Now that the Miami Dolphins' 2024 regular season schedule has been released, it's time for the obligatory game-by-game predictions.

These should be viewed as a baseline more than hard-set predictions because things obviously will change — and maybe quite a bit — between now and September and even more so between now and the time of each game.

With that said, here are game-by-game predictions from both Fan Nation Dolphins Publisher Alain Poupart and Sports Illustrated NFL writer Matt Verderame.
