It all comes down to how we perform against the Texans. If we go into reliant stadium and dominate the game and our secondary rises to the occasion then look for us to really make a run at this thing. If we dont and we lose this game then the reality will just be that we are a young team who will win 5 to 6 games this year and show flashes of the future with a few big upset wins. But ladies and gentleman this week will tell us who the 2008 Miami Dolphins really are from a number of different standpoints.. It is time to see if we are past the days of "choking" and losing games we are supposed to win. Albeit we are the underdogs.
 
Im more nervous about this game than i have been about a game in a long time plus the excitement is just there i always have butterflies in the game snow
 
Im with you brother.. This game will tell us sooo much for sooo many different reasons!!!
 
I agree that this game is huge. IF we come out and put together a bruiseing win, I'm going to start getting stoked.
 
Their passing attack scares me alittle, A.Johnson can be a beast and Schaub played great in his last start. I'm confident we'll shut down their run game, and hopefully we'll maintain some long drives ourselves.
 
I admit Johnson is a beast and they have a good passing game and that rookie slayton looks promising....but their passing game scares you more than San Diego's passing game? come on now

The Colts played a 4-3 and did little as far as blitzes. They got almost no pressure on the QB. Also, a number of their big plays were on misdirection roll-outs (Line slants one way with the back doing the same and the QB going the other...) The Colts did not stay with their assignments and the QB was left by himself with 0 pressure.

I think our D will put alot more pressure on the QB and I think we will maintain our assignments...I don't see the QB getting the same time they did against the Colts.
 
tony has put some fire under this guys,we'll wait and see how bad they want it,and 2 see has things really cahange in MIAMI
 
Its funny, I think this too, but I've said this for every single game before as well.
The Jets game was supossed to tell us the direction of the team, as well as the Chargers game, and for some, the Cards and Pats games.
 
This is a very telling game. I think that to keep this momentum going, we have to dominate this game, at least in regards to the moral on finheaven. You know that if we let them finish the game within seven points of us, half the threads will be asking why we let it get so close. The other most important games will be against San Fransisco, Kansas City, and the last two against the Bills and the Jets. Extra credit for anyone who can guess why.

Because they're the last games of the season, and we'll be fighting for a playoff spot, so we have to win.

How many points do I get?

Close enough, but the answer I was looking for was that they are December games, in which Miami has traditionaly failed. We have proven we can beat the contenders, now we have to beat the pretenders, then we have to beat the Decemberes.

So I get partial credit?

Damn, my parents said that if I didnt get 100% I couldnt watch the games anymore
 
I gave you formal thanks for both posts, but I cant go as far as a pat on the back. I hope you had fun playing "Read Passrushs Mind", you are welcome back to the show any time. This show airs nightly at 1145, after Passrushs third drink.
