I did post this because he picked Miami, but I have been watching this guy the past 2 years. He gives great analysis in every prediction video he makes, and it's awesome to hear people analyze a match up, and use homegrown OFFENSIVE players such as Charles Clay as play makers, and an advantage over the opposing team. Miami hasn't had offensive production from homegrown players that have been able to demand respect from the opposing players/coaches in a decade. We have traditionally went to free agency to get "impact" players due to lack of draft production. It's great to see Clay/Hartline giving the team respect on offense again.

Winning in the playoffs (let alone even getting there period) seems so foreign to me as a fan, not being able to witness football until post-Marino. Football season (at least my passionate side of it) always ended in December. I'm just happy to see these guys representing the team in a positive way, I've always envied that from other teams since the Fins have never been able to reach that point during my time as a fan. Fins up. ​:)

We have a good chance to beat the pats on Sunday. Honestly my major fear is having the refs get involved again like they always do when we play Tom Brady. I'm still speechless about the penalty on OV in the first match up where he was flagged for trying to swipe at a fumbled ball. New England gets every judgement call

What is the betting line on Tom Brady getting 1-3 PI calls setting them up 1st and goal in the 2nd half?
WE all know it will happen.

I agree, that is scary. I don't think most people realize that that call literally put 7 points on the board for NE and essentially iced the game. NE would've had to punt the ball back to Miami with only a 3 point difference in the game. Completely different ballgame if not for that call. Also, Miami has shown lately that when their D gives the O the ball back in those situations, our O usually responds. Our team has these bad chunks of time in these games, but that bad momentum often passes and our guys shake off the black cloud and our talent takes over again.
I think we would've won that Tampa game if we had gotten the ball back at the 5-minute mark (near mid-field, yet) but Wheeler's stupid play wrecked that.
We never got that chance vs NE. That particular bad fall flat-out iced the game for NE. Making that call and then having all the other refs stand by it was flat-out evil, IMO. That was just a sociopathic evil decision made by those refs in that situation. That call against Cleveland last week might have been even worse. The NFL is such a revenue giant for these media corporations that they'll never call a spade a spade, but the game is really struggling with credibility in the eyes of anyone who understands the nature of 'sport'.
If this Sunday's game is impacted by that kind of call, I will boycott the freakin' league. I'm not gonna fixate on it ahead of time, though.

Lol, Brady should have his own category of over/under in regards to the amount of bogus flags that will be thrown in his favor.

darn straight .Brady gets his share of calls from the refs.when they play at home he gets double the amount of calls

And that led to a TD. And what about the bogus pass interference call on 3rd and long that led to a TD and the BS def holding that was called on 3rd and long also.

That game was complete and utter BULL ****.

Yeah I almost forgot how bad those calls were last game. I have been saying the refs help certain teams for years, I think it is becoming more obvious recently. I hope it stops because it is ruining my love of the game. For every game that the refs decide in the league, Dolphins or not, a little bit of my love for the NFL is lost.

That call was a travesty and not a peep from the guys at ESPN or NFL network. In contrast, they kept harping about the alleged PI on Gronkowski in the Carolina game for 2 weeks!!

All were game changing (momentum changing) calls that allowed the Pats to make their "comeback". It looked like WWF was officiating.
