djp14150 Posted December 8, 2019 Posted December 8, 2019 Up to date playoffs.... for billsto win win the division they need to win out and have the division outright which means new England needs 2 other loses or win out and have Miami beat NE this buffalo have better division record for WC..the win next week and only one other team can be 10-6...so pittsburgh needs to lose a game, Tennessee needs to beat oakland. then with ten and Houston both 8-5 and fo to play twice. Ten needs to sweep to win the division because of hou will have better division. if buf, pit, and ten are tied at 10-6. Pittsburgh gets#5 by better conference record thrn pit and ten pit has better common games. Thrn buf vs ten buffalo gets #6 by h2h.
Taro T Posted December 8, 2019 Posted December 8, 2019 26 minutes ago, Boatdrinks said: I think so, because raiders can run table and block Bills out if both 10-6. I think Bills might want Titans to win out now that HOU dropped an AFC game to Denver today. I know a 3 way tie at 10-6 with TEN and HOU is bad for Buffalo . Not positive that it is. If Tennessee wins, then 3 of the 4 teams the Bills needed to win this week to clinch will have done so. (The Bills being the sole holdout of the 4 sadly.) Unless beating Baltimore was crucial for tie breakers including common opponents, a single Bills win the last 3 weeks should clinch (again, assuming Tennessee holds on and Oakland loses). Because any win from here on out improves the conference record for the Bills.

MAJBobby Posted December 8, 2019 Posted December 8, 2019 If Tennessee wins today. Bills in the playoffs with a win Sunday against Steelers. 3
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted December 8, 2019 Author Posted December 8, 2019 (edited) By Josh Katz, Kevin Quealy and Rumsey Taylor Dec. 8, 2019 Updated 4:34 p.m. ET The Buffalo Bills (9-3) beat the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving Day, raising their chances of making the playoffs to 95 percent from 84 percent. A wild-card berth is very likely, but why not think about winning the division? Their Week 16 matchup against the division-leading Patriots matters most for that goal. So far still sitting at 95% and holding the 1 and 2 game buffer on the WC. NO NEED TO PANIC!!!!! https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/upshot/buffalo-bills-nfl-playoff-picture.html Edited December 9, 2019 by SlimShady'sGhost

The only other defense with a DVOA in the top 10 is NYJ, and that was week one. Pitt is ranked above Baltimore. We’ve struggled quite a bit against defenses ranked up there. Much worse than a coin flip and leaning to bad.

Pretty sure OAK can block out Bills if they run table and Bills are 10-6 with win vs NYJ. So yes , TEN Edit : just checked playoff machine . Definitely want TEN to defeat OAK Edited December 8, 2019 by Boatdrinks
Brianmoorman4jesus Posted December 8, 2019 Posted December 8, 2019 This Steelers game today paired with a loss to the ravens is going to really screw our season here. I think our next 2 games are incredibly difficult and I’d be surprised if we win either. Might be in big trouble now

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted December 8, 2019 Author Posted December 8, 2019 Chiefs 23 Pats 13 thus far Lets go Mahomes!!!!!!!! keep the pedal to the metal!!!!!
bills6969 Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 Looking like 3 teams (Bills, Steelers and Texans/Titans) for the 2 wildcard spots. Just beat the Steelers next week and lock our spot up please. 1
Do The Reich Thing Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 Given that the Texans and Titans play each other 2 times in the last 3 games, the Bills need one win in their final 3 games to get a playoff spot.
JXCOL3 Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 If we win out and NE loses tonight and to BUF, do we win the division? Or do we need NE to also drop a game to MIA
BigDingus Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 Pats just lost in an eerily similar fashion. 4th down in the redzone, down 23 to 16, just over a minute left, need a TD to tie it up. Fail to convert. Back to back losses, and 21 home winning streak over. If Allen and the Bills are going to redeem themselves, they need to go into NE and rise to the occasion. The Pats are beatable. The division title still up for grabs. The offense crapped the bed tonight, but they have an opportunity to prove this Bills team is more than just a product of an easy schedule. Beat the Pats and send Brady limping into the post season (and hopefully into retirement shortly after ?)! 1
DefenseWins Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 (edited) Just beat Pittsburgh already! We're the better team and we play very well on the road. No panic here folks! https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2019-nfl-predictions/ Edited December 9, 2019 by DefenseWins

Or do we need NE to also drop a game to MIA I think at that point it comes down to division wins, so yeah, losing to Miami would give us three nod. If not, it comes down to common opponents right? We lost to the Eagles, they beat them. We lost to the Browns, they beat them. We both lost to the Ravens, so that's a scratch. Even if they lose to the Bengals somehow, they're still up on us there. So yeah... losing to the Dolphins looks like the only real way we can take the division aside from them aside from straight up better record.
