Five thoughts of the Dolphins playoffs chances:

1. The Dolphins have a 54 percent chance to grab the final spot of the playoffs, according to playoffstatus.com. Baltimore, which currently holds the playoff berth over the Dolphins, has a 30 percent chance of making the playoffs. The computation comes from projecting remaining games, “with a probability based upon relative team strenghts.” The Dolphins have a 44 percent chance of not making the playoffs compared to the Ravens’ 30 percent chance. Everyone else is a long shot with the Jets having an 8 percent chance to be in third place. The main reason the Dolphins are favored is …
2. The schedule favors the Dolphins. Baltimore’s remaining schedule involves three division leaders and two on the road: at Detroit, New England and at Cincinnati. To tell the significance of road games, only two visiting teams won last weekend (the Dolphins were one of them). Meanwhile, the Dolphins host New England, go to Buffalo and close with the Jets at home. So Baltimore plays two of their final three games on the road, and the Dolphins play two games at home. Baltimore play three teams with winning records and two sure playoff teams while the Dolphins’ only remaining opponent in that category is New England. The Dolphins final games against the Bills and Jets will be against teams who are playing with one eye on next year.

I like the % chance stuff these sites come up with. Who knows really.
 
Unfortunately, Baltimore may face the Lions without Bush, owns NE and Cinci may not have anything to play for. Bottom line is we had opportunities early and let them get away. Every game counts and losing to the Ravens and Bills at hime may bite us in the ass when it's all said and done.
 
I think Baltimore has issues stopping the pass vs. the Lions.
 
The problem for me is that this Flacco's time of year. He is money.

He has been great in December and January . . . at the same time, there is no Anquan Boldin this year, Pitta is just coming back from injury, Ray Rice hasn't been good all season and their defense is not as good as it has been in years past.

It would be an impressive win out . . . no question.

We just gotta focus on Sunday and go from there . . . this isn't the first time this team has been in this position in the last 5 years. We've blown it every time.

Yep, those two hurt for sure with Baltimore hurting the Fins the worst as there is no head to head worry with the Bills. But living in the Tampa Bay Area, that Buc game.....man 0-8, green qb....it has been rough to live in these parts :)
 
we were beating the Patriots, what, 17-0 at half time last game? We just need to be consistent...run the ball...run down the time. Cover the pass on defense.

I cant see the Ravens losing to the Lions. Like another post said, we messed it up big time by losing games we shoulda won...like against the Bills, Panthers, Buccaneers. We shoulda had those..

You can't see the Ravens losing in Detroit, Monday Night, in primetime? Not saying they will lose, but that is a game the Lions should win.
 
Dolphins need to handle their ****ING business. NO EXCUSES win out the remaining games...
 
We obviously don't have a lot of deep thinkers here, or someone would have questioned how the Ravens have a 30% chance of making the playoffs, and a 30% of NOT making the playoff.

What is the other 40%, they disband and join European soccer league?
 
The Patsies will beat the Crows because they'll be pissed after losing to us.
 
The Ravens nearly **** the bed against the Vikings without AP.

Ravens away record: 1-5

Megatron, Joique Bell if Bush can't go, the lions defensive front

I believe Detroit will win since they know this is their shot at a division title if Rodgers doesn't come back this week for the Packers
