QB- Okay, not much of a contest. Brady is playing as good as anyone and Fiedler is not in the same league.
Advantage: PATS
RB- A little tighter. Ricky Williams is averaging 3.4 ypc, hardly good numbers, but Faulk, Cloud, and Smith combine to close the gap plus Faulk is a better reciever than ricky out of the backfield. This one is close but it's the pats by a hair.
Advantage: PATS
FB- Pass and Konrad is a toss up, Konrad has been a dissapointment for most of his career, and Pass is just not used that much. Pats by default because Konrad is more essential to the phins.
WR- This one is abig disparity. Brown, Branch, Givens overshadow Chambers.
Advantage: PATS
Advantage: PATS
TE- Randy McMichael faded last year and has begun his fade this year. Daniel Graham on the other hand is coming on strong and will be a top 5 tight end by year's end. McMichael just does not have Daniel Graham's upside.
Advantage: PATS
OL- Woody and Lyght would be the two best dolphin linemen so this is an obvious one. The phins line has been horrid this year.
Advantage: PATS
DL- Seymour is head and shoulders above all, even jason Taylor. Ogunleye takes advantage of wasted double teams on the other side. Chester and Bowens just do not compare to the group of Washington, Klecko, and Pleasant on pass rush situations.
Advantage: PATS
LB- So it's Zach and Junior and nothing else versus a guy that is virtually just as good as Zach in Bruschi and Phifer and Vrabel that collectively play better than Junior.
Advantage: PATS
DB- First of all, we can all agree that Ty Law is better than Surtain or Madison. Madison is having his second down year in a row and Poole is playing pro bowl ball. Harrison is just better than Knight, and Wilson makes more plays than Marion. Pats by a hair.
Advantage: PATS
ST: Bethel Johnson is a great return man, the dolphins have none. Vinieteri is a clutch kicker, mare is not. The phins have an advantage in their punter turk though.
Advantage: PATS
Coaching: Bellichick is a master at his craft and Wanndstadt is on the verge of being fired.
Advantage: PATS
Sorry guys but I don't see how this game will be close. It could be but I see the final score at 31 - 9.
Let's hope for a good game though.
I am really bored right now and since no one else wants to waste their time disputing him I will.
QB: Jay played very well last year but I will give you that.
RB: LOL! Come on. We are way better than you at RB. Faulk? Cloud? Smith? Who gives a ****! Minor is also a good backup. We win this one easily.
WR: Chambers is better than any of your WRs. You guys have had a lot of injuries at the position lately. If Troy Brown plays, you guys have a slight advtange, if he doesn't, then we are better. McKnight is a fast receiver who has had some big plays this year for us.
OL: Our Offensive Line, I won't get into that.
DL: We are way better than you guys here. Jason Taylor and Adewale Ogunleye are better than your ends, and we have two very good DTs in Tim Bowens and Larry Chester. Jeff Zgonina is also a very good backup DT. We have a lot of depth at DE in guys like Burnett, Jay Williams, etc.
LB: Again, we own you here. Bruschi as good as Zach? :rofl:
Junior Seau and Thomas are both better than any of your LBs. Greenwood is having a good year as well. We are better than you at LB.
DB: Our corners, Madison and Surtain, are better than your corners. Ty Law is good but our tandem is better. Terrell Buckley is also having an excellent season as a nickel back. Our safeties are better than yours as well. Marion and Knight own Harrison and Wilson. We are way better at DB.
ST: I agree with you here.
Coaching: I'll take your coaches over ours as well. I also agree with you.
The Dolphins are a more talented team than the Patriots, but you guys have better coaches and the refs are always on your side. It should be a close game, but the Dolphins have more to play for at this point and will be rested better, and we will win this game.
