A showdown few saw coming.A chance to overtake a team that has won the past five division titles

``Nobody picked us to win this many games, and people thought New England would be 9-1 or 10-0,'' says Miami linebacker Joey Porter, the NFL sack leader. ``So you've got two teams where you thought one would be better than they are, and you thought one would be sorrier than they are. Good for us"

todays vagas line 2 mins ago " MIAMI -2, Total 42" Dolphins are listed as a two-point favorite, with a posted total of 42 points. I like the under/ big d 14-10 fins

give them hell dolphins you have made us proud and u can do it

no doubt

If you would have asked me at the beginning of the year, if we would be playing the second game against New England, with hopes of a division lead……I would have given you a number to a good rehab place, just for asking!! This is great, regardless of what happens Sunday, I’m happy as hell right now. Things are only going to get better too.

Now, lets light this candle and get the W baby!

I love how the last three posts all have melodramatic titles.

This week is wild.

I was on the crazy live thread the day we beat Baltimore last season; tomorrow has the potential to be even greater…To be a witness to what posts used to look like on this site this time last year (read: college scouting charts), and some of things we’re reading today only one season removed………very satisfying.

You said it Husk, no matter what happens, I haven’t felt this hyped about a game in any sport for a long, long time.

Man, I thought I was crazy

I did think we’d win some games this year. I called it 9 – 7 right before Week 1, just going thru the whole schedule and callin em right off the top of my head. I thought I was crazy, but you know, playoffs never entered my mind. I could not see this comin.

Not only that, but we’ve won games I picked us to lose, and we lost games I thought we’d win, so I’m no genuis. But I BELIEVE, baby!!! This is our DAY IN THE SUN!!!

You have to play this game like somebody just hit your mother with a two-by-four.
