It's easy, and only takes a few moments.A dolphins win helps the Patriots in two ways - A) it's a step towards having the #1 overall pick in the draft and B) it's a step toward securing HFA throughout the playoffs no matter how much of a given that seems to be now.
A dolphins loss does nothing to help the team. As a fan it's hard to not wish for them to go 0-16 though, just because of the shame it would bring down on an AFC east rival.
Still at this point I'll be rooting for the Dolphins.
A lot of people here need to watch John Beck and listen to Jaws when he speaks of him. I don't think there is a poster here that respects Beck and that's ludicrous. Also, need to watch Ginn and see just how far he's come as a wide receiver. All of his catches last week were over the middle where he supposedly couldn't go according to most.
I don't have respect or lack of...I admit, I haven't followed the Phin's too closely this year. I'll take your loyal Dolphin fan word for it though.
Fair enough, check out the game on Monday and you'll see what I'm talking about. Ginn has been open ALL year and watching Cleo Lemon underthrow him was as painful as sliding down a razor blade into a pool of lemon juice.
I know the Dolphins really don't stand a chance, but who do you want to see win Monday night. I always stand behind the theory that anything can happen (who figured the Jets would beat the Steelers). In a sick kind of way, I hope Miami beats the Steelers.

Smoke:
As a Pats fan, you ABSOLUTELY should be rooting for the Dolphins.
Why?
Pats fans want the 49ers to have the worst record in the league so we get the #1 overall pick in the 2008 draft (San Frans' traded to New England)
I think we need to be a little careful what we wish for. Due to the rookie salary structure, the number 1 pick in the draft is not all its cracked up to be. Look at last year. Oakland had to shell out a 30 million dollar signing bonus to JaMarcus Russell. Look at the money that San Fran is paying Alex Smith. The amount of money that teams have to shell out, diminishes the value of this pick and there is no garauntee there will be other teams eager to trade up. I don't think there is any rookie in the draft that the Patriots orgainization is willing to pay that kind of money to.
What's Beck's MO? Does he make all the throws with the big arm, or is he more known for good vision and reading of defenses?
Is he a scrambler or pure pocket guy?
He's good at everything and carries an exceptional arm and even better accuracy. He surprised me with his mobilty last week and disapointed me a little on his ability to make throws under duress. All and all, he'll be just fine.
