The NFL schedule for next season has just been released, so here are the three biggest match-ups for the Miami Dolphins heading into their 2014 schedule:
Sunday, October 12th vs. Green Bay Packers
The Dolphins will need every ounce of defensive wherewithal that they can muster to silence Aaron Rodgers and the Packers' vaunted offense.
If the Dolphins can force Aaron Rodgers into a mistake or two, along with putting a cap on Eddie Lacy and the Packers' ground attack, this could be a lynchpin interconference win for a Dolphins team ready to take that next step.
Sunday, November 23rd at Denver Broncos
To make a run at an AFC championship, the Dolphins may have to beat the current reigning AFC champions in their own house.
The Broncos are the measuring stick of the AFC, like it or not, and starting quarterback Ryan Tannehill can begin his legend in South Florida with a spectacular showing against Peyton Manning and the Broncos.
Sunday, December 14th at New England Patriots
The Dolphins ended a seven-game losing streak to the Patriots in December of last year, knocking off the Pats at home by a count of 24-20.
The Dolphins need a signature win to become AFC contenders, and knocking off the Patriots in New England for the first time since 2008 is the way to do so.
