    Tua Tagovailoa is 5-0 vs Bill Belichick. It's a good year to be a Dol-Fan.

    Well aside from being 2-0 and currently leading the AFC East; the Dolphins haven't won a first round playoff game since the year 2000.
    It's our year :D I have good feeling about this one.

    Well, I was around when they went 1-15 back in 1990 so this doesnt seem quite so awful.

    That being said, I really would like to see more out of the offense.

    George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.

    I turned off the game at half time, but I couldn't turn away. Lol. I followed a long until the end.

    If your team is boring but wins...great. if your team is exciting, and promising, but loses...ok. boring and loses? 🤬

    I knew we would struggle through the beginning of the year, but what is hard to take is that our roster seems to really have been mismanaged. Our GM is not nearly as good as our coach. And our coach...seems to make poor decisions also. I feel like he leaves points out there too much, goes for it at the wrong times, and lacks aggression too. Why punt from your opponents 40?

    Gee I thought it was the Red Sox that had all the bad management!
    At least my pain for the year is almost over and it's the patriots fans that are feeling it now.
    I can hardly wait for the World Series to be over so we can see if the Sox can find some pitching for next year.

    It is like when Jordan retired from the Bulls I just could not for the love of me ever watch them again on a regular basis. I actually gave up on the NBA and never came back. I have never given up on the NHL or NFL and would not even if my teams would suck bad.

    Without Brady it is just not the same and will most likely never be like that again in our lives. He was the best ever and even if a better player comes along what are the chances he lands on that same team.

    2001-2019 Tom Brady took the patriots to the post season 17 times only failing to make the post season in 2002 and 2008. A lot of patriot fans are still living in the Brady era in their minds.

    Brady was the Patriots to me!
    I just lost my interest in football when he retired and just have no desire to watch it anymore..

    Nothing is going to change until Hoodie retires, that's the reality of the situation

    Yesterday was the very first day in my life rooting for the Pats. Historically it's been legit HATE. That was due simply because the Pats admittedly were the AFC Warlords the past two decades and completely annihilated my Bills. Yep, a hate for being the loser. hahhahahahaha . It's the only HATE in my world that I admit I have because of the fact I was the loser. heh

    Now.. DOLFANS.. you are on the list.

    AFC East war? AFC East war.
    Where in the past the Dolfans and Buffalo Bills sufferers were united in their hatred of the Patriots; now there is a heated bitter rivalry for supremacy of the AFC East.

    Correction. The Patriots ditched finding any decent receivers before they ditched Brady. Brady had no choice. He had no one to whom to throw a pass.
