    9-7 if they lose on the road to the Patriots. 10-6 if they win.

    Of course predicting what will happen in the NFL is a Fool's business.

    I think the keys are if tannehill keeps playing well and unlike last year we need to split with bills and sweep jets.

    With Spiller and Jackson out and the game on Thursday Night at home, the Phins have to beat the Bills next month.

    It'll be interesting to see how Percy Harvin improves the Jets.

    Here are mind
    @Jags-(L) 24-21 ot (We lose these games)
    Chargers-(W) 17-13 (I could see this going either way)
    @Lions-(L) 23-14 (Its 16-14 and we are threatening to score, when Nick Fairley strips Tannehill and houses it 70 yards.
    Bills-(W) 31-10 (This will be the fools gold "I feel so much better, we are back in the mix game").
    @Broncos- (L) 34-14 (Manning will thump us and we will all take it like its no big deal).
    @Jets- (L) 17-13 (A must win game, that slips through our fingers due to Sturgis missing two field goals).
    Ravens- (L) 28-24 (Flacco and Torrey Smith always hurt us, Steve Smith converts a game winning 4th and 14 leading to a TD).
    @Pats- (L) 20-17 ot (Gene Steratore reverses the call on a clearly obvious Tom Brady fumble citing he was in a throwing motion)
    Vikes- (W) 35-21 (At this point we are out of it and so are the Vikes, so Tannehill has a flawless game.
    Jets- (W) 23-10 (The "well that figures" game of the year)

    7-9, Sorry but i'm not about to predict us going 10-6 lol. I think its the same as usual record wise, a field goal here, a costly pick there, a gamble on 4th down not paying off, a bad call by Gene Steratore, etc, etc that swings us from 9-7 and playoffs to 7-9 with the 14th pick in the draft.

    Two things we have going for us that we didn't last year is a decent offensive line, a running game, and a stout defense (better than last season). If all three of those things can continue to perform well along with Ryan Tannehill, I can see 9-7.

    Well away from here
    The Chargers game will be interesting as historically teams travelling East for that early game tank it badly. However with them being on an extended week after the Thursday night game I could see them flying out here early than normal and negating that trend. If they don't however the odds are on our side more than the Chargers making this a very important yet unpredictable game to forecast.

    If we win the next two we are in a prime spot for the playoffs at that stage of the season.

    its a good point, the Broncos were on a high for Sunday nite, niners had no chance int that game, sometimes emotions that run that high are insurmountable. So hopefully they will not be able to get that high so soon thereafter.

    I like our defense against rivers, Brandon Oliver is who scares me.

    I think its a biy silly when people predict a defensive TD to seal a game. They are almost random noise statistically, can't be predicted.

    I think we got 10 wins in In there with that defense, and a coordinator who is embracing the qb running and moving..that's 1 more win than my preseason prediction..

    If we can get a slimmer dion Jordan playing all over the field I would be very confident about 10 wins.

    Basically the polar opposite of a year ago but with the same final result.

    I could imagine losing to the Bills. For some reason they have us. It's hard to explain. And they're a pretty good team. But I could also imagine beating the Lions or Chargers. Then again I can also strangely imagine the Dolphins repeating the Tampa disaster from a year ago this week against Jacksonville, and/or letting the Jets jump up and beat us somehow (probably with Vick at QB).

    I don't think history is always a good predictor of the future and results in this article are probably more a result of past regeims and it wouldn't indicate if a franchise has made a turn around.

    When Miami has had four or more wins after six games it is 20-6 on making the playoffs.

    When Miami has had two or fewer wins after six games it is 1-13 on making the playoffs.

    No big surprises there.

    It is the in-between I found illuminating – what has happened from the 3-3 position the team is in now.

    The odds of making the playoffs should be close to even, but Miami is only 1-7 on reaching the postseason when .500 at this stage.

