mikemac2001 Posted December 18, 2017 Posted December 18, 2017 Hmm Espn playoff machine says other wise bills can win 2 and finish tied with jags titans and ravens and we won't get in
billsfan2298 Posted December 18, 2017 Posted December 18, 2017 There's pretty much no way that we DON'T make the playoffs. The Ravens will win out and take the 5th seed. The Titans will lose out and finish 8-8, and the Chargers will probably lose one of their next two games. All we have to do is beat the Dolphins, which should be pretty easy, to make it in.
MrB1onde Posted December 18, 2017 Posted December 18, 2017 (edited) ESPN's playoff machine indicates that if Tennessee loses out, Ravens win out, the Bills win one/lose one, and the Chargers win out, the Chargers will beat us out for the 6 seed UNLESS the Chiefs also lose out, which seems unlikely Edited December 18, 2017 by MrB1onde
BreezeMafia Posted December 18, 2017 Posted December 18, 2017 Logically speaking, this is what most likely unfold's: Bills beat Miami, lose to NE Tennessee 1-1 is last 2, probably loses to Rams, beats Jax, as Jax may not need week 17. We get in. I doubt that Baltimore is 1-1 in last 2, most likely 2-0. Playoffs are quite a legitimate possibility for the Bills. We need to take care of business in Miami.

Jax has to beat the Titans in that scenario

But that being said, I try to keep an even keel because of the fates we have suffered before. All good and all, but dude you just rehashed unwanted memories i tried to keep in a small dark remote corner of my noggin lol. 1

Titans sneak away with a win. Well, one thing is for sure......outside of the Titans, the Bills have the toughest schedule left of teams in the playoff picture. 5 minutes ago, MrB1onde said: ESPN's playoff machine indicates that if Tennessee loses out, Ravens win out, the Bills win one/lose one, and the Chargers win out, the Chargers will beat us out for the 6 seed UNLESS the Chiefs also lose out, which seems unlikely I think if any team MAY get tripped up it could be the Chargers, coming cross country on Christmas Eve day, in the cold, to play the Jets. The Jets haven’t given up.

Pittsburgh's 2nd and 3rd string. I am proud of this team though for the heart they show. That Steelers team was stacked. Their backups would have started for many, many teams. That was not a team of scrubs they trotted out there.
MAJBobby Posted December 18, 2017 Posted December 18, 2017 Heck Bills could clinch the playoffs next week with a win and a Balt loss 1
8-8 Forever? Posted December 18, 2017 Posted December 18, 2017 Losing the Pats game is a given, but they still can reasonably get in if they beat the Fins final game. All good. 8-6 feels pretty good. Take it and run for this week.
Max Fischer Posted December 18, 2017 Posted December 18, 2017 13 minutes ago, MAJBobby said: With the Titians loss the Bills now control their own playoff destiny. (Let that sink in) with Two weeks left in the season. They win twice and they are in no matter what else happens across the league. New York Times playoff machine disagrees. If Bills win next two, they need ONE of the following to happen: Week 16 Colts over Ravens Rams over Titans Jags over 49ers Week 17 Bengals over Ravens Jags over Titans in other words, If Ravens or Titans lose or Jags win one.

Depends on scenario But if bills ravens jags and titans finish 10-6 3rd Seed - Kansas City AFC West Champ Wins tie break over Tennessee based on best win percentage in common games. 4th Seed - Tennessee AFC South Champ (Wins tie break over Jacksonville based on head-to-head win percentage.) 5th Seed - Jacksonville Wins tie break over Buffalo and Baltimore based on best win percentage in conference games. 6th Seed - Baltimore Wins tie break over Buffalo based on best win percentage in common games.
Roccityboi Posted December 18, 2017 Posted December 18, 2017 People keep saying that if the Titans lose out and Buf wins 1 more that Buf is in. After playing around with the ESPN playoff machine I noticed that this is not the case. Buffalo will also need for the Chargers to lose at least one more as well. If the Chargers win there two remaining games, Buf wins one more and the Titans lose out Buf gets beat out by the Chargers for the 6th seed. If the the Titans win next week and lose to the Jags to finish 9-7 and the Chargers and Bills also get to 9-7 somehow Buf Gets in. Chargers loss is going to haunt us unfortunately.
Domdab99 Posted December 18, 2017 Posted December 18, 2017 Bills are now in playoffs if they win out or Bills beat MIA and either - Ravens lose once or - Titans win week 16 and lose to JAX week 17 or - Titans lose week 17 and Chargers don't finish at 9-7

MAJBobby Posted December 18, 2017 Posted December 18, 2017 Here it is updated with Titans Loss Thad Brown (@thadbrown7) 12/17/17, 6:34 PM #Titans loss means #Bills now control destiny and make playoffs with 2 wins.#Bills also make playoffs with 1 win and: 1 #Ravens loss OR TEN wins v Rams then loses v JAX OR 2 TEN losses and 1 #Chargers loss#BillsMafia
Klaista2k Posted December 18, 2017 Posted December 18, 2017 What exactly needs to happen for us to get into the playoffs? If the Titans lose 1 more game and we beats Miami week 17 are we in or does anything else need to happen?
