I love the Miami fans who come out of the woodwork when they actually win a game. Not everybody thought this game was going to be a cake walk and I'm one of them. I don't think any game is a cakewalk when Dick Jauron is your HC.

Great gameplan from the Fins D coordinator. Edwards was visibly confused all game long. I've never seen him hold the ball like that and force it into coverage like that before. The Bills needed to establish and stick with the running game against that defense and instead they went away from it after they fell behind 17-16. It bit them big time.

Anyway, props to the Fins fans. Good win for your guys.

The fact is that the game sucked.

Miami, though, declaring it a "sellout," on Wednesday, had nowhere near a sellout.

I think the stadium was 33% empty during the fourth quarter.

The Bills were horrible, and the Dolphins are terrible.

Neither team is anywhere near being really good, but at leat we sell out.

Really? Ronnie Brown and Ricky Williams have had some great lanes to run through, plus, their protection can't be that bad if they can manage to protect Pennington long enough for Ginn to get 30 yards down the field. They've really done well with Pennington behind center, let's be honest, Miami doesn't have a bad team.

I understand that, but any thought of Miami winning the division is ridiculous. I'm not talking trash, I'm being honest. They run a gadget play on offense because they aren't good enough to lineup and beat somebody...that is the only reason teams run gadget plays. They will be respectable, but they are nowhere near good enough to make the playoffs. The Bills seriously laid a big egg today, otherwise the Fins would be 2-5.

Also at the start of the year Ginn was not back there as a kick returner which was a major error IMO.... Overall though I think he has done pretty well when you consider we were a 1-15 team last year and so far have gotten 3 this year. Thats a 300% improvement.

That's a point that I didn't even bring up...but is a good one. Why the hell don't they give the ball to Brown more??? Get over the Rickey experiment...he's done. Put Brown in and give him the rock...he's a much better RB then Williams.

Like LT, I've been here for a while and if you check the last some years worth of Miami/Buffalo matchups, I've always been here and given Buffalo props (and there has been a lot of those times due to sweeps.) The thing that really sucks is that my power went out and I couldn't watch the game and I have the Ticket. Loss or not, it's funny how immature some people can be, but oh well. Hopefully this is the game where Ginn can turn the page and throw away the threat of the bust label. To those that are showing their maturity, thanks.

But Ronnie is a better back in every way and he ends the game with 15 touches?

Though some pointed out that you guys were stacking 8 and even 9 in the box at some times so part of it may have been simply because we were forced to go to the air because of the D.

We feel your pain Bro...
Remember ...we flew to London last year, and forfieted a home game.
Not that it mattered much considering the season we had, but still.

There were a few moments when I though you guys would pull it off, the Bills have a way of doing that against us. The ball bounced our way this time. If not for some breaks, it could have gone the other way.
It's always a hard fought game between our teams, and today was no exception.

I'll savor the win today, but I also know the division is probably yours this season. I'm just glad it's not the Patsies or even worse... the Jests...

Also, thanks for the respectable intelligent posts at ThePhins.com ... we hope those that stopped by this week end up staying a while... and you're all welcome to stop by...

Oh ... and for the guy who will undoubtedly say I "came out of the woodwork" today... check my jion date, and keep in mind that I was unable to login for about 3 years here (not sure why), until Shelby hooked me up last night.

i know this loss hurt, but when we have Fin fans being gracious, it is mature (not to mention common courtesy) to respond in kind. These guys have been here all week and have not talked any smack. Lt, Jaydog, and Papa post here quite a bit throughout the year. Don't take your frustration out on the opponent's fans, guys.

One of life's most valuable lessons is how to lose gracefully. It's called good sportsmanship.Thank you Shelby. I appreciate the help this week with getting me on your site.

Good game this week disappointed with the loss but it was a tough close game where you guys got all the bounces.

Good luck the rest of the way except in Toronto.

Good Game guys, I for one picked you guys to win, but that's why they play the game. I didn't think our secondary or our receivers could do anything against you....I now have to go write an apology letter to Ted Ginn fro doubting him....Good luck in toronto.

No bitterness.

Reality.
The game was terrible and it is preposterous to claim it was a sellout.How so? The tickets were sold....actually attendance might not be considered a sellout though(clearly)

I have no idea how many tickets they sell there in order to call it a sellout or lift the blackout, but Miami consistently looks like the emptiest "sellout" venue in the NFL.

I was down there in a Miami Beach hotel when they announced the game was a "sellout" on Wednesday, and I was listening to the local sports radio station.

They were laughing about it and claimed the sellout was bogus, and that wasn't the first time.

Either the Dolphin fans like to buy tickets and not show up in record numbers, or there is some funny math going on.

Wayne .H buys any leftover tickets, so the game will be on tv.

Whatever man. No one was acting like this was going to be a blow out.

Actually, you were, you posted a thread about it.

A great post Shelby!

Congrats Phin fans and especially Lt. I give you lots of crap but am not too proud to give you and your team props when they win. I felt like someone kicked me in the stomach yesterday as I take losses to the Phins harder than others. People need to chill, clearly the Dolphins are better than most are willing to admit, they have beaten three solid teams this year and are on the rise.

Doesn't this irk you? I would be annoyed as hell if I could see empty seats in the stadium every week. Buffalo hasn't been in the playoffs in what seems like forever, and yet, we still pack the stands and support our team. Miami has one really bad year (though the empty seats are really a recurring theme) and they have no real support - in such a large city???

You'll have a shot at us again in Toronto, good luck, beat the Jets and Pats.

Absolutely.

There was a camera shot of the stands, (unintentionally because the networks and the NFL don't like to show these things), with about seven minutes left, game clearly on the line, and it looked like someone announced that the stands had been dusted with anthrax.

The strident nature of the Dolphin posters on this site is, in no way, backed up by what occurs there every home game.

My son and I drove down for the opener and the entire trip ran close to a grand and I can't afford that more than once in a year
