Dolphins Playoff Schedule 2023 (Games, Opponents & Start Times for Miami in Postseason)

The Miami Dolphins have a chance to secure a spot in the NFL Playoffs for the first time since 2016 in Week 18. It's not as simple as defeating the New York Jets, though. Head coach Mike McDaniel's team would need the help of a division rival, but fans are eager to know what could come next.

Here's everything you need to know about the Dolphins' playoff schedule for the 2022-23 NFL postseason.

What Seed Are the Dolphins?

The Dolphins have officially clinched the No. 7 seed in the AFC playoffs. Miami needed to win against the New York Jets in Week 18 to do so, and its 11-6 victory made that happen.

Mike McDaniel's squad ends the year with a 9-8 record and its first postseason appearance since the 2016 season.

Since the Dolphins found a way to secure the No. 7 seed in the AFC, they will go on the road to take on the No. 2 seed during Wild Card Weekend. That game will be against the Buffalo Bills, who won on Sunday and clinched the 2-seed.
