Looks like the Dolphins will have any international games this year — at least in terms of those in the UK/Germany . Full schedule soon enough .

How do you feel about this ? Team doesn’t look a true home game at least . No early wake up calls .

The Patriots do not have one and don't want one.
Let the finny fannies have one so they can host a Superbowl! The team executives like it!

Neither the Pats or Fins have an international game this year. The Fins do have a lot of flight miles though. Sometimes teams can stay on the West Coast for instance to minimize the travel. Let's hope the schedule makers give the Fins back to back away games in close proximity.

Yeah, that makes a big difference. A couple of years ago, The Pats got a game in Denver before they played in Mexico City -
Against the Raiders who travelled from sea-level to 10,000 feet for the game. It was not pretty!

If they play in LA/San Fran I'd consider going to both as I have a cousin out there. Would be a cool trip!

Ah ya the patsies are given every break so no need to go there.

Dolphins have the toughest schedule (for QB's) in the NFL this year?

"• The value of Tua Tagovailoa is on the rise after the Dolphins acquired Tyreek Hill in the offseason, but his schedule is the toughest among quarterbacks. Part of that has to do with a schedule that includes a pair of games against the Bills and Patriots, plus one game apiece against the AFC North (Browns, Steelers, Bengals ranked 20th or better against fantasy quarterbacks last season). This could affect Tua’s rise to stardom.

The Fins need to become a difficult matchup for other teams. That's how they can overcome a tough schedule.

The more I see Tua deal with the negativity and criticism, the more I respect him as a person not just a QB. He is as classy as it gets. When he succeeds it will be very rewarding for fans who believe in him.

Tua has dealt with adversity since day 1 as an NFL QB. He is 13 and 8 as a starter and has a lot more talent around him now. You would think he had a losing record on a great team the way some people talk about him. Let me clue a few people in: In years past his Oline protection and running game weren't as good as they will be this year. It will make a difference.

Apparently he's also finally healthy. His strength coach just said that he can work on other things besides rehab now. His arm strength is also back to his Bama days meaning he'll be a lot better zipping the ball in there. Can't wait to see the results.

"The Dolphins start with the Patriots, the Ravens, the Bills, and the Bengals. That is a combined 39-29 record, with two division champs and a wildcard team in the first four games. The Ravens were the worst of the group, finishing at 8-9 last year, but are always a team that can beat up on the Dolphins."

If the Dolphins start 2-2, that would be a big start!
