DAVIE, Fla. -- For the first time in three seasons, the Miami Dolphins (5-7) are essentially out of the playoff race with a month left in the season.
Miami remains mathematically in the hunt. But with an 0-5 division record and 3-6 mark in the conference, the team must run the table and have nearly everything else go right. There are five teams ahead of the Dolphins for the final wild-card spot.
