    Another victory!

    If they beat the Bills next week they could be in first place. The end of the year game with the Jets is looking huge.


    (I'm not saying the Fins will go anywhere in the playoffs but it's a big turnaround from last year)

    Is it the Coach? Is it Parcells? Is it all Joey Porter on D??

    Not a titans fan...just think they will win the SBowl.


    Fins can make the playoffs. Can't see them getting anywhere beyond MAYBE the first round but it's a big turnaround from the disaster last year. A playoff appearance should be the story of the nfl year imo.

    How about that , ahem, impressive win by the Pats over the Sehawks yesterday??? Looks like they are going to go far. Pats, Jets and Dolphins all tied for the top spot. Still have to think the Jets will survive out of that group, but the fish are hanging tough and playing well. Can't really say the same for the Brady(less) Bunch though.

    Both the Fins and the Jets have a lot to lose this weekend.

    Hopefully, the Seahawks will kick butt>>>>>>>>>

    Dolphins have the D...i just wish the offence could get a few more points per game. It will be their downfall.

    Unfortunately the Dolphin offense is not designed to score a lot of points. They rely on ball control, not turning the ball over and the short, safe passing game. Much of that is due to fact that, as yet, we don't have the "game breaker" at wide out! Maybe this year's draft?

    I'm a dolphins fan, but even if they had an all-star WR, I don't think Pennington has the arm to get it down the field safely. I think if he starts tossing 20+ yard passes, the interceptions would pile up.

    I agree completely about Pennington, that's why I mentioned "the short, safe passing game. I would rather imagine that Chad Henne will get a lot of reps next exhibition season.

    BTW, I've been a DolFan since 1970 when Shula took over. In the early 70's, Czonka, Kiick and Manny Fernandez were customers of mine, I cut up wild boar they had hunted in the 'Glades. Czonk's wife was a regular at the Winn Dixie were I worked.

    I'm not sure I agree. The few passes he's thrown for 20+ yards have been right on the money. Did you see the 61 yard pass he made to David Martin in the first half against San Fran? Martin didn't have to turn around, it laid right in his arms. He bobbled it a bit, but TD!

    Pennington's had tons of protection lately, and I believe that's one of the biggest factors in his success of late.
