Is there any scenario where a Bills win next week might clinch a playoff spot?

 

i know it's not just everyone else losing, due to other tie breaker scenarios if we were to lose to Miami.

 

just curious.

 

Yeah a win in NE and a Ravens loss and Bills clinch entry into playoff

I don't see these playing out . Titans could very well lose out, but I think LAC will win and BAL will win both. Titans needed to beat SF for Bills to have a realistic chance. It's a long shot now. 

 

Yeah Chargers will win why?  Because the looked so great against KC lol

No, I don't think they can. It would only give them 9 wins. 

 

A Ne win and Balt loss next week Bills will clinch an entry into playoffs

A New England win and a BAL loss puts the Bills in?

If Chargers lose to Jets next week they are donzo. If we and the titans end up at 9-7 who gets the tiebreaker?

This has next to no chance of happening. Thanks for the update.

The guy asked if there is a chance to clinch playoffs  next week. Yes there is so doesnt mean anything that you think it has no chance of happening

Pretty simple

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

If I understand this correctly, we mathematically can't be eliminated next week, even with a loss to NE. Correct?

Yes. Jets have Petty and OAK is pretty much a joke. Chargers had a bad game, but they're better than those teams

Are they better than the Saints? Don't let today's final score fool you. The Jets almost beat the saints. I say it's a coin flip when they play LAC.

Right? I like how we're considered 1-1 at best by all these posters yet all these other teams are somehow automatically considered winners of their last 2. Makes sense.

Also, you can never underestimate how a team plays in a divisional game. If OAK or any other team has the chance to play spoiler in week 16 or 17 against a division rival, you don't think they're bringing everything they have to try to win?

After going through the NYT simulator, it just hit me that I was cheering for the wrong team a little over an hour ago. Needed the Titans to win that game in SF. It's a longshot now, but we would have been in good shape if the Titans could have held on. Garoppolo to Goodwin got them in fg range...ouch.

Garoppolo to Goodwin is a thing.

I see what you are driving at.... a 9-7 threeway tie between the Bills, Chargers and Titans with the Titans winning an NFC game... but actually our best bet is still very simply having more wins that LAC and TEN. 

 

I think TEN lose out unless Doug plays his scrubs in week 17 and if the Titans win that game they are in.

Yes, their best chance is now Chargers lose one and TEN loses both. Would have been Chargers win both, TEN loses both if Titans won today . That seems more likely outcome to me given the Chargers and Titans remaining opponents.

So Buffalo controls its own destiny now?  If they go 10-6 they make it?

Not quite but likely
