Default Buffalo or Miami - Who are you rooting for?

Not so easy as it seems - Sure Miami is tied with NE and is a game better than Buffalo but you also don't want to see Buffalo start on a little winning streak and possibly still have something to play for in the last week

Miami has a slightly tougher road in the last 4 games so its more likely for them to fall than Buffalo

If Buffalo wins thier next 3 games they have a legitamite shot for playing for a playoff berth come the last week against the Pats - If they lose this week they are toast and all but eliminates them.

Buffalo of course is the likely response here for the team you want to root for today,but who in here is rooting for Miami to win?

Buffalo without question. They win and it is another AFC East loss for the Dolphins and probably give the Pats a game cushion with them and the Bills. The Bills will also have a lot more to play for in that scenario next week vs. the Jets and might score the upset potentially making the Pats the division leader with two games to go. Buffalo wins the next two games and it gives the Pats a huge advantage for the race of the division.

PS the Bills have the most division losses to begin with at 0-3 for the division. So assuming the Pats take care of business at the end of the season, Buffalo cannot win any tiebreakers.

Buffalo..
Miami is still in play for the division title if they win out (which I doubt they will do anyway). Buffalo is on the downward now but maybe they can win this one today

If I had to choose, I would say Buffalo. Would a Miami loss hurt there chances for a playoff spot?

This offseason, it's almost like Belichick is saying, "I'm never going to let that happen again."

Bills, for a lot of reasons.. primarily because of their fans

I think Buffalo would have to win their final four to seriously compete for the division. I don't know if they have it in them to sweep all three division opponents. Maybe 2-1 (I hope with them winning their next two division games). It is far more conceivable that any of the other three can win the division with another loss (or two in the Jets case). I think that is too much to ask for with the Bills with all their injuries.

A loss in the division would certainly hurt their playoff chances. Miami losing would make the last three games a must win for them and even then they might not get in. 10-6 might not be enough to get into the playoff this year. The Dolphins have a worse division record than the Pats and Jets at this point and already have a worse conference record than the Ravens or Colts.

A Buffalo loss means that they would most likely be out of the playoffs with only a slight, slight chance of getting in.
