Looks Like The 72 Dolphins Can All Sleep Tonight

I know its early but those old guys seem to get all worked up when a team gets on a big roll .

Nope. Kansas City is 7-0.

your right I forgot them but somehow the Broncos seemed like more of a threat .

What a game tonight.

In the future though, don't count out that Manning guy until that clock reads :00.

Damn the '72 Dolphins. I'm going to piss on all their graves when a team finally goes undefeated. Anyone remember the Patriots run in '07? Of course you don't, because that season was all about the '72 Dolphins. Did you know the Giants won the Superbowl that year? Yeah I bet you thought the '72 Dolphins won the bowl in '07, because Shula, Buoniconti, Morris, and the rest of that clown show couldn't get enough attention in the national media leading up to, and after the bowl. I almost melted the TV with my glare when I saw Shula's stupid mug on Sports Center after the Patriots lost.

In 1972 the Dolphins strength of schedule was a cream puff like 70-122-1. Worst of all, in week 3 at the Met, the Vikings led the Dolphins 14-6 in the 4th quarter, and lost 16-14. I didn't know Frazier was coaching way back then.

And what do you mean the '72 Dolphins were the only undefeated team in league history? I guess we conveniently forgot these 4 teams from the '20's xD.

1920 Akron Pros 8-0-3
1922 Canton Bulldogs 10-0-2
1923 Canton Bulldogs 11-0-1
1929 Green Bay Packer 12-0-1

And yes I feel lighter now, thanks for your concern. Go Chiefs!

Stupid Broncos, they were my only hope to delivery me from this pain.

Loved that press coverage by the Colts. It sure threw Manning's timing off for most of the game. That seems to be the best bet for handling these fancy pants QBs. Play man coverage, bump and run and knock the QB down every chance. And they still had to defend until the final minute. Good game....fun to watch two solid teams.

Luck is pretty special too.

Yeah how bout those Colt DB's? They were some of the worst in the league when Alan Williams was coaching them, then we steal that gem away, and now they look pretty good again, while our pass defense still looks putrid. Coincidence?
