As soon as I heard the NFL was expandimg the playoffs to eight teams in each conference, I told anyone in earshot that this eighth slot will be earmarked for the Patriots. From there, they'll make an improbable run to at least the AFC title game because, um, Patriots and the NFL needs the ratings revenue.
Looked at how psyched the Dolphins are, knowing they're winning with Houston's money. Regardless of how often they win, the Fins still have the Texans' Top 5 pick.
