I'm telling everyone, Miami is going to make the playoffs.

 

If they had pulled off that win in Mile High, I'd be with you. I still can't give them that credit yet. I think we're in better shape even with the difference in remaining schedule. This team is just starting to roll.

They're in their easy stretch, just like we went through

 

The Fins are starting to click. I could see Miami getting to the playoffs and beating Indianapolis much easier then they would Cinci. Miami has a good defense and a manageable offense that scores points. They're not a weak team.

 

Absolutely, with their schedule it will be a cake walk...

KC/SD will get in there, too.

Meh. I can see them losing to Baltimore and New England. 9-7 at best. Their remaining schedule win % is skewed by 2 Jets games.

You know what's fun about the NFL now? You can take all the advanced stats/analytics guys to the bank (or betting window if you prefer). Cleveland: soft schedule, overrated journeyman QB. Proven correct. Cardinals: good team, benefited from a lot of situational luck. In the process of being proved correct as Atlanta blows them out today. Rams: really solid team suffering from horrible luck (including QB injuries) vs Raiders (crappy record because they are a crappy team): proven correct today.

Sending vibes for a MNF loss their way!

If Miami making it means Cleveland doesn't make it, then I am all for it. I had thought for a while that Pittsburgh would seal up a playoff bid but they just can't seem to navigate the course to success.

I'm not saying they're bad, you're right they're talented. I just not a fan of Philbin and assume he'll find a way to !@#$ it up.

Cardinals did lose Carson Palmer for the season. Big difference between him and Stanton.

They played some games without him earlier in the season and they did fine. Sure Palmer is better but the team is still decent.

That KC game is going to haunt us. Should have won. After they lose tonight it could have been us in that final playoff spot but now they have the tie breaker

Too bad there are eight more games. I can see the Bills 10-6 or 11-5 this year.

They are going to beat Denver, GB, and NE??? You dreamer!

This is basically the Bills scenario. Denver and Green Bay you are going to have to win one of those two games. A split puts you at 8-6. If you are at 8-6 you then have to win against Oakland (Very manageable) to move to 9-6, at 9-6 you have a chance to make the playoffs. Beating New England isn't going to be easy but there is a possibility that they won't need the game and they might rest starters.

 

Either way you have to split next two which is a tall task. 9-7 will likely be not enough to make the playoffs. Still the team will be playing relevant games in December not too bad.

stats, stats, stats, to much would of, should of, could of, just "suit up, show up" and let the chips fall where they may, simply put that's why they play the games one at a time, playoffs or not Bills are moving in a positive direction, and that's all the true beliver need, think of the past and enjoy the present, dream happy thoughts of the future

New England has never rested starters in Week 17, since BB became coach, no matter what their playoff status was.

Very true. If we can make it to week 17, and be playing in a game that actually means something, it will be unbelievable....Even the Pats, with something to play for, have shown they can be beat. Yes, it will be a TALL, TALL task to go into Foxboro and win, but man just think how that will feel!!!

 

When's the last time we won in Foxboro? Just curious....
