The Miami Dolphins’ playoff hopes hinge on the results of two games on Sunday.

First and foremost, the Dolphins (8-8) need to win on the road against the New York Jets (4-2). Secondly, they need the Kansas City Chiefs (15-1) to beat the Denver Broncos (9-7) on the road. If both things happen, the Dolphins will have the AFC’s No. 7 seed in the playoffs.

Both games are scheduled for a 4:25 p.m. kickoff.

How do you think the games will unfold? Will both outcomes end in the Dolphins favor? Will Miami win but the Broncos spoil their postseason hopes? Or will the Dolphins fizzle out in their regular-season finale?

Vote in the poll below to let us know your thoughts.
