Is 10-7 A Successful Season for 2021?

[Dolph N.Fan]

Does a 17th game diminish how good a 10 win season is now? Is 10-7 a good season for Miami? I think the new line to be safe for the playoffs is probably 12 wins now. 11-6 is probably cutting it close and 10-7 is probably no playoffs in the AFC.

At least 11 wins and in playoff.

Miami probably needs to sweep two division teams this year

If they are any good, they should sweep NE and NY, and split with Buf.

There have already been people looking at the schedule and saying 8-8 or worse. They HAVE to think 10 is good

So before the 17th game was made official?

I would be pretty disappointed losing 7 times

Gotta beat Buffalo or Miami doesn't deserve a shot at the playoffs. I think 10-7 would be a good season but I want more wins

The only way the 2021 season will be a success is if the Dolphins make the playoffs. Three years is plenty of time to build a playoff team in the NFL today and anything less than a spot in the playoff will be a complete failure IMO.

I disagree. Year 1 of Flo was the tear down. This is year 2 of the rebuild, IMO. 11-6 or even 10-7 and missing the playoffs is still progress. We need consistency in winning seasons to continue to establish Flo’s culture.

Sorry but I disagree. They were 10-6 last year and only missed the playoffs because of the loss to the Bills in their last game of the season. So anything less than the playoffs next year would be regression instead of progression.
In my view they need to start making the the playoffs or their will be no Flo culture. I like Flores and I would like to see him in Miami for a long time but the only way that is going to happen is by him getting them to the playoffs and eventually to the SB.

Only standard that matters is playoff appearance

For those thinking 8 or less in 16 games, 10 should still be a successful season

10-7 with no playoffs is total failure. Complete and total failure!

seems premature to make such a statement without any facts
