take off your SOJ fan glasses and we minght be seeing the same world...Have faith in two things. The phins got WORSE this off-season and the Jets got better.
Yea I expect to sweep the Dolphins. I wouldn't be surprised to lose 1 to them but we are a much better team. Their QB situation is dicey and they lost their number 1 WR the only offensive player on that team that really gave us trouble. Cromartie can lock down Ochocinco as he has in the past which leaves Revis to guard whoever else. If our offense plays marginally and doesn't have a bad turnover day there is no reason we shouldn't win both of those games. Their defense is still pretty good. Vontae Davis is a good corner and Cameron Wake is good but another year older.
It's always hard to predict this rivalry ... no matter the level of talent on either side. I think Garrard will get the start week 1 and as long as he can manage the game like Pennington did in 08, I think we can be a pretty decent team nobody wants to play. Chad looked really good in the practice footage they showed last night, but we will see what happens when the games get going. I am really excited about Bess this year because they are putting him exclusively in the slot and not moving him around as such under Sparano. Defensively against the Jets, the only threat I fear is Keller as we are very suspect against TEs of his prototype. I don't think our group of WRs is as bad as everyone says. Bess is one of the top slot guys in the league, Hartline has the ability, and I think Chad could be very servicable still in the West Coast offense.
I have no interest, only watched when the Jets were on. The show is very well done, too, I just could give a shit about any other teams.
Is it funny because they aren't showing off the amount of AFC Championship game trophies they could have won but lost and brag about it anyway? lol jk
The fan saying he thinks Ryan Tannehill will take them to a Super Bowl within two years lol. :rofl2: :finssuck:
I did enjoy this, but it was somewhat Jets related and was on during the season. I picked it up as he was preparing to get beat by us in Week 2 and stuck with it.
Jets vs. Dolphins ... throw out the records. It's a tough game for both teams no matter which one is good or bad. If either Jets or the Dolphins wins only 5 games & the other makes it to the SB, I'd still expect these two to split. Kind of amazing how the rivalry has remained so tight with so many regime changes on both ends.
Yeah that's what I'm saying!! Any Dolphins Jets game in the last 4 years has just about gone down to the final drive!
Any AFC East not Pats vs Bills is a toss up really. Obviously edge goes to the Pats but they always drop a division game here and there they really shouldn't. The others usually stay close. I really liked the Hard Knocks episode one. Philbin seems like a great guy too. Hopefully he ends up being a great coach somewhere else
I have high hopes for him and like his cerebral approach and ability to develop QBs ... we shall see!!
How did they get much worse than they were last season? If I'm not mistaken they finished 1 game behind the Jets, correct? (7-9, 8-8) and split the series. The Fins drafted their needs and did not lose anyone great in free agency, so how did they get worse? They addressed the RT need in the 2nd round, depth at RB & TE, QB competition, offensive minded coach, Pass Rusher in 3rd round and acquired CB depth. What am I missing here besides the decline of WR due to Brandon Marshall getting traded? On the other hand, the Jets have not addressed the RT position, Wr Depth is still an issue, safety is a concern,TE is the same and don't forget the potential time bomb that could go off if Mark Sanchez performs like Mark Sanchez with Tebow behind him. I'm not ragging on the Jets though because I like what they did with Stephen Hill, but please lets not act as if they were much better than the Dolphins last year or will be much better this year. Lets see how things play out before we all look like donkey butts.
You could about make the argument (imo) that the Fins overall wr corps is better than that of the Jets
