On NFL Live they have been doing all the divisions starting last week....yesterday Sept 4th they were suppose to do the AFC East well there was no NFL Live on at 4pm as usual ---they had it on at 12:40 am this morning, now i TIVO'ED it but since the Mia Hur --- FSU GAME ran late it didn't go on untile 40 mins after it was suppose to needless to say i tivo'd baseball tonite .....MORE LOVE BY ESPN FOR THE FINS....did anyone happen to catch it?
 
Yup. They covered it on the 12:40pm NFL Live today.

By the time they covered Big Ben, Foley, Favre, and Branch, they didn't spend a lot of time on it.

Fact or Fiction: (Sean Salisbury answering)
Adam Vinatieri will be Patriots most significant offseason loss: "FACT". Huge loss. Bad give away from the Pats and big pick-up by Colts.
Daunte Culpepper will lead Dolphins to playoffs: "FACT" all the way. Daunte will be more himself this year than last year. Looks great - trimmed down. Saban's buying into it (whatever that means) - loves Mularkey as the OC. Culpepper is a freak of nature when it comes to skill.
Chad Pennington will last the season as Jets starting QB: "FICTION". This is not a good football team. They are not explosive down the field. They are a "Punch and Judy" offense that plays horizontal football... Eventually Kellen Cleamons will be the starter.
J.P. Losman will finally prove he's the "answer" for Bills: "FICTION". I don't know that there's any QB on this team that can prove he's the answer.
... This is a team up front that can't dominate anybody...

Players to watch in the AFC East:
Start with Daunte Culpepper: #1 is the injury - but # 2 is the team was 9-7 with a couple of different QBs last year - Culpepper fixes that this year.
Ronnie Brown - has never shouldered the load - if he can tote it 200- 250 times not only are the dolphins a playoff team but they can close the gap on the Pats.
Tom Brady - Thinks he'll be the MVP of the league this year - had his best year last year - and that's without a whole lot of receivers. This team is going to be right there at the end, and Brady is going to be right there leading them.

Key Games this season:
Jets: Week 2 vs Patriots
Bills: Week 5 at Bears
Patriots: Week 9 vs Colts (meet in reg season for 4th consecutive year)
Dolphins: Week 11 vs Vikings

Who wins the AFC East:
Gotta be the Patriots - people say no receivers but they use the TE extremely well - expect more out of Dillion - whenever you have Brady and Billichik together - aging at certain positions but fully expect them to still win this.

Because Dick Jauron heads to Chicago - the team that last employed him
 
With the way the guys on ESPN treat the AFC East and the Patriots you wouldn't even know the Dolphins were IN the AFC East. Even when the Dolphins win 9 games and the Patriots win 11 it's like the Phins dont exist. I've heard about Dolphin media biased but come on, the way i've heard some people on ESPN talk about the Dolphins is that they're "an up and coming team". As if to say they won 5 games last year and would reach only 500. this year. The Dolphins are a legitimate playoff threat, but you wont hear that from Salisbury!

Salisbury always tries to cover his A$$ by saying one thing, and then sugar coat on oxymoron. Salisbury sucks:tantrum:

Let me eloborat:
When the dolphins aquired Culpepper, he was the very one saying that Daunte wouldn't play until mid october.Then during mini-camp John Clayton reported that culpeppers recovery from triple ligament knee surgery was a "miracle". After that report salisbury was suddenly a dolphins bandwagoneer saying that if culpepper can come back and play week one against the steelers and play like his former self (2004 season), which has come to pass, that the dolphins would definately pass the pariots in the AFC east. Now when all the analysts are asked to predict who will win the our division they all predict the New England Patriots except for John Clayton, who did in fact predict Miami to beat the patriots in the east. As far as I'm concerned John Clayton is the only analyst who knows what he is talking about because he uses facts to make predictions. All the other guys don't take Claytons predictions seriously because he never played a single down of football in the NFL. the NFL Live crew sucks:tantrum::refuse:

Actually, he said:

Ronnie Brown - has never shouldered the load - if he can tote it 200- 250 times not only are the dolphins a playoff team but they can close the gap on the Pats.

At 2Am (or something like that) sometime in the last couple of nights. KennyStang has uploaded it to youtube in 3 parts though if you want to catch it...
 
LOL too bad Sean Salbury missed Dieon Branch sitting out the first 10 games in a legal fight over 'mo money' I think that's more important than Vinny.

You make a good point about Branch, but I have been equaly bashing the patriots over their losses in total. I mean there is no way a team like they had can afford lose McGinnest, Branch, Vinatieri, Givens, and Law. They werent spectacular by any means last year, and those key names along with a Bruischi who missed the entire pre-season due to a broken wrist at practice & an entirely new LB core & Secondary then they used last year.

This team was known for getting big play out of young no-names. However anytime that a team is relying on no-name guys to have big years, there is just no way you can hold them in the same light as when they won 3 Super Bowls.

Aparently, some commentators at ESPN think the Pats will win the Super Bowl with anyone. THough I also remember last year when some ESPN guys "guranteed" that Miami would finish dead last. How'd that prediction turn out for ole Salsbury?
