2020 Record: 10-6

2021 Venue: Hard Rock Stadium

The NFL is expected to expand the regular season to 17 games.

When it becomes inevitably official, the NY Giants newly added 17th game will be against the Dolphins in the 305.

The Dolphins were one of the NFL’s best non-playoff teams in 2020. Of course, that’s an award no team would want and it means absolutely nothing as an accomplishment.

Brian Flores has instilled a new culture and a sense of belief into his football team that has lacked for several years. Despite being one of the NFL’s doormats for much of the 21st century, this is one of the most talented Dolphin teams in awhile.

With a dynamic offense and an impressive, loaded defense, Miami has positioned itself well to compete with the Bills and Patriots for the AFC East crown in 2021. There are high expectations for year two quarterback in Tua Tagovailoa along with the team’s mountain of draft picks over the next three years.

An opponent the Giants don’t see often, New York hasn’t lost to Miami since 2003. This will be a gritty contest between two up-and-coming teams led by former Patriot/Bill Belichick disciples.
