Division Leaders: HOU: 7-1 Woop! Play lone possible division spoiler Colts twice in the final three weeks of the season. Hold tie breaker over Ravens and Broncos, will face Patriots Dec 10th. BAL: 6-2 Play Steelers twice in the upcoming 4 weeks. Play Broncos week 15. Hold tie breaker over NE. NE: 5-3 Hold tie breaker over Broncos. Reasonably easy schedule remaining, aside from HOU and SF. DEN: 5-3 Lost to HOU and NE, and face BAL Dec 16. Schedule eases up with CAR, KCx2, and CLE remaining (5 combined wins). Wildcart Hunt: Ind 5-3 HOUx2 and NE are major challenges, but that is tempered by matchups against Bills, Jags, Chiefs and Titans. Pit 5-3 With Chiefs, Browns (twice), Cowboys, and Bengals on the calendar and two pivotal head to head matches against the injury plagued Ravens, the Steelers are the best bet to unseat a current division leader. SD 4-4 All 4 wins have come against teams below 0.500, including two from the hapless Chiefs. Broncos won first matchup, and the schedule doesn't get easier, so the Chargers can probably forget about making a play for the division. Mia 4-4 Seem to be as middle of the pack as their record indicates. All 4 wins also against losing teams. Sea, SF, NE x2 remaining suggest the Dolphins won't finish above 0.500.
