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.

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.

A tie, because I can’t physically say I want NE to win.

But I want the division.

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.

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.

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)

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.
