If they beat us and the Jets, and Cincy loses AT KC (which is almost a certainty in Dec.) then NE gets the 3rd seed. Lets knock them out!
 
I hope the Pats stay in the 4th seed ,we get jax, then go to the dome and slap down
the colts.Who knows the Steelers may beat cincy and denver and come to Foxboro
for the AFCC game.
 
I'd just like to hurt NE's chance of winning another Super Bowl!
 
i hope we beat the pats, would sure be a nice ending to a good season...6 game winning streak, maybe we can carry it over to the next season
 
The Pats are scarier but the Bucs always play horrible in the snow. This game being in the RCA Dome is a huge advantage for the Colts.

Let's face it--teams in the north have an added advantage with the snow. People talk about Miami's "heat and humidity" in September being an advantage, and it is--it wears opponents who aren't used to it down, but you don't have to significantly change your game plan to account for it, outside of perhaps having to substitute more and keep better hydrated.

But when you play in the snow, it drastically changes your gameplan because the passing game is harder to execute if it's windy and with snow flying in your face, and the prospect of fumbling the football is greater, plus it is hard for the backs to keep their footing.

I have a feeling the Pats might not even make it that far anyway. They're good, but I just have a gut feeling.

Besides, perhaps if the Pat cornerbacks weren't playing piggyback on the Colt receivers a few years ago, or at least got FLAGGED for it, perhaps Peyton would have had a chance. I couldn't believe how the Patriots unashamedly interfered with the receivers play after play in the 4th quarter and didn't draw a solitary flag. There's incidental contact and there's mugging. They did the latter.

What kills me is that if New England had lost at Pittsburgh last year, the season would have been even more meaningful for Miami.

Instead, while we did get a nice win over NE in the regular season, they yet again got the last laugh because who cared when they won the Super Bowl anyway :cry:
 
what really sucks is that N.E will play the Jags at home for their wild card game, that's the weakest playoff team in the conference. The Jaguars have been barely beating crappy teams, they beat the 49ers 10-9, they are in the playoffs becuase of their easy schedule. I wish they played the Steelers, but that won't happen. The playoffs would be better if it was Indy and DEnver, like they are,Cincy at no.3 and N.E at no.4 seed, then Pittsburgha at no.5 seed and no.6 seed the Chiefs. How would N.E be knocked out of the 3rd seed spot, I remeber seeing New England at no.4, and that's a lock since they won the division.
 
Any win over the Patsies is nice, but just winning to finish the season out on a positive note is worth it. What happens to NE after next week isn't of much importance except that if we win, we'll have more to grow on next year. What it does or does not do to NE is inconsequential...
 
We must do it in a way that's known as INTENSE!!!!!!!!!
 
knocking NE out of the #3 seed. I will be honest, i'm not sure if that is a good thing.
 
I wish they were no.3 seed so then they would play the steelers,
Of course I want Miami to beat them, but I would rather have them be the no.3 seed than the no.4 seed. I believe they will be host to the Jaguars if the remain the 4th seed. I think it's 4 vs 5th seed and 3rd vs 6th seed. I think there is a much better chance of the steelers knocking the pats out of the playoffs than the Jaguars.
