Your Prediction for the rest of the season

I said 10-6 at the beginning of the season. I'll stick with it.

I say we beat:

Steelers/Chargers/Bengals 2 of the 3, Panthers, Bucs, Bills, Jets, and Pats
 
I didn't makeany predictions before the season started and I wont make any now. Most of us didn't think we'd start 3 and 0 and we did. Nobody thought we'd lose the next 3 after that but we did.Who knows what they'll do now? Nothing will surprise me from this team. In the end, they always let us down year after year.

Ozzy rules!!
 
I am waiting to see what they do these next two games. If they come out and beat an overrated Patriots team and then actually show up for a Home game (Primetime one at that) and beat the Bengals then I will say they will go 11-5.

If they lose to the Patriots, a team that is not dominant anymore but, a team that has embarassed them in recent history. Then I will say the season is over and they will be lucky to win 7 games.

You blow games at home to the Ravens and Bills then you have to make up for those loses by winning in New England and taking care of business at home against a solid Bengals team. Someone needs to ligth a fire under this teams collective butts. The defense needs to make some adjustments and play with some passion.We need to see more of Dion Jordan. The Offense needs to commit to the running game and protect Tannehill. Tannehill needs to stop turning the ball over.

Many people are saying "oh the Patriots are angry they are coming off a loss". "Oh the Patriots are great and the Dolphins have no chance". The Dolphins need to have some pride and they should be the team that is pissed off. They should be angry with the way they have played 3 games in a row. They should be steaming mad and ready to take it out on a team that has pretty much bullied them for many years now. The Dolphins have more than enough talent to beat the Patriots. They just need to go out and do it. They need the coaches to have them ready to play and not be so stubborn. They need their QB to prove that he can be more than just an average Joe. It's time for the Dolphins to man up go out and kick some Patriot butt.
 
What really stings is with all of the injuries that have occurred this season the AFC is their for the taking for some young team to step up and snatch it away from the usual favorites. The Texans suck, the Broncos have protection and defensive issues, the Colts just lost Wayne for the season, the Ravens are not what they were last year and even the Patriots are not the same team they've been in recent years. We're going to see coaching rear it's ugly head Sunday when BB and hi limited talent exposes all of our weaknesses and we are unable to expose any of theirs. What's sad is if there is any AFC East team primed to capitalize on the Patriots injury riddled team it's Rex Ryan, Geno Smith and the Jets. A team finheaven laughed at all off season and I was reminded by one poster how our situation was so much better than theirs and their coach would be fired at the end of the season. Not so sure about that now, if Ryan keeps it going he could be a coach of the year candidate.
 
My original pick was 9-7, but I really vacillatedbetween 9-7 and 10-6, uultimately predicting 9-7. I'm comfortable with that.

Also, I expected poor OL play and predicted as much ... we lost our best OL and promoted our poor RT to LT and then added a power scheme RT to play zone scheme RT ... and failed in 2 attempts to replace the lazy John Jerry (with Lance Louis or Dallas Thomas). Yeah, the line problems were expected.

Only rose colored glasses would say losing our most valuable OL, and our two top TD scorers (Bush and Fasano) would be easily replaced by backups and retreads.

****ing love it!
 
Im still saying 10-6. I said from the beginning we'd split the Bills and the Pats. Think that stays the same.

Wins Vs:
Jets x2 (yes, still think so despite some of their lucky wins)
Chargers
Panthers or Bucs
Steelers
Bills
Pats

That's 10-6

5-11. I'm just so disappointed in Philbin, Sherman and Coyle. This team, warts and all, should be 5-1. I'm actually dreading watching Sundays game.

+1

Even with a 3-0 start, there were problems (especially o-line), and I hoped the staff would fix things. Nope. They lost to Baltimore and Buffalo because they ignored their weaknesses thinking that they could "coach" them away. These guys couldn't out-coach a Pee Wee League team. I'm hoping that they crush the Pats (just for fun), and then lose the rest just to get rid of these guys.
