Regular Prediction: 2 Primetime games, maaaaybe 3. Home vs. New England, Away vs. Pittsburgh seem likely. If there was another I'd guess Colts or Ravens.

Will be interesting who they pick to play the Ravens in the opener since it has to be on the road. Broncos seem like the obvious choice Peyton and a Playoff rematch. Don't think they'd make them go play the road opener against a Division Rival, which they would've played if it was in Baltimore.

Figure the Jets will only get the customary 1 that we got last year (prob Jets-Bills). Though they could make Jets-Pats primetime...just because. I expect the Colts to get a bunch.

 

Ugh, I hope the Jets get none. Going a full season without watching them would be a blessing.

 

I personally find watching implosions to be somewhat enjoyable. :shifty:

 

I would predict 3, 2 Monday and 1 Sunday. The Sunday would be against New England.

 

Doesn't the NFL ensure that each team gets 1 nationally televised game? I thought that was part of the deal with the Thursday night games.

 

Yeah, each team will get at least one Thursday night, Sunday night, or Monday night game.

 

Yes, like last year when they stuck Dolphins-Bills and Colts-Jaguars on TNF.

Some have wondered if they'll put the Ravens opener against Miami. But I'd say there's an 80% chance its Denver.

 

it's tricky with the preseason games this year, we played atlanta, carolina and tampa the last few years, but this year we will face each team in the regular season

 

Why would you not want to watch Butt Fumble: part deux? You know its coming.

 

^^^^ This.

I don't think the Dolphins have won a regular season Primetime game since a Thursday Night game 2 years back against the Panthers. (Ricky Williams went off)

 

^^^^ This. That game against the Titans last year when they basically were daring the Jets to win and Sanchez kept giving the ball away was great.

I don't think the Dolphins have won a regular season Primetime game since a Thursday Night game 2 years back against the Panthers. (Ricky Williams went off)

 

Besides the fact that each team gets at least 1, the Jets are in the biggest market. I say they get at least 2, probably in the first half of the season.

 

Hey i'm just commenting on what you have typed in your signature or whatever its called. sorry this is off topic. But when did we find out about the compensatory pick (166) in the 5th round? and the other one in the 7th round (250)? Thanks to you or anyone else that can answer that question for me. I was expecting 1 compensatory pick, 2 is awesome news! 11 picks! best draft ever. I already have a feast planned with my brother (die hard dolphins fan) and my father (die hard chiefs fan) on draft days. We do it every year, we always take off work. My dad is excited about his team having the number 1 pick, even though his team sucks, lol, but i believe we dolphin fans have more reasons to be excited about this draft!

 

Be fun to hand Baltimore it's first loss of the year in prime time.

It is heavily believed in the TV community that Denver @ NYG will be the first Sunday Night Football game of the year, that rules out Denver for the opener.

 

Canephins, the original OP, I love when you post, tell me that dudes sig pic isn't the coolest version of our new logo?, I'm sorry I can't stop staring at it.

 

You stop that Cane!!!I'm officially obsessed...am I wrong here?, I mean it's fu&$in beautiful, I'd like to hear the old school folks comment on that overall feel.

It's got speed, it looks agressive, the colors are deep and rich, it's just a bad *** cool looking dolphin..

I'd rock a black hoodie with that sh&$ on it...and look good

 

It does look pretty awesome. At first i wasn't crazy about the new logo, but its grown on me. It looks like a dolphin in action. It also looks like an immovable lineman that can only go forward. Low man wins!

 

So I guess your going to turn this thread about the preseason schedule in a logo thread?

 

My bad...one last thing, Steve, even that one of canes doesn't give you a little twinge down there?

 

don't post the whole thing ?

Ooops...Alex beat me to it...

 

on a 5 game schedule, which game is our dress rehearsal game ? if its the 4th, that would mean we play our backups in week 3, when the other team is still playing their starters, thats a good test, to bad its houston though

 

I think it would be the 4th game. My guess is that Week 2 doesn't look much different from Week 1, from a starter's standpoint.

 

I don't think we have enough "star" power yet to get more than 2 games. One of those could be at Jets or at NE. I think because of our ticket selling woes, we won't get a national game at home, but probably 2 on the road.....maybe at New England early in the season and later in the year at Pittsburgh, but I just don't see a home game because of our attendance woes. I'll be very surprised.

 

I just hope we can stay healthy through 5 preseason games this year. I would have rather not played the extra game.

 

No problem, your still my friend!! I know we don't agree about the new logo, but we're just giving our opinions about it. I'm looking forward to the upcoming season!

 

Hmm, if I flip my summer road trip and visit family in Ohio and then go to Tennessee, I might be able to go to the Dallas preseason game.

 

Now that was an awesome game, I was there since I live in Carolina. Ricky Williams (my favorite player of all time) replaced Ronnie Brown since he was injured and put up a huge game with three touchdowns. And it was in November 2009, still have the tickets in my fan room.
