  • Based on preseason odds, the Miami Dolphins are -155 to make the postseason in 2024-25.
  • The Dolphins have reached the postseason in two straight campaigns.
  • Why Miamiโ€™s defensive turnover could lead to a missed postseason.

Based on NFL odds and Dolphins playoff odds, the Miami Dolphins are predicted to make the postseason this year.ย 

Miami, whose offense returns all skill players from 2023, is -155 to make the playoffs this year. That price implies a probability of 60.8%.ย 

Comparatively, Miamiโ€™s price to miss the 2024 postseason is +130 for an implied probability of 43.5%.ย 

Prediction: Will the Miami Dolphins Make the Playoffs?ย 

I predict the Miami Dolphins will miss the playoffs this season.ย 

Thereโ€™s no denying this teamโ€™s offense counts itself among the best in the league. However, playing in a division with two top-10 defenses โ€” the Bills and Jets โ€” is a steep mountain to climb.ย 

Add in the turnover on the defensive side of the ball, and Iโ€™ll take Miami to miss the playoffs this season.ย
