Well, maybe this is going to be the year that the Miami Dolphins make their return to football respectability, after all: they have just hung on to defeat the New England Patriots 24-20. Now Miami stands at 8-6, guaranteed at least to not have a losing season. And their last two regular season games are against divisional foes the Jets and the Bills, both behind the Dolphins in the standings. They are both very beatable. As far as the playoffs are concerned, Miami's biggest challenge is Baltimore, but the Ravens have a pretty challenging end-of-season schedule and might not be able to keep up. Also, San Diego seems to be surging...but Miami beat them already and has the tiebreaker advantage should the two finish with identical win-loss records. But Miami lost to Baltimore a few weeks ago, so they need to best them with their record.
