We have not locked up the division IMO--well it's not my opinion it's a fact actually.
If we lose another game before we play MIA on the 6th, and they win their next 2 against their lousy opponents, they can overtake us at 7-5 with a victory against us. We have a chance to overtake the division in the next 3 weeks with victories against the Jets and Fins, but not before.
Since the New Orleans game will be more than a challenge to us, the game at MIA becomes quite important actually. If we happen to lose to the NYJ or NO, then MIA will be playing an important game at home to overtake the division.
Of course we may be able to overtake it back down the stretch, or they may even lose to CAR on Thursday, but there's still a chance MIA has a lot to play for on Dec.6 against us in primetime.
Carolina will beat Miami, IMO. That team is far better than their record and manhandled a good Atlanta team this past weekend. Without Ronnie Brown in there combined with Carolina's ability to run and control the clock, they'll win, plus Steve Smith on Miami's rookie corners.
