Scoreboard

None of the pre-season top six lost, although the Saints have not played yet (Monday night game).

It seems that a long season is in store for the Dolphins. They gave up 42 points in the first half, and they were playing at home! The Ravens are not considered the league’s new superteam, so it appears that the Dolphins just flat-out suck. (They were picked dead last in the ESPN pre-season power rankings, so it appears that the experts knew what they were doing in that case.)

How bad are things in Miami? Not as bad as they are going to be. It has been reported that, in the aftermath of the game, several key Dolphins called their agents to look into a trade. “Some of the players think the coaches ‘aren’t serious about competing and winning and, by all appearances, have bought into the notion that the Dolphins will take their lumps now in the hopes of laying the foundation via high draft picks for building a successful team later.'”
