Predictions for the game?

I've only had the pleasure, or maybe it was displeasure, of seeing two fins games this preaseason. The first game against Chicago and the last game against Atlanta. I haven't seen anything to lead me to believe that we will improve on last year's record. If I missed anything substantial in the three middle games someone please let me know. I sincerely hope that I'm wrong but I don't see us beating Denver or very many other teams this season. :cry:

Thanks for the pick-me-up! I will try to dine on optimism henceforth and forever more.

So you pick the two most meaningless preseason games to come to this conclusion?
 
I can't wait to see. I am not going to make a prediction but I liked what I saw Offensively when we game planned against the Bucs. The D has played well and there were a lot of plays to be had against the Bucs. We will see, GO FINS.

Man, I've been a Dolphin fan all of my life. I think the second set of words I spoke after "mama" was "Don Schula". I've seen Miami go from a run-it-down-your-throat-and-pass-when-only-absolutely-necessary team, with a dominant defense. Then we changed into a "pass-happy" dominant offense, with no defense, and back again to a a run-it-down-your-throat-and-pass-when-only-absolutely-necessary team, with a dominant defense. But never, and I mean never have I seen our team look this bad. I've also never seen us play in "meaningless" games, preaseason or otherwise. I'm sure Coach Saban has exercised due dilligence in assembling the best team he possibly could within the confines of the salary cap. I'm also sure he and his coaching staff has done their damndest to teach this team the best schemes possible to win every game. I just don't know if we're good enough this year.

I know, I don't remember, why didn't the Broncos dominate?

I don't really remember either. The only thing I remember was Plummer giving everyone the finger. I'm trying to forget everything that happened last year.

The first preseason game was a glorified scrimmage.

The last preseason game is for the scrubs and OH GOD PLEASE DON'T get hurt.

I have seen the Dolphins play worse. Last year in the third preseason game. That is when I realized there was little hope for that season. Why? Because the third preseason game is the only one that kind of has some meaning.

The Tampa Bay game shows some hope for the season. Especially for a 6-10 season :)
 
You're probably right dupree. And for our beloved fins' sake I really hope you are.
 
if the if's go our way we could win if not win give them a run for it. If Gus plays well if the line plays well if Welker does well(he will he plays hard) If Mare plays well. Our defense is going to be good we have yet to see what they can do. we have good coaches we have a chance.
