It hasn't changed much for Miami.
Before the Pats' latest improbable squeaker, Miami needed to win its last four games and hope that the Pats would lose one more, to someone else.
Miami is in the same position today.
All that's changed is that the Pats were once again just barely underplayed, this time by the team (Colts) that seemed most likely to provide the toughest game.
Instead of four chances for the Pats to lose, there are now three: against the Jaguars, Jets and Bills.
The Jaguars beat Indy and lost to Tennessee by only 7, both games in recent weeks. Division games can be tough no matter what the circumstances (for Miami too, of course).
Five of New England's last six wins have been by six points or less.
If the Fins keeps winning, they'll be in the playoffs. If they go 4-0, they'll probably be within a play of the AFC East title every week, the way the Pats have been playing.
Don't worry about it. If Miami wins next Sunday, the division race stays tight.
