Gotta give a tip of the cap to Brian Flores today. Management sold off all their best players and it looked like the classic case of tanking with the horrendous start and this guy wins 5 of the last 9 games and maybe just cost the Pats a trip to another SB. Really solid coaching job under extremely shitty circumstances.

Flores had this team believing in him and as a team. Trading all those players actually seems to have been a blessing and Fitzpatrick has the team loving him and breaking through walls for him

Yeah, for sure. I remember the locker room scene when the Fins won their first game. You could see that those guys were not quitting and would go through a concrete wall for Flores. Fitzpatrick is perfect for these guys. He may make bonehead mistakes at times but the guy is fearless. His team mates love him.

I didn’t get to watch the game, but it sounds like Fitz had a good day. The guy can play when he wants to.

A win like this only makes that bound even stronger! Phins should be Decent next year

I’ve seen the pats down 28-3 and be walking around talking about “it’s gonna be a helluva story”. I’ve seen them behind and just act as if they know they are gonna win. They were uninspired today. It’s like the team leaders know they don’t have enough playmakers.

The Dolphins looked lean and hungry and the Pats looked bored. One would have to think Belichick is pretty pissed off right now even though he never shows it publicly. And Brady is starting to look all of that 42 years finally. That pick 6 was something I've never seen from TB. Even his worst was never that bad or weird.

The Phins are appearing to believe in themselves. 5-4 last 9 games and a pretty dominant performance today
they also went into OT with the bengals last week.

5 wins vs bengals, eagles, jets, colts, pats 2 decent wins

also losses to the browns, jets, giants, and steelers.......

Compared to what they started at I think they are on the "ups"

im not saying they're arent on the ups, but to say because they beat the pats, they should be good next year is odd, literally just barely beat the team with the #1 pick on OT the week before
