Either way, if Miami wins on Sunday, they are assured to be alive for the playoffs for at least until the end of the SD-KC game.

KC Star reporting that Andy Reid is treating Sunday's game with KC like the final preseason game. Playing lots of back-ups. And most likely no Jamel Charles at all

Yea, but if Miami needs SD to win, SD will have no real motivation to win since it wouldn't matter to them.

Miami only needs SD to win IF the Ravens win, a Ravens win would force the Chargers to also win to make Miami get a playoff berth.

Yea, but the only reason that SD would need to play to win to benefit themselves, is if the dolphins lost.  If the Dolphins need SD to win, then it means SD has been eliminated from any postseason spot and now has no motivation to win.

I always get a good laugh when I hear that the only time a team is motivated to win is when they're needing a playoff spot. I often wonder whether those people have never played any competitive sports in their life, or if they just have memory issues. I've played enough sports to know that I wanted to beat our opponent every time I took the field or court, regardless of what was at stake.
