Title: Schedule Comes Out Tonight
Post by: EDGECRUSHER on May 07, 2020, 11:41:49 am
As for the Miami Dolphins, the schedule for 2020 will feature their six AFC East division games, the four NFC West games, four games against the AFC West teams, and two games against the teams that finished last in their divisions in the AFC South and AFC North (matching Miami’s last place finish in the AFC East last season). That works out to home games against the Buffalo Bills, New England Patriots, New York Jets, Kansas City Chiefs, Los Angeles Chargers, Los Angeles Rams, Seattle Seahawks, and Cincinnati Bengals. Miami will visit the Bills, Patriots, Jets, Denver Broncos, Las Vegas Raiders, Arizona Cardinals, San Francisco 49ers, and Jacksonville Jaguars.

Playing both participants in the Super Bowl sucks but it is what it is. You can never really judge "winnable" games based off of last year's teams but it's fun to guess. I always said the bigger factor is where and when you play people. Much easier to play against the Niners coming off a bye week than having 4 straight games of Chiefs/Niners/Bills/Patriots towards the end of the year when your bye week was in Week 4.

The boy just came downstairs and told me that MIA will be the 2nd game of the 1st MNF game, and will be at SF

I heard a rumor on a 49ers board this morning that SF hosted Miami in week one...didn't hear about it being MNF.  Very nice!

I hope so as well, would be sweet Prime Time Week1.  Only thing that sucks, is that I get up daily at 5am for work, this would be a long Tuesday for me LOL

Sucks that I probably won't be able to go to the MIA @ SF game this year.   It's only once every 8 years that my dad, my uncle, and I have this chance.

Winner of the last game wins the superbowl!!!!

That is the way it works every year.

Not getting too excited about the schedule release because I doubt what gets released tonight actually gets played to to C19.

I didn't think i had to explain the last game meaning week 17, Dolphins vs Bills.

Anyone want to give their too early W/L record.

I said 6-10 about a month ago, still some heartache losses, but no blowouts and we play better as a WHOLE.

After seeing that schedule, I might reconsider going 8-8, which would be nice.

Go Phins!!!!!!!!!

Week 1 (Sunday, Sep. 13) - @ New England Patriots

Week 2 (Sunday, Sep. 20) - vs. Buffalo Bills

Week 3 (Thursday, Sep. 24) - @ Jacksonville Jaguars (TNF)

Week 4 (Sunday, Oct. 4) - vs. Seattle Seahawks

Week 5 (Sunday, Oct. 11) - @ San Francisco 49ers

Week 6 (Sunday, Oct. 18) - @ Denver Broncos

Week 7 (Sunday, Oct. 25) - vs. Los Angeles Chargers

Week 8 (Sunday, Nov. 1) - vs. Los Angeles Rams

Week 9 (Sunday, Nov. 8) - @ Arizona Cardinals

Week 10 (Sunday, Nov. 15) - vs. New York Jets

Week 11 (Sunday, Nov. 22) - BYE

Week 12 (Sunday, Nov. 29) - @ New York Jets

Week 13 (Sunday, Dec. 6) - vs. Cincinnati Bengals

Week 14 (Sunday, Dec. 13) - vs. Kansas City Chiefs

Week 15 (Sunday, Dec. 20) - vs. New Englad Patriots

Week 16 (Sunday, Dec. 27) - @ Las Vegas Raiders

Week 17 (Sunday, Jan. 3) - @ Buffalo Bills


Tough start, even the probably easy Jaguars game will be made harder because it's TNF. Short weeks almost always favor the home team.  However, from Weeks 6-13 we can really see how we improved and perhaps solidify ourselves as a playoff contender this season. Last 4 games will be tough.

As an Upstate NY resident it sucks that once again the @Buffalo game is at the very end of the season.  Seems like its been that way for the last four or five years that it has fallen around that Christmas/New Years window, when I really don't want to take a three hour drive out to Buffalo for a game in the cold/snow, when it doesn't mean anything, and the funds are low from the holidays.  The last Miami game I went to at Rich Stadium (I still call it Rich Stadium) was a Thursday night game probably 7 years ago.

We play the Jets in back-to-back games. That's weird. Both teams have their bye week in-between, but still, that's not normal.

The Jags game might not be much worse for Miami. I mean ... it's just over an hour or so away by plane. If allowed ... there will also be a ton of Dolphin fans at that game.

I hate that the last two games are on the road. That's a tough way to end the season.

nothing's normal with NFL when it comes to the Dolphins. IIRC, the Dolphins requested last year that they be taken off the London games and yet the NFL STILL put them on for this year. If not for the COVID, they would have played over there again.  Fock the NFL

Week 12 could be an interesting game.  Both teams will have two weeks to prepare after having played each other.  The ultimate “half time adjustment “ game.

It does certainly raise some interesting possibilities. Do you keep doing what worked the first game? Or do you try something completely different? Do you hold something back in the first game, "saving it" for the second?
