Saw it on the ESPN crawl.

We need all the help we can get. The KC defense is known for not tackling well. Its nice to have their best LB out for the game!
 
This starting to look good for the Dolphins, first the Chiefs lose their best offensive lineman and now their best linebacker and tackler looks like Ronnie will have a big day.
 
Ronnie will have to have a big day if we're to have a chance to win. Hopefully the OL will hold up like last week and give him a chance to get it going.

Losing Willie Roaf hasn't really affected them.

Their line is good but i think that alot of what L.J. does makes the line look better. I hope the Dolphins can shut L.J. down on Sunday because that's the only way we are going to win.

Best way to shut down a runner like LJ, LT, Alexander or Tiki is to jump out to an early lead and force them to throw the ball, but I doubt we can do that

I hate to agree with you guys and it pains me to say it but this is good news for us.

I mean I hate to use an injury as leverage for a win. If we win people will be saying that it was because KC's best tackler was out for the game. But in this case you guys are right, we are a 2-6 football team and we can sure use all the help we can get....

Despite, we shouldn't take KC lightly just because their defensive leader is out.
 
The D had something to prove last week against the bears....You know they are thinking they need to keep crankin it up against KC, so people wont say it was the Bears beating themselves, instead of Miami beating them...Look for the D to shut LJ down, as they did to the Pats run game...

I get your drift, but rather see our ones against their ones. That's how we measure how good or bad we are.

I know how good our team is: we suck!

But we're getting better and I enjoy it when the Miami Dolphins win. I want a happy Sunday. Is that so wrong?

We sucked up to last week. Against the Bears we didn't. We may not suck again the rest of this year. We can't change who starts, but i would rather whup their best. It cuts down on a lot of chin music.

I want a happy Sunday. I could care less if LJ misses the flight.
 
Well I would rather have him play so we don't have to hear excuses from KC fans and the "experts" if we win.
