Dallas/Miami

[stormtrooper8]

For what it’s worth

This game is a lot more important seeding wise to Miami than it is to Dallas.

Miami is still very live to get the 1 seed, which I think would do them wonders. This also could help them wrap up the division

Dallas seeding is basically not impacted by this game at all

Not sure how much this stuff factors in, but personally this looks like a pretty difficult game and edges/potential motivation levels worth noting

You know as well as I do, it’s a coin flip

Good observation Storm. But I think the extra motivation for Dallas is beating a good team on the road. They get blown out in MIA the doubts will really start to set in? Just my 2 cents.

Miami has that same dilemma having not won against a quality opponent as well.

valid Point JDS. Should be a contested game this Sunday.

Huge game for both squads hard to cap for sure.

Yeah that’s true about Dallas. Could be a bounce back for them

Im just saying the game is meaningless as far as their seeding goes

Dallas will win this game outright man +

We're about to see what Miami is made of. They play Dallas Ravens Bills over the last 3 weeks of the regular season. The Dolphins 3 of their 4 losses have been against good teams Bills Philadelphia KC only Tennessee is the only team Miami has lost to with a losing record. Just saying

Is Hill playing ?

It won't matter. Tyreek Hill's status remains unclear despite his participation in Thursday's practice.

should be a lot of pts imo

It’s a total mismatch Miami should bury them

I like the home team in this particular match up, as I would like Dallas if they were home.

 

[JDS]

I see Miami running it down their throats for the second straight week like Buffalo just did.

I see Dallas dominating this game Sunday.

Head to Head Jerky vs Pipe

I’m picking Miami

Bigger game for the Dolphins

Cowboys don’t need this one seeding wise

Also in Miamk

Tricky for sure. I think one needs to consider their rivals as well:

*PHI. Has a very easy run-out.

...Dallas should be VERY motivated for the game at Miami. A win in Miami would leave them with Det/Was.
...Just ONE Dall loss could leave them in the identical spot as last year. 2nd in Div and (unjustly) playing a road game at TBay (or Atl/NO).

*BUF. Bill schedule is very easy next two weeks. So much so that Miami should expect the Bills to win next two.

IMHO, Miami is in a tough spot. Even if they beat DALL, they have to go to BALT. Just one loss means the division will be decided on the final game vs BUFF.

If you play it out on game-theory, I really think Dallas is the team that SHOULD win. Miami is very likely locked into a Division-decider on that last week.
