The Buffalo Bills will win the AFC East with a win over the Miami dolphins this weekend. They also may find themselves out of the playoff picture entirely with a loss. The gravity of this week’s game certainly isn’t lost on its participants, as the Bills and Dolphins both know exactly what’s at stake.
Sure, Miami has already clinched a playoff spot, but they would clinch at least two home playoff games with a win this week (and, obviously, a win in the Wild Card round of the playoffs, too). Given that Miami is 7-1 at Hard Rock Stadium entering play this week, that’s clearly a big plus for the Dolphins’ Super Bowl hopes.
