Here are some season predictions for the 2020 Miami Dolphins, as they look to create some magic with an overhauled team.
The Miami Dolphins are going to have a bit of a new look in 2020, with some fresh faces from the draft. After a 2019 campaign that earned them a No. 3 overall draft pick for Tua Tagovailoa, what will he bring to a Dolphins offense in MUCH need of a big year?
Following Miami’s schedule release, let’s take a look at who they will face, and make a few friendly predictions along the way.
Weeks 1-4
Prediction
Miami Dolphins

New England Patriots
27
Foxborough is a tough place to play, regardless of what version of the Patriots you’re getting. While it’ll be a chance to get a look at Jarrett Stidham as their new quarterback, there may not be much to get excited about. Bank the Pats on this one, it’s your safest bet.
Prediction
Buffalo Bills
14
Miami Dolphins
17
This week sees Miami welcoming the Bills. Any win is always welcome, but a divisional victory at home carries a sweeter celebration. Buffalo is the favorite in many eyes to dethrone the Patriots atop the AFC East, so holding serve against the Bills at Hard Rock Stadium would be a big win for Tua Tagovailoa and Co.
Prediction
Miami Dolphins
27
Jacksonville Jaguars
7
These two teams got a taste of each other last year in the preseason, where Miami picked up a decisive victory. The Jaguars are typically scraping the bottom of the AFC South, paving the way for another win for Miami, who needs to take advantage of these types of matchups this year. They should be able to keep Jacksonville on a leash and get the victory.
Prediction
Seattle Seahawks
31
Miami Dolphins
13
This week proves to be a big test, as the Dolphins welcome one of the toughest teams in the NFC. Russell Wilson and the Seahawks make the trip south for what could potentially be a lopsided afternoon. Don’t expect a lot out of this game from the Dolphins, who are overmatched in almost every phase.
