The Dolphins are a couple wins away from cracking the playoff field. (Getty Images)

DAVIE–There wasn’t much conversation about the Dolphins striving for the playoffs coming into this season, and even 8-8 seemed a overly ambitious. It looked nearly impossible after a 1-4 start, too.
But quite a bit has changed over the past few weeks. Miami knocked down the Jets 27-23 on Sunday for its third straight win, moving to 4-4, and now stands in seventh place in the AFC.
The Dolphins are 1.5 games behind the Broncos for the final playoff spot and two games back of fifth-place Kansas City. With the division certainly out of reach because of New England’s 7-1 start, Miami will have to vie for a wild card spot.
While it seems like the Dolphins do this dance every year, there are legitimate causes for optimism at the moment. There aren’t many teams behind Miami that appear primed to make a run, though Pittsburgh (4-4) and Cincinnati (3-4-1) have the potential to do so.

0-0 stop looking at the "play-off picture" just look at what's immediately in front of you.

San Diego is gonna be tough. Rivers likes to sling it and Gordon is having a monster season
 
I think this SD game is a must win. We cannot afford to slip behind .500
Vance needs to go to his bag of tricks to get more pressure on Rivers.
Getting to him early and often is the way you beat the Chargers.
They have Gordon, but they love to pass the ball.
 
We definitely have had Chargers number the past 5 or 6 years. Hope it continues on Sunday!
 
Right now we need to be rooting against Pit and Bal as well as Denver. Probably not a chance in the world that Cleveland beats the Ravens in Baltimore this week but there is a good chance that the Cowboys beat Pittsburgh. Broncos @ Saints.

Oakland is winning the west...they showed that schedule they have and barring injury to a mission critical or o line attrition it's a wrap
 
I believe the phins would currently be the 7th seed which makes every AFC game crucial.

I'd like to see them stomp a mud-hole in the ewes but its not a priority. That said, 2 of my supervisors are niners fans, so....

My 2 favorite 2 teams are the phins & whoever is playing putzburgh.... even new england.
