Take a few years back when we handed New England an embarrasing loss 21-0 when they were supposedly the 2nd coming of the 72 Miami Dolphins. They went on to have a pretty successful season after that if memory serves me correctly. We all know that in this league any team can be dangerous and pull off "upset of the year". Does that mean that this team is on the verge of imploding? Not at all. Look at the Panthers who just barely took care of the lowly 2-7 Raiders. Does that mean that they aren't a good team? Absolutely not. We are going to have close games with teams that we should handle easily, and win some games by margins that we probably shouldn't. That's just the nature of the NFL. There could be a zillion reasons why we didn't add to the score. Maybe Sparano wanted to play conservative football and maintain a lead, there's no telling since we're not on the sidelines. Let's support our team week in and week out regardless if we win by 1 point or 40. A win is a win, and we have alot to be proud of right now! GO FINS!!
 
I agree 100% enough with the talks of an ugly win, a win is a win and ill take it....we're relatively new to this kind of success so its unrealistic that we are just going to stomp on every team that we are expected to beat. This would have been a real harsh loss taking us a step back, but the defense showed character today holding on at the end of the game when it was needed most. This is the NFL not college football, winning by 1 or winning by 30, it doesnt matter!
 
A 2 point win is alot better than an Olindo Mare game winning field goal by the Seaquacks. OMG that would've sucked!
 
i agree. And while some of the earlier games we won we had to play almost perfect, this shows that we might beable to overcome a few mistakes. It was def. not a perfect game and we were still able to pull it off, thats a plus.
 
A win is a win. After last year, I'll take as many wins as we can get. That being said, I do agree with the sentiment that when you play bad teams you have to be able to step on their throats and go for the kill early. Elite teams know how to do that.
 
Seriously. How the hell can a true Dolphins fan not be happy with a win after last year? A win is a win. If we squeak out a win in the Super Bowl will people be saying "We won, but we can't be happy about it. Blah blah blah."?
