As of March 15, have the Dolphins caught the Pats?
 

If the season started tomorrow, I think the Patriots would be a step behind Miami. Culpepper is injured and a lot depends on him, but with what Miami has done coupled with what Belichick hasn't done, have the Fins made the AFC East a two horse race? Are they ahead right now?

Pretty hard to say until the season rolls around. All of the talent in the world means nothing when you don't have someone to steer the ship. Ask the Redskins. Have the Dolphins made more FA moves than us? Yes. Does that mean they are automatically better than us? No. If we played today, I have no doubt Miami would stomp us though. I mean we have one good WR on our entire roster.

No.

My friend is a huge Fins fan and is freaking out b/c their D has become so much weaker. I happily do not disagree with him.

Anyway, still way too early to tell.

No. I think Miami was quite overrated at the end of last season, their win streak was against the dregs of the league - other than SD and talk was that Miami's OL coach gave Miami all of SD's audibles as he was in SD the year before.

Let's see Culpepper 1) be healthy and 2) be as effective as he was in 2004 before I'm the least big concerned.

Damn. Spring Football and starting on a Wednesday now. :eek:

yes
 

Yes. The dolphins will pummel the pats both games this season.

The Dolphins will finish 1st, the Pats 4th in the AFC east.

The redskins will win the super bowl by beating the Browns.

Culpepper will be the MVP and throw for 6,000 yards.

David Givens will start for the AFC in the Pro Bowl.

AV will kick multiple gamewinners against the pats this year while breaking the single-season scoring record.

McGinist, Tom Ashworth, and Stephen Neal will carry the Jets to the playoffs.

BB will be exposed for the horrible coach he is and Pioli and Kraft will drive the Pats to bankruptcy.

There you are BF.

I thought we didn't start til Sunday. :eek: :eek:

I signed Flutie to an emergency one year contract, but dropkicking these kickoffs is not working. :mad:

Are all these people with <10 posts the same person?

Maybe multiple personalities? But then they'd be saying different things instead of posts that are almost the same.

Since there aren't any colonel or captain clams, I don't have any clues. :D

Oh I don't know. Tommy is a lot further along in his abdominal rehab and he plays well in pain. Our OC is entering his second (first official) year in the same offense we've had since 2001. We're a little thin at WR but we have two very nice TE's. Hopefully our 3 RB are healthy while Miami's 1B is back on suspension. We're geting a lot of Superbowl winning starters due back from an injury riddled season where we still went 10-6 (and could have gone 11-5 if we needed to). We have no kicker at the moment while Miami's is merely pissed. New OC and offense, new DC, new QB who was Saban's third or fourth choice and went begging for a 2nd round draft pick. That's a lot of folks to get on the same page with a lot of other folks who underwent a culture change of sorts last season.

I still like our chances. If they end up flipping Mare for Vanderjerk I like them even more. :D

Who have the Dolphins lost as FA's? They are in a good position to challenge us for the division, but its too early to say they are as good or better then us. They have made thier moves and now we have to wait and see what the Patriots do. There is way too much negatives (Givens, McGinest, Adam, Neal) to talk comparison.
