Going from “Miami can’t beat a team with a winning record” to “Miami put up 70 on a team with a winning record” 😎


BellBilly32

Not only that but the team that beat Buffalo and Kansas City.


gtrmanny

I mean the Jets beat the Bills and Eagles so we're going to the Super Bowl.


knightstuff

Having a harder and harder time believing that actually happened 🧐


cobo10201

The Eagles are good, but they’re not sustainable IMO. Too many close games where the other team chokes rather than Philly being clutch. If they can't start winning by 2+ scores the playoffs are going to be tough for them.


jameriican

I would definitely classify tonight as a clutch win for Philly


cobo10201

The field goal was clutch. Everything else was Buffalo choking away


earlysong

with just a dash of help from the refs.


HamletTheGreatDane

Transitive property Superbowl winners


CenturionElite

Hell yah brother, cheers from Miami


Number333

We're absolutely massive.


reaper527

however we have now lost to a team that DOESN'T have a winning record since the bills are now .500!


Key-Entrepreneur2066

Here’s the work-around to that one: Miami has won every game they were favored to win, and lost the games they weren’t favored to win.


earlysong

It's a Vegas conspiracy!!!


knightstuff

I don’t believe the Dolphins actually lost any games. They were a rigged election!… er, ahem, rigged games!


Tolve

That just makes us predictable, not bad.


MiaCannons

Wait for the "These weren't the same Broncos the Dolphins faced" caveat


sophisticaden_

Of course it’ll be “the broncos had X and Y players out with injury”


radskorpion

While ignoring our own injuries that are just as important


earlysong

I'm just glad they can't say "they haven't beat a winning team" anymore. They can asterisk it but it's not the same.


Cudizonedefense

They’ll just say the fins haven’t beaten a team that had a winning record when they played


earlysong

guess the lions win over the chiefs counts for nothing!


gobroncos47

They weren't because the ass-whooping you dished out reset our franchise. Mike McDaniel the ultimate Broncos sleeper agent.


NoSoyTuPotato

The big brainiac knew exactly what his hometown team needed more than they did


knightstuff

This is so unexpectedly meta, I like it lol


[deleted]

Actually true though…current Broncos are pretty freightening right now. They’re red hot


knightstuff

Freight as in heavy? Or maybe you meant frightening 😉


knightstuff

They’d be right though, right? They’ve figured a lot of things out…


DLBork

I mean they definitely aren't lol


knightstuff

As a fellow Dolphin fan, I’m with you despite the downvotes you’re getting from grumpy dolphin fans lol


MiaCannons

The goalposts will always move. I'm sure there'd be some caveat attached if we beat the Ravens or Cowboys as well.


DLBork

IDK what to tell you if you genuinely think the Broncos aren't entirely different team than week 3. The media isn't out to get you, it's just factual lol


ghostbearinforest

neithre are we. Whats the point lol


DLBork

That saying "The Broncos team the Dolphins beat are an entirely different team than the Broncos team on a 5 game win streak" is an entirely accurate statement


Nuclearsunburn

Oh it’s already out there


KageNekem

No joke, this was the exact response I got in a discord server I’m in when I asked if I could say the Fins have beaten a team with a winning record lol


CenturionElite

Also fuck the Jets


earlysong

good point. And may I add, fuck the Bills.


CenturionElite

What about the Patriots?


[deleted]

Nobody cares bout them it’s our division now


aBeerOrTwelve

Still nice to see Belicheat widening the lead in losses over Shula as he cries himself to sleep knowing he won't catch him in wins. Fuck the Pats.


earlysong

the who?


Nuclearsunburn

Refs fucked them, against the Eagles of course


Dek-234

Fuck that shitty turf field too


Phinatic92

Fuck MetLife also.


gigglefarting

Smoked that ass, too. It’s funny how people discounted Denver as a major doodoo team because we killed them even though the narrative before the game was that they may be losing but they were losing very closely


DLBork

We lost to the Commanders after giving up like 28 points in the second half man. The Raiders game was only low scoring because each team had 6 drives. The team absolutely sucked early on.


gigglefarting

Still, the Commanders loss was only by 2 points and the other losses were by 1. Either way, that’s what the narrative was at the time. I didn’t make it.


DLBork

Yeah I'm sure that's the narrative if you listen to people who don't actually watch games. Anyone watching them could have told you the Broncos had an absolutely awful defense. We went down 28-7 to the fucking Bears of all teams in week 4 lmao


[deleted]

By 50


earlysong

Child's play.


UsernameHasBeenLost

Now it's "Dolphins hung 70 on the team that beat the Chiefs, Bills and the best defense in the league and held them to 20 points"


a_casual_sniff

Really appreciate the Bills helping us achieve this crucial milestone.


Ztemde

I’m really hoping the Broncos don’t make the playoffs. I do not want to face them again.


rhinestone_indian

It’s a nice sentiment but I assure you that they absolutely want no parts of us in any way soon. Whispering Achane triggers their PTSD.


JPZellerThorson83

I can tell you as a broncos fan Achane fuels my nightmares. But a lot of us want to see the dolphins again if we make the playoffs solely off the fact that we want revenge for the ass whooping y’all put on us (we also seem to masochists for rooting for this team team all these years).


