The Miami Dolphins won their fourth straight game on Sunday, beating the San Diego Chargers and moving to one game over .500. The win keeps Miami in the middle of the AFC Playoff picture as well, solidly in the hunt for a Wildcard spot. The win, coupled with the loss by the New England Patriots on Sunday night, also puts the idea of an AFC East division title back on the table for the Dolphins, who are now two games behind the Patriots, with one head-to-head meeting still to play.
How does the AFC look, playoff picture wise? We update the standings, with the Cincinnati Bengals still to play in a Monday Night Football contest.
