The Miami Dolphins are looking for a bounce-back season in 2022, even though they were over the .500 mark in 2021. Miami is a member of the AFC East Division, and it could be one of the most competitive divisions in the NFL this season.
The regular season win total betting lines are out, and those odds suggest that it could be much of the same for the Miami Dolphins this season. There are some big expectations set for this franchise, but it will be time to put together wins on the field.

Last Season
The Miami Dolphins finished the 2021 season with a record of 9-8, and that was good enough for just third place in the AFC East. Head coach Brian Flores was fired after missing out on the playoffs with the Dolphins, and it was decided that this franchise needed a fresh start.
Miami did win eight of their final nine games of the season, but it was too late to find a way to sneak into the playoffs.
Dolphins Key Losses Heading Into 2022
While most experts would agree that the Dolphins improved tremendously this offseason, there were still some big losses. Wide receiver DeVante Parker is arguably the biggest loss, and running back Duke Johnson is no longer with the team either.
Jacoby Brissett has also moved on, and he won’t be around as the backup quarterback during the 2022 season.
2022 Miami Dolphins Team Preview
Tua Tagovailoa is back to lead the offense for the Dolphins, and he now has Tyreek Hill to throw the ball to. Miami was already starting to look like a great offense at times in 2021, and they have the ability to be explosive in 2022.
The defense will be tested in 2022, especially against some great offensive teams on the schedule. Miami has plenty of talent, but they will have to prove that they can win games in the division.
2022 Miami Dolphins Schedule
Six of the 17 games for the Dolphins will be against AFC East opponents this season, just as it is every single year. The Dolphins will also play all four teams from the AFC North and NFC North Divisions.
The final three games for the Dolphins will be a home game against the Houston Texans and road games against the San Francisco 49ers and Los Angeles Chargers.
2022 Dolphins Regular Season Win Total Prediction
The Miami Dolphins have enough talent to push the Buffalo Bills at the top of the AFC East Division in 2022. Miami went out and made some big moves on offense, and the addition of Tyreek Hill could turn this team into a huge threat.
Even if the Dolphins are not good enough to contend for the division title this season, they should be good enough to get to nine wins at least. Miami is going to be an exciting team to watch in 2022, and they will also be extremely successful.
