Miami Dolphins 2016 schedule

The Miami Dolphins have their schedule and now so do we. Miami will open with a trip to the west coast against the Seattle Seahawks and will wrap it up at home against the Patriots.

More from Dolphins News

• Tua Tagovailoa practicing with teammates is everything a leader does
• 4 offensive tackles Miami Dolphins could draft at 51
• Miami Dolphins don’t need CB help but these 5 could be available at 51
• 4 players that could replace Wilkins if Miami Dolphins don’t re-sign him
• Miami Dolphins have a starting point with Wilkins after Simmons deal

As expected the Dolphins will open the season with two games on the road. Seattle and in week two the team will travel to New England.

The Dolphins will return home in week three against the Cleveland Browns and will again, like in 2015 hit the road again to face the Bengals. Miami will then have a three game home stand with games against the Titans, Steelers, and Bills which will wrap up their October as they head to a week 8 bye.

Miami will return from that bye week with another home game giving them four games in Miami in a row with a bye week mixed in. That return game will be against the Jets. Miami will then travel to the west coast and the NFL has done them the favor of putting them in back to back west coast games. First San Diego and then the Los Angeles Rams a week later. The back-to-back schedule will allow the team to stay on the west coast for the two games.

Miami will then head back home to face the 49’ers in week 12 and then travel to Baltimore in week 13. The schedule will get harder as the team inches towards the season conclusion. They will play at home against the Cardinals and then go on the road to face the Jets and Bills in two late season cold weather games. They wrap their season at home against the Patriots.

Miami will play only two primetime games. September 29th against the Bengals on Thursday night and the Jets on December 17th in New York on a Saturday night. Miami will not make a Monday night appearance this season. The Dolphins will also play on Saturday, December 24th but the NFL will host most of their games a day ahead of Christmas.
