The Dolphins stand alone.

The St. Louis Rams defeated the New Orleans Saints 37-29, on the arm of QB Marc Bulger. The Saints had won four straight and were poised to take a piece of first place in the NFC South. To have their winning streak snapped by the once winless 0-8 Rams has to be heart wrenching. Although one suspects the only team that cares as much as the Saints is the only team left without a win, the Miami Dolphins.

Scoring the last 11 points of the game, the Buffalo Bills, were able to come from behind and keep the Dolphin's winless season intact. This is the 5th loss for the Dolphins of 3 points or less. You'd have to think that with Trent Green and Ronnie Brown they could have eeked out those 3+ points in one of those losses. With the Patriots heading towards an undefeated season, and the last undefeated team being the '72 Dolphins, it almost seems as if it's in the stars to be the first winless team since the '76 Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

I'm rooting for both the Patriots and the Dolphins on this one. But there's something so much more entertaining about watching futility than success. I think the best part about this is that I (and you) would be able to say, without any doubt, that I could have done just as good a job as the Dolphins. I can say it now...through week 9, I could have done just as good as job as Cam Cameron. In fact, I'm going to use this as a basis to campaign for a coaching position next year. I wonder if the Cardinals are hiring? Does anybody really care if they are? While we're at it, how do you think I'd look in grey suit with a nice, subtle, red pinstripe. I think I'd look damn good, as good as whip cream nestled in a Victoria Secrets model's buttocks. So tasty and wrong.
