Miami doesn't play well in the cold Expand @NoHuddleKelly12 I've actually been using the "Any Given Sunday" equation/calculator. It is not a full proof computation, but sometimes the resulting figures have been advantageous to football teams named "Bills" and some college basketball teams named "Wolfpack" and "Wildcats"....albeit it helps when you have Italian coaches in basketball.

Expand This would’ve been a great add-on to visiting my fam up in Western Pa, but I can’t get out of town at the moment, similar issues. Plus I’m still traumatized from the last time I ever saw the Bills play at old 3Rivers—the 1993 Monday night beatdown 0-23...I should prolly look at getting into some therapy for that 1

Don't get your hopes up no division this year Expand I think there is a small chance. Their offence is bad enough to let most teams hang around.

It’s almost as bad as my Patriots trauma. Hopefully, the team can help us with that the next couple of weeks because the only therapy is wins. 1

The AFC results yesterday have rewarded the Bills for their season thus far and they control their own fate. Win one more game and they’re in. Steelers are a bad matchup for the Bills lack of firepower on offense. Expand What happens if the Steelers and Titans win out and we only win one?

I am sure ties or something could screw things up a bit. Solid chance though. I would rather us just take care of business. I don’t really pay attention to these things until week 17.

Bring it Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 The blitzing that the Ravens brought should certainly help our offense prepare for anything the Steelers will do. Should be a good game!!

Should be a good game!! Expand They should have been preparing for it for weeks now, as it’s the one thing they’ve consistently struggled against. I’d expect them to be well versed in screens, cover zero blitz beaters by this point.

If you want to go on the extreme low end of odds, the Bengals have about a 20% chance of beating the Pats and the Dolphins have a similar chance. 1

I think there's a very good chance we lose this game if the offense brings less than their A game. The Steelers are favored, so there's that. This is by NO MEANS some kind of game you can chalk up as a win. People don't want to think about it, but it's entirely possible the Jets game becomes a must win game to get into the playoffs. Those are just the facts. 1 1

Playing a night game is something this team hasn't done, and it's different for the body and mind. The Steelers are used to it. And that environment in Pittsburgh... Sheesh.

On 12/9/2019 at 11:51 PM, Badasss said: If we run the table and the Pats beat Miami and Cincinnati, we win the division, correct? Expand No. We lose the tiebreaker to the Patriots in any scenario. The only way to win the division is to finish with a better record than NE. There's been some lazy reporting that has led to a lot of misunderstanding.

Expand The Bills would get the 6th seed. The Bills are in no matter what if they win any one game in the next 3 weeks. At least that's how I understand it. Beating Pitts locks us in the 5th seed regardless of what else happens and still gives us a shot at the division. On 12/9/2019 at 11:51 PM, Badasss said: If we run the table and the Pats beat Miami and Cincinnati, we win the division, correct? Expand No. If we run the table and the Pats LOSE to either Miami or Cinci then we win the division. On 12/10/2019 at 12:30 AM, Giuseppe Tognarelli said: Yes.
