    Top 10 still shows were getting respect, so I wish the grumpy fans would recognize the fact that this team is good.



    I love the line about the 18th ranked Phins.

    The Dolphins should be 17, imo.

    I have to admit I was shocked to see us still in the top-10, and ahead of the Patriots. It must be killing ESPN.

    I'm not sure the Ravens should be as low as they are, but really, I find this week's rankings really hard to dispute.

    Fox has us 8th, not that it means anything just nice to know it's not all homerism.

    From Fox Sports-
    On the Dolphins
    "THE BRIGHT SIDE: They have survived their second straight early-season panic attack, and again have the wildcat offense to thank for returning to relevance. Other teams may copy Miami's approach, but thus far no one has come close to matching the Dolphins' productivity out of the "gimmick" offense"

    No other team has the running attack and the practice to pull off the wild cat like the dolphins can.

    It's possible to be upset about the loss and still think the team is good. In fact, it's because I think this is a good team that the loss was particularly painful.

    And since when did power rankings mean anything? When they have the Jets ranked low it's because they don't know what they're talking about. When they have them in the top 10 it's because we're a good team and getting respect. It doesn't add up.

    Were still a really good team, we just have to put all the phases together, if offense defense and special teams play well, we can pretty much stand toe to toe with any of the elite teams in the NFL but all phases of our team must produce and play well, we honestly should be really happy were in this predicament with the running game being somewhat shitty were still 3-2 thank God for Sanchez for putting us in winning situations on offense and also the defense, shit happens where the D doesn't show up but we all know they won't shit the bed all the time like against the Phins

    I understand, I was more talking about the people saying oh this team sucks it's going to be a 5 win season.

    Just saying it's nice to see were still getting respect besides from our own fan base.

    If they put us at 18, I would've been pissed and complained about disrespect.

    I was just posting for the power rankings which are meaningless but thanks for your input.

    What? You are shocked at the rankings and still saying you find it hard to dispute? Why the shock then?

    As for us being ahead of the Shitriots, we have played better than them. We beat them as well. We are a better team than the Patriots are as of right now. Yeah we lost to the Dolphags, but they are a better team than the 2-3 records suggests IMO. We were basically two plays away from beating the Saints (14 pts given up by the offense). So yeah, we are a better team than our record suggests as well.

    I agree you guys are a good team but to be ranked top 10 after Rex Ryan's "stellar defense" let up 31 points? IMO you should be 12 or 13 behind New England, Pittsburgh, and Baltimore.

    Technically, we were two plays away from a tie.

    fuck that. the dolphins are 2-3 we're 3-2. i hate hearing that teams are better than their record says. we were saying the titans were better than their 0-3 record to try and justisfy why we struggled to beat them. now they're 0-5.

    I said I was shocked that the Jets were ranked where they were, and that I can't dispute any of the rankings.

    How does your reply make any sense?

    I understood what you were saying, Alio.
    The rankings are pretty fair and make sense, you were just shocked that the media "experts" didn't jump the gun and drop the Jets way down.

    Not difficult to comprehend.:beer:

    if we lose to the bills at home i'll probably end up kicking the shit out of random people. young, old, babies, it wouldn't matter.

    I'm inviting some handicapped people over for the game, and sitting them near me in "kickin' range"...just in case.

    Sounds good to me-

    I think this team is good, so do some outsiders.

    It's not god damn rocket surgery....
