rookie head coach rookie kicker a few "potential" good players on the lines but i'm sure a couple of them will be complete busts 2

try 4-12

Yes. 12-4 would be terrific.

DrunkenFan · 08-26-2008, 09:10 AM

4-12 being the more likely scenario. It's hilarious how a couple preseason wins gets the homers on this board into bed-wetting mode.

ztfan54 · 08-26-2008, 09:13 AM

die hard dolfan but we need another strong draft next year, that way we become a dynasty i would like 5-11 or 6-10

Damb dude it's one thing to be overly optimistic but, it's another to be pessimistic.

X-Pacolypse · 08-26-2008, 09:16 AM

12-4? Dude, I love your optimism. I really do. However, let's be real, because that's what we do around here. 5-11 or 6-10 is probably your best bet.

BladeRunner · 08-26-2008, 09:33 AM

With a solid running game, anything is possible. Mssrs. Williams, Brown and Parmele are bruising punishing backs. As one poster stated in this thread...."We will pick up a WR"....Look for it.

Everyone thought the Cheatriots were going to dominate the Giants....uh huh....Just look what happened to good ole Twinkle Toes Brady. Got his *** kicked in.

Don't be surprised if we nail at least a Wild Card entry.

Gents....On Any Given Sunday

You take jabs at the team and say that the QBs are among the worst in the NFL...

but your username is Dennis Dixon....like you got alot of room to talk. Dennis Dixon would be in the bottom 5 NO DOUBT

nick1 · 08-26-2008, 10:24 AM

our QBs are pretty good for once actually, Pennington barely knows the offense and look what he's done so far

SpaceMountain16 · 08-26-2008, 10:32 AM

I wonder what the record for best turnaround in in the history of the NFL? Because certainly if the Dolphins won say 8 or 9 games this year, they'd have to be up there. With an 7 or 8 game improvement over last year's 1-15 team?

PerfectFinz72 · 08-26-2008, 10:49 AM

HAHAHHAHA! Good times...good times.

Yeh, expect 6 or 7 wins.

ThunderDan13 · 08-26-2008, 12:03 PM

Last year's Browns were 4-12 and improved to 10-6. So why is it so crazy that we could be a playoff team and please don't retort with "we were 1-15, not 4-12" because when I see a team lose SIX GAMES by 3 points, I figure we weren't in reality as bad as we were on paper. Six games lost by 3 points means that a gust of wind going the other way a couple of times and we're 4-12. FURTHERMORE, a little research shows that a team went 1-15 and then ALMOST made the playoffs: The Jets went from 1-15 to 9-7 (a very possible play-off record) from the '96 to '97 season--one year.

A little more research finds these encouraging stories:
- '87-'88 Ravens went from 4-11 to 12-4 in one season.
- Colts went from two straight 3-13 seasons to 13-3 atop the AFC EAST back in '99 in a single year.
- Chargers went from 4-12 in '04 to 12-4 in '05. One season.
- Saints went from a 2005 3-13 record to a 10-6 record in 2006. One season.
- Rams 4-12 to 13-3 '98 to '99. Just one year.

Now. To all of you that are chanting PLAYOFFS I'm with you! This is why we play/watch the game, to root for our team to go the whole way!

To all the nay sayers, I say--I understand your skepticism, but let go of it, its much funner to dream! Besides, I've rationalized our good chances at a playoff run. If Brady is really injured, if Brett turns out to be a dud.... we already have a better team than the Bills... the AFC East has opened a window. There are tons of key injuries across the league. All I'm saying, if the preseason performances from our Dolphins are truly indicative of how good our team gels and of the possible talent we have.... a little luck, a little fan support and everything the sky is the limit.

No matter what any of you say, I won't stop chanting for the Dolphins to take it all every season!

Come on baby!! R&R EXPESS!!! The most accurate passer!! Young studs ready to take heads on D. I'm behind you Miami 100% Next stop Orlando!!
