I assume you mean on TV combined with in person? I have watched every game.

I've seen every game, multiple times.  I DVR the game and start watching 1 hr after kickoff so I can skip commercials and half time.  It usually works out that I'm watching the final few minutes in real time.  I feel I miss so much watching the game, I usually watch it once more after reading what all the talking heads have to say.  I look for things I missed, or watch how a particular player does.  I'll fast forward through some of the drives.  

I haven't watched the Rams game a 2nd time yet, but I will try and watch it tonight.  I plan to focus on the offensive line and pay particular attention to how Jake Long plays, since he seems to be getting criticism.  I also want to see what kind of push we are getting and who is being pushed back on pass and running plays.

Added - It's fun to re-watch a game we win, and I don't mind watching games we lose big.  It's the close games we lose that are brutal the 2nd time around.  You see just how small mistakes end up costing you a victory.

What radio station carries the games locally? Are they covering Dolphin's pre-game?

You said previously that you work for ESPN.  What do you do there and what hours do you work?  It seems that you work late hours.

I either listen to 940 am, the local Miami station on iHeart radio or the TuneIn radio apps on my phone. The last two games I've had to listen on the TuneIn as the 940 feed hasn't been working during the game. I've never had an issue any other time.  I had to listen to the Cincinatti feed for that game as none of the Dolphins feeds were working but TuneIn has all the NFL games.

Anyone going to the Indy game? Thinking about getting tix on eBay.  Indy's about 6.5 hrs from where I live might make trip. Last game I went to was the BAL game in 2010
