Dolfan Satisfaction Meter: 40.9%

[Main game post on Dolphins-Steelers may be found directly below this in blog. Click on Steelers Steal One for my column off the game].

DOLFAN SATISFACTION METER: PITTSBURGH @ DOLPHINS: Results are official, and the latest Dolfan Satisfaction Meter poll indicates 40.9 percent overall satisfaction in the wake of Sunday afternoon's 23-22 home loss to Pittsburgh putting Miami's season record at 3-3. That's actually a fairly high number following a loss, likely reflecting both the 1-point margin against a quality opponent, and the We Wuz Robbed factor.

1aadsmThe DSM is a continuous gauge of how fans feel about the team and its direction. Right after each game, I invite you to share your overall degree of satisfaction. Criteria for voting is your own, but I suggest fans consider the most recent game's performance and caliber of opponent, the season as a whole, the direction the club is heading and your overall degree of optimism -- all in the context of reasonable expectations.

Poll and comments section stay open; however, poll results are certified official on the morning after one full day of voting. In this case, that was late morning Tuesday.
