That would mean they host two playoff games before the AFC Championship but also means they wouldn’t have to face the Chiefs until that game, either. Buffalo clinches the AFC East with a win and I’m sure they would rather do it with a W than with a Dolphins loss. Cincinnati Bengals (2-10-1) over Pittsburgh Steelers (11-2) Monday Night Football Detroit Lions over Tennessee Titans (9-4) Sunday, December 20 1:00 p.m. EST New Orleans Saints over Kansas City Chiefs (12-1) Sunday, December 20 4:25 p.m. EST Not w/o Drew. New England Patriots (6-7) over Miami Dolphins (8-5) Sunday, December 20 1:00 p.m. EST Jacksonville Jaguars (1-12) over Baltimore Ravens (8-5) Sunday, December 20 1:00 p.m. EST Houston Texans (4-9) over Indianapolis Colts (9-4) Sunday, December 20 1:00 p.m. EST New York Giants over Cleveland Browns (9-4) Sunday Night Football. that’s some list. makes some games worth watching 2 3

New York Giants over Cleveland Browns (9-4) => Low So, the likely best the Bills can do this weekend is WIN and hope to get an upset or two.

IgotBILLStopay Posted December 17, 2020 Posted December 17, 2020 I havent yet lost hope on a bye (ya ya it is 1-2% probability) - so I'm going to root for Steelers over the Bengals - only if the Steelers win 2 out a 3, we win 3 and the Chiefs win 1 will we have a three way tie for the bye (which we will win). Would be happy to root against the Steelers Week 16 onwards if KC beats Saints in week 15 (then the probability for a bye even with our win over the Broncos becomes a small fraction of 1%). 2

Damn, they all have pretty easy games though, in general. 2

I actually kind of like New England in this game. 2
fergie's ire Posted December 17, 2020 Posted December 17, 2020 I'd like to see the Patriots lose to Dolphins. They still technically have a chance to make the playoffs and I'd like to see that go away before they play us....then maybe the Dolphins can be eliminated by week 17 which will give us an easier path to 13-3. 2
Process Posted December 17, 2020 Posted December 17, 2020 The division race is over. We want the dolphins to win at least the next two games. Whatever it takes to get them into the playoffs in hopes we match up with them They would be the easiest matchup, by far, in the first round. Assuming the Raiders don't get in. 3
CEN-CAL17 Posted December 17, 2020 Posted December 17, 2020 If Baltimore, Cleveland and Indianapolis are all 11-5 at seasons end.... I see all Wild cards possibly being 11-5 Who do the Bills play if we are the 2 seed, or 3 seed?

I think he means he needs the Steelers to be tied with us so he doesn't want them to lose to Bengals and potentially lose out falling behind us giving us the 2 seed but if we tie the Chiefs we lose because of the head to head and don't get the 1 seed. Honestly Bills just need to win everything else will fall how it falls. Edited December 18, 2020 by Warcodered 1
CEN-CAL17 Posted December 17, 2020 Posted December 17, 2020 I think Indianapolis matches up well with Pittsburgh. Should be a great game.

GETTOTHE50 Posted December 17, 2020 Posted December 17, 2020 the patriots have a real shot of beating the fish. belichik went to LA and shut out the chargers, and their offense is much, much better than the fishes will ever be. The chargers o-line is better, the QB is much better, and their RB and receivers are better. plus, we all know he likes to destroy rookie QBs.
EmotionallyUnstable Posted December 17, 2020 Posted December 17, 2020 Chargers Raiders doesn’t matter?

I think you shoot the the #2 seed. However if you settle for the 3 seed you could get a week of rest. Makes that a discussion imo.
