It's funny lol, it actually makes me laugh out loud. Okay guys, let's recap.

Preseason: We're finally getting this thing turned around. Tony Sparano looks to be a great coach. Ricky Williams for MVP, Chad Pennington will make us a much better team. I can see us going 9-7

Week one: The Dolphins play the Jets very tough and come up roughly 20 yards short of a win against the improved Jets. Plenty of posters are saying we are very improved, going to be a hell of alot better than last years 1-15 team. Defense looks better, Chad Pennington is the best QB we had since Marino and all is well in the world. We'll get at in next week and beat the Cardinals soundly. Playoffs isn't a reach.

Week two: Pretty much everyone has high expectations, we think we have a good chance to go into Arizona and pull out a W. Things obviously don't go as planned, we gets stomped and that's putting it nicely. Running game is horrible once again, Secondary looks god awful and Pennington shouldn't be our QB. We suck. We wouldn't be surprised if we only win one game again this year.

What is it, are we much improved or garbage. Just wanted to vent a little. Stand with your position for christs sake - have some pride!
 
Eh, I predicted 6-10 this year but from the looks of it so far, I guess my expectations was too high.
 
We're garbage and untill we show something, we aren't improved either.

Atleast last year when Ronnie Brown was healthy and getting the bulk of the touches/carries, our offense looked like a real offense, you know, the ones that scores touchdowns.
 
i predicted 7-9 and i stand buy it. We will(HOPEFULLY!) beat baltimore, oakland, KC, ST Louis, San Fran, Houston, and one of our division rivals once.

Agree completely. That's a complete recap of my posts this season
 
At 0-2, and being considered an NFL joke right now, I've written this season off as yet another year filled with more painful growing / learning experiences. The only thing I care to see for the remainder of the 2008 season, is some steady / promising improvement before heading into next year. Nothing more....

PHINZ RULE!!!
 
Up and down? When the hell are we ever up? More like Down and Further Down.

Do you guys remember in 2006 when we beat New England 21-0 and then turned around the next week and lost at Buffalo 21-0 also?

Well, the New England win was our SECOND-MOST RECENT victory TO DATE!

The Buffalo loss began what is now a 1-20 record since the latter 2006 season.

Yeah, we're "UP" and down. :rolleyes:
 
Okay, so I have been depressed the past few days.

Bt I got to thinking.

Even after the Jets game. I was like wow, we will do decent this year. But then the Cardinals come out and do that to us. And the sky falls. But then I think to myself. Bad day? Are the Cardinals just that good. I mean, with Larry, Fitzs, Warner and James, their offense should be top tier. We'll have to wait and see if we are just THAT bad, or if they are just THAT good.

At first, I had no hope for the game this week in NE. But, say we have a good day. We did come within 20 yards of beating the Jets. And it was a hell of a game between the Pats and Jets last week. So I am not completely counting us out.

And say we do win. Everything is fine again. We are a bi-polar bunch, we are. But I guess that's what happens after what we've been through the last few years. No consitancy from the team = no consistancy from the fans. Still I do have some hope for this weekend.
 
well,i think we all know that we're pretty much an expansion team for the most part,it's gonna be a step by step by step rebuilding process,we have to be patient and allow for this rebuilding to take root&grow,it's not gonna be an overnight thing...JMO

Is Pennington as familiar with the Pats as he was with the Jets after qbing them for 8 years? Best chance for a win.
