This is a moderated phorum for the CIVILIZED discussion of the Miami Dolphins. In this phorum, there are rules and moderators to make sure you abide by the rules. The moderators for this phorum are JC and Colonel.
I thought before any games are played, it would be fun to make some predictions about the upcoming season. Once the season is over i'll bump the thread and we can see who has the best crystal ball!
The questions are listed below in numbered list form, so in your responses, try to list your answers in the same format for easy reading.
1) Miami Dolphins regular session record?
2) Does Miami make the playoffs? If so, how far do they go?
1) 10-6
2) Yes, we lose in the divisional round.
3) Wallace (my gut says he gets 10 plus tds)
4) Miami, N.E., Buffalo, New York
5) San Francisco, I think they miss the playoffs
6) Giants vs Denver, Denver by 7
#1 10-6 (maybe 11-5 if we can beat the pats once)
#2 Lose in the Wildcard Round
#3 Tannehill. If he's not, we aren't making the playoffs.
#4 NE (11-5), Miami (10-6), Buffalo (8-8), Jets (3-13)
#5 Miami Dolphins
#6 Seattle and Denver. Seattle wins.
9 - 7, Too many new faces. Offense doesn't gel until the 2nd half of the season.
Miss the play-offs
Wake
Past - Mia. - Bills - Jest.
Detroit
Denver vs SanFran,,,,,,49ers win.
What the heck I will merge TOKO's annual Crystal Ball Posting into this one. The Crystal Ball has been eerily accurate for the last 4 seasons in terms of predicting the record of the Miami Dolphins..this year's vision will make the fans really happy.
1. 11-5 !!!
W at Browns (superior coaching and superior roster)
W at Colts (revenge mode + superior roster)
L vs.Falcons (don't get too confident)
L at Saints (They win in the final moments)
W vs.Ravens (extra motivation against defending champ)
BYE
W vs.Bills (bye week prep)
W at Patriots(surprise!!)
L vs.Bengals (short week)
W at Bucs (No Challenge)
W vs.Chargers (West Coast Team playing at 1pm)
L vs.Panthers (sloppy, looking ahead to Jest Game)
W at Jest (Ryan is canned)
W at Steelers (Wallace motivates)
L vs. Pats (BB always squeaks wins out of these late season games)
W at Bills (It is close)
W vs. Jests (2nd Stringers destroy Jests)
2. SUPER BOWL!
3. Tanny
4. Dolphins, Patsies, Bills, Jests
5. Miami Dolphins
6. Dolphins vs. Packers (Dolphins!)

This ^^^
I can feel the vibe...Positive vibrations mon!
As a bonus I'll predict that:
1) Joe Philbin will establish himself as the Zen Master of football coaching (What Phil Jackson is to coaching basketball).
2) Ryan Tannehill will prove that he truly is a franchise QB.
3) Heath Shuler won't be on NFL Network next season.
the 2 hardest parts of these question are the Dolphins and patriots... Both are completely unpredictable... You would think the Patriots are in decline, but we have also been waiting for that for quite a while... You would think the Dolphins are set to step up, but also something we have been waiting for, for quite a while... At this point I have no idea... I need to see some practice and some preseason games to at least give me some insight to how all these new players gel together before I can give a better prediction. At this point anything I would predict about our team would be nothing more then an uneducated guess... In my heart I always feel like this is our year! But my heart hasn't been too accurate the last decade or so, so I will avoid embarrassing myself at this point...

That's kind of the point. Going off of strictly off season information, I wanted to see who could come closest to predicting the outcome of the season. Give it a whirl!

1) 10-6
2) win a WC game and lose the next.
3) Ryan Tannehill
4) NE, Mia (tiebreaker to NE) Buf, NY
5) Mia, AZ and KC
6) GB over Houston

LOL. Well, let me settle for my wants. 12-4, make the playoffs, win the AFC Championship and the Super Bowl is a tossup.
