KOKBILLS Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Only a 3 Page thread so far... Still, quite possibly the biggest waste of Wall space ever... Waiting for the next one...Will it be about pigs flying or hell freezing over??? Discuss amongst yourselves... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dante Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 I don't want this team to have any hope of playoffs. The very sight of this post is chilling to me. I don't want ole Ralph to have any justification for keeping a cheap ass coaching and gm staff. Somehow, backing into the playoffs would be like winning the SB for Ralph, and were stuck with Perry or some other newb training on the job to be a head coach at the expense of us. Forget it.

Trader Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Now I'm probably going to get booed off this board for posting this, but I'm reminded of Jim Carrey's line from "Dumb and Dumber" ... 'so you're saying there's a chance!' Buffalo can still win the AFC East, and while it would require a total meltdown from New England, it wouldn't be unheard of - remember San Diego won the West last year with an 8-8 record, and then beat the Colts in the first round of the playoffs. Buffalo's playoff possibilities: 1. Buffalo needs to win out (New England, at Atlanta, Indianapolis) 2. New England needs to lose out (at Buffalo, Jacksonville, at Houston) 3. Miami must lose out (at Tennessee, Houston, Pittsburgh) 4. New York cannot win more than one game (Atlanta, at Indianapolis, Cincinnati) That would put Buffalo and New England at 8-8 and Miami and New York at 7-9. According to this Yahoo! scenario generator, that gives Buffalo the division. Is it likely? No. But it's possible. And as Yogi Berra once said, "it ain't over 'til it's over." I don't know about all of you but I don't quit on the playoff dreams until Buffalo is mathematically eliminated. However, Buffalo cannot win a Wild Card because it is impossible that all the 7-6 teams lose out because they play one another. Plus, Buffalo does not own the tiebreaker over Jacksonville (the current #6 seed) due to the 18-15 loss on November 22. Jacksonville plays New England, so one of those teams will win - whichever team wins that game basically eliminates Buffalo from reaching that particular qualifier, whether it be the East or the Wild Card. If the Bills beat the Patriots this week, root for the Jaguars next week. http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/playoffscenari...amp;16=00044000 Don't even worry about it until they beat New England Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reddy Freddy Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 I, for one, love posts like this. One thing Bills fans have not had enough of lately is HOPE. To give a little hope around the holidays is great in my mind. So what if it's only 1 in 1000? There's still HOPE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope can drive a man insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berndogg Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Just because the bills are the bills i could actually see everything breaking so the bills could make the playoffs at 8-8 then losing to indy's 2nd string in a win and ur in game and finishing 7-9.

Bleed Bills Blue Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 The division title will come down to the final tiebreaker, and we'll lose that coin toss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cotton Fitzsimmons Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 If that is all that needs to happen. Where do I go to get playoff tickets! Red "Rooster Cogburn" esta en la casa! That's a reference that some of the classier professional posters like YE OLE would understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
