Don't think I've ever been a bigger Dolphins fan

Than I will be today. Lots of Pats fans running their mouths this week.

Who's "running their mouth" about beating the Fins? I haven't seen one Pats fan boasting any sort of easy win.

 

[Broncosr0k]

The comments were not about the pats beating the fins. They have been about things like "Anyone still think the broncos are a SB contender" or "we have 1st all locked up" after the broncos lost to the patriots.

Definitely rooting for the Phins today, but I think the toughest remaining game for NE figures to be next week, at Baltimore.

I would think so. Though i do think the 'Phins have enough to give 'em a hard time today...

 

[NEhomer]

We have first all locked up?

You must be referring to the briz! Things are def rosey in his world. Im just not seeing smack coming from Pats fans. The vast majority of us realize how lucky we've been and nobody's buying SB tix just yet.

If the Broncs were a game behind the Pats and NE took a loss, I'm sure there'd be a level of celebration by Broncs fans.

Today's game is DEF not one to look past which has been the consensus at our board.

Definitely agree. Miami has been playing well since losing three of its starting offensive linemen. Didn't really see that coming.

I don't read your board, but I don't recall reading many posts on the general board claiming that the Pats are a lock for postseason success. I think most fans understand that NE has done a good job of winning as many games as it has with so many key injuries.

Broncos fans should worry about the Chiefs as well and its not like the Broncos are playing that well with 2 road games ahead. The Broncos should win both games but with that defense and another shaky offensive performance who knows?

You are certainly right that it is possible that we could drop at least one of those two games. And if we play like we did Thursday, I think it's likely that we will lose again. Personally, however, I'm trying not to put too much stock into how poorly we played against SD. I think that SD played extremely well, we didn't, and they basically just wanted it more than our guys did.

Well if thats the case and the Broncos didnt want the game as much then there is a problem with this team.

Yeah, but it's a problem that's familiar to an overwhelming majority of all teams in all sports, isn't it? Not at all uncommon to see a good team come out flat, particularly against a division rival that's fighting for its playoff life. Could be wrong, but I expect we'll take advantage of the few extra days and finish the season strong.

Short week didn't seem to help us out at all. Lets see what a long (mini-bye) week will do.

 

[MrDoc420]

Thanks Dolphins! That's huge for us

 

[craigk217]

You're welcome, Broncos fans!!!!

Hard to keep up the proper intensity for 16 games in a season, so i definitely see where you're coming from and agree. Simply put, some games are gonna be stinkers. Looking at the big picture i'd certainly be glad that i only have 3 losses at this point in the season...

I think you guys are fine for the most part...

That's every single week. But yeah, the "just give us our rings now" bullshit was sickening. Revolting in fact.

THIS IS GREEEEEEEEEEEEEEAT!

Yes This is precisely the kind of crap I was talking about. The Dolphins are to the Patriots, as the Chargers are to the Broncos. An inner division nemesis that always plays them tough, home or away. I honestly thought this would a game the Pats would be primed to lose, and give Denver back control of the AFC. I was right
