The Drum Roll:
Well another great Dolphins win and yet another day at the LSB. Its going to be such a nice day to be able to watch the game on my own 51” HD TV again.. do hear me CBS?? …sigh.

Well no sooner than I sat in my seat I see Ted Ginn taking it home for a touchdown. What a way to start a game even though it was called back. Just one request Ginn. Please let me get a few Sipps of my drink down before you do that, I just about spilled it on myself…What is that now, 4 TD called back since last year. Poor guy. I think Ted has turned it up that last few games. He seems to be playing with much more purpose now. I guess Sparano threatened to trade him to Detroit.

Ricky Had a great game as well. It was so nice to see him get into the open and turn those after burners on. Brings back good memories.

Props have to go out to the secondary, this unit was our projected weak spot and the last few games have been showing that these guys can make the plays they need to make. Its nice to start seeing that kind of consistancy back there again.


Later and GO FINS!!!!!

Comment:The Dolphins escaped with a 21-19 victory over the Seahawks in their first of three straight home games. Dolphins have won three in a row for first time since 2006. (TG)

Comment: They get Oakland at home, a game they should win, which will set up a huge division game in two weeks with the Patriots. Is that possible?.

Comment:
All the TDs Sunday came on decent-sized drives, Chad Pennington in control at all times. I know it's not really fair, but I guess I'm as curious as the next fan to see how Pennington vs. Favre spins out for the rest of the season.

Comment:
Sure, the Dolphins had to resort to gimmicks to score its three touchdowns in beating Seattle last week. But Miami cleared a pivotal hurdle in returning to the postseason. They have a great chance to ride their easy schedule to January -- so there is some reward for going 1-15, right? Getting that last-place schedule the next year. THIS WEEK: vs. Raiders (2-7)

Comment:Dolphins move into playoff position with weak schedule remaining. Host cross-country traveling Raiders on Sunday.

Comment: I think my favorite quote of the year comes from Courtney Bryan, a Dolphins safety who was cut after training camp but has now been re-signed. Bryan said he took a job at Arby's while waiting to get another NFL job: "It's not like I was broke," Bryan told the South Florida Sun-Sentinel. "I was just bored. I couldn't go to the movies every day. I like to work. I have to do something with my time." I hear you, Coutrney.

Comment: Let me get this straight: a team that was one overtime period away from being 0-16 last year is suddenly a double-digit home favorite? I don't care if it is the Raiders and if it is the West Coast-to-East Coast travel, something just isn't right about that.

What bothers me is that in most of these power rankings the Bills are ahead of the Phins

The media can't let the Bills go. But once we are 6-4 and on a 4 game winning streak, it will be hard to ignore us.

Can next Sundays game be flexed?

This guy is obviously a major D-bag and doesnt seem to understand that the team this year is more than 50% gutted from last years team, has a completely new culture, and attitude. The parity in the NFL is so great, why cant a team that was horrible last year turn it around and be a 10pt favorite at home on a hot streak to one of the worst teams this year. Man, and this guy gets paid to write about sports??

That might be one of the funniest things I've read in awhile. Nice find.

Oh and WZ, great avatar. One of my favorite movies of all time.
 
I guess the one that bugs me the most is the USA Today - how the hell do we WIN a game and drop 3 spots?

What a joke.
 
thanks.

something I noticed......looks like the USA today rankings are provided by Covers.com....so by providing both, you are skewing your average a little bit.

it cant be flexed, the flex must be decided within 12 days before the game at latest, and they have decided to keep the colts at chargers.

I think the next guy who gets penalized on a Phin's huge kickoff return should have to run wind sprints for 90 minutes non stop....and then if it happens again, cut him from the team. Our special teams are going to cost us a big game one of these days. :shakeno:
