Hey Volk, 69 500, How 'bout them Dolphins?

[TheGhost]

One helluva comeback, wasn't it?  Great game.

Oh, and to all you Bill's fans out there.....

HAHA!

[69_500]

Yeah it was nice comeback. My only question was, with 1:06 left in the game and 1st and goal at the 1 yard line. Why don't you RUN THE BALL IN. Yes they came back and won, but why did they abandon the RUNNING game so early. I think Ronnie Brown only wound up with like 7 carries, and Rickey had like 11. They should be giving those guys both about 15 carries a game, and controling the clock.

That was incredible   I didn't think it was possible without Marino at the helm.  The funny thing was, I was so disgusted by the first half that I almost turned it off...something I have never done with a Dolphins game.  I swear, they played like a JV squad through the first half and most of the third 1/4.  I paused it on my Tivo and came back to it (I am a glutten for punishment) only to see Gus get knocked out.  I believe I let out an audible groan when Sage came in...boy was I wrong!  What an awesome comeback.  Chris Chambers had over 230 yards receiving 

They better not open the game that poorly next week, or San Diego is just going to dominate them.  I bet they run LT to the edge on Sam Madison's side of the D all day...he hates to tackle...and yes, they need to run Ronnie and Ricky more...Ronnie is the 8th leading rusher in the NFL with 4.7 yards per carry and Ricky's average is almost as high.

I am absolutely disgusted with the Bills.

After watching that game, I do not think I will be able to root for the bills anymore, let alone watch them.

-one angry bills fan

[volk68]

Normally I hate all Bill's fans equally, but since you are a charger devotee, I will make an exception   If it's any consolation, I know how you feel.  I felt that way after the Monday night miracle when the Jet's did the same thing to us.  I felt that way when the Browns shut the 'Fins out two weeks ago.  It's rough being a diehard fan

[hemi68charger]

You mean the 'Fins won!!!???

Good goggly goo..............  I was so wrapped up in my Longhorns I was totally disinterested in my 'Fins.....  Go figure...

Because Saban is an idiot, and likes to complicate things.

[Steve P.]

You don't think the Bills layed down after the first 1/4 do ya??   21 - ZERO

The Bills did just as they have been doing all year. Come out hard and lay down wet... I haven't been very happy with them all year..

Now the Bucs on the other hand. Hehehehehehe..............  On the road!!!!!

And how about Dungy and his mob of monsters???  12&0

[69_500]

Wow and here all this time I never knew that Troy was a Dolphins fan too.


I still don't think the Colts will run the table. It would make for an interesting story, but I don't see them doing it. I think they will be 15-1 entering the playoffs. And if they have to play the Bengals again  this year, I say watch out.

[Steve P.]

Come on, 12 and ((((((  0  )))))))   DOES IT REALLLLLLY MATTTTTERRRRRRRRRRR????????

Me???  I was wheened on Don Shula.. I remember my Dad yelling and screaming during the '70-'74 seasons.. I remember going to games and seeing the "No name Defense", Larry Csonka, Paul Warfield, Bob Griese and all those dudes... Hopefully that doesn't date me........  I may not live and breath them as much as I used to since I don't live in South Florida any more, but, in the spirit of a true fan, they're my team through thick and thin......

I don't know.  If they don't lose this week, I think they'll pull it off.

[69_500]

Steve are you asking if 12-0 means anything? No it really doesn't. To me once you get to a 12-0 or something like that your season is just starting. Now it is required for that team to WIN the Super Bowl, not just get to the Super Bowl but win it. I mean how much of a let down would it be to go 16-0 and then get beat in the playoffs or SuperBowl.

[69_500]

Oh and Troy, yeah hearing you talk about being around for the 70-74 seasons definately dates you. I wasn't born until 78. 

[Afflyer]

Oh and Troy, yeah hearing you talk about being around for the 70-74 seasons definately dates you. I wasn't born until 78.  

Well THAT explains a lot 69 500!

[Steve P.]

So I guess being 12 & 0 just means you suck!  Making it to the big game also means you suck!!

You are only worth a polished turd if you are the winner of the ring, RIGHT?? 

[69_500]

I never said being 12-0 sucks. Never said that if they don't win the SuperBowl would make them suck. All I was saying is that it would tarnish the excitment around going 16-0 if they lost in the SuperBowl then.

But to be quite frank yeah Winning the Superbowl is what makes everyone notice a team. That is true. How many people noticed the 84 Dolphins when they went 12-0 to start the season, finsihed it 15-1 I believe but lost to the 49ers in the SuperBowl that year?


And me being born in 1978 explains what? Explains that I cheer for a team that hasn't ever won a Championhip in my lifetime. Yeah i"ll admit it, that is dissapointing, but then again I love my teams. Love the Dolphins in football and the Mariners in baseball. Started cheering for both at the same age, and not a single one of them had produced a Championship for me. As a matter of fact very few times in my childhood did the Mariners win more than 60-70 games. But I'll stick with my teams.

[Steve P.]

Born in 78' isn't a bad thing.. Nor is 12 & 0!  The Bills went to the big game about 4 times in a row and never won. That doesn't make them SUCK. It  IS just DISAPPOINTING!!!!!!

I was born in 61' and have been a BILLS fan since I can remember. However, I have been pissed at the management ever since they screwed Flutie 4 or 5 seasons ago.. They have not been able to get their collective heads out of their asses ever since.. (What comes around), ya know!!

I have lived in Florida for about 12 years now and for about 8 of them I've been rooting for Tampa.. I am a Dungy fan..

Never did like the FISH...........     SQUISH THE FISH...................

[TheGhost]

Bump.


Hey Volk, I TOLD you we would pull out the upset against the Chargers.

[Big Lebowski]

Chargers didn't want it bad enough, oh well.

[nh_mopar_fan]

Two games back of the Pats and all but eliminated.

Next year, they're going to be better, for sure.

Man, does Buffalo suck or what? The supposed "best runningback in the league" McGahee was out-rushed by Tom Brady on Sunday.

What a marroon.

[Steve P.]

I hear you NH,,, but what about them BUCS?? ?? ?? ?? ??    They were sure bet out to be the ten to one under dog.... Vegas lost a pile of green stamps on that game.   

Da' Bills need some Viagra....

[41husk]

In our sociaty fans remember two teams, theres and the one that wins it all, only one if there team wins it all.

[472 R/T SE]

Alright by me.  Thank you Fins.  It would have been nice if my team could have capitalized by the Chargers losing, but they decided to lose too.

[69_500]

Man and for one week in the fatasy league i didn't pick the Dolphins to pull out the upset victory and they do it. In another league i'm in, where you pick against the spread I picked them to cover so at least I wasn't completely off. Still confused as to why they don't RUN the ball. Then again what did they have 34 offensive plays this week? To San Diego's 70+ plays?
