Now we just need the Dolphins to beat the Broncos.

Can't they both just loose? I can't bring myself to root for either. A 0-0 tie would appease me.

To be fair, Blount is simply better than Gray. I like them both, but Blount is just more talented.

Oh I agree completely but still the balls on Belichick are simply unparalleled by any other coach, I mean Gray was on the cover of SI this week and Belichick just sat him down like he was nothing and I think he would have done it whether Blount was here or not. He used Bolden on a couple plays he was intent on sitting Gray, which sends a message to everyone that you do your job or you will be replaced. I love it.

I think Lafell was just a stinger. I think he'll be alright

Slopiness on offense second half but defense was red hot great win toughest test of the season next week

Incredible performance.

We could have dropped 50 on them. They took the foot off the gas.

 

[Haley]

34 points against the (another) number one D! Nice win!

Refs put their foot ON the gas

Blount runs a little high for my taste, although he is a terror against a tired defense. Id luke to see more of Gray.

P.s.
Go phins!

I'm not nearly as confident in the dolphins ability to beat the broncos

Fun and pointless stat of the game:

Eric Ebron, #10 overall pick: 2 rec, 23 yds

Tim Wright: 5 rec, 36 yds, 2 tds

Feels like we left a few points out there….especially the INT.

Even though they are both big, they are different types of runners. Gray is better short yardage, blount is better against a tired defense with a good hole. we should use them both, Gray in the 1st, Blount in the 2nd, with the occasional Vereen run. Life is good.

Even without those, we looked pretty good considering it was the number one run and number five pass d. I'll take it!

I agree, but I think the pats do a generally good job of coaching that out of him. He improved on that over the course of last year, then reverted this year in Pittsburgh.

 

[Patjew]

Is he walking on his shoulder?

Right. That arm was hanging in a not so nice way.

I'm just going to enjoy the game and figure that any outcome works for us. Would rather the Dolphins win, but getting another game up in the division is good too, when we're already 2 up on the Broncos

34 against the best defense in the league
