Let's hope:

New England (7-1) wins the East
Baltimore (6-2) wins the North
Indianapolis (8-0) wins the South
Denver (6-2) wins the West

San Diego (6-2) gets a wild card spot

... and all of those teams win as many games as possible (except when playing the Phins obviously), causing the other teams in front of the Dolphins to lose.


The only other teams in the AFC with better a record than the Phins right now are:

NY Jets (4-4)
Buffalo (3-5)
Cincinnati (4-4)
Jacksonville (5-3)
Kansas City (5-3)

So, really the Phins are only 3 games behind 2 teams, 2 games behind 2 teams, and 1 game behind the Bills with 8 remaining games. In addition the Dolphins have remaining games aganist each one of these teams, except Cincinnati.

So, as a fan, I'm now rooting for these 5 teams in front of the Phins to lose as many games as possible and the other 5 teams in front of the Phins to win as many as possible. This has the potential to keep the Dolphins' hopes alive if they can finish the year similar to last year. They can't realistically afford another loss (but even 9-7 could give them a chance with the parity of the mediocre teams if the trend of parity keeps up for the rest of the season)

(this may be sort of a meaningless post, but I can't accept another playoff-less year again... yet). Is this unrealistic or are there other fans with a glimmer of hope that this can still happen?
 
Playoffs ?????

I hope you guys finish 9-7, win your last 7 games, and somehow manage to win the AFC East. That's the best I can do.:lol:
 
Actually it's not that far out of reach if we beat KC tommorow and beat the Jags they will only be up on us by two games. I think KC will lose 2 games making the QB transition. Jags have the same QB situation...it all depends if the Phins can pull off another undefeated streak to end this season and it all starts with tommorows win just to prove the Bears game wasn't a fluke :dolphins:
 
They will need to win out to have any chance of making the playoffs and can't afford another loss but if we beat KC tomorrow I know some people from the media will start saying "Are the Dolphins starting to play like many experts expected them too in the preseaon or is it just an abberation? Coming up next on SC" 50 minutes later " Now what are the Dolphins chances Sean?"
Sean: Chances? You have got to be joking this team is pathetic and Tom Brady is god."

same hear my friend lets start with KC tom!!!:D:dolphins:
 
I am going to root for the dolphins to win every game of this season, next season, the season after and every season until I die. I don't ever want my team to lose to get a better draft selection because there's no gaurantee the third player taken will be better than the 10th.
