'Momentum' is overrated. Don't need momentum if you got a prepared football team, which I believe Dan Campbell has been doing these past two weeks.

Bull****. Momentum goes a long way to motivating players to play. Is it more important than game planing? No way. But playing with momentum goes a long way to keeping morale high.
 
Yes. And we got some going into Foxborough.
 
We definitely have momentum heading into Gillette. The honeymoon is not over with for the players and Dan, it's still happening. The plays we are running are fast and sure. Our defense is riding a high the past 2 weeks and it will continue on Thursday.
Momentum is real, because if you heard Dan in the post game locker room speech, he said these guys are still hungry, still starving and they want more.
 
During the press conf yesterday, Bokamper asked Tannehill if this was the best confidence the team had going into a game against NE. Ryan danced around the answer. I don't have the schedules, but it always seems NE plays us a week after a bad loss, or they stick the fork in us after a bad several weeks. Let's throw out last year's opener for a sec.....going into the game the way they are right now, has to be the best mentally and physically they ever have been in a long time. That hopefully will be a huge part of their success.

This is the game Miami has targeted all year. Whether they were supposed to be 6-0 rolling in or whatever preseason prediction there was. In the preseason, before Campbell, this is the game they wanted. This is why they built the team they have. If they lose, the season isn't over, but in some sense the building of the program fails again, because to be anywhere in the AFC, you have to beat NE. Miami must take advantage of a superior OL and DL. And take adv of the fact Revis and Cro are no longer there
 
You can really tell how much the players have bought in ... just listen to Shepards interview.
