There is no way Miami makes the playoffs.  Far too many teams in front of them to pass all of them.  Sure they could move closer to be on the edge, but I predict after two more games they will be eliminated even if they win their next two games.

None of this matters unless we are 10-7. That being said, at this point it would take a NASA scientist to figure out the tiebreakers. If we do finish 10-7, maybe we get in because we have the best point differential on similar road games or some nonsense like that.

They can still get in at 9-8, which is the more likely scenario.  Winning the next four games is virtually impossible

If they're 9-8 they won't make the playoffs.  If they're 10-7 they have 85% of making the playoffs.  It's that simple no matter how much anyone wants to naysay it.

I don't even think it's "85%" at 10-7.
Yet.

I don't believe it's 85% either but it's getting better as the Bills, Steelers, Raiders and Bengals losses this past week all helped Miami's chances whereas Cleveland and Denver were the only teams that improved their chances. They need for those teams that are in the wildcard hunt with Miami to continue to lose. The good news is that if Miami wins out and all the other teams with a better record than their opponent win out and Cincy beats Cleveland or they tie, Miami will make the playoffs as the 7th seed which wasn't true last week. The bad news with that scenario is that Miami would then have to travel to New England in the wild card weekend after just beating them at home. Not a good scenario for winning our first playoff game in forever.

Facts:

1) Miami cannot be eliminated this weekend no matter what

2) Miami definitely wants KC to win on Thursday.  They want NE to beat the Colts on Saturday.

Not sure about the others.

The CLE/LV game is mind-boggling who they want to win.

3) Miami loses head to head tiebreakers against Buffalo, Indy, and LV

4) That missed PI call in the endzone week three is looming very large right now.

Forget missed calls, we lost to the fucking Jaguars. We would be good right now if Flores didn't have his team quit on him for over a month straight.

The Jets game will NOT be a gimme.

BTW, is it possible to watch football on cbs on an iphone 12?

They probably want the Raiders to beat Cleveland on Saturday as well as the Raiders have a very tough road to the playoffs, Cleveland's chances of being 10-7 are much better.

Mayfield is out with Covid so I guess that helps the Raiders?

Waddle on the Covid list now too so we can probably lock this thread after Sunday.

No, because they will still be in contention.

No, they won't be mathemtaically eliminated but it's over. Beating the Titans and Pats was already a hard task, but maxing out at 9-8 is the nail in the coffin.

I think you're crazy if you think Waddle is the reason we can't beat the Jets.  Your negative attitude doesn't jive with our 5 and soon to be 6 game winning streak.

If you're willing to put in the work to find the links, NFL games stream by lesser than legal means all the time and can be viewed on an iPhone.
