Playing well into January is an unfamiliar sight in the present for a franchise with a history of past success. Since the 2001 season, the Dolphins have reached the NFL playoffs only twice.

But things appear to be trending positively in south Florida, as the Dolphins finished 10-6 last season in their second season with coach Brian Flores at the helm. It was a five-win improvement from his first season, and it was only the second winning season for the Dolphins in the previous 12 seasons. As if that was not notable in its own right, the winning season occurred after a 1-3 start. But the promising campaign ended short of the postseason, as results on the final day of the regular season did not pan out as they needed to.

Will we see the Dolphins return to the postseason for the first time since the 2016 season? NFL futures odds place them sixth in line for the AFC title behind the Kansas City Chiefs, Bills, Baltimore Ravens, Cleveland Browns, and Tennessee Titans, and they slot in second in the AFC East behind the Bills. That indicates that they are expected to, at minimum, be in the mix for a postseason berth. Much will depend on the progression of second-year quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, who will be under pressure to perform for a team with playoff aspirations.
