Success in the NFL comes down to a mix of skill and timing, and the Miami Dolphins have decisively checked off the first column in recent years. Head coach Mike McDaniels elevated quarterback Tua Tagovailoa into a high-end starter, the front office invested heavily in elite talent, and the Dolphins earned consecutive playoff berths for the first time since 2001.
And this year, things could be even better for Dolphins fans. Within the AFC East, the Patriots are undergoing a to-the-studs rebuild, the Jets are once again an Aaron Rodgers injury away from disaster, and the Bills are in a transition year (although Josh Allen remains a thorn in the side for Dolphins fans).
Could the Dolphins and their elite offense finally win the AFC East and break through the postseason? Here’s what you need to know to watch the 2024–2025 Miami Dolphins.
