Yeah we lost last night, its in the past now, no point in dwelling on it. Lets go ahead and look towards the furture for just a minute. Next week we play the Bills, a VERY winnable game. We then follow that up with Tennessee, Houston, NE, NYJ, and GreenBay. We have 6 VERY winnable games coming up on our schedule. We need to get at least 5 of the six game.

I look at it this way, we game Pitt a run for their money last night. If what a lot of you are saying is true, that Ronnie sucked, the O-Line sucked, the Secondary sucked, Culpepper sucked, the play calling sucked, and we still game them a pretty good game. I would say we have a lot to be optomistic about. I mean all those people played a bad game and we were still right there. It should be fun to see these guys play a good game if you want to say that they "sucked" last night.

We need to win the next 5 or 6 and we'll be ok. We have a very good chance of going 10-6 at least.
 
Which will all be pointless in the end until we can win the big games against the top teams.
 
all the afc East teams have easy schedules.

you even played the steelers without big ben, and you get to play the colts the final game of the year when they will probubly be playing all the backups.

while the bills open the season with away games agenst division rivals...

and i wouldnt over look any divisional rivalry games, teams always play better in those games.
 
I'm trying to answer to your post but the picture of Jessica Alba won't let me concentrate!
On a serious note every game is winnable is a matter we just need to stop shooting ourselfs on the foot

Because we lost 1 game to the defending Superbowl Champs, we obviously are going to lose every big game the rest of the year right? :rolleyes:
 
While I agree with you, Sham, I have to say that last night was really our chance to make a big statement, and we had all the weapons in place to do just that. I expected our running game to look lax, considering how our o-line has been doing and the front 7 they were up against, but even still, this was our chance to prove that we ARE competitors and not just dreamers. Even with the sloppy play we had, we were outplaying them up until that meltdown in the last 5 minutes. So basically all I see is us losing a game that we should have won (and isn't THAT the Dolphins Lament of the decade!). It's not the end of the world, and it's not the end of the season. I know this.

But the good teams win the games they should.
 
Geeeeesh guys, get it out of your system and move on. We played like hell and actually almost pulled it off. We'll get it together and be very dangerous. It's a long season guys. We WILL be there at the end. WE WILL.

I can definitely see the Dolphins being 5-2 after that stretch(the other loss coming to NE of course).

I agree that we had a chance last night and didn't make the most of it. Something that is worth looking at. Last year 4 of the 5 losses of Pitt was NE, Cinncy, Jax, and the Colts. They lost to about every good team that they played and we all know what they did. We just have to take every game for what it is. 1/16th of the puzzle, no more and no less.
 
Schedule is very much in our favor, we need some time for our OL and secondary to gel, for DC to get comfy and this loss may be a blessing in disguise. Shakes the tree a little, shows Saban, Capers & MUlarky what they need to work on. I too see us being 5-2 soon, also expect us to lose to the Pats in their house. But Saban & co. will get this team together and in the end we WILL make the payoffs, and isn't THAt what it's all about?

Hate to agree with a Bills fan, but he's right. I def wouldn't over look NE and even Buff to an extent.

I feel sick now
