    Time 1pm

    place The Ralph

    Weather: Buffalo, late December, 25 degrees, maybe 35, snow early in the day expected to clear by gm time

    Announcers: Steve Tasker and someone, heck I never listen anyway

    Broadcast map: http://the506.com/nflmaps/2011/wk15.html

    Story lines:

    Bills got off to a fast start, but have slumped to 5 straight losses, could be 6.

    Dolphins fired HC Sparano, and Todd Bowles is taking over as the temp guy, 2nd time in Dolphins history a coach did not make it through the season and the first time a minority has been the Dolphins HC.

    Reggie Bush is on the cusp of a 1k season, he sits 277 yds behind that mark, Brandon Marshall is about to top 1k yds as well, the first Wr to do that in back to back seasons since...Irving Fryer (?)

    Matt Moore is expected to start, no word on Big Jake who has a back injury.

    The other angle is conflicting interests, with no playoffs in our future, a win effectively harms our Draft position with the Browns likely to lose their last 2 gms, then again, Miami finishing last in the AFCE is not a pleasant vista either.

    Funny isn't it, 3 games left and instead of just being interested in the game, there are other factors that seem to have as much importance.

    Something no one mentioned, what if Bowles wins out, including in Foxboro? That is a good case for being HC in 2012..or could be.

    Reggie Bush: 770 yds rushing yds
    Brandon Marshall: 937 receiving yds
    Clyde Gates: 675 yd in returns

    Just something to keep an eye on, would suspect Marshall tops 1k yds today.

    Hyde explains that of the 4 or 5 win teams, only the Bucs have faced a stronger schedule, meaning unless we lose out, we go to the end of the line, literally from #7 to #12 or so.

    This is the Dolphins, no franchise disappoints their fans more then this one does, we will 2 more games.

    Sadly, no.

    I want to finish 3rd, but want the best draft position we can have, the only way to iron that out is to play the gms and see what happens.

    Dolphins are 11 sacks away from setting the all time sacks allowed record...pathetic really, and imo, why Sparano earned his pink slip.

    He should not be allowed to leave Davie without his name on a contract...even if we have to go Vito Corleone on him

    Your signature will be on this contract, or your brains will be, your choice

    Not that it matters for me, but they're showing the Bengals/Rams here in the Triad (Charlotte too). I would think people would rather watch a divisional game.

    Dolphins win toss and defer.

    SChottie Jr being rumoured strongly as in our HC mix.

    Over/Under for total sacks by both teams is 4.

    Let's just say I've got some money on the over.
