1B4IDie Posted November 24, 2013 Posted November 24, 2013 The greatest thing about the Bye week. Red Zone Channel all day! Who else will be watching?
YoloinOhio Posted November 24, 2013 Posted November 24, 2013 (edited) It's like football heaven Without the Bills stress! The following games are presented in order of importance. Here's who to root for in Week 12. Ravens (4-6) over Jets (5-5, No. 6 seed) Buffalo doesn't face New York again, and the Jets are 1.5 games up in the standings. It's the Jets' turn to win in their see-saw season, though. Silver lining: their point differential is the worst in the league, and their conference record is just 2-5. The Ravens will have plenty of chances to lose for Buffalo make up their half-game deficit (full game if they win) on the defending champs. Panthers (7-3) over Dolphins (5-5) Buffalo gets a late season shot at home against Miami that they'll need to win, but the Dolphins have to lose one more game. If it comes against an NFC opponent, it's even better. Chiefs (8-1) over Chargers (4-6) Buffalo is all but assured of not catching Kansas City. The Chargers still have games at Denver and home against Kansas City to worry about, too. It's going to be tough for San Diego to make a run at the final spot. Browns (4-6) over Steelers (4-6) These next two games on our list are close to even for Bills fans. Both the Steelers and the Browns have a win in hand over the Bills, unfortunately. Pittsburgh's schedule looks much easier now coming down the stretch, with games in Baltimore and Green Bay not looking as scary even if Aaron Rodgers is back. Cleveland still has to host Chicago and play at New England, so we'll root for them this week. Titans (4-6) over Raiders (4-6) Tennessee has games at Denver and Indy after their trip to Oakland. The Raiders, on the other hand, travel to Dallas and the Jets in addition to home tilts against the top of the AFC West, though Peyton Manning and company could be resting in Week 16. It's probably a wash, but with a better conference record, it would be better if Tennessee came out on top. Cardinals (6-4) over Colts (7-3) While it looks like the Colts are going to run away with the AFC South this year, root for the AFC team to lose. If nothing else, it will hurt the strength of schedule for the Titans and strength of victory for the Chargers. Patriots (7-3) over Broncos (9-1) Jaguars (1-9) over Texans (2-8) Buccaneers (2-8) over Lions (6-4) Similar to the previous game on the list, the Patriots winning would help Buffalo's strength of schedule. Buffalo plays Jacksonville and Tampa Bay, but not Houston and Detroit, so same rules apply. It's the fifth tiebreaker, but it's a tiebreaker nonetheless. Vikings (2-8) vs. Packers (5-5) Bears (6-4) vs. Rams (4-6) Cowboys (5-5) vs. Giants (4-6) 49ers (6-4) vs. Redskins (3-7) These games don't really matter to the Bills. Play fantasy football.

Max997 Posted November 24, 2013 Posted November 24, 2013 (edited) The greatest thing about the Bye week. Red Zone Channel all day! Who else will be watching? That is a fantastic idea I usually prefer to watch a particular game if there is one worth watching but with today's slate of games Redzone is prob way to go Be good to hv on in the background while I'm hanging drywall Edited November 24, 2013 by Max997
boyst Posted November 24, 2013 Posted November 24, 2013 (edited) Well, I am going to wait for the official red zone channel thread. Would we all agree we want: Panthers over Dolphins Broncos over Patriots Cards over Colts Chiefs over Chargers Browns: Steelers Jags @Patriots Bears @Jets @Steelers Steelers: @Browns @Ravens Dolphins Bengals @Packers Browns I think The Steelers would be safer to have a worse record, therefore we should want Stelers? Jets:@Ravens Dolphins Raiders @Panthers Browns @Dolphins Ravens:Jets Steelers Vikings @Lions Patriots @Bengals Ravens over Jets I think Ravens over Jets? Edited November 24, 2013 by jboyst62
Buftex Posted November 24, 2013 Posted November 24, 2013 I have tried, but I don't think I could watch Red Zone, exclusively, for three hours...would much prefer to watch a single game, flipping to Red Zone during down time in that game. My early game choices here are Carolina/Miami or Houston/Jacksonville.... love watching Cam, and love watching the Dolphins lose...so I am content with that game!

Ravens over Jets I think Ravens over Jets? Based on what I have seen in Cleveland this year, I think it is safer for Browns to win this one. I can definitely see Pitt winning more games down the stretch. Browns have good D, but no QB and first year HC. Steelers have, well.. you know. Don't think either makes the playoffs but Pitt has chance for better record IMO. Edited November 24, 2013 by YoloInTheBlo
Big C Posted November 24, 2013 Posted November 24, 2013 Based on what I have seen in Cleverland this year, I think it is safer for Browns to win this one.

Don't think either makes the playoffs but Pitt has chance for better record IMO. Agreed. They both have some difficult games down the stretch, though.
section122 Posted November 24, 2013 Posted November 24, 2013 Yolo I like your analysis for who to root for with the exception of pats* over broncos. 1. I can't root for them and 2. I want them to lose and play for the division against the Bills week 17!
FluffHead Posted November 24, 2013 Posted November 24, 2013 I wish they could get someone to host red zone that has actually played the game unlike this midget douche Andrew siciliano
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted November 24, 2013 Posted November 24, 2013 I wish they could get someone to host red zone that has actually played the game unlike this midget douche Andrew siciliano Who? Like dan dierdorf? Siciliano is solid. You need someone smart, who is going to transition well. He fits the bill.
FluffHead Posted November 24, 2013 Posted November 24, 2013 I don't know something about him just screams douche to me. It doesn't necessarily have to be a former NFL player. He just doesn't seem knowledgable on anything more than a fanboy level
Mike32282 Posted November 24, 2013 Posted November 24, 2013 Just got DirecTV at my house. Watching the RedZone channel right now. It's definitely Football Heaven!
KD in CA Posted November 24, 2013 Posted November 24, 2013 I wish they could get someone to host red zone that has actually played the game unlike this midget douche Andrew siciliano I think he's pretty good. 90% of the ex-players are awful on the network shows IMO.
NoSaint Posted November 24, 2013 Posted November 24, 2013 (edited) I think he's pretty good. 90% of the ex-players are awful on the network shows IMO. And that's when they are given time to prep - on the fly I can only imagine the train wreck most of them would be. Edited November 24, 2013 by NoSaint
voodoo poonani Posted November 24, 2013 Posted November 24, 2013 Ravens just squandered great field position
