We are all rooting for:
Colts over Patriots to get closer to AFCE Title (it still can happen go figure) IN OUR FAVOR. I want the COLTS to win the AFC SOUTH. Eliminates any tiebreakers with them. 8-6 and 9-5
Steelers over Titans (We want Titans to fall to the Wild-Card take them down 1 game closer to wild card for now seed #3) IN OUR FAVOR 7-6-1 and 9-5
Bengals over Broncos (We want the Bengals to win the division to drop the Ravens into wild card putting them at Seed #4) IN OUR FAVOR 8-6 and 7-7
Raiders over Browns (We want the Raiders to eliminate the Browns (4-6 Conference record dropping them to #12th seed) IN OUR FAVOR 7-7 and 7-7
Panthers over Bills (We want the Bills to lose to match our record dropping them to #10th seed) 7-7
Packers over Ravens (We want the Ravens to lose to fall 1 lower into the wild card #5 seed) IN OUR FAVOR 8-6

5 out 6 went our way.

As for Week 16 This is who we are rooting for:

Bengals over Ravens (We want Bengals to win AFC North and drop Ravens further down) Bengals 9-6 #2 Seed and Ravens 8-7 #8 Seed

Bills over Patriots (We need the Bills to split with the Patriots as it will help us. We need the Bills to win the division not the Patriots). Bills 9-6 # 4 Seed and Patriots 9-6 #6 Seed

Texans over Chargers (We need the Texans to win to drop Chargers out of the playoff picture to 10th seed). Chargers 8-7 #10 Seed

Chiefs over Steelers (We need the Chiefs to win to drop the Steelers to 11th seed). Chiefs 11-4 #1 Seed and Steelers 7-7-1 #11 Seed

Broncos over Raiders (We need Broncos to win to drop the Raiders to 12th seed) Broncos 8-7 #9 Seed and Raiders 7-8 #12 Seed (This will officially eliminate the Raiders)

49ers over Titans (We need 49ers to win to drop the Titans record to even with the Colts they still will be the 3rd seed) 49ers 9-6 and Titans 9-6 #3 Seed

Packers over Browns (This will officially eliminate the Browns) Browns 7-8 Seed #13

Colts over Cardinals (We want the Colts to win the AFC South this will eliminate a tie-breaker with them) 9-6 (Still #5 Seed)

Dolphins over Saints this is obvious (This will put us into the playoffs at seed #7) 8-7

This would truly be a very Merry X-Mas!!! GO DOLPHINS!!!! One game at a time and we make history what a turnaround!!!!!
 
It would suck if the Dolphins, Patriots and a 3rd or possibly 4th team finish tied for the final wildcard spot. If it were just Miami and NE the Dolphins would get the spot due to head to head, but if there's another team involved it could end up by passing head to head and going to best conference record. In that case NE could get the nod even though Miami swept them.
 
Wait so an 8th loss mathematically eliminates a team from the race or just those teams? Do we have to win out?

Pretty much.

49ers over Titans or
Bills over Patriots

Opens up a path where if we win out we’re very likely in. If we don’t get one of those 2 we need upsets and frankly I think it’s bleak. These are the most important games for us after ours. We could know going into Monday night if we pretty much control out own destiny.

No i think divisional ties are broken first and NE would be thrown out. This is why we can’t be in any tie involving Buffalo and really want them to win the AFC East.

We want to avoid ties with Buffalo, Indy and the Raiders. Best if Indy and Buffalo won their divisions and LV gets its 8th loss.

Wow all actually very feasible except Texans over Chargers.
 
Appreciate the break down brother. But hopefully no one expects all this to go our way... once we can start deciding our own destiny... thats when we should start getting our hopes up

Not unless Henry makes a miracle recovery. Tannehill struggling hard to carry with his arm. Given our secondary and how our line is playing I like Miami’s chances. Not to mention I’m sure guys like Xavien Howard still remember Tannehill s tendencies from practice which can’t be good for Tannehill.

Correct. However the playoffs end up, I've enjoyed being in a position to make it in late Dec.