    The only time it happened was 1983 when rookie Dan Marino made it so. The seven times it has not happened include three occurrences close enough to still hurt, in 2010, 2012 and 2013 – each involving miserable results suggesting a collapse or choke.

    In 2010 that included four consecutive home losses to end the season.

    In ’12 that included a 37-3 home loss to Tennessee.

    Last season that included a loss at Tampa Bay and season-ending losses at Buffalo and to the New York Jets by a combined 39-7 score – when a win in either game would have clinched a playoff spot

    I said before the season I thought this was an 8-8 team. While I hope I am proved wrong and the Dolphins end up having a winning record and make the playoffs, I'll stick with 8-8 for now.

    After the first Bills game this season I scolded myself for picking Miami because I knew better. I'm still a little hesitant but Spiller is gone, Jackson should still be out, our offensive line is better, getting Ryan mobile should help against the pass rush, short week and a road game for Buffalo, and Kyle freaking Orton. As far as the rest of our schedule I feel like 6-4/5-5 over that stretch is more realistic than 7-3 but just picking the games now that's how I see it. The losses I don't see might come from the Jets stealing one or Chargers beating us in a close one.

    I think it mostly hinges on the next 4 games. 4-0 and virtual lock for playoffs. 3-1, good chance of playoffs, 2-2 or worse and hang it up.

    My recipe for 10-6
    Ws against Jax, SD, Buff, NYJ, Balt, NE, Minn
    Ls against Det, Den, NYJ

    This is exactly how I have it, even down to the suspicions that we could easily get swept by Buffalo...again. Either way it means a 6th consecutive non-winning season.

    @Jags W (4-3) - Closer game than expected, but we notch out a win.


    Chargers W (5-3) -Philip Rivers starts out well throwing for a couple of TDs while Ryan Tannehill hangs on, throwing a couple of his own... our defense wins this one for us in the final minutes of the 4th quarter.


    @Lions L (5-4) - The Lions defense proves too physical for our offense... in adverse conditions playing on the road in front a crowd hungry for their team to make the playoffs, Ryan Tannehill has his worse performance since the Chiefs game.


    Bills W (6-4) - The Bills lost CJ Spiller for the season and may be without Fred Jackson...without a steady run game to help him, Kyle Orton gets swallowed up by Wake and the D-Line... Tannehill has a so-so performance, but puts enough points on the board to finally beat the Bills and keep us from getting swept two years in a row.


    @Broncos L (6-5) - Peyton Manning has some trouble with our defense early on in the game, while we keep the score close until the end of the half.. then Peyton proceeds with his usual hall of fame performance and gets his way with our defense.. Ryan tries to keep up, but the burden placed on our offense proves too much to handle.


    @Jets W (7-5) - At this point the Jets are fighting for Rex's job, and they usually respond well in that situation, but our offense by this point in the season is firing on all cylinders and our defense keeps Geno out of the endzone.


    Ravens L (7-6) - The Ravens have our number and it won't be any different this time. Following an emotional victory against a division rival, we lose a close game.


    @Pats L (7-7) - The team is frustrated after their first home loss since the Packers game and come out flat up in Foxborough. We manage to keep the game tight, but Brady puts together a strong 4th quarter and comes out on top.


    Vikings W (8-7) - We bounce back after two back to back losses and put together a strong showing for the fans in Sunlife Stadium and come out with convincing win.


    Jets W (9-7) - The players are already convinced Rex Ryan is a lame-duck coach and have no desire to play anymore. Another huge win at home, but the Patriots win the division at 10-6 and, in another heartbreaking finish to the season, we lose out on the final wild card spot to the Chiefs because of the head-to-head tiebreaker.


    Bonus:
    Offeseason - Despite Philbin and the coaching staff's best efforts, they are fired and Jim Harbaugh is brought in to run the show.

    Tough schedule. We will be lucky to make it out with 9 wins with this schedule even if we play on top of our game for each of the ahead games (which isn't likely).
