Why the Dolphins Can Beat the New York Jets

Wonder who that is directed at.

Generic statement, of course.

Oh, but of course. Hence the quotes.

An article needs to be written to defend the proposition that the Dolphins can beat the Jets? The Dolphins have finished with a losing record for the last three seasons. Their record against the Jets during that same span is 4-2 (and if you include Sparano's only winning season, the Dolphins' record against the Jets is 5-3). Basically the Dolphins have been a subpar team for a while now and they haven't had any problem beating the Jets. As for beating the Browns (not to mention the Patriots) . . . that's been a problem; the Jets not so much. This team is a mirror image of the late 90s-early 00s team that was much better than this one, but would always lose to the Jets.

Agreed especially the Texans, now there's a team that gives us big trouble. Jets, not so much.

i think the Bills will give us more trouble than the Jets. The Bill's make some progress in the off season. The Jets ? Not so much.

I know as a Supermod, your job is to enforce the rules of this forum.. But judging from your anti-dolphins/negative posts, aren't you supposed to be a homer as well???

There's a difference between being realistic and anti-dolphins.

So the bleacher report is ok when its a positive article?

No, still a garbage site. I didn't even bother clicking the link or reading the article. I just find it funny that anything positive said is called "homerism" and anything negative is "the truth" or "being realistic".

Right now, we are undefeated 0 - 0. We don't know what the team will look like this season and we might surprise. So yes... There is a difference between optimism/hope and pessimism.
