Dolphins play some tough teams yet (Saints, Patriots, Steelers) and some decent teams (Jets, Texans) however, look at whose left: Buccaneers, Jaguars, Titans, Panthers, and Bills. Of course, the games still have to be played, but the schedule isn't as tough as we all expected before the season started.
 
Unfortunately the Pats don't have much left on their schedule...we will have to sweep them.
 
Starting 0-3 really hurt us. Had we at least gotten 1 of those 3 we would be in much better shape at the end of season vs the Patsies.
 
Ask the Jets about the cupcake Bills.

Any given Sunday.
 
Starting Nov. 1st we play 6 of 8 on the road.

I believe that that fact coupled with an inexperienced Pro-Qb makes our schedule tough, no matter the opponents.

The schedule is tough, no doubt about it. But playoff teams beat those teams. It's a good thing to know we still have it in our hands. We absolutely have to win these 7 games against those "decent" teams if we want to go anyhwere. If we don't win we don't deserve it anyway.

Let's keep rolling......
 
If we can go 2-1 over the next three games against the Saints, Jets & Pats we'll be 4-4. We'll probably only be underdogs in our remaining games against the Pats & Steelers. Of course we also have to face the Texans which I believe we've never beaten, at least not recently.

I believe 10-6 is the worst record we can have and still have a good chance to make the playoffs. when Pennington went down, I thought we'd be lucky to be 8-8 but if Henne keeps playing well, I'm cautiusoly optimistic that 10-6 is within reach.

+1 . Also consider the fact that the team started 0-3 and they basically put themselves in a whole where at most they can lose only 2 games, maybe 3, although I dont think 10-6 would even cut it for a wildcard. The fins basically have to go 2-1 in the next 3 games and then can only lose one more the rest of the year... imo
 
We need to win all 6 divisional games to have a chance, otherwise I really think it's an impossible task otherwise. That slow start killed us but thankfully anything can still happen.
 
Henne is going to have a bad game very soon.

9-6 is what we are left with.

10-6 if the defense didn't suck vs the Colts, or Ginn catches the TD.

Shotenheimer was an idiot. Thomas jones was averaging over 9 a carry... and they decided to win it with sanchez? Maybe they should have studied us beating them and they might have won.
