I hate being the favorites. :(
 
Or a dolphins fans, the past few years until now they have been predicting good stuff from them. The sporting networks have learned their lesson (somewhat).

I like it!!! Line 'em up and let Belichick and the Boys knock 'em down. I want us to run on them, pass on them, sack them, tackle them and intimidate them.

I'd like to see us dominate the opposition like the Dallas, Steelers and 49ers dynasties did. "Here it comes, now try to stop us".

I want the pressure on, expectations high and failure out of the question.

When was the last time 2 teams won 14 games and both in the same conference?
Not likely,If anyone is going to win 14 games its either NE or SD...Not both,no chance

Cowboys 13-3? - With Wade 'BUM' Philips as coach? - What are they smoking?

big discrepancy between the two predicted records of the Cowboys.
9-7 versus 13-3. I'll go with ten wins. that'll give them a first round bye in the nfc.

To me I think the teams with a first round bye in the NFC are New Orleans and Arizona....Yes I said Arizona ,although we have thought this many years before that they were going to be good but failed I think its time,Its all in place for them..At least offesively it is.
 
The Dolphins record is off.
They'll have at least 7 wins.

also, the Steelers will have 10 wins.


write this down.

Ummm . . . I seem to remember the Pats finishing with a 14-2 record and the number 2 seed in the playoffs a couple of years back. . . .

Yes,That was 1 YEAR ...Not a common thing though,it does not happen usually more than once every decade.
 
The only way the Dolphins go 5-11 is if Trent Green and Jason Taylor miss a bunch of games.
 
...and that could very well happen...

Sure is a possibilty, but I think every team faces that possibilty. If Tom Brady goes down, the Pats will be around 7 or 8 wins most likely. Great teams can over come short term injuries, but there's no way around season ending injuries to big time stars.
 
These predictions seem to show a step back for the Jests whose fans seem to think they will contend for a championship this year.

We'll see. I hate opening games and I really hate opening games againts a division team on the road.

Sporting News predicts a Patriot SB victory over the Cowboys while PFW predicts a Patriots SB victory over the Saints.

I think PFW looks much more accurate than SN. Cowboys at 13-3??? For the record, if the Patriots are 14-2, what are the odds that Dallas goes 13-3, SD 14-2 and Indy 14-2? I dont know, seems unlikely to me.
 
The only way the Dolphins go 5-11 is if Trent Green and Jason Taylor miss a bunch of games.

Does Green and Taylor play defensive back or on the O-line? 5-11 sounds about right for the hapless Fins.
 
Last year the Fins won 6 games. They added Trent Green. If Green stays healthy, there is no way they win less than 6 games.
