Not many people believed in us. You heard the questions last week. Big bad San Diego's coming in with that high powered offense. You didn't think we can get it done. The guys pounded their chest, bowed up, and re-established home field. That's what we're trying to do. It was real big for us.
"They talked about blacking out the TV game in South Florida for the first time in a long time. Not even last year during 1-15 did they black a game out here. A lot of things were accomplished today, but this is just another step. We're proud about what we did [Sunday], but it's just another step. [Twelve] more games, and I'm so excited.
"We're certainly getting [swagger]. The ball is starting to roll. We're starting to get that momentum. Coming back home and winning a big game after the bye [week] is huge for us.
"Let's get this understood, no Tom Brady, that's how they looked at that [New England] win. There was no Tom Brady, no [Laurence] Maroney. These guys are still jokes. People are going to look at [the San Diego] game right here and say the same thing.
"There are still plenty of nonbelievers out there. We're still going to have to fight for respect and we know that. We're in an uphill climb. We've taken that road and we're just going to take it one game at a time. We didn't win but one game last year, and here we are at 2-2.
"To the fans that were actually here, actually came out and supported us, believed in us, we appreciate it. It means so much. It was loud in there and that effected them some.
On the goal line [fourth-and-1 stop] they flinched a little bit and showed their hand and we were able to make a big play down there."
For that play, that noise, your support, Holliday, a team captain, thanks you on behalf of the Dolphins.
Now, what do you have to say to the team that has once again brought you joy on Sundays, and a pleasant hangover on Monday morning.