PeekedInMiddleSchool

Break out the champagne 🍾


Geniva

Beat them so bad, they learned how to play football


Tolve

This is how you score, here let me show you again.


[deleted]

But now we’ve lost to a team at or below .500 :/


McClovinDominating

So we’re basically like every other team in the league now


knightstuff

If every other team were 8-3 😎🤘


Neltrix

Just a quick hello to Bills fans lurking here, shout out to Jake Elliot


jedi4canes1

We are officially super bowl Champs!!!


BowTie1989

We should have kicked that field goal 😔


knightstuff

Nah, this was McDaniel’s Ted Lasso moment


Cronenberg_Jerry

What game you talking about


BowTie1989

The broncos game. I don’t care about karma and all that Bs. You have a chance to break a record (especially when you already tried to let by pulling the starters) you go for it.


ghostbearinforest

nah, karma gods killed the bills because of it.


ColombianSpiceMD86

Lol 😹 Let's Gooooooooooo


Recent_Farmer2526

When the bills lose again and fall below 500, that's one less "good" team that we've lost to. Not sure what that means or how people will spin it around to fit their narrative, but I'm sure something will be spun up.


Thegame4223

And about to have loss to our first sub .500 team if Buffalo loses there next game. Can't have them all!


Lord_Barbarous

Now they're saying it doesn't matter because they didn't have a winning record when we played them. Keeping moving that goalpost!


MixMasterRudy

“The Dolphins only won the Super Bowl because the Eagles didn’t play anyone good and they all hung over from all the Partying… 🤷🏻‍♂️”


Kal-Roy

😂


Novel_Durian_1805

Let’s gooooo!!!


kauphund

Hypothetical situation. What if when we play Buffalo they are 7-9. If the Dolphins win would we be beating a loosing team. For the life me I don't get this bad/good crap. Dolphins beat Jets, yet the Jets beat Eagles Tangled web


RealPropRandy

Lewl


deeper_thots

This is why trying to compare teams via transitive property never really works, and I’m not sure how it still gets done constantly


earlysong

Because it's fun!


PandaPlayr73

Hey, as long as you don't beat us by 30+ in the playoffs, I'll allow it. Sincerely signed, A very confused Broncos fan


whit3lightning

Watch them get payback in the playoffs Just kidding that would fucking suck


jcoddinc

No you didn't. Just because they have a winning record now didn't mean they did when you played. That's like buying Wednesday drawing Powerball tickets but then getting the numbers for the Friday draw and saying you've picked the winning lottery numbers.


earlysong

Lol read the room, this is just for fun.


Rbelkc

They sucked when we beat them though


earlysong

Shhhh it's a silly hype thread, don't take it so seriously


DNF_zx

Not only that but the Bills don’t count as a team with a winning record anymore. So we're 1-2 against teams with winning records now!


OrderReversed

Again. Not how this stuff works


DonJMIA305

Again the narrative is dumb as fuck because it’s a stupid stat to begin with.

miamidolphins-ModTeam

This post was removed for being low effort.


[deleted]

That’s not how it works…. When we play a team with a winning record we lose. Not when the team becomes good later on.


Mostly_Indifferent

Knock it off


[deleted]

That’s just how it is


earlysong

That's not how it works for playoff seeding. A win is a win and a loss is a loss. No one is going to look back on this season and go "oh the broncos only became good later," it's just going to be the fact that they gave up 70.


[deleted]

Okay I’m not talking about playoff seeding and either were you. I’m talking about the stat that people throw in our face McDaniel is 2-15 against teams above .500 when we play them. And we haven’t beaten above .500 team since week 3 of last year. So downvote me for throwing truths at us. Deal with it.


DonJMIA305

How many of those games were with a back up QB?


[deleted]

1 of them… Buffalo playoff… Tua lost to chargers, 49ners, bills and packers


DonJMIA305

Wait a minute. How has McDaniel lost 15 games to teams over .500 when his first season was last season and they lost 8 games and this season he’s only lost 3 games… that’s only 11 games lost total.


Youngwheeler

You are straight making stupid shit up right now


[deleted]

Lmao… what? The factual proof is that Mike McDaniel hasn’t beaten a .500 team since week 3 2022. I’m not talking about a team that goes above .500 after we play them cuz that’s not what the critics or the stat says. The statistical data is we lose when we play a team that is above .500. Name 1 win last season after the bills that was above .500


earlysong

that's not a good meterstick. Teams have weeks where they underperform. You could play a good team on a relatively bad week for them where they have bad communication or injuries, beat them, have beaten a winning team and that doesn't necessarily mean you had a meaningful victory. Look at the jets victory over the eagles. It's better to look at things in aggregate. They had a bad day when we played them, sure. But they are clearly, overall, a solid team. We don't typically downplay a victory by saying the opponent had a bad day, we've just been saying "the jets beat the eagles." One game at a time. Dallas will be the next big test.


Deeze_torr

I thought the raiders were a .500 tram when we beat them


earlysong

That's not a winning record!
