we're only one game back of the final wild-card spot

[ronniebrown#1]

Fin-fans chill out were only one game back. Steelers,broncos have hard schedules and have consistency issues. If we beat the pats we will be back in the race. soo Cheer up Go Dolphins

That's what makes today loss so sick. Had we won we would be in the driver's seat but now we are lumped in with a ton of teams.

I usually hope for the best case scenarios, but after what I saw today I just think injuries, a young secondary, lack of talent at receiver, a young qb have just finally taken its toll on us.

 

[SpaceMountain16]

Yeah all we have to do now is go 4-1 and hope the other teams tank!

We aren't making the playoffs, just have to deal with that. Best we can hope for is 8-8 and a good off-season.

yeah, but we suck.

we still control our own fate, the teams that are contending for the wild-card spot are our opponents in the next 5 games. So its up to us if we really want it. I gurantee you that Sparono is going to motivate everyone to play a lot better, and we usually play well at home.

Come on now, we shouldn't mention Dolphins and playoffs under the same sentence. WE GOT BLOWN OUT BY THE FREAKIN BILLS

He can do all the motivating he wants but as long as the moron continues to allow Henning to call the most ridiculous plays at the worse possible times it won't matter. Sparano is probably a great coach mon-sat but come sun the guys a moron. He cost us the Saints game and very well probably cost us the Bills game. Somebody needs to inform him he's allowed to veto an assinine play call. P.S. this defense has NO chance of stopping the Patriots. We couldnt stop a team with a bad qb playing behind the worse o-line in the league and you actually think we're going to stop Brady and the Pats offense? I've seen enough of our defense to know that's not going to happen.

It would be amazing but it looks unlikely. Just too many injuries and young players. However, look at this. The Steelers lost 3 in a row[one to the Chiefs!], the Jaguars got blown out by the 49ers, the Ravens are struggling, The Broncos are still in collapse mode I dont care if they beat the struggling Giants at home, the Texans collapsed big time today, and Jets have lost too many tiebreakers it seems.

The ONLY team in the wild card hunt that is playing well are the Titans. We do control our own fate, but they really have to play hard if they want it. Phins could sneak in.

 

[finner]

Fock that -- this team is going NOWHERE. After collapsing in the 4th quarter and giving up 24 to Buffalo (Buffalo!) "playoffs" are a JOKE!

And we still have some tough games ahead. Besides the Pats we go to Tenn and host the Texans. Those are the 3 toughest. I have to include the Texans because we just can't seem to find a way to beat them.

 

[WildPatWV]

Compare the Fins schedule to the Steelers, plus having to actually play them when they are healthy again......sorry not seeing it. The Steelers have lost most of their games at the last second and with crippling injuries. Sorry, I dont see it unless they keep losing people left and right on top of losing to teams like Oakland while the fins have to beat NE, jax, Houston, Tenn (who is very hot).

Not impossible, not bloody likely either.

Lock of the century: Andre Johnson gets 150+ receiving yards.
