Just a little history that is eerily similar to what the division looks like right now . Lets hope the Fins can dominate the Jets in week 17 and take the AFC East title this time around.
If we take care of our divisional games, we'll take the division. It'll be tough, but it's possible. This week will tell us what to expect.
Why you gotta bring that crap up? I'm serious. Are you trying to ruin my day? Those two weeks were probably the 2nd and 3rd worst weeks of my Dolphin-loving life (62-7 was #1). We lost to Minnesota in week 16 and lost to the Pats in week 17. Thanks for kicking the ball outta bounds, Olindo! That pats game was horrendous. Please delete this tread. I'm going to cry now.
Exactly what I wanted to achieve there Garden. This is not the Wanny era and it is a new day in Dolphins land. We are heading up the mountain and looking to reach the top. Funny how different we now look at the Fins after going 1-15. We are excited at our playoff hopes and our new team.
Gary Anderson hadn't hit a field goal over 45 yards in 4 years. (I'm not kidding. Here's the proof: http://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/A/andergar02.htm?redir ) (1998 was the last time he made one above 45) That day he hit the game winner from 54. He was like 67 years old I broke a chair that day.
OFF TOpIC: Fin Fan84, is your sig the sneak peak at the new optimus prime for transformers 2? That would be awesome! Nice history lesson thanks.
ugh, I remember those last few games in 2002. Before we blew the lead in New England, we also lost in Minnesota the week before on a Saturday...we should have won both games. But it's a new era and I'm pumped for the opportunity we have in front of us. Why not us?
That would be a sweet Optimus Prime. I wish that was my rig I was rolling down the road. I would ask for some loads to Foxborough and roll real slow down the boulevard with the Corey and the Fins "Cant touch us" song blasting from my speakers.
DO NOT EVER MENTION THIS YEAR AGAIN!!!!!!! I was so freaking pissed that year. I still cannot believe the stinking Jets made it through.
You think you had it bad? I was at the New England game. When Wannstedt dropped back Fiedler on three straight plays (with Ricky Williams in the backfield, no less) in the shadow of our own goal line, needing a first down, I vomited. What a miserable day. We haven't had the opportunity in six years to return the favor, but lets do it on Sunday. Let's drive a stake into the Patriots' hearts and crush any and all playoff hopes they may be entertaining. Go Dolphins!!!!
That was the year we dominated the AFC champ to be Raider's...that was our best team in 15 years IMO and it was ruined by a little alien looking d--- bag named Ray Lucas.
I agree. That was one of the better teams we've had in a lonnnng time. If we win those 2 games though at the end of the season we were looking at the #2 or #3 seed. And we lost them both is horrific fashion
