DAVIE — To remain in the playoff hunt until the last day of the season,
the Dolphins on Sunday must beat the one team they never have
defeated: the Houston Texans.

A victory over the Texans — who hold a 4-0 lead in the series that
began in 2003 — won't guarantee the Dolphins anything. But it would
keep them alive for a wild-card berth and, should New England lose
to Jacksonville on Sunday, keep them in the AFC East race, too.

Five keys to beating Houston

Chad Henne must limit late-game mistakes:
Defense must contain receiver Andre Johnson:
Special teams have to keep up good work on coverage:
Henning has to have a good day calling plays:
Miami has to forget the Houston hex:

Going 0-5 against one team is pathetic if we lose. It's time to get the win.

Thankfully if Schaub tries that draw **** again, Starks will plant his *** into the turf.

Hopefully we can do this-

we need some big plays against these ****ers . . . . they will get points, we are gonna have to dial up a good 30+ points today to get this win.

The key is not to turnover the ball. Whatever team turns-over the ball first will lose this game.

I mean, the Titans turned over the ball first last week and we lost. I don't trust that philosophy. We just need to take advantage of scoring opportunities.

It is ridiculous that an expansion team, seven years /eight seasons old, is undefeated vs. us. They had our number and it needs to end today!! We need to put pressure on Schaub and never let up. Force him to beat the blitz and do our best vs. Johnson.

Hopefully we can do it with just pass rush. We open the underneath too much when blitzing.
