Title: Who are you going to root for on Thursday? Post by: dolphins4life on November 28, 2022, 06:39:39 pm If you want the Dolphins to take the Division, you root for the Patriots.
If you want the Dolphins to make the playoffs, you root for the Bills. Title: Re: Who are you going to root for on Thursday? Post by: Dave Gray on November 28, 2022, 06:46:44 pm You root for the Patriots, because it essentially gives you a 2 game lead on the Bills, since you have the tiebreaker. And you have a literal 2 game lead on the Pats and the tiebreaker there, as well. ....not to mention that the Bills are the better of the two.
This is an easy one for me. Title: Re: Who are you going to root for on Thursday? Post by: MyGodWearsAHoodie on November 28, 2022, 06:49:27 pm Title: Re: Who are you going to root for on Thursday?

But I want the division. Title: Re: Who are you going to root for on Thursday? Post by: Phishfan on November 29, 2022, 01:29:35 am I hate this question just as I hated the last one. Doesn't winning the division get you in the playoffs? Fucking win win the division is the goal right now.
Title: Re: Who are you going to root for on Thursday? Post by: EDGECRUSHER on November 29, 2022, 08:33:55 am Root for the Patriots and it's not even a tough decision. Our feud with the Pats is basically over now that Brady left and we have been dominating them. If we have a shot at the division, Buffalo is going to have to lose some games.
Title: Re: Who are you going to root for on Thursday? Post by: masterfins on December 01, 2022, 11:49:33 pm Dumb question, why would you not want the last place team in the division to win? (I mean unless it's the Jets, and even then maybe)

(I mean unless it's the Jets, and even then maybe) The argument for a Patriots loss would mean that they're essentially out of the playoff race. (Still mathematically in it, but two games back plus tiebreakers.) If your goal is just to get into the playoffs, but don't care about seeding, a Pats loss is better for that scenario.

Now you're getting it There are two factors in play Since realignment, Miami has made the playoffs only twice. Beggars can't be choosers The Dolphins are just not that good this year. |
