Where Can I Watch? |

Watching games like Steelers-Ravens just makes me depressed. I think to myself we would be losing 27-3 to either team and how we’re just as far away from being great as we are ready to do a total rebuild, just stuck in this no man’s land
We suck in the cold. My beloved QB hails from such a sunny latitude that Tuscaloosa's annual 1.3" of snow (also approximately his time to throw against good teams) was "cold."
Since we can't build a team that can beat the cold, perhaps the solution is to just get rid of the cold. "Make Buffalo Miami Again."
I'm feeling hopeful, fam.
Why is it when Pattie Mahomes drinks and dunks the ball down the field...it's brilliant QB play...but when TUA does it ...it's lame and boring!!!... according to pundits
Hey everyone. I’m coming from out of town and watching my very first Dolphins game this Sunday. I’m going with my son and father.
We bought a yellow parking pass.
We are not interested in tailgating, but would like to walk around and see the stadium before the game starts.
What time would you recommend we arrive for the 4:20pm game?
Is the yellow lot first come first serve on where to park? Are all areas in the yellow parking going to have tailgates? Is it going to be a problem leaving the game?
Thanks in advance. Go Fins!!
Pro Bowl voting is open. Any fins on your list?
I cast a vote for Seiler knowing that it wasn’t really a pro bowl season but he exceeded expectations in Miami.
We are coming from Fort Meyers for the game and wondering where the best place to park would be? Never been to the stadium before. Thanks in advance!
Open thread to discuss anything Dolphins or not Dolphins.

Dolphins must win against 49ers AND Browns AND Jets
AND Colts must lose to Titans OR Giants OR Jaguars
AND Broncos lose last 2 games OR Chargers lose last two games OR Ravens lose last 3 games.
This is pretty much the path, right?
It's been a rough season for us. But thankfully there's always the Jets to laugh at.
Like tonight, when I saw tonight's Final Jeopardy question and couldn't help laughing at what (to me) felt like a clue writer dunking on the Jets:
SUPER BOWL HISTORY
the only team to play in the Super Bowl before Neil Armstrong's moon walk that has not been back to the big game since
To start, I do not think we will be in the playoffs.
But I like to do math sometimes.
So I've calculated our chances with the Charges pretty clearly going to win this game against the broncos.
We would need either the Broncos or Charges to lose 2/2 remaining. In addition, we need the Colts to lose 1/3.
The odds of one of those scenarios happening is ~38%. Which yes, that means even if the Dolphins win all 3, it's only 38% chance.
If the broncos would have pulled this out, it would be 65% as we would only need the Chargers to lose 1/2, and the Colts to lose 1/3
But essentially we all know the dolphins winning all 3 is far from a guarantee (about 12.5% likely), so I calculated it out and the chances of the first scenario where the dolphins games are undecided (as in we do not know the outcome yet) is ~2.3%
Do with this information, what you will. I am watching individual players to see who wants/deserves to be here next year.
P(Lose 2 games) = 0.5 × 0.5 = 0.25
P(Broncos OR Chargers) = P(Broncos lose 2) + P(Chargers lose 2) - P(Both lose 2)
P(Broncos OR Chargers) = 0.25 + 0.25 - (0.25 × 0.25)
P(Broncos OR Chargers) = 0.4375
P(Win all 3) = 0.5 × 0.5 × 0.5 = 0.125
P(Lose at least 1) = 1 - P(Win all 3)
P(Lose at least 1) = 1 - 0.125 = 0.875
P(Both) = P(Broncos OR Chargers) × P(Colts Lose 1)
P(Both) = 0.4375 × 0.875 = 0.3828125
On his exit he had mentioned that Miami Players don't work hard and party too much etc. I never bought into that, however seeing how well their D is playing(top 5), now I'm beginning to wonder if it really is a culture thing down here. Or a Mike McDaniel being too soft on everyone. It does seem like Mike is way to loyal to certain guys, for example:
Danny Crossman not being fired last year after special teams unit were ranked 30th.
Mostert not being benched or reprimanded sooner for his fumbles that heavily contributed to both those games loses.
Liam Enchinberg. Just... why are you still here?
Protecting Tua too much. Tua is his own worst critic. We get it. However he was coached by Nick Saben. Saben! Tua can and should take a tongue lashing just like the rest of the team, if they get one at all from McD.
We have too much talent to be stuck in the purgatory that we are now.
