I'd love to see the Dolphins turn this season around, but I really haven't seen too much to give me hope :( . But let us look at the remaining schedule one game at a time and see what we get...

Bye week - we might be able to win this one :tongue:

Bears at home - I'm not sold on Grossman being the next great Bear QB. I think their offense plays into Miami's defensive strengths, so this game will be much closer than their records will show. This game will come down to the team that causes the most turnovers. I'd love to say Miami pulls the upset up here as the Dolphin coaching staff shores up Miami's second have defense, but don't see the turnovers coming through. Chicago 17 - Miami 13

Chiefs at home - I don't think KC is going to have Trent Green back into game shape by this game and don't think Damon Huard is their answer at QB. Their main weapon is Larry Johnson and Miami has shown the ability to shutdown the opponent's star player. I think KC's lack of run defense is going to hurt them and Miami comes through with a win. Miami 28 - KC 14.

Vikings at home - The Vikings defense is much better this year than it has been in years past, but their offense is still running through an immobile old QB. I think Miami wins a close one here, with the difference being the home field advantage. Miami 24 - Minn 21

Rest coming after Heroes is off... ;)
 
If I am correct, we play the bears in chicago, not at home. I didn't get any Bears tickets in my season passes!
 
Miami will get torched if Grossman plays half as well as he did before the last game. We just don't have the secondary to keep up with them and their defense will make it hard for us to do anything.
 
Jesus, after watching the GB game yesterday, I hope we can beat Detroit..... and the score would be 9 - 6 A mediocre fieldgoal game....
 
:mad: the dolphins are having a really rough year

if mare actually makes the fieldgoals...
 
honestly, were not as bad as our recrod says we are, we've realistically been in every game but have found a way to loose every time, were not going to make the playoffs but i think we might be able to finish strong at 6-10 or 7-9
 
(cont. - by the way, Heroes was incredible!)

at Lions - The Lions are in as big a mess as the Dolphins are, but they have several more years of practice than we do :wink: . I think Joey will be very motivated and focused for this game. Dolphins pull away down the stretch. Miami 38 - Lions 21

Jaguars at home - The Dolphins literally run into a brick wall after their 3 game winning streak. The Jacksonville defense has the players and coaching to completely shut down Miami's offense. Jacksonville 28 - Miami 10

Patriots at home - As many pieces as New England is missing from their team this year, they still keep finding ways to win. It pains me to say, but I see Saban being out-coached by Belichek... New England 24 - Miami 14


at Bills - Miami braves the cold and exacts revenge for a very poorly played game earlier this season. Losman shows his true colors and completely folds. Miami 27 - Buffalo 14

Jets at home - New York is the Big Green Fungus, but the rookies on the offensive line will have had a full season under their belts and keep the Dolphins defense off Pennington. Their defense shows up and forces more turnovers as the horrid Jets pull out another one. New York 20 - Miami 12

at Colts - The Colts will have their division locked up and have home field advantage. They will play their starters the first half then try to coast the second. The Dolphins are playing for pride and pull it out in the fourth quarter. Miami 28 - Baltimore 27

This gives Miami a 6 - 10 record and a 4-7 draft pick next year. I see the draft going heavily in the OL and LB fronts.

Sorry, old-back handed slam at them jumping ship from Baltimore. I -just- can't get myself to say "Indianapolis" and "Colts" at the same time... :D

Drat, sorry about that. I still think it will be close, especially since I think they will be overlooking a 1-6 team. But I do have to say that the Bear defense hits harder and plays faster than anyother I've seen this year...

Good jab. I do think that one problem that the Dolphins are suffering from is the dreaded "paralysis by analysis". I have a feeling that Saban is going to simplify a few things and go back to stressing more fundamentals the next two weeks. I think the Dolphins will do like last year - play much better down the stretch.

Sorry dude but we are as bad as our record says, I'm a long time dolphin fan, 1970, when I was only ten years old and we have had some great years and some really bad one's lately. We will get through this, but it's going to take time. Everybody starts going nuts but let's give it some time and let Saban build the team.
