You play the AFC teams that finish in the same place as you in their divisions. For example:

We finished first in the AFC South last year, so we play the Ravens and the Broncos, even though we wont play any other teams in the AFCW and AFCN.

Its like what another poster said, we usually finish in the same place as them so we have to face them. On the years that we don't finish same place as them, we usually end up playing the afc west so we face them regardless.

This season is the first season since 2007? that we havent faced the raiders.

Yep, we've played them every year and they all are pretty much nail biters except for this last one and they year where Arian Foster started for like the first time with us. This goes all the way back to our first game of the season in 2003, Andre's rookie season, when The Dolphins were favored to go to the Super Bowl with Ricky Williams and everyone thought for sure we would lose that game. Instead we walked out of there with a last second Kris Brown FG win.

I'm pretty sure We've played the Dolphins 6 times, and I'm not sure they've all been consecutive.

We did not play Miami in 2002 (unless you count preseason),2004, 2005, or 2010.

Yeah, no. I can say we did not play them in 2010.

You don't even need to look at the years we played them. You just need to llok at the record. 6-0. We have been playing 10 years this coming season. So that's 4 season we have not played them. C'mon man.....check your facts before you post!
