I know this sounds very naive, but when we were up 24-3, the thoughts going through my mind were unreal. I tried to fight the urge, but i couldn't help but wonder: maybe everything has finally come together, maybe we are really this good, maybe we could be a super bowl contender.It gave me the chills. Of course, these thoughts were quickly erased, and by the time the game was over, I felt like i had to puke.

I guess that is why this game was so devastating to me. I went from the highest high, to feeling like the girl of my dreams had just broken up with me.

I'm just wondering if anyone else shared that thought pattern. In other words, what did you true dolphins fans think when you saw 24-3?
 
As a true Dolphin fan (as you put it) I thought to not get too excited until the game was over. Football has 4 quarters for a reason.
 
It's called "becoming a prisoner of the moment." No, Super Bowl thoughts ever crossed my mind. As the Dolphins took a 24 - 3 lead and everyone around me was going ape****, I calmly stood there dreading the second half because I feared exactly what happened unfortunately. I couldn't believe what I was seeing from both teams, but I couldn't jump the gun. I've learned thru years of suffering not to jump the gun.
 
I knew the game was over after the saints scored right before the half. it was like the first scent of blood to a shark.

I had the same exact feeling. Made going into halftime feel like crap and totally shifted the momentum.

Yeah, i started feeling down after that. My wife told me i was being harsh and that the dolphins still played great so far. I agreed, but told her I know my fins. and I'm not happy until miami is up and the clock reads 0:00. lol
 
I was thinking upset and Saints fans eating crow. Especially after visiting their site and seeing a thread titled: "How can anyone pick the Dolphins to win?"
 
I was at the game, and as soon as they scored to end the half, I had a sick feeling in my stomach that the Dolphins were going to somehow blow it.
 
Haha, you must of not been a fins fan very long. I am antsy even with a 35 to zip lead. This is the NFL and teams can come back in an instant. We are average. The good news is we are growing and getting much better. In 1 or 2 years we are going to be tough.
 
i thought we looked like a super bowl team in the first half defense played great offense played great
 
The closest this team will be to the Super Bowl is......well, the locker rooms at Landshark Stadium since that's where it's going to be played.
