I have hope that MIAMI will come out strong for their fans on Christmas night.

Yeah, it sounds right. I'm going on the assumption that INDY beats CINCY, but if that doesn't happen I think CINCY over DEN becomes a must. Of my two scenarios, I like number one: 1. SD def. KC (COMPLETED) 2. Miami def. NYJ 3. Cin def. Den 4. KC def. Oak 5. KC def. Jax I think CINCY is much better than DEN, and KC is great at home. I almost want to add (COMPLETED) beside the KC-OAK game, because that is a lock. If CINCY loses to INDY, I think they will be hard pressed to catch us on strength of victory. Because a Miami win gives us an extra two wins (and they have to beat the JETS). Plus, we rack up on the Baltimore game.

Ideally, KC has to finish 9-7. That way, in a big tie with us, DEN is eliminated against KC (assuming DEN is 9-7). Then, KC moves on to us and we beat them. Three-way ties or more are broken by division first. KC has JAX at the end of the year (in Arrowhead). I consider that a lock for KC and even though they lost tonight, they will still be optimistic, because they have the tie-breaker over DEN.

Biggest non-Bills game of the year is Miami vs. NY Jets.

In my opinion, Cincy only has to lose the next two. The strength of victory keeps changing week-to-week and it's really close. However, we still get to play Baltimore and that will help us big time.

I have created a five-step plan on the easiest way to get in. Here it is: 1. SD def. KC (COMPLETED) 2. KC def. OAK 3. CIN def. DEN 4. MIAMI def. NYJ 5. KC def. JAX This leaves CIN in 5th and BUF in 6th. The other option is passing CIN. In that situation, we would need: 1. SD def. KC (COMPLETED) 2. INDY def CIN (COMPLETED) 3. DEN def. CIN 4. NE def. JAX 5. MIAMI def. NYJ That puts DEN in 5th and BUF in 6th. There you have it. And all this is assuming we win out.

Correction to this scenario. Strength of Victory will be won by the Bills. Strength of victory is not worked out the way you calculated it. If two teams end with identical records, combine the records of the opponents in each of the team's wins and calculate the total winning percentage. The team whose opponents have the higher winning percentage wins the tiebreaker. The Bills will get this assuming they beat Tennessee and Baltimore. We also need KC to beat JAX the last game. I have created a five-step plan on the easiest way to get in. Here it is: 1. SD def. KC (COMPLETED) 2. MIAMI def. NYJ 3. CIN def. DEN 4. KC def. OAK 5. KC def. JAX This leaves CIN in 5th and BUF in 6th. The other option is passing CIN. In that situation, we would need: 1. SD def. KC (COMPLETED) 2. INDY def CIN 3. MIAMI def. NYJ 4. DEN def. CIN 5. NE def. JAX That puts DEN in 5th and BUF in 6th. There you have it. And all this is assuming we win out.
