What happens if the dolphins lose this weekend?

Just interested to hear what everyone think of the rest of the season.

I think we're out of it if we lose. Its a huge momentum change. I understand that we're not going to go 7-0 the rest of the way, but still. Losing a game towards the end is different than losing now. It would kill the players confidence. At least the division race is over. 2 games behind the Jets, with them holding the tiebreaker, really makes it 3 games back. Imposisble to come back. And as a wildcard, maybe. Still pretty tough

We would still exceed expectations, but now that we have a shot at making the playoffs, lets make it.

We will not lose to the Raiders.

heh, well, just means we can only lose one more game, which we can still 3-0 against SF/STL/KC and go 2-1 in our division We have to beat the jets though... most important game of the season...

if we lose tho i'll more likely think we go 9-7 or 8-8... right now i think we have a really good chance for 10-6 and it's what i expect...
i thought we'd get 7-8 wins preseason, but with what they're showing me... we can be a 10 win team, we have to take advantage of this easy schedule, cuz the next few year's its gonna be much tougher

First of all, let me start off by saying that this game is going to be ALOT harder then a lot of dolphin fans realize. We dont match up well with these guys, yes they are a bad team, but we just dont matchup well. I still believe were going to win because of coaching and the fact they make a ton of mistakes.

Secondly, if we lose, were still 5-5 and still have a chance at post-season but either way, i consider this season a success.

The predictable "bench Pennington; start Henne" threads will be flowing.

They're pretty much screwed if they lose. If you can't beat the Raiders, then you're not a good team. And yes, I'm aware the Jets lost to them. :D

 

[Tetragrammaton]

If we lose, we can probably stop talking about playoffs. The division will be a distant memory and the wild card spot will slip away as well.

 

[Predaphin]

If we lose, then we've tanked the season.

There is abosuletley no reason or excuse why we should lose. And don't anyone give me that "any given Sunday" crap.....c'mon this is the wobbly hobbly limping Raiders were are talking about here.

Probably the only team I can consider as bad as the Lions.

We go to plan B again and that is be very happy with a 7-8 win season and the improvement made this year and look foward to a great draft and off-season!

We're also coming off a 1-15 season. So when did we become world beaters? This game is not going to be an easy win.

the internet explodes.

It means we have not arrived yet and that we can't seal the deal..yet. I don't think it will happen. IF it did it will be a big momentum killer and will prove that we will need luck to get in to the playoffs and backing in from other teams failing.
