That's what I was saying. In your scenario, the Bills finish with a better record than the Patriots. That's the only way to win the division. @Badasss wanted to know if we win the division if we run the table and the Patriots lose only to us. The answer to that is no because we would have the same record.

much ado

Even if the video doesn't show the sidelines, there still may have been intent to cheat. They may have been apprehended before they diverted from the "main objective" to film the sideline. Patriots might get lucky here as they will be cleared and everyone will assume it was just a misunderstanding.

What do players do with all the jerseys they get from swapping?

Love John Harbaugh.

They lost at home on Sunday Night Football last year.

Yes. Playing a night game is something this team hasn't done, and it's different for the body and mind. The Steelers are used to it. And that environment in Pittsburgh... Sheesh. I've fantasized about this as well, but when did Fitz win in NE? What gives me the most hope is that Flores knows them. No. We lose the tiebreaker to the Patriots in any scenario. The only way to win the division is to finish with a better record than NE. There's been some lazy reporting that has led to a lot of misunderstanding.

Yep. Psychology is a huge part of everything in life, and that definitely includes sports.

He hasn't faced a good defense yet. He will on Sunday.

Says only way we have 100% chance of playoffs is by beating PIT. Other single wins give us 98% chance.

Yep, Joe B is wrong and people are running with it

Either Joe B or the NYT machine are wrong. Unsure which.

Not to burst your bubble, but that is totally false. The Bills have a very remote chance of hosting. They'd need to overtake NE.

Don't know the specifics. Just going by the NYT machine.

Yeah. The Patriots are pulling out trick plays and relying on special teams to try to claw out wins. Our reign begins next year fully. Incorrect. Bills only clinch with win over Steelers. Single win over NE or NYJ does not clinch.

For playoffs, of course. For division, no; they had to win today for that. Everything was perfect today, except the Bills losing.

Individual tiebreakers go out the window when there's a 3-way

Are you sure? Even if the Bills win next week, it could still end up: Texans: 10-6 Titans: 10-6 Bills: 10-6 Steelers: 10-6 Either Texans or Titans win the South, leaving a three-way tie for the Wild Cards. Do we make it in that scenario?

Time will tell, I suppose, but the eye test is pretty clear to me.

This. It's pretty clear to see.

It's more about how we've performed at home overall. Think about how nervy some of those wins were. Cincinnati and Miami come to mind. Others seem to agree and have noticed that we haven't looked our best at home. Do you disagree/think there's nothing to this?

What bad or missed calls went our way? This argument only works if there were equally egregious errors on both sides.

The Bills seem to have a problem playing at home. ALL of their weakest performances this year have been at home. In fact, the biggest blowouts throughout the McD era have been at home. The Bills have even looked nervy during most of their home WINS this season. I'm beginning to think the Bills have a homefield disadvantage, but why? Too comfortable? Too much pressure to play for the fans? 2019: Home: 4-3 Away: 5-1 Also, the Bills have yet to show that they can handle the adversity of success, as they seem to lay eggs at home after big road wins. Similar to their inability to step on throats during a game, they have not shown an ability to do so over the course of a season either. Young team? Growing pains?

2018: Ravens 47, Bills 3 2019: Ravens 24, Bills 17 2020: ?

I agree. And all things considered, kind of encouraging.
