Statistically speaking, the Dolphins have the 8th toughest schedule. Fortunately, the Bills have the 2nd toughest, the Pats have the 3rd toughest, and the Jets have the 7th toughest, so we're not alone.

Good ol' AFC East.

April 11, 2007, 11:27 AM EDT

A Monday Night Football game against the Pittsburgh Steelers is the Dolphins' lone prime-time appearance slated for the 2007 regular-season schedule.

A copy of the schedule, obtained today by the South Florida Sun-Sentinel from a source, has the Dolphins playing at Pittsburgh on Nov. 26. It will mark the first time Dolphins linebacker Joey Porter plays against his former team after being released by the Steelers this offseason following eight seasons in Pittsburgh.

The Dolphins will begin the season Sept. 9 at Washington before playing their first home game Sept. 16 against Dallas.

The Dolphins other home games are against Oakland (Sept. 30), New England (Oct. 21), Buffalo (Nov. 11), the New York Jets (Dec. 2), Baltimore (Dec. 16) and Cincinnati (Dec. 30). The Dolphins' Oct. 28 home game against the New York Giants will be played in London at Wembley Stadium.

The other road games are against the Jets (Sept. 23), Houston (Oct. 7), Cleveland (Oct. 14), Philadelphia (Nov. 18), Buffalo (Dec. 9) and New England (Dec. 23).

Times for the games will be released later today when the NFL officially releases its 2007 schedule.

Nice info, I updated the original post.

Quite the killer stretch we're looking at after the bye week, which I like seeing at the midpoint of the season, when the players will no doubt need the most rest.

I hate those really early bye weeks, seems to almost defeat the purpose.

no favors from the NFL this year, even if we are forsaking a home game for the London trip - look at all the cold weather road games to end the season

Yup, hate seeing all those away games against cold-weather teams in December.

Maybe it'll work to our advantage this year? I remember last year looking at the schedule and marveling at the fact that we didn't have very many cold-weather games to close out the season...whole lot of good that did. :lol:

For that cold weather, we need both Ronnie Brown and Ricky Williams healthy to we can pound the ball, play solid defense and let our "cold weather" specialist, Jay Feely, make some FG's like Olindo Mare couldn't.
