Losman-McGahee-Evans Posted December 12, 2004 Posted December 12, 2004 The first of course is obvious but the second is just as important. We've got to make sure our game against Pittsburgh means nothing to them and they rest their starters. These four final games are going to be nerve racking to say the least.
sweet baboo Posted December 12, 2004 Posted December 12, 2004 so...then you should be rooting for the steelers then
ajzepp Posted December 12, 2004 Posted December 12, 2004 I'd rather Pitt be full strength and angry, and we kick the crap out of them......I'm not expecting us to make the playoffs, so that would be the perfect way to end the regular season.

We can't catch the Steelers, we can catch the Jets. Three behind sounds bad but they have the Steelers and the Patriots left. That is two of the three losses we need them to have right there. One slip up against Seattle or St. Louis and we have them, as long as we win out which is a tall order but its a chance.

I believew we are only realistically competing with Baltimore and Denver for the second spot. For us to have an easier final game it must come against a Steeler team resting it's starters not playing lights out for home field advantage. Again that's my point.
njsue Posted December 12, 2004 Posted December 12, 2004 Pennington might just have been safer on the jests bench healing. PITTSBURGH IS GOING TO EAT THE JESTS ALIVE.

I'm don't think anyone "expects" us to but the easiest path to the playoffs comes through winning out. For us to win out we need all the help we can get. i.e. a Steeeler team NOT playing for home field advantage in their final game against us!

If we don't make the playoffs, then so be it, we made our bed the first 4 weeks of the season now we have to overcome our 0-4 start ...... let's get er done!!!!!!
eball Posted December 12, 2004 Posted December 12, 2004 Or, we could take the attitude that if we can't beat them in our stadium then we probably don't belong in the post season anyway. 156587[/snapback] exactly. it cracks me up that people are rooting for pittsburgh to "not care" about the last game. umm, excuse me, but what's the point of getting into the playoffs if you don't think you can beat another playoff team in your own building? the jets begin a 4-game swoon today at pittsburgh. miami and the giants pull off shockers. the bills win by 30. hey, a guy can dream, right?
YOOOOOO Posted December 12, 2004 Posted December 12, 2004 I for one don't want any "help" I want every team we play down this stretch to give us all they have, I want to play against their "A" game ...... no gimmes .... no zebra "help" ...... no last minute devistaing injuries to our opponents ....... if we make the playoffs, I want to be there because we BELONG there ...... not because we lucked into it.

Were the Bills....I dont think you gotta worry bout that...
BuffOrange Posted December 12, 2004 Posted December 12, 2004 exactly. it cracks me up that people are rooting for pittsburgh to "not care" about the last game. umm, excuse me, but what's the point of getting into the playoffs if you don't think you can beat another playoff team in your own building? 156682[/snapback] Yeah, we can win 3 road games in a row vs. Indy, NE, and Pittsburgh, but please God no don't make us play a Steelers team that's playing for something at our place
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted December 12, 2004 Posted December 12, 2004 Hey, the Jets have to also play NE and I believe St Louis and Seattle?? I can see them losing three of four and the Bill's catching them. I think the Jets have all but locked up one of the wild cards. I believew we are only realistically competing with Baltimore and Denver for the second spot. For us to have an easier final game it must come against a Steeler team resting it's starters not playing lights out for home field advantage. Again that's my point. 156577[/snapback]
mary owen Posted December 13, 2004 Posted December 13, 2004 i too want Pitt at full strength, and would like nothing more than them and us playing for something. It will tell us where we are. Not only that, I think as I said before that this final game is a grudge match to the very core. Mularky/Cowher, Donohoe/Cowher-Pitt, LeBeau/Grey, etc. This will be a big game.
nodnarb Posted December 13, 2004 Posted December 13, 2004 this is the most pussified wish ever. the bills can beat the steelers. how about that? fug the jets.
SACTOBILLSFAN Posted December 13, 2004 Posted December 13, 2004 I don't care how it happens I just wanna watch a playoff game again!
Losman-McGahee-Evans Posted December 13, 2004 Author Posted December 13, 2004 Or, we could take the attitude that if we can't beat them in our stadium then we probably don't belong in the post season anyway. 156587[/snapback] Yeah but then we'd be idiots. Anything can happen ONCE you make the playoofs. It's about getting in.
