Except of course that I don't hate Fiedler.


forgot the biggest difference between this game and those games. Griese is starting this one. Like I said earlier, if he plays anything like he did Monday night, this offense should roll over this weak defense......

This defense is not that weak. And while Griese may be able to score some points for us, if he does Wanny and Turner will just pull in the horns the way they did against the Chargers. The only way we score 30 points in a game is if it's a back-and-forth game where the lead keeps changing. Or if the defense scores 2 TDs.

My mistake. Wrong use of words. Mr. Hates-the-fact-that-Fiedler-is-starting. Is that more accurate?

I agree 30 points will be met this week plus, the Colts must wear their blue jersey in the blazing Florida sun also, I think Ricky will have a field day running against the 27th rank run defense of the Colts. This will be a better game to do play-action passes because they will stack the line trying to contain Ricky and then boom big play with a few long to intermediate passes and they will stop stacking and he will bust a few long ones. Plus, our OL will do their best to open up some holes for they know now they may lose their jobs if they don't get their act together. Ricky will get his but, if the OL does a better job he will get over a 130+ yards rushing period. So, I sticking to my prediction of 38 -16 DOLPHINS!!

Houston and New England also wore blue jerseys, and navy ones at that, darker than the Colts' royal blue. The only road team to lose at Miami this year, Buffalo, wore white. Not to rain on your parade or anything, though, because I do think the Dolphins will win. But I think that the D stepping it up and the O playing better would have a larger impact on the game.

I don't know. I think what I hate is the way our front office has not tried to upgrade the QB position in the last two offseasons. I admire Fiedler...he's got guts and he plays his heart out. We could definitely do worse than Fiedler, and I think he could start for quite a few teams. My only beef with him has ever been that he is not a top-tier QB and IMHO the starting QB job for the Dolphins is a high-prestige job that should be given to someone who is a top-tier QB. The Fins are not the Cards or the Falcons or the Bengals, teams that seldom sniff the playoffs. They aren't a perennial loser. They are a storied team with a great history and a great record and they deserve better.
Griese may not be it either...we'll have to see.

Rik, I think that was an excellent way of putting it. I couldn't agree more.

 

[Phinz1972]

My outlook on this game goes like this:

Seeing how the Phins have yet to secure a W this season with going out and still playing like hell in the 2nd half, seeing how the Colts came back against the Bucs, I see Wanny and the rest of Phin staff doing a lot of work with securing the W in the 2nd half due to our poor performace in the 2nd half and the Colts great work in the 2nd half this season.

Miami- 39
Colts- 24

Miami- 28
Indy- 20


Marvin Harrison catches 6 passes and fumbles 8 times

come on relax man, we have griese starting now, watch out for some nice tight , accurate spirals that hit the receivers in stride for sam YAC, this week we will come pretty close to 30 points i guess.....28-17 Dolphins

 

[CRAZYDOLFAN305]

Now, that we have a real QB for Norv's system we will finally hit the 30 points mark.

Dolphins 35
Colts 13..
