I find it funny how profootballtalk and ESPN have the Dolphins ranked in the bottom 3 in power rankings yet Vegas has us second in the division for Super Bowl odds.
Who is usually more accurate? Vegas sportsbook or Mike Florio?

Not much there. They said Lazor was the team's biggest addition, is implementing Philly's O, Tannehill is the key and should be helped by him, and Philbin has to improve to 9-10 wins. Disappointing, as they did the Jets first with a good interview with Ryan. Didn't miss anything.

They did show Miami as 2nd in the division at 5 to 1, with the Pats at 1 to 3.

Being "2nd in the division" means nothing....it is basically the Pats....and everyone else...
The things people cling to around here...

Ehh, I guess what he is trying to say is, that we were an 8-8 team last year and it's absurd to rank us 31st since the team wasn't gutted or anything.
Good to know I'm at work and missed it then....

Its very likely that Pats win 10 w/ Miami and the other 2 winning 8 this season.
Agreed. Preseason rankings & power polls are to sports journalism what HSN is to Cable TV.

what are you talking about?
I was pointing out the difference in team projection between the media and Vegas oddsmakers. The media, as usual, seems to crap on the Fins while Vegas is giving us a little more respect. thats all I said.
Where did I say being second in the division is great? How am I clinging?

Its a shame how little coverage we get. People say win and they'll talk about you yet the Bucs, Jags, Bills, Raiders, Titans, and Rams(won less games than us) have all been covered for what seemed to be long segments while we haven't been on at all.
the segment i saw looked like espn taped a gopro to a fence post, someone even bumped into it at one point and it stayed skewed for 15-20 seconds before they stood it back up. i thought it was bunk coverage and i hate that they filmed on red zone stuff,,,, the crap footage they took will prolly end up in the pats hands some how,,, they should of told espn to bugger off with their "coverage"
