Final Score: Dolphins v Patriots

30 Dolphins 10 Pats
 
31- 27 Patriots
Tough spot road game on a short week against the best team in the league.

Will need to respond and beat Buffalo the following week.
 
If Miami doesn't hit Brady it is going to be a struggle. They have to harass Brady, the Jets were aided by a case of the drops, Brady had at least 7 balls dropped and that isn't going to happen again this week.

This game rests squarely on the defensive line and moving Brady off his spot. Do that and that prediction of 28-21 Miami isn't far off. Don't do that and 34 -21 Pats is very real.
 
If we don't score at least 30 I don't see how we realistically win this. I can't in good conscience expect a throttling (even though i am STILL so high on adrenaline from yesterday) I do see us being able to pin our ears back and put up one hell of a fight.
I'm still cautiously optimistic, but I am smart enough to know this is not going to be easy.

30-27 Miami
 
I would so love to think the Dolphins have a shot here, but I can't imagine a scenario that, no matter how well we play otherwise, that Brady and Gronk wont shred our defense...

Pats-33 Dolphins-20
 
What I hate is our weaknesses kind of play into their strengths. We have LB's who can't cover, they love short passes to TE's and RB's. Their best WR is in the slot, I don't think Brent Grimes ever shadows the slot meaning Edelman gets a McCain one being a rookie. The line better eat or Brady will pick us apart. Offense needs a big game here. The Pats are going to score no matter who they play our offense needs to match them. Also we need to play like we need to score, real aggressive. We can't try to play keep away because if we fail we'll be down early. Keep the balanced aggressive attack we've seen over the last 2 weeks. We need to punch NE in the mouth and not be afraid. I'll be at the game, if we win I'll probably get punched in the mouth too :).
 
I think fins outplay the pats for three quarters and make it close - Fins screw the pooch and loose by 3 with just seconds left in the game and I break the remote and have to spend a week in the dog house...

20 - 17 to the ****shot Cheaters...
