Leaks show that we are probably opening the year at New England and hosting them to end the year.

When and where you play the teams is almost mopre important than who you play. If we have a Bye week in Week 4, that's horrible, same as if we have 3 straight road games against division winners. So, hopefully the Gods show us favor this season.

We have to stop with this England nonsense. Their fans don't care and it's just a strain on the players with all of that traveling.

What makes you say their fans don't care?  Aren't the games always sold out?  Plus, the Dolphins are the number 1 team in England.

I know a few folks in the UK, and they all love American football.

Nothing comes close to European Football/Soccer in England. The NFL coming by once a year is like the circus coming by, it's fun to look at but no one will go if it is once a week. Let some other team become a novelty act, we're an actual NFL franchise now!

If Dolphins are playing Jax  in England that sucks. It’s nice for Dolphin fans to easily travel to see them play and in state games are usually packed with both.

I'm surprised that's the game they choose.  I imagine the attendance is pretty decent for Jax.

Wow, FUCK YOU to the NFL. A Week 14 bye week? If we want any chance at the playoffs, we need to go 4-0 from November 21st through December 18th. New Orleans is beatable too if they have no good QB situation. Indy may be kinda crappy too with Carson Wentz at the helm.

I hate the England game, especially since it makes it a short week before and after with the travel and the bye week placement is a joke. The rest is passable, no 9 game stretches against division winners or anything like that but we need to stop this England nonsense. The league is clearly not helping us out in any way with it in terms of schedule favorability, didn;t even get a bye after the London game like all the other years. We are in decent shape if we get through the first 7 games at 4-3 but we need to split the season series against the Pats and Bills and sweep the Jets. 3-3 division record is not an option.

I would take that but we got some tough ones there. 2 against Buffalo, 1 at Tennessee and 1 at the Superbowl champs. Also got a ridiculous number of 1 PM starts. We are at Las Vegas and starting at 1 PM, this schedule sucks in terms of things like bye weeks and start times. Short week hosting Baltimore on a Thursday night. The order of games seems pretty fair to me, everyone has some easy patches and rough patches but we are going to be in trouble if we are banged up around Week 8. Almost like Grier knew the schedule in advance since he spent the whole free agency period just acquiring depth. That will certainly be tested this season.

The Saints have Jameis Winston at QB and some guy they run trick plays with. I think you are giving them too much credit.

I think that the Superdome on Monday Night is going to be a very hard place to play.  Also, the Saints are good.  QBs matter, but if they still had Brees, I would've given us a 0.

^^^ Depends on their record and outlook in late December. I don't remember NO fans being very supportive prior to Brees and the success he brought. If they don't have some early success fans might check out for a while.
