The upcoming 2024 season will be one of the most important seasons of the Mike McDaniels-Tua Tagovailoa era. Since 2022, after Dolphins hired Mike McDaniels to pair him up with Tua, Miami’s offense has skyrocketed to the top of the league. However, in the last two years Dolphins have lost in the wildcard round.

This is also Tua’s last year on a rookie deal and both the sides have yet to agree on contract extension. However, these talks have not kept Tua away from the team as he attended OTA’s in May.

The main focus of this team in 2024 is to reach the playoffs and win a playoff game. Many critics have suggested that Dolphins need to upgrade at quarterback position if they want to get over the hump.

The Miami Dolphins schedule was released on 15th May and they have the ninth easiest schedule in the league. However, this team’s success would solely hinge on how they perform in the playoffs.

Miami Dolphins Key Games 2024–25

According to the Miami Dolphins schedule, the team would be playing eight home games and nine away games.As per the NFL’s rotation policy, Dolphins would be facing teams from AFC South and NFC West in the upcoming season.

Week 2 - September 12, 2024 - Miami Dolphins vs. Buffalo Bills

There is always a mental pressure on the losing side of this divisional matchup for the remainder of the season. When top two teams like Buffalo and Miami reside in the same division, games like this usually decide on which team will get the home court advantage in the playoffs. All pressure is on Miami as not only are they home team here but they are 1-8 against Buffalo since 2020, which also includes the playoffs.

Week 4 - September 30, 2024 - Miami Dolphins vs. Tennessee Titans

This is the second matchup against an AFC South team for Dolphins after facing the Jaguars in opening week. Titans are coming into the season with a new head coach and 2nd year quarterback along with some new pieces on offense. Early September games like this are fruitful for Miami as Titans players and coaches would still be in the early process of gelling with each other.

Week 7 - October 20, 2024 - Miami Dolphins @ Indianapolis Colts

Colts finished last season with a winning record despite an early season injury to their rookie signal caller Anthony Richardson. However, Richardson is fully healthy and ready to create havoc with his dual threat ability. Pair that with Shane Steichen, who showed last season why he is considered one of the brightest offensive minds in the game.

This game has playoff implications written all over it as both teams have the personnel and players to reach the postseason. This will be the third matchup against an AFC South opponent on the Miami Dolphins schedule in the first seven weeks.

Week 11 - November 17, 2024 - Miami Dolphins vs. Raiders

This matchup has fireworks written all over it. Raiders have elite pass catchers in Devante Adams, Michael Mayer and Brock Bowers while Dolphins boast two of the fastest wide receivers in Tyreek Hill and Waddle. However, Miami has an edge when it comes to quarterback position as neither Aidan O’Connell or Gardner Minshew are in the same stratosphere as Tua Tagovailoa. On the other side of the ball, Raiders have a clear advantage due to them boasting one of the top defensive line units in the whole league.

Week 17 - December 29, 2024 - Miami Dolphins @ Cleveland Browns

This game will be one of the most important ones on the Miami Dolphins schedule as it would have postseason implications on the line. Browns with a healthy Deshaun Watson will be a force to be reckoned with. The game would be played in frigid weather, which would be completely opposite from the Florida weather where Dolphins play their home games.

The Browns might have a slight edge in this game due to weather conditions which favors the home team.

Where do the Miami Dolphins play their games?
