Following the <a href="https://www.thephinsider.com/">Miami Dolphins</a>’ win over the <a href="https://www.dawgsbynature.com/">Cleveland Browns</a> on Sunday, along with the <a href="https://www.buffalorumblings.com/">Buffalo Bills</a>’ loss to the <a href="https://www.dailynorseman.com/">Minnesota Vikings</a>, the AFC East standings shifted to put Miami on top and the Bills fell to third place.</p> <p id="s0iuKv">The <a href="https://www.ganggreennation.com/">New York Jets</a> stayed in the second position, despite the movement of the Dolphins and Bills. The <a href="https://www.patspulpit.com/">New England Patriots</a>, who, like the Jets, are on their bye week, continue to sit in the fourth spot. The division, however, is the only one in the league with all four teams above .500 on the year. </p> <p id="tuB1IW">The Dolphins are 7-3, the Jets and Bills are both 6-3, and the Patriots are 5-4. New York slides ahead of the Bills after beating them head-to-head earlier in the year.</p> <p id="iEtsam">Currently, the <a href="https://www.sbnation.com/nfl-playoff-picture">AFC playoff picture</a> has the Dolphins in the second-seed position, just behind the 7-2 Kansa City Chiefs.
