The Miami Dolphins are heading into their Week 15 schedule with an outside shot at the playoffs. They need some help to get there, but it is not impossible to think that Miami could find themselves in the postseason for the second-straight year.
The rules are pretty straight forward. If the game has no bearing on the Dolphins’ playoff chances, we do not include it in here. Most of the time, that is an NFC versus an NFC team, though this week started off with two eliminated teams facing off. Of course, this rule is not perfect because strength of victory and strength of schedule tie breakers can get involved, but trying to come up with every solution along those routes is deeper than we will go in this rooting guide.
