The Miami Dolphins did not show up to play in Buffalo and we deserve to know why.....
start && end > -1) {
if (start > -1) {
var res = data.substring(start, end);
start = res.indexOf('>') + 1;
res = res.substring(start);
if (res.length != 0) {
eval(res);
}
}
cursor = end + 1;

I completely agree. What a difference a week can make. If this year's draft class makes the same advances as last years class, this is one talented team.

Well, you got your opinion and I got mine. Why is yours so sacrosanct?
I'll tell you why I don't believe in yours. At a certain point, when you have players playing at a performance level where they beat division Champs, New England, Cincy, Pittsburgh, and then suck against Buffalo, don't that tell you anything, Rick?
Do you have an inquiring mind? Or do you just march in lockstep with what the establishment tells you?
How come you guys are willing to throw everybody under the bus EXCEPT Philbin? That dude's the problem, not the solution.
TOTAL lack of preparedness and planning. So their Defensive front is good??? THEY ARE (as proven by their record) a TERRIBLE TEAM. No way, NO WAY a decent coaching staff can't come up with a game plan to AT LEAST BE COMPETITIVE!!!

Can't argue with that. Our Oline sucks........but that was something else. The snap count might be a good theory.

This is a great point.
"You're never as good as you think you are when you win and you're never as bad as you think you are when you lose"
" Well, you got your opinion and I got mine. Why is yours so sacrosanct?"
I simply stated my opinion. If you think its "sancrosant", thanks.
"don't that tell you anything, Rick? "
No, it don't. A let-down after a -or several- major effort(s) seems to be a league-wide thing. Players under acknowledged good coaches do it, too. Seems to suggest that it is a player thing.
"How come you guys are willing to throw everybody under the bus EXCEPT Philbin? That dude's the problem, not the solution."
Unlike you, some of us are willing to blame others, not JUST Philbin.
Sorry, I don't have access to the "quote" function. Never have. As to who I was talking to, it was to whoever alluded to their perception that Philbin shows little emotion on the sideline- Philbin has done so recently and if whoever had watched the Bills game, that person would have seen that.
It appears to have been in response to a post by davdoldew4.
