Dolphins down the stretch

[phinfanNY08]

Sitting at 2-2 and with a tight AFC East battle, how do you think the dolphins will fare down the stretch with their tough schedule (NE, KC, OAK, SD, etc). It is to this point the toughest schedule down the stretch? Playoff possibility?

I say the opportunity is there, Miami has been in every game this year, win or loss. Being a die hard fan, i cannot see them make the playoffs as much as i really want them to. I do however seeing vast improvement on offense and RW and RB being very efficient in the same backfield.

Oakland is beatable, you've got the Titans, Browns, Bills and Jets who i think we could beat. That's five wins right there, maybe they upset KC or New England or something, you might have yourself an 8-9 win teams. Probably no playoffs for the Phins but that exceeds my expecations and shows one hell of a coaching job from Nick Saban to turn an abyssmal 4-12 into a possible over 500. record and a bright future.......

Here is what I expect from Miami the rest of the season after the 2-2 start:

@ Tampa Bay - Win
vs. Kansas City - Loss (Miami had trouble containing their offense in 2002)
@ New Orleans - Win
vs. Atlanta - Loss (Winable, but their running game and strong defense may be too much to handle - My NFC Super Bowl Team)
vs. New England - Win
@ Cleveland - Win
@ Oakland - Win (We own Oakland since 1997 = 5-1 record, lost in 2000 playoffs)
vs. Buffalo Bills - Win
@ San Diego - Loss
vs. NY Jets - Win
vs. Tennessee - Win
@ New England - Loss

Season record: 10-6

We were 2-2 for the first quarter of the season, I agree with you we will most likely go 2-2 for the 2nd quarter and sit at 4-4 for the half way point.

3rd quarter of the season I think we could be 3-1 putting us at 7-5. Last 4 I dont have great feel for cause of weather and health of teams just yet. Its too far away for me to sense the direction of this team.

But I think we can put ourselves in great positon to finish no less than 9 Wins...and 10 would be within reach.

We must stop the stupid penalties and turnovers, but with Ricky back and Ronnie getting better each week, I totally agree that we can go 10-6. Due the injuries the AFC east is as week as it has been in a while. I really believe we have a shot to win the division.

At 2-2 they could have been 4-0 or 0-4. personally I think they have done better in their first four games than I could have ever expected, with all the changes to staff and players alike. yes i can see them making the playoffs, but only if they eliminate the mistakes made early in the season. Yes they could have won all four games, but they could have lost all four games too. I dont see RW coming back as a major factor as the ruushing game has been ok anyhows. What I do think though is , that the overall performance will improve as each game goes by. at home we will be diffucult to beat so I see being on the road as where we need to improve. We get that right and we could well make the playoffs :)
