Next 3 games against opponents are 9-0
 
Looks like a task on paper. If we can come out of this with only one loss, preferably to Miami or New England, we will be sitting VERY pretty going into the bye. I wish the Bears was one of the teams we had at home but it doesnt look like that will ever happen.

Just waiting on the Bears to take their downward turn, hopefully it starts with our our game.

The NFL schedule makers love making us play Chicago and Green Bay in the cold weather.

The Bears are tough at home, even when they're having an off season ... it's the wind ... Packer's will even tell ya', they couldn't dominate the NFC North until they learned to win in Chicago ... toughest game of the three, IMO, but don't want to look ahead of MIA either, :).

None of those teams would be 3-0 if they had played us by now.

I am certain we will be happy to oblige them with their first loss!!!

I like us against Miami, but they're tougher than people think. It looks like Cameron Wake will miss the game, which is a huge loss for them. Their running game is poor & I think our D can get pressure on Tannehill.

Away at the Bears & Patriots are tough matchups, but at least it's not dead-of-winter up there yet. I think the Bears probably give us the toughest test.

Pretty confident we can go 2-1 over those next three, and 3-0 is very possible, too.

I also think Chicago is going to be tough, Miami and New England are no push-overs themselves but Chicago looks better out of the three so far. I think we take Miami, the other 2 I'll see if we have injuries then predict. One game at a time!!

A good test.

I am predicting 7 sacks on Tannehill.


He is already averaging 5 per game now!

Beautiful. Beautiful. Beautiful. We will know where we are. We can adjust to any surprises and play the rest of the season.

One game at a time. Sorry I know it is a simplistic view but... One game at a time.

If you're gonna play Chicago at home, at least it's in September.

I see a lot of the Bears. I'm not convinced they're any better than they normally are - a 10-6, 9-7 type team with major problems on the offensive line and a defense that is not nearly as good on the field as they are on paper. Last time we played that team Cutler caught a beating and our pass rush then was not half as good as it is now.

NE is a good team like always and we can play with that team but we have to go up to their place. That's going to be a tough one, IMO.

The schedule makers didnt give us Chicago because they wanted us to go to Chicago. I wish people could understand this. We had to go to Chicago because we both finished third in the division. If we took care of business against Carolina last game we would be going to Minnesota, which would almost be a lock for us to beat.

We as fans have the luxury of looking ahead to other games. It is part of the fun. Its not like we are going to cause them to lose if we look ahead. As long as the team takes it one game at a time Ill look as far ahead as the Super Bowl.

Yea but it is every single time we play them. At least since 06 and I think even before that.

Thankfully we don't have to play all three at once...

ONE-GAME-AT-A-TIME...

For now, There is only Miami.

The average October hi-low temp for Chicago is only 63-46 degrees.
Since it is an early October afternoon game, it won't be very cold in Chicago.

And, perhaps you were only speaking generally, but we don't play Green Bay this year unless it's the playoffs, in which case it behooves the Saints to have the higher seed!
