Look guys don't get completely down on the Phins this year I realize that we may not have as good of a team as the Colts do but the preseason means absolutely nothing. The Colts didn't even win a game this preseason, does that mean they are going to have the number one pick in the draft. NO. I'm just tired of reading that it's going to be another long season, and that we aren't any good and stuff like that. Just wait until about week 10 to find out how our season is going to go.
 
are you serious? the Colts went 0-4 because all of the QB's behind manning suck. Manning played, what, 3 quarters all preseason? Its like the QB situation in Green Bay. Since the backups never get to play, they all are rusty and suck.

I guarantee you Indy will go deep in the playoffs. and don't compare us to them simply by means of preseason standings. while being 1-4 may not mean crap to some, our performance during that time DID.

Indy finished 0-4 because they played all 2nd and 3rd stringers. we finished 1-4 playing our first and second stringers.

yeah, i'm worried. have you seen our QB's?

all game?
 
Wow, it must be hard being TexasPHINSfan. All the guy does is say negative thing after negative thing. I have a glimmer of hope here. But this guy already has the Dolphins gravesite chosen for this season
 
Hey look, Losman threw an int. returned for a TD (Lions 7 Bills 0). Of course, the power rankings have the Bills as a top 10 team. Their QB situation has no bearing on their ranking.

I think you missed the point of the post. Read it again.

I think the feeling is with one of the best defenses in the NFL, a pretty good recieving core and a good runningback in McGahee, that the Bills will be able to not depend on Losman too much giving him a chance to grow into being an NFL quarterback.

i got the point of the post.

the point was that indy finsihed 0-4 in the preseason, yet we all know indy will do well this year. I said you cannot possibly compare that to us and our situation, comparing preseaon record to preseason record.

Indy did poorly for whatever reason, who knows why? they have Peyton Manning, Edgerrin James, and Marvin Harrisson. I'd have to think they aren't worried. Do we have a Peyton on the roster? If we did, you can bet i'd be shut up right now.

1) Indy played 5 games this preseason, most others played 4.
2) Peyton is 15th on the passing yards chart in the AFC. He also has 4 TDs and 1 INT. He also has less passing yardage than Gus, AJ, and Sage.
3) Marvin had 83 yards receiving, and doesn't even appear on the WR stat page for the AFC
4) Edge only rushed 17 times for 54 yards ALL preseason. again, doesn't even appear on the AFC stat page, much less the complete NFL page.

where do you get your stats?

That also describes the Dolphins (except for the QB growing part)

Like I said last night. Notice that we won the only game that slightly resembles reg season (game 3 is often called dressed rehearsal). Game planning, play calling etc. were specifically for Tampa and we looked much better. That's the one you want to win if there is only one, so it might still be a profitable year.
