FSN currently labels the situation long-shot path. That is based on modeled weekly leverage: The path is extremely narrow in the current simulation and likely requires both wins and outside help. It should not be read as an official NFL clinching statement.
What if MIA wins its next game?
The current saved forecast does not yet contain a reliable own-game conditional branch.
What is the best seed still showing in the model?
No playoff seed clears the current display threshold.
