MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (AP) The Miami Dolphins will be in the playoffs no matter what, but there's plenty at stake in their showdown with AFC East rival Buffalo on Sunday night.The Dolphins' chances at earning the AFC's top seed ended when they were last weekend. But a victory over the Bills would give them their first AFC East title since 2008 and the No. 2 seed in the conference.If Miami loses, it would fall to the No. 6 seed and likely would need to win three road playoff games to reach the Super Bowl.Playing at home could bode well for the Dolphins, who are 7-1 at Hard Rock Stadium.ADVERTISEMENT Miami had three turnovers at Baltimore on Sunday and gave up a season-high 491 yards as breakdowns in communication on both sides of the ball stalled momentum. Tua Tagovailoa was 22 of 38 for 237 yards and two touchdowns. Tyreek Hill caught six pa ses for 76 yards but dropped a potential touchdown when he was wide open in the end zone on Miami's second drive.Hill attributed the drop to poor concentration.I will say, I never get that wide open, Hill said. The ball just floated so long. It was just like, Get here to me. I just have to make the play, man.When the Dolphins lost at Buffalo in Week 4, they turned the ball over twice and were 3 of 10 on third down. Hill had 58 yards receiving, his second-lowest output of the season.The great thing about this team is we have such tremendous leaders, Hill said. "You know what, Im looking forward to seeing how we bounce back. I know coach (Mike McDaniel Nick Yorke Jersey ) is going to get us prepared, and its going to be what we need heading into the playoffs. Its going to be fine.Miami will need to overcome a plethora of injuries.Jaylen Waddle did not play against Baltimore because of a high ankle sprain, and it's not clear whether he'll be available Sunday night.

Cornerback Xavien Howard (foot) is also likely to mi s the game.Regardle s of what were dealing with personally at home, or an injury to our body, this game is going to kick off when it kicks off and its going to go down, veteran left tackle Terron Armstead said.
