horrible pick, love dolphins here.

Big Bear · 10-09-12, 02:53 PM

what makes you like the Dolphins here?

2daBank · 10-09-12, 02:56 PM

not much besides bunch of young kids,,,they do have steve smith (former giant) who has been basically sitting on the shelf and can prob take on somewhat of a amendola type role,,besides that brandon gibson who they been waiting on for years and shows signs at times and a couple rookies.... as someone who knows this team pretty well im not sure id trust this young group to go on the road and win a gm just yet, amendola was bradfords security blanket and mia can bring serious heat (something rams struggle with anyway), you cant run on mia and with rams oline problems it gonna be open season on bradford i fear....on the other side i think stl will have success as their d is tough and travels just fine, in the end tho i think mia will make a few plays and the defense will force a turnover or 2 and they prob get the W....... it nice ppl actually give lambs a chance to win gms these days but personally id either play mia/under/ or pass.....

2daBank · 10-09-12, 03:03 PM

i actually just grabbed some of mia while my book still had -3....

Big Bear · 10-09-12, 03:14 PM

oh their d is for real..they stole jenkins in the second round, on the other side finnigan is a pit bull, very good corners, very good pass rush, biggest prob is they still give up to many rushing yrds , enter mia team who likes to run....at some point the rush d will greatly improve as brockers improves but they still not elite at stopping the run as of yet....

Rams not so hot on grass or on the road, plus Amendola will not play - that really hurts the Rams passing attack. I like Miami here.

SmittyZ28 · 10-09-12, 05:09 PM

Missed the -3 both my books are at -3.5, most likely moving to -5 by game time. Although Miami has been HORRIBLE at home the past two seasons

ChiLLx · 10-09-12, 07:56 PM

Miami or under

i dont think mia has the offense to justify anything over -4...

my exact thoughts

Big Bear · 10-10-12, 02:12 PM

I might regret this but i decided to take a shot with Rams +160.

I'm not sold on the Dolphins and I think Rams look like a playoff team.

JayLA · 10-10-12, 02:24 PM

Homerism aside
Miami -3.5 over 39

WinningIsKeY · 10-10-12, 02:26 PM

Rams will not muster up much offense IMO . Tannehill showing signs of improvement and a pretty decent Dolphins defense behind him. Stl hasn't proven itself on the road as well. Bradford maybe at home is a good bet. Take miami at home off a big road win. Their running game should do well against stl 18th ranked rush D. No real receiving threats for stl .Miami 1st in rush defense in the nfl. The right angle is the Phins IMO

This game has 19-13 type score with Miami most likely winning written all over it!

shooms79 · 10-10-12, 05:30 PM

Teased stl to +9.5 and not even worried

WTF

The Rams MVP is their punt returner - if you watched last game you'd notice he was nailing them for around 60 yards (as opposed to a typical 40). This means bad field positioning every go, more lost time moving the chains, and a lower scoring game. If anyone is considering bets on the total they MUST account for that punter.

Im not sure about the the numbers, but Miami's punter is good too. Our field position is usually good, on defense and offense.

Thats even better. I haven't researched this game much yet but was only referencing for purposes of picking the over/under. For ML/spread I'm not a big fan either way but lean Miami.

ShogunRua · 10-11-12, 12:47 AM

under

Yea its all good..i wasnt cheerleading, just sharing information. I think between field position, an early defensive game and turnovers.....the low 37.5 total gets busted over at the end by a touchdown. Miami -3.5 or Stl+9 takes it. Miami 24 Stl 17

Big Bear · 10-11-12, 08:41 AM

well everyone on here I think has picked Miami to win and no offense but here at SBR that is usually a good indication the Rams will win.

shit dont forget their kicker! greg the leg is fukkin sick, kid drills them them 55 like it aint shit (will prob break record at some point, he gotta be on somethin!!),,rams basically in scoring range from the 40! which is huge for a team that struggles to crack midfield a lot of weeks...
