While playoff odds are currently unavailable for 2023, the Miami Dolphins own the 12th-best odds to win the Super Bowl. Miami’s +1800 odds to win the AFC ranks as eighth-best in the conference. 

Do the Dolphins Have a Chance to Make the Playoffs?

Yes, the Dolphins certainly have a great chance to return to the postseason in 2023 and the expectation will be for Miami to return. In his first season, Mike McDaniel showed why he was such a covered offensive mind. His scheme helped Miami finish with a top-10 offense for the first time since Dan Marino was behind center.

The addition of Vic Fangio should do wonders for a defense that had its struggles at times last season. The downside for Miami is that there really are no gimmies in an AFC East that includes the Buffalo Bills, Bill Belichick and an improving New York Jets franchise. The schedule won’t be an easy one either as the Dolphins play seven teams that made the playoffs, including each of this past year’s Super Bowl participants. 

Where Can I Bet on the Miami Dolphins to Make the Playoffs?

You can bet on the Miami Dolphins to make the playoffs at the majority of sportsbooks once the odds become available. Although NFL playoff odds are currently sparse, most sportsbooks list it for NFL futures wagering before and during the season. Fanduel and DraftKings are among the popular sportsbook for NFL wagering. 

You must be 21+ and present in a state where sports betting is legal. Unfortunately, sports betting is currently unavailable in the state of Florida. You'll want to visit nearby states with legal sports betting if you want to place a bet on the Dolphins playoff chances.

Looking Ahead: Dolphins Playoff Picture

The Dolphins playoff picture is looking somewhat promising despite concerns at quarterback. Fresh off their first playoff appearance since 2016, expectations for Miami will be even higher in 2023. After a significant drop-off defensively, head coach Mike McDaniel hired Vic Fangio to serve as defensive coordinator. 

Although staying healthy was a big issue in 2022, Tua Tagovailoa had the best season for a Dolphins quarterback since Dan Marino. With Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle out wide, Miami has a dynamic duo of receivers, but was inconsistent in the ground game and up front. 

Defensively, the Dolphins should be stout up front for a long time with Bradley Chubb and Jaelen Phillips rushing the passer. Xavien Howard took a step back in the secondary, but there are a lot of good, young pieces in place. Miami should be a playoff contender in 2023 and may have the best chance of challenging the Buffalo Bills for the AFC East division crown.
