Nope. On the road in Foxboro again. https://www.espn.com/nfl/schedule Sure as hell hope Flores has them better prepared this year. You know BB will have his team ready.
I like being at New England week 1! Should be a win and it means we won't be back in December. Really hoping for an @Bills game in September or October as well. Also, I saw on the Fins Facebook channel that we're playing October 17th in London against Jax (week 6). At least we're the "away team" in that one.
So, @ Bills after the bye (assuming bye after week 6 in London). Two weeks to prepare for the 2020 division champ. Cool, cool.

This has been the main problem with Flores since he got the job. Both years he broke camp with a team completely unprepared for NFL game action. Baltimore could have beaten us by 60 if they didn’t let up. And that Patriots game to open last year was ugly ! Overall since Flores got here the Dolphins are a combined 2-10(.167) in the first 6 games of a season. Dreadful starts. You could say the rosters lacked talent to succeed, but he has managed to go a combined 13-7(.650) in the last 10 games down the stretch with the same teams. He needs to get this team ready to start on time this year.
Going to try to make the trip down for the Giants game, first week of December is perfect, almost smack between the holidays and the weather will start getting miserable in Jersey.
Forget the bye week, this is a glorious schedule, ZERO away games in Dec and Jan against our northeast rivals, that's BIG, huge. After Thanksgiving our coldest game will in Nashville and the other is in a dome.
Yeah, I saw that Ronnie. That's good, no doubt. I also noticed the home games are a 1 o'clock start time in the early part of the season. That's good. Nice stretch of home games end of November into third week of December too.
I agree, favorable schedule into December and January. At first glance, I see 7 or 8 potential losses just off gut reaction....and I counted Jax as one of them (which we should win). I'm so darn excited to get this season started!
I can't remember ever having a schedule this favorable. Ever. And for the record, I love the December bye week. Guys, this is awesome.
I was really looking forward to maybe going to the game in Vegas. Unfortunately looks like the cheapest seats at the moment are $800. And seats on field-ish level are $5000. Sorry Fins, not worth it. I'm not paying super bowl prices for that.
Also, only three away games are time zone crossers. Vegas, London and N'orleans. Last yr they traveled to West coast three times
Week 7 matchup is ugly. Fins coming back from England week 6. Falcons coming off a bye week 6. If the Falcons are even half way decent this year....that’s a scheduled loss. Other than that, looks good. The big wigs still don’t think we are prime time I see...
Why are tickets that expensive? I always thought the tickets were reasonably priced in the States, far more so than over here.
As far as Vegas specifically, probably because it's Vegas and it's a brand new stadium. But, I suspect that's gonna be the new norm. Keep in mind, NFL teams lost a lot of revenue at the gate last year. They're gonna want to make up for those losses.
Vegas tickets are always going to be through the roof because of out-of-towners wanting to hit Vegas and see their team play in the same weekend, and throw in that Dolphins fans travel well, it's going to be a very hot ticket.
