So is this summary correct?

If Miami beats the Jets and both the Ravens and Chargers win, Miami is in?

Or

If Miami beats the Jets and the Ravens lose Miami is in?

yep

There is no way Miami can make the playoff without winning next week, correct?

If baltimore and SD lose, miami can still make the playoffs if they lose.

Win and get some momentum heading to Cincy. Grin

Incorrect.

If Miami loses, they are out automatically.

^ To clarify, if Miami loses, the Jets will have the same record as they do (8-8) PLUS the Jets will have the tiebreaker over the Dolphins.  And 3+ way tie uses division record FIRST to eliminate the Dolphins.

So, even though the Jets can't make the playoffs, they will kick us out by winning.

If Miami loses, move the franchise to Las Vegas and call them the Rollers.

So as somebody said earlier, if the Ravens and Dolphins both win at one o'clock, the Chargers will be eliminated and have nothing to play for Sad

I think Cincy is our best bet.  They don't want to have to play Baltimore two weeks in a row.

The wildcard is so crazy this year.

I have a sad feeling it won't matter what the other teams do. Rex Ryan is a great motivator and he will give some teary eyed speech about this being his last game and wanting to go out a winner and Philbin will give some awful speech about doing our best and it's going to be a repeat of the Buffalo game.

Like someone on ESPN said, Miami didn't even get off the bus for this game. Why will they do it next week?

I had a premonition something like this was going to happen.  After such a draining win against a top team, it's hard to come back the next week.

Hopefully, after this crushing loss, they can rebound and win

I'm not trying to polish a turd, because we came out totally flat today and looked really bad all the way around.

That said, the Bills are a bad matchup for us.  I'm much less afraid of the Jets.  We lost to the Bills twice in similar fashion.  We just can't handle their rush.  I think NY at home will be a much easier task.

The other things needed will be more difficult.  We need either Cinci or SD and both might be playing for nothing but pride.

The Dolphins need to focus on beating the Jets.

The scoreboard watching is what fans do

So in summary.....

Miami makes the playoffs if they win AND

the Ravens lose

OR

the Chargers win.


This means that if the Dolphins win at one this Sunday we will still have something to watch for as the Chargers take on the Chiefs.
