Contenders for 2nd or 3rd in the division? Sure...super bowls contenders...were not even playoff pretenders...im more likely to get in a fender bender.

No shock from me. I actually betted the reverse line at -6.5 for eagles to cover. The only thing that shocked me is that the patriots scored 33 points. I expected the eagles to hold them down to less than 20

It all hinges on Ryan Tannehill and the progression of Gase as a coach. On paper, I absolutely believe Miami is one productive off-season away from contention. It's up to the coaches to translate that onto the field.
I'm excited to see this group bounce back after a disappointing '17. If we learned anything in '16, it's that they are resilient as ****.ripper1961 and KeyFin like this. -
Can Miami win 9-10 games next year? Probably. Will they make the playoffs? Maybe. Can they win a super bowl? No chance.

It's a different sport, but Leicester City in the Premier League (England) in 2016 went from being bottom dwellers to winning the title with a record 5000:1 odds before the season began lol. To put that in perspective, right now the Cleveland Browns are given 150:1 odds of winning next years SB:

So don't just automatically shut the door on winning the SB next year before any of the games are played.eltos_lightfoot, ripper1961, danmarino and 2 others like this. -

I would feel more confident if the front office had a clue.Tannabaum is an idiot and I feel until we find a real GM we will be hoping for a wildcard at best until he is gone.Maybe ross will someday hire the right guy by mistake.

The Phins have a lack of offense skils and struggle at a few defensive spots. If they can fix that in draft/Trade/free agency, they will become a contender. There are some problems which need to be soluted:
1st: find, get or make RT be a decent QB.
2nd: to help getting to this point, build a strong O-Line, who are able to block the run and protect the Quarterback. In 77 games, Tannehill was sacked 213 times (3 per game) and struggles under pressure. Avoid pressure and Tanny is - as PFF presumes - one of the better QBs in the league. In his last season, RT had been under pressure 40 per cent of the snaps. Protect him and he is going to deliver, for sure. So will Drake ^^
3rd: get the TE-Position fixed! Sign two TEs who are able to block the run AND who are able to catch balls especially in Red Zone
4th: get rid of Landry and sign a cheaper slot receiver who can cause some thread in opponent defense
5th: rebuild the LB squad and get a LB who is able to defend opponent TEs ;-)
6th: fix the secondary by adding at least one very good veteran CB
if the Dolphins are able to solve this problems, they surely will be a contender... -
