I know we had a disappointing season but I am downloading the games and wanted to know what games you thought we played the best this year. State who we played against, what week it was, and what was so special about the game.
 
I would have to say the 1st half of the Giants and Patriots 2nd game.

I'm sure a lot will pick the Bills game as our best game because we won but the most exciting game was the Dallas game even though it was a heartbreaking loss.
 
The first Bills game. The defense punished their offense in that game and the offense put up 30+
Even the special teams blocked a punt for a TD. A total team effort.
 
Beating the jets to end the season and a win for jason taylor

Was just about to mention that game. The fact that they went all nerd rage and imploded during and after the game made it an instant classic in my mind.
 
I would say the game vs the Raiders! Man that D was so on point! They looked like a true veteran playoff team!

Checkers. Maybe dominoes. Clearly something other than football.


On the serious side, I think we played best in the game we whacked the Chiefs. Offense wasn't great, but protected the ball, and the defense had it's best performance for 4 quarters.
 
Best game when it still mattered was Cleveland -- 38 rushes to 19 and nearly 38 minutes time of possession. That was a very good situational spot for Miami, as road underdog after opening with two home defeats. We figured to have considerably more intensity than they did. Fortunately the deficit ended 1 point and not 3.

Once it reaches 0-4...0-5...0-6, irrelevancy attaches and I'm not sure anything qualifies. Late season we were kings of the maiden claimers.
 
It had to be the last game against the Jets. Yes the season was over for us but being able to play spoilers to the Jets season made the whole season a little easier to swallow.
The 21 play 94 yard drive for our only TD was both great and painful to watch. We kept inching the ball down the field and barely converting 1st downs. But in the end we finally got the ball in the endzone for the only Fins Td of the game. This put us ahead for good and the defense did the rest from there. Total team effort.

I thought that this was our only win against a team with a winning record. But 8-8 is only a non-losing record so that doesn't qualify for that statement.
We did beat 4 teams with winning records at the times we played them although none went on to have winning records by season end.
KC was 4-3 when we crushed them, Buffalo was 5-4 when we destroyed them and Oakland was 7-4 and looking like a playoff team when we rolled over them. The loss to us started their downfall. The Jets were 8-7 at the time and had a playoff spot on the line. So that makes it slightly better for me than these other 3.

And besides its the Jets.
