I live in New York, I have missed numerous Super Bowl championships and even Championship Game appearances rooting for this terrible team. It's been over 20 years since I started cheering for Miami and they have repaid me with 2 division titles and countless losing seasons.

I don't think I can choose another NFL team, but I think I am going to follow Miami like I followed the Knicks in the 2000's. Show some self respect and I will watch again, otherwise I will just root for you to lose every game until actual change is made. This is just embarrassing now. 2 weeks to prepare for the Bills at home and we lose to this terrible team that in reality, is no worse than us.

This may have been the hardest loss I have ever seen from this team and that speaks volumes. I can't be alone in this.

It's just a game.  I will root for them every week no matter how bad they are.  And if they lose, it's not the end of the world

My life isn't over, but my interest in this team probably is. It's an abusive relationship at this point.

Before the season started just about everybody on this site thought Miami was a 10 win team at best, most thinking they were an 8 or 9 win team.  Nothing has really changed from that.  Miami is a bit worse that some teams, and a bit better than other teams, that makes just about every game a game they can win or lose on any given Sunday.  They should have won today's game, but it wasn't a gimme; Buffalo has improved this year also.

exactly nothing has changed. You can't pick them to win 8 or 9 games in August then be shocked with a 3-3 start. Did anyone in their right mind think this was a Super Bowl team?

I'm shocked people are shocked....its really funny to read some of this stuff!

This is no where near a 10 win team. How can you still think that? This buffalo team is so beat up and we still lose. We will be lucky to be in 3rd place in the AFC East at the end of the year. Hell, the jets look like the better team.

Just an FYI, we're a game down from the Pats, who lost to a team today they shouldn't have lost to as well, and we get to play them twice.  Disappointing loss, yes. Want to give up on the team?  Don't let the door kick your ass on the way out.

Yeah, they have shown nothing to make anyone think they are winning 7 of their last 10. The Browns had their crappy QB Wheeden in. The Colts are still a good team, but not the world beaters we all thought they were and the Falcons are an abomination. We were duped into thinking this team was a contender based on those 3 victories.

We got killed by the Saints, completely blew it against the Ravens and today's humiliation. Contenders don't lose the last 2 games. Hell, GOOD teams don't lose the last 2 games.

Tissues - aisle 3! The Dolphins have one claim to fame, an 'undefeated team' from the pre-historic era. Maybe two if you count Dan Marino's passing records that were a result of playing from behind his entire career. They suck, and always have sucked. I'd be embarrased to be a fan of a team that can't even fill half their stadium.

Everything they did right in those 3 wins they have done wrong in the 3 losses. Penalties, mistakes, boneheaded calls by the coaches, being aggressive when they should be cautious and vice versa. I just don't get it. They looked terrific in those 3 wins and have looked lost in the 3 losses. Were they just flat out lucky the first 3 weeks when they were doing everything right? They could easily win the next 5 straight or lose them all. They do so much talking about consistency in players, it's about time we see some consistency in the coaching staff. Even after making a royal mess of the first quarter of the game, Tannehill literally throws them back into the lead and then once they had the lead and actually running the ball with a little bit of success they decide to keep pressing their luck and having Tannehill drop back time after time. Even when you know this teams propensity to give up sacks and fumbles. Even when about the only thing that will GUARANTEE a loss is a turnover? Philbin should fine himself for that call. It wasn't a bad call, it was an unbelievably horrible call given the situation. You DON'T NEED A FIRST DOWN!!!!! Your best player on your team in this position is your punter. Let him do his thing and pin them deep with zero timeouts. If they drive the length of the field and kick a field goal, well go shake the rookie QB's hand and tell him he played terrific, but don't do something so collosally stupid it should be replayed over and over and over before every single game that Philbin coaches for the rest of his life. I remember a few years ago when the Bills did pretty much the same thing and tried to throw a pass late in a game when all they had to do was run the football and punt and I think the QB was strip sacked for a TD and they lost the game. Philbin should be forced to watch that game for the rest of his life before every game too. Doubt it would matter. You can't fix stupid.

Everyone was giving me shit when I said last week they'd miss the playoffs and finish 7-9. Where are they now? Where's the "playoff hunt" thread at? Reality check. I knew they were bad, but even I thought they could win at home against a terrible Bills team. It's another "next season" season. -EK

I'll never stop following them but I've given up on a playoff chance. If you can't beat a depleted team and look worse than the Jets then it's over. They're not a team with this coaching that can turn it around. At least I know my Sundays are pretty free now. It's good to get it out of the way so early.

Thank you for providing a clear definition of a weak fan...

3-3 and one game out of the division lead doesn't take them out of the playoff hunt and no where close to 7-9. Keep trolling panther fan.
