This is Miami’s schedule of rouges gallery for 2017… what to make of it.

 Miami must win at least 9 in this schedule to keep the mojo alive

The NFL announced the 2017 Schedule for each team yesterday, and even though the teams already knew the exact teams that they were going to play in the upcoming season, they did not know the times and dates. And while times and dates aren’t an end all be all, they are a factor.

When looking at the Miami Dolphins 2017 Schedule there are a few things that pop out.

First of all, the Dolphins start the season out at home, which is a first since 2014.

This is a plus for Miami, because Miami’s home field advantage is enhanced in the first month of the season compared to the any other time in the season, because that is when the Miami heat is at it hottest and offers an extra advantage over teams in the 4th quarter.

This schedule has some odd features

However, the one caveat about this week one home opener is that they are hosting the Tampa Bay Bucs, which is the only other team in the league that is as equipped as Miami to play in the South Florida heat, so our heat advantage is not going to come into effect that game… figures.

The next thing that stood out was the fact that Miami travels to London the fourth week of the season to take on the New Orleans Saints, which will end up being one of Miami’s home games.

So this is a bit of a disadvantage because Miami will only have seven home games in South Florida, whereas almost every other team in the league will have 8 home games.

The NFL always gives a bye week to teams after they play in London. However, Miami petitioned against this because they did not want to have a bye week that early in the season. The good news is Miami won that petition and were awarded their bye in week 11 instead, which will be much more advantageous because injuries tend to mount as the season wears on.

The other noteworthy thing about the Dolphins schedule is that the Dolphins were awarded four Primetime games.

Miami must take advantage and win early in this schedule

Obviously the best pay per head review site and NFL football fans around the league were impressed by the Dolphins 10-6 turnaround last season and feel that they are an upcoming team that can gain some national attention this season. Miami will actually play three prime-time games in a row this season: weeks 8 through 10. In week 8, they will play in Baltimore on Thursday night, against a team they rarely beat, and then they play in week 9 on Sunday night against the Oakland Raiders at home. Lastly, they play in week 10 on Monday night in Carolina and by the end of the three games Miami will either have an impressed or depressed Fins Nation.

In the next article, we will do a game by game prediction, but for the last word on the schedule today, I would say that the beginning of the season looks much easier compared to the end of the season. What are the rest of the Miami Dolphins News fans thoughts about what they noticed about the Dolphins 2017 schedule?
