The 2019 Season/predict The Dolphins Record

Here's my hopefully inaccurate downer prediction.
Fins will go 4-12 and end up with the 3rd pick in the draft.
One of the 3 top quarterback prospects will either suffer a
career ending injury, play horribly or stay in school to avoid
the mess that is the dolphins.
Team brass will cite just plain old bad luck as the reason
the team finds itself on the outside looking in again
 
If Fitzpatrick stays healthy, the planets will align for at least 4 wins.

We could surprise with a 1-15 year, but our fans would have to boo straightaway.
 
You never know... There are so many variables at play... Key injuries, schedules, etc.

Looking at the list of teams, I see a few possibilities:

Strength of Schedule from https://www.chatsports.com/nfl/a/20...-6-playoff-teams-and-patriots-get-lucky-39789

2. Broncos (.533)
Games against 10-win teams: 7; Games against playoff teams: 7

Yes, they have premier players on defense, but have a rookie HC with an old broken QB in a new system. With a few major injuries could be a bad team with a tough schedule

9. Vikings (.512)
Games against 10-win teams: 6; Games against playoff teams: 7
They still have a strong defense and talent on offense, but Zimmer is entering one of those years with a lot of pressure where you see some teams collapse, especially with Kirk Cousins having some struggles last year with a huge contract...

T-12. Cardinals (.508)
Games against 10-win teams: 6; Games against playoff teams: 6

Pretty barren of talent with either a 2nd year Rosen or a rookie QB with a HC that should be OC of USC right now...

T-19. Lions (.496)
Games against 10-win teams: 5; Games against playoff teams: 6
Beardo could see a revolt going into a Tannehill-esque QB situation

T-27. Bengals (.473)
Games against 10-win teams: 5; Games against playoff teams: 5
Major QB problems with a HC who should still be a QB coach somewhere...

T-27. Giants (.473)
Games against 10-win teams: 4; Games against playoff teams: 6
Got rid of a lot of talent and will likely be playing through Eli's swan song


For reference, Dolphins currently have the 18th most difficult schedule based on SoS (Though I think it will end up being more difficult than that looking at some of those teams, including the Browns on the schedule)
18. Dolphins (.498)
Games against 10-win teams: 6; Games against playoff teams: 7

Anything can happen, of course. But we have to be the favorite, or a near one. A journey man 37 year old QB playing behind an O-line that is all question marks except for a good left tackle and no stars at the skill positions, and a defense that has a good cornerback and safety that could be really good and otherwise just a bunch of guys.

“There will be pain” as our new HC has said. Here’s to it being really painful.
 
What in the mother****ing **** is the point of this in March? Ever, really, but especially in March?
 
If they are trying to tank 8 and 8.

If they arent trying to tank 1 and 15... Because... Dolphins.
 
We go 0-16 to finally break whatever curse Don had us in to have the 17-0 season....Finally!! back to the promised land.
