Nine is fine for the Miami Dolphins

The Fullback Dive - Written by Benjamin Meyer | Twitter: @BRMeyer7
This Sunday, Dolphins fans will rejoice as they finally get to watch their team play its first meaningful game of the season. With the Dolphins officially finished with its pre-season schedule, the media and fans alike have seen enough training camp practices and pre-season games to put together their preliminary assessments of what the upcoming season holds. 

My outlook on the 2014 season rests on a single number. The Dolphins’ ability (or inability) to attain this number will alone deem this season as a success (or failure). 9 wins is the benchmark, and either exceeding or falling short of this benchmark will have significant implications for the Dolphins’ future. 

So why 9 wins? Why is that where I draw the line? The answers to those questions are actually quite easy. Simply stated, this TEAM is better than last year’s Miami Dolphins that finished 8-8. So with an improved team, there’s no reason to not see an improvement in the win column as well.
