It seems a lot of people are thinking we're going to handle the Jaguars pretty easily. They have not shown too much on the road this year but I'd expect them to be a pissed off team this Sunday after losing to Buffalo. Also, we have no Ronnie this Sunday and even though the running game probably wouldn't have been too big of a factor against the Jags tough run D, he's certainly better than Morris.

I hope Nick will have this team ready after the 10 days off. It could either help or hurt them. I'm a little afraid with this game.

If they win the turnover battle, Miami will win. Here's hoping to that! :)
 
This will certainly be the toughest game of the season so far. I'm not taking anything for granted. Just cheering for a W my friend.
 
This will be a tough game but there's a lot of things working in our favor here. I don't mind being confident about our chances of victory...so long as the players are disciplined in their approach.

Some people are saying this will be like Minnesota. I don't see that. This tracks much closer to me like the Kansas City game. A tough game, but they'll play winning football and they'll win. They didn't play winning football against the Vikes. They proved out many of the reasons I was afraid of the Vikes game on the field...just so happens JT decided to break the game open.

I think they've kind of had this day circled though since before the Lions game...because Buffalo loss notwithstanding they've been considering Jax as one of the better teams in the NFL. Whenever they've talked about their upcoming schedule it's always been "We still have to play some good teams, the Jags and Colts..."

I'm more worried that they'll take the right approach next week in facing New England.
 
I don't think anyone will overlook the Jags. I consider them as one of two toughest games remaining on our schedule.'

I beleive the Jags and Pats games are the toughest. The rest we can overcome.

By the way, the only reason I didn't include the Colts is because I have a feeling by the time we play them, we will only be playing their starters for 1 half.

I have a feeling if we overcome the Jags and Pats, we'll be ok.

Yup. I've had Week 17 circled as a Backup Bowl since before the season began. They're going to have to break out their Jim Sorgi films.
 
I personally have all the faith in the world that this team is capable of
shooting itself in the foot and suffering a bad loss to any team in this
league.

not trying to be a downer or or whatever.....It's simply my opinion.
I am not overlooking ANY team.

I know the Colts are the cream of the crop, and everyone keeps talking that by the time we play them they will probley be using there 2nd stringers. And that may be true. But too me it just seems thru the years the Dolphins always get up for the good-great running backs and usually we stop them. And as far as the Colts we usually beat them in the past seasons. I know everyone will say that this isn't the same colts we played in past seasons. But then those great running backs that can't seem to do to much running against our Defense just seem to be getting better. Except when they play against us. I believe it is the same with the good-great teams that we play every season. Miami usually gets up for good games against great teams. The Colts don't really worry me much. If we get that far without a loss then I know Miami will be up for that game no matter who is playing. The Pats, and the Jet games are the ones that I am worried about. We just seem to find ways to lose those games.

How so? This is not the toughest game of the season by far. Try KC, Chicago, and our upcoming New England game who we have already lost to once.
 
Whether we as fans overlook the Jags is immaterial. If the players overlook them, that's a problem and means the coaches aren't doing their job.

agreed, the Jags are a tough win even at home.
 
No win is easy but with the way our defense has played you should anticipate a good showing by our boys.

I see this game as a letdown though. I had predicted Jax 14-13 which I hope doesnt happen, but I know we wont make the playoffs

I think it's going to kind of be one of those things where the score seems closer than the game felt...like the KC game.

Toughest game of the season? The Jaguars were beaten by the Houston freaking Texans twice this year.
