Dolphins - Rams

The Dolphins fall to the Patriots, and fall to 6-5, while the other three teams in the AFC East all get wins. It's still anyone's division though, and the Dolphins could still take it if they can get wins against the Bills and Jets. At the very least, they still have a good chance of a Wildcard spot, with three teams coming up that have not shown much this year. The first one is on Sunday, against the Rams.

Rams quarterback Marc Bulger suffered a concussion in Sunday's game against the Bears, and is questionable for the game on Sunday. If he can't play, Trent Green will get the start. Ironically, Trent Green is the last person you would expect to be coming in and playing because of a QB getting a concussion. Green is one more hit to the head away from a drool bib. He suffered season ending concussions while playing in Kansas City, and last year while playing for the Miami Dolphins.

After the game with the Rams, the Dolphins have matchups with the 49ers and Chiefs, who have won 4 games between them this year. So, the Dolphins have an excellent chance of getting above .500 for the year, and even if they don't make the playoffs it is a huge turnaround from the disaster that was last season.

Wide receiver Greg Camarillo, who was having a breakout season, is out for the rest of the season with a Knee injury. It's time for Ted Ginn to start showing some consistency and start making all of those balls thrown to him catches! He has such great potential, and has shown he can do it with some big yardage games and Randy Moss like catches in the end zone.
