The Bills control their own destiny

Absolute joke of a non call on Diggs there. 

 

That was a huge 2nd half spark for our team on both sides of the ball. I hope they carry that over to a 4 game win streak. If we play like that 2nd half the entire way out, sky is the limit. 

It’s sad really that one officiating screw job in one game can pretty much sink a teams whole season

The refs did not sink us.....we sunk us.

I agree...the Bills should have been brave to make the same throw they did to get TD for Davis and Knox.  They played conservative in that last 45 seconds of regulation

I think the fact that the Bills didn’t show up the entire first half has far more to do with the loss today than any bad calls from the refs later on. But yes the refs sucked. They always do against us. But we didn’t show up.

If by "we" you mean our own coaching staff, I agree with you.

Just want to put things in perspective,  we're the ******* Buffalo Bills,  we been here before,  we're alive and the only team stopping us is the Buffalo Bills

They don’t control their own destiny though. Pretty sure that they need help from other teams. IOW, they need the cards to fall "just right" for them to get in, even at 11-6. Correct me if I'm wrong....

You are incorrect unfortunately.   There is a scenario where the Bills go 11-6 and still miss out.  Sorry 😞

We’re digging up 2 year old threads now?   It’s gonna be a long 2 weeks.

This whole concept of controlling their own destiny is just wrong. It's to assume that the Bills would win because they choose to and to no regard to the opponents desire to win that same game. So, NO, they don't and never do. That's why games are played.

But, we all know that if they DO go 11-6, they're in.

 

So, there's that.

Bet you had the same vibe at 7-6 in 21

Root for Kansas City big over GB this weekend.  You don’t want KC coming in off a loss to play the Bills.

I am not sure if that matters. Buffalo lost two in a row to Cincinnati and Denver.

KC will want to deliver a knock out punch against the Bills as a victory over the Bills will likely knock them out of the playoffs. Unfortunately this team has shown they aren’t capable of going on a run this season. The coaching blunders and self inflicted mistakes IMO are just going to be too much to overcome. While I want them to do it, I think it’s more likely they finish 9-8. The losses to NYJ, NE, Den and Philly were just atrocious losses. The D gave up 30 points after halftime! 30 freakin points!

[Dirtyd415]

The bills have only strung together a 3 game winning streak this year, and fans are expecting them to go on a 5 game run against the most difficult remaining schedule in football?  Delusional thinking.  One game at a time, just don’t see it happening with the previous conference losses to the jets NE and the Jags already.

After looking at remaining schedules 11 wins is a WC, maybe 10 with a tie breaker. There are some late season surprises like AZ and play between the other contenders. 

 

if they win out they get in.
