Miami Dolphins' Gibril Wilson: I'm the starter; Obama a fan of Jason Taylor

A six pack of Dolphins:

Gibril Wilson wants to make one thing clear: He said he has not lost his starting safety job, even though Chris Clemons was on the field instead to open the Jets game. ``That was just a certain package,'' Wilson said. Yeremiah Bell ``and I are still the starters. Nobody needs to get antsy.''

DOLPHINS NOTEBOOK

Sunday's game all about Miami Dolphins matching wits with Patriots

Nobody likes to say it, but Sunday's game might be decided by who can fool whom, at least when the Dolphins have the ball.

Last year in Foxborough, Mass., the Dolphins unveiled their updated single wing, the Wildcat, while New England had Matt Cassel starting only his second game after Tom Brady's injury. Both coaching staffs clearly were nervous -- the Patriots limited Cassel's repertoire, and Dolphins coach Tony Sparano admitted Thursday he thought the Wildcat might be a one-shot appearance and just hoped running back Ronnie Brown handled the snap properly.

IN MY OPINION

Miami Dolphins have true character while Jets are full of characters

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- The Dolphins are a team with character. The Jets are a bunch of jerks.

That, as much as Sunday's 30-25 final at the Meadowlands, is the difference between the bitter AFC East rivals.

IN MY OPINION

Noisy Jets gone, Pats next for Miami Dolphins

The Dolphins hold deed and title to the AFC East as defending division champions. The Jets act like they own the division, albeit with thoroughly unearned bravado.
