At this point in the season, would you take a do or die game week 17 against the jets? win and we're in, lose and we go home.At this point i think i would, i know on paper our schedule looks easy, and if we win the games we're supposed to win we'd most likely have a playoff spot locked up going into that game. But we know from the last couple weeks the san fran and kansas city games arent gimmes, and the 3 division games are all gonna be dogfights. Still a looooooong way to go, too many things can go wrong, sign up me right now for still controlling our own destiny with a do or die game in week 17I actually think thats gonna happen, we gonna win the next 2 then split the next 4, putting us at 9-6 going into the jet game with a playoff berth on the line, oh baby!
 
Still so much football to be played I drive myself crazy thinking of all the scenarios. It's just a bit too early to think about them because there are too many possibilities. Two more weeks and we'll have a much clearer picture I think.

That being said, yeah right now I'd take a week17 do-or-die for sure. Even though we have some "easier" opponents coming up, 5 out of 7 seems like a lot to ask for. But hey, that's our magic number, right? Win 5 more and we're in?
 
I'll be at that December 28th game in the swamp in NJ in full Dolphin gear.

I have a feeling that will be a big game for the division.

Saw a stat this morning - The Dolphins have won once in the last 15 years playing @ NYJ in December. Once?
 
As far as I am concerned the last game is a do-or-die game. We have to win at least 1 against the dam Jets for this to be a successful season.
 
I hope we kick the Jesters ***** wether it gets us into the postseason or not.

But how many times have we played in those 15 years in December? 5, 6 at the most?
And we won once, so its not as overwhelming as it seems
