Dolphins and remaining SOS

[brumdog44]

Remaining AFC contenders SOS through the second Thanksgiving day game:

Bengals (2nd toughest overall, toughest in AFC): .620
New England (4th toughest, 2nd toughest in AFC): .603 (even AFTER the Vikings game, their SOS would be .571, which would still be 4th toughest overall and 2nd in AFC)
Buffalo: (8th overall, 5th in AFC): .557
Jets: (10th overall, 6th in AFC): .534
Miami: (15th overall, 10th in AFC): .507
Tennessee (16th tie overall, tied for 11th in AFC): .500
Chargers (27th overall, 14th in AFC): .438
Baltimore (31st overall, 15th in AFC): .366
Kansas City (32nd overall, 16th in AFC): .364

The one seed is within reach. Playoff games at home would be ideal obviously

I'd be happy if we take the east but it won’t be easy....we can lose one game and still take the east as long as that loss is not to Buffalo

 

[The Bopkin]

Boy did the Lions botch that game today. They could have really run that clock down at the end and made it tough for Buffalo, and taken that game to OT.
But whatever. What a tease- I didn't expect Detroit to win, but then I thought they would. Then the game ended how I figured, and I was upset that what I thought would happen did happen when for a second it seemed like the opposite would happen.
No, i will not translate that above sentence to Spanish.

Top seed is attainable but without room for error. Can’t see the Chiefs being seriously challenged outside of their visit to Cincinnati, especially if Chase is back by then.

I think our most realistic best case scenario is the #2 seed. Could potentially set up a 1/5 Chiefs/Bills second round matchup which would be a dream pathway for the Dolphins. Ideally, you’d like to avoid having to go through both of those teams in the playoffs.

Win lose record rally doesn't tell the whole story. Dolphins having to travel to west coast two weeks in a row then travel to Buffalo for a third straight road game is brutal. Going to be tough stretch.

I legitimately see us finishing see us winning the East. Jets suck, obviously. Bills haven’t been impressive as of late. Honestly see us finishing with the #2 seed, and with some help even the #1. How great would it be for Tyreek? to beat the chiefs in the afc championship

Sorry about the misplaced ?

Miami will probably stay out West like they did in '16.

Did you see where the Chiefs have the easiest schedule?

Did you see where the Chiefs have the easiest schedule?

The AFC west is really a let down this year.

Miami’s SOS is a little deceptive having the Texans on the schedule.

That and the Packers game are the only “easier” games and can never rule out Rodgers.

Yes. I think we are better than the chiefs. But let’s see how it plays out

We are a better team then anyone on our schedule. I do see two losses

We may be. But those 3 losses without Tua is going to kill our chances at the #1. The Chiefs have such an easy schedule remaining.
