    based on AdvancedNFLStats simulations. Miami wins east followed by NE and Jets. All three make playoffs. Houston, Denver and Baltimore are 1,2,3 seeds.

    Computers have no anti-jet bias.

    Also Jets have pretty much the same chance to finish 1st and 4th.

    Jets have no excuse for not getting a wildcard. The Bengals suck, the Chargers suck, no afc south team is a threat so the last spot will go to afc east assuming the steelers take the 5th.

    When the Dolphins win the AFCE over the Pats I'll think that 3 AFCE playoff teams is possible. Until then, not possible.

    9 wins will get you a wildcard, and I wont be suprised if 8 does it to.

    The only chance to meet would be the AFC Championship game...

    This kind of reminds me of the the "projections" feature in Yahoo FF that insists my team will finish at 10-4 and tied for first. I'm 3-3 and there's almost literally no chance that happens.

    Our best chance is for the Chargers to continue to drop off and one of the Steelers or Bengals (most likely Bengals) to drop off. Then we can definitely make the WC spot. Still we have to take care of things on our end first.

    No, because the Bears don't have the #1 seed.

    No, I don't see the AFC East sending 3 teams.

    Improbable but not impossible.

    Any projection that picks the Phins to win the division is seriously flawed. :beer:
