The Indianapolis Colts visit the Miami Dolphins on MNF from Land Shark Stadium tonight.  The Colts are 1-0 in 2009 and hoping to extend their record streak with a 7th consecutive season with 12 or more wins.  The Dolphins, meanwhile, are coming off the best one-year turnaround in NFL history improving from 1-15 in 2007 to 11-5 in 2008.

Some might say the Dolphins are flying high again.
