FWIW, it's from the worst four letters in sports::

27. Miami Dolphins
Projected Super Bowl odds: 0.2 percent

Adam Gase spent the offseason attempting to recalibrate the culture in Miami, but the most important addition the Dolphins might have made is getting back quarterback Ryan Tannehill, who was posting career-best marks for yards per attempt and passer rating when he went down with a partially torn ACL in 2016. Tannehill's athleticism should help spring the running game, and if the Dolphins trust Kenyan Drake enough to give him 250 touches, they might find they have a franchise running back. The quiet addition of Josh Sitton also upgraded the weakest part of the Dolphins' roster from a year ago.
If you squint, you might also see a defense that could emulate what the Eagles did a year ago, with plenty of depth along the edge at pass-rusher and a secondary built around rangy safeties in Reshad Jones, T.J. McDonald and first-round pick Minkah Fitzpatrick. This time last year, Gase was basically getting the Sean McVay press as one of the most promising young coaches in football. He didn't lose his ability to coach overnight. If the Patriots slip, the Dolphins might be the team best-positioned to pounce in the AFC East.

Glad they acknowledge the return of Tannehill being our most important addition. We have the qb to lead us there, if he’s surrounded by a solid roster. Problem is we need a dozen or so young players to turn the corner. It just doesn’t happen that way unfortunately.

No. I think it may take more than that.

Not really...if no key, out for the season injuries occur, Miami is right off the bat a playoff team.
Now a few things occur like the running game takes off, Gesicki becomes a good TE right from Rookie Season, and the Defense is at least solid...anything is possible with the Type of HC and QB we have.
 
I said we'd win the division. After that it's a crapshoot.
 
FWIW, every single one of my friends that are genuine fans of football (and teams not named the “dolphins”) think it is ridiculous the phins are dead last in all the preseason rankings.

Call me crazy, but I feel really good about this season. I love the additions - I mock drafted our first 2 rounds a month before draft day. Baker looks FAST. I’ve made it very clear how I feel about Quinn. Drake is a stud. O Line on paper is rock solid. We’ve got work horses at WR (outside DVP), and a QB who would command a 100 mil contract if he was a free agent (you know damn well he would).

I don’t need to do this, but I love this site so it’s a win/win - I’ll go on record saying I will donate a VIP membership if the dolphins finish below .500 this season.
 
We have a great chance to win if 31 of the other starting QBs all have season ending injuries on week 1
