TNF football is awful...
I loved that Thursday night was a college game night and you would typically get a good primetime matchup, but when TNF started in with NFL games, the colleges no longer scheduled good games.

10-6 or 11-5 is a good possibility with that schedule. The Dolphins should be improved but we don't know how good they will actually be or how good each team on the schedule is going to be. Too many variables that could change the way things currently look.
What's w playing the bills and pats both 2x in 3 weeks? You never see that - one opponent yes, but both? Weird.
THE OG CANEPHINS
formally known as CANEPHINS
NFL is doing that across the board this year with conference games. You should see the Falcons schedule.
They get all 4 AFC East games in a row and then are back loaded with divisional games.

Or all 4 of our prime time games for that matter.
Tough middle of the schedule for them, at NE, at NYJ, at Carolina, vs Dallas, and at Seattle. They do get 3 straight home games after that at least.
The stands have a canopy over them which will trap the sound. I expect it to be loud, Dude (I prefer the whole brevity thing). I'll be there in person and you'll be watching on TV, so we'll have multiple perspectives by which to judge. Also, 30k packed shoulder to shoulder in a small stadium for a home opener is different than 30k scattered about Dolphin Stadium for a meaningless game in December.

He predicted 7-9 last year if i recall correctly.
It's all a crapshoot until it's imprinted in history.

But what can you expect from the wannabe sports entertainment capital of the world? Only 6 teams predicted with a losing record. Pretty remarkable if that holds true!
2 teams in NFC with less than 8 win, and they each have 6. An 8-8 record would get 7th pick in next years draft.

It's not about the roster, it's about the will to win. 17th in points per game, 24th in offensive yards per game, 26th in passing yards per game, and 9th in rushing yards per game. 18th in points allowed per game, 29th in total allowed yards per game, 15th in passing yards allowed per game, and 30th in rushing yards allowed per game. By the numbers, the Dolphins should've had a horrible season and yet they won a bunch of games they would've lost in preceding seasons.
I don't know how the Dolphins have a worse season this year, it doesn't seem possible.
Bucs - We're not losing to them. W
@Chargers - Until further notice, the Fins own the Chargers. W
@Jets - J-E-S-T-S. Suck. Suck. Suck. W
Saints (London) - Winnable, with effort. W
Titans - Meh. W
@Falcons - We're going to get our asses kicked. L
Jets - See above. W
@Ravens - I don't see a win here. L
Raiders - Assuming Carr is healthy, this is a probable loss. L
@Panthers - Cam isn't Superman anymore. W
Bye
@Patriots - Homer pick, but I want to see the Patriots crash and burn. W
Broncos - Broncos are probably going to be bottom feeders this year. W
Patriots - Jarvis Landry has the game of his life to make his prediction come true. W
@Bills - LOL. W
@Chiefs - If they're in the playoff hunt, this is going to hurt. L
Bills - ROFLMAO. W
I can see this team going anywhere from 8-8 to 14-2 depending on how everything breaks. I actually think Brady's Super Bowl performance was his last desperate gasp preceding his long descent into age-induced mediocrity. He has to be physically and mentally worn out and his football-hating eco-fascist wife certainly isn't helping him.
Hey to some it's just an environmental conscience? Also heard Gisele's not a bad looker...
