The Dolphins Make Me Cry.com - Forums

1) When is the best time to call a trick play?   Yes, the fake punt worked, but their chances of winning the game were pretty low at that point anyway.  Wouldn't be better to call it when there is greater chance of winning the game?

2) Miami's chances will become a lot clearer next week.  It's going to be extremely difficult to make the playoffs as it is, but if the Bengals win next week, it will really cripple their chances.  The Titans are now a wild card contender, but Miami does hold the tiebreaker against them. 

3) That game was not nearly as much a blowout as the score suggests.  The first half was evenly matched.  This is where Captain Hindsight comes in.  Did Gase need to take more chances in the red zone and be more aggressive?  At some point did he have to say, "We need touchdowns, we need to gamble on fourth down."  This was the single biggest reason for the Packer victory.

4) No excuse for Osweiler not recovering that fumble.  Changed the course of the game. 

You need to be more realistic. The Dolphins chances of making the playoffs before the game were very slim and not really much has changed. GB was favored by 10 points which tells you their chances in GB were slim to begin with. Most of their remaining games are either on the road or against better opponents.

Patriots
At Vikings

Where do you even see 3 wins there? If they finish 8-8 they will have pulled their shit together. Win 4 of those games? Please you are dreaming.

Tannehill will be back and hopefully healthy. 9-7 is doable, 10-6 will be difficult.

^ I'd say add one win to that . Dolphins usually beat the Patsies in Mami.

I can only agree with the Win vs Bills and Win vs Jags predictions and that one is a bit shaky in my opinion since you never know if Jax will show up or not. Miami has won one game on the road this year against the Jets. They might win at the Bills and at Indy, but I wouldn't predict it unless things completely turnaround on the injury front. Basically anyone who's not on IR now needs to be healthy in that Colts game and then it's only a 50-50 game. Same with Jax.

I'd say it's more like about 50% of the time not usually and since Miami won last year, I'd say the odds are against it this year.
