The loss last week to the Vikings was a crushing, near-finishing blow for any playoff aspiration. At 7-7, the Dolphins aren’t mathematically eliminated, but they only have about a five percent chance of the final wild-card spot at this point.
The Miami Dolphins are currently ranked the ninth seed in the AFC playoff picture. The Baltimore Ravens are currently projected the final playoff spot. The Colts and Titans are both on the outside looking in from the seventh and eight spots.
So, it goes without saying that the Dolphins need to win their Week 16 game against the Jaguars.
