I don't think we're near as big of a dog as most seem to think, nor we were as big of a favorite as most seem to think we should have been over the Bills. Bills, Pats and now the Packers I had as coin flips before the season and I stand by that. A coin flip is not great for a home team however, the Seahawks would have to be about a 90% favorite on average at home, maybe even against elite teams. Nor does a coin flip mean it'll be a competitive game necessarily, it simply means that if we played them 10 times in this situation we'd probably win 5 of them.

Vegas has us at ~42% fwiw.

It's not so much where Vegas has us, but how we match up in our ability to pass and defend the pass. We haven't been very good (the game vs the Raiders makes our numbers look a lot better honestly) in either facet of the game, whereas the Packers have excelled in both.
 
Statement game or big game, call it what you may, when the Dolphins play a big game under Joe Philbin they have a tendency to come out flat and look unprepared. I see this as a big game and don't trust Philbin to have the team ready. Packers will win fairly easily.
 
I say 6 hrs from now Miami will be 2-3 Miami can't hang for long with a quality football team like GB, plus a long tenured coach like McCarthy not to mention the best QB in the league. Hello 2-3 but of course I hope I'm wrong.

If you could run this scenario out over 100 times do you not think we'd win any of the 100? I think if Tannehill plays well we're massive favorites over every team in the league and we're even favorites over elite teams like the Broncos or Seahawks in our stadium, and this is evidenced by the fact that when he has played well we have a perfect record at SunLife and a near perfect record overall at 13-1. The problem is he doesn't play well often enough.

Of course we'd win some of the 100. Heck, if you matched the Raiders up against the Broncos 100 times, I think the Raiders would win one. Maybe two. :lol:

But this is a case where I feel like Miami needs to have a strong first half, and historically we just haven't had that under Joe/Ryan.
