We run the table

Not a single game we can't win, but that is also why you have to play the games....see Cleveland vs Pitts.

That's true, but we're not on a 5 game losing streak with 3 of those teams being the top 5 worse teams.
 
I have got a good vibe about this run we host the super bowl and the pro bowl plus we have to make improvements to the stadium so we have to make a run to bring in the fans to the stadium to bring revenue to help out stephen ross & co.
 
for some reason i feel extremly confident about our team right now. maybe its getting so high on us after we beat the pats, but with chad henne showing so much promise, ricky running the ball well, and cam wake and randy starks getting pressure on opposing qbs, i feel great.

does anyone else feel as optimistic as me?
 
Going to be tough to win out. Not impossible as we don't face any juggernauts but we're capable of beating anyone in the league or getting beat by anyone in the league. See: Buffalo and Tampa Bay...there's a better than good chance we lose at least 1 more game. I predict 8-8 but hope I'm wrong.
 
We should have a considerably easier time considering we are facing three teams who basically are out of the playoff race with losses last week (and the Steelers free fall). However we need to beat the Jaguars first, if we can do that, i'll be a lot more confident. I'm not worried about the Jets, and the Ravens i can still see losing to the Steelers so that would take them out of the picture. We might even be able to catch the Broncos if they lose two or three of their final four (which they likely will) with Indy, Philly, Oakland and KC looming. Plus who knows what the hell is going on with the Patriots.

Fins Win 4 Straight Bet The Ranch

The Ranch? I wouldn't bet dime that it happens.

We are the team who held the ball for 40 something minutes and lost to Indy. Had NO down by 21 with 31 minutes to play and lost. We lost to BUFFALO. We have a HC who has no idea how or when to use TOs. I am no supposed to expect this team to win 4 in a row?

If it happens, I'll be thrilled, but I will not bet anything that it does.

God love ya...I wish I could share in this optimism. But I have been down this road far too many times by these jokers to be let down. I feel we could win any/all of these games. But I also feel, just as likely, we'll have a game won and do something to screw it up.

It's just the Miami Dolphins culture. Look at the SD game (Ronnie fumbles at the half yard line), Indy (clock mgmt killed us), NO (play calling and Ginn did us in), ATL (starting the season totally unprepared), Buffalo (I still have no idea how a team with playoff aspirations loses to Buffalo).
 
No and Indy>>>>30 NFL teams. And I guarantee u ask brees n manning who they don't wanna see agaian this year and it's the fins.

ya ur rite, they have let us down time and time again. ive been through many of the heartbreakers, but i just feel this team is different. we used to choke it up in december every year, but last year with the new regime, every game was a must win in december for us and we managed to win every single one of those games, including last game in the meadowlands.

i no this board will be chaotic if we lose this weekend, but i just see us winning. The jaguars r a solid team, but there not as physical as us, and considering that more than half the crowd will be dolphin fans, its like a home game for us.

the game im most scared about is the titans. they are a similar team to us, but they have the best runningback in the league. they are very physical, and since vince young now gives them the threat of the qb run which kills us.

hopefully though, vince young wont play vs us bc i heard he just aggrevated his knee, and we can face that old fart kerry collins.

all i no is, its going to be a roller coaster ride as it is for us dolfans every single game, but im going along for the ride and hoping to enjoy it to the fullest extent.
 
one game at a time...... however i'd have to think teams that got by us earlier in the year such as indy and san diego would want no part of us should paths cross again.

One game at a time....Winning out would mean winning 5 in a row and our longest win streak this season is 2 games. Let's prove we can string together 2 games in a row against decent opponents before we think about running the table. That said, I appreciate your optimism.
 
It's nice you can be confident, but predicting success for the Miami Dolphins almost always leads to heartache.

I like how they match up with Jacksonville. But now it seems like nearly everyone is picking them and that's starting to scare me. Even though outside of Buffalo they have done a good job of beating teams they should beat under Sparano, they still seem to play their best games as underdogs.

And Tennessee. Vince Young's ability to scramble, the kind of runner Chris Johnson is ... it just seems to be an especially BAD matchup considering Miami's linebackers. This game scares me the most of the four left.
 
Wow. It's great you have anything that would support a prediction.

Crazed thing, as negative as I am, I see no reason why we can't win the table.

Unless we choke.

then I get to go through another season of

"X guy disrespects the Dolphins!"
