Win and im gonna be "all in" on this team. Winning at denver? Winning division? Legit super bowl contender? Im gonna believe thats all possible. Lose and its gonna be a struggle to make the playoffs and we'll be fighting for our playoff lives pretty much every week.
 
This is gonna be a tough game. This seems like the kind of team that gives us trouble, they have a great dline. If they can win I don't care how ugly on the road against a team coming off a bye,I'm a believer!!
 
I already drank the Kool-Aid. Beating Detroit will certainly help the Dolphin's play-off chances.

If Dolphins beat Buffalo, Jets (twice), Ravens, and Vikings they should still make the play-offs.
 
Buffalo thursday night is the swing game for me... we need to win that game if we want any chance to make the playofs
 
We're not going to win our remaining 8 games. If there's a game to drop, this would be it.

we have 2 extrememly tough road games after sunday, at denver and at new england. lets assume we lose both of those. thats 5 losses. if we lose detroit thats 6 losses. we have zero margin for error in the other games. if we beat detroit to get to 6-3 not only will we be right there in the afc east, we'll have a little margin for error down the stretch with the wild card. we'd only have to go 4-3 to get to 10 wins.
 
If we beat the Lions I think we'll be 11-5 (or possibly 12-4 if we can finally nut up and sweep the ****in Pats) but if we lose I still think we'll be 10-6 and have a good shot at the wild card.
 
We've only lost once on the road this year. As long as the New England game doesn't get moved to Prime Time, that game doesn't scare me.

IMO, the season will come down to the Ravens game.

Absolutely, this is the way I see it too. True it will kill our roll, but I would MUCH rather lose this game and win vs the bills than win this game and lose to the bills. The way I see it is we can lose to Denver the Pats and either the Lions or Viks. That would put us 10-6 and tie breakers against everyone but KC. The Broncos and pats win their divisions and we would almost definitely have one of the WCs.

Of course the Lions game is big, they all are, but it is one of two (viks) games that are the least important on our remaining schedule.

Thats not really true, unless you are talking about the viks game. All of the rest of the game would man that we would probably lose a tiebreaker. All of the rest of the games are not equal. Some we can lose, but the jets x2, bills, and ravens are games that we can't afford to lose or we would lose the tiebreaker.

NE in DEC in Boston doesn't scare you?? Can we put some money or vcash or something on it?? Do you think the pats are the same team we played the 1st game?? They aren't, we are not either but they REALLY aren't. NE is the best NE team in 5+ years. They are my superbowl pick. That will be the hardest game left on our schedule, especially after beating them 2 straight.
