Currently, we are set to face New England in the first round for a bully match. 

 

Looks like we have a shot at facing the Raiders as well. 

 

Going to be very interesting moving forward. 

 

I DO NOT want a loss against NE in the playoffs. 

 

I wouldn't mind playing the Pats in the playoffs so we could beat them and leave no doubt who the new kings of the AFCE are.

Man next week's matchups are gross...

 

I can't find a single game that is exciting, and the NFL needs to fill Saturday and Sunday as well as SNF

I'm thinking the following will be NFLs choices (for Sat and Sun night):

1. Chargers vs Raiders: HUGE playoff implications, my guess for Sunday night

2. Rams vs 49ers: 49ers fighting for a playoff spot win and in, and Rams for the division title (assuming Cards win tonight).

3. Bills vs Jets OR Eagles vs Cowboys: Bills fighting for a division title.  Eagles fighting for a playoff spot, win and in, and 2 potential playoff teams.

 

Will be interesting, I'd put the Bills/Jets at the lowest chance of those listed above, but it likely is under consideration.

If we start from the premise we are almost certainly the #4 then here is how I think it lays out (our slim chance of being the #3 is for a Burrow-less Bengals to lose to the Browns next week).

 

Scenario 1: 

NE beats MIA

IND beats JAX

LAC beats LV

Buffalo plays New England in the wildcard

 

Scenario 2:

NE loses to MIA

IND beats JAX

LAC beats LV

Buffalo plays Indianapolis in the wildcard

 

Scenario 3:

NE beats MIA

IND beats JAX

LV beats LAC

Buffalo plays New England in the wildcard

 

Scenario 4:

NE loses to MIA

IND beats JAX

LV beats LAC

Buffalo plays Las Vegas in the wildcard

 

 

What if IND loses to JAX? I guess that's unlikely, but what if?!

I think wanting to play the Pats are a mistake. I don't think they go to the Super Bowl but I want no part of them in the playoffs

Same, the idea of the pats and belilchick and a potential loss is scary lol. But the pats the team don't scare me at all 

 

Belichick has shown he's pretty good at implementing great game plans in the post season, whether as a coordinator or HC.

 

Would prefer to avoid his team as the first opponent. 

 

Then again, I'd just be happy if we got a home playoff game against ANYONE while having decent weather.

For WC seeding

 

NE wins they are #5

NE L Then they  could end up 6 or 7.

 

NE lose to IND by h2h

NE over LAC by H2H

LV over NE by common games

 

NE IND LV.   Then LV 5 IND 6 NE is 7. If IND L then teams shift up 

NE IND LAC  Then IND is 5 NE is 6 LAC 7 IND L then teams shift up.

 

PIT needs to WW and have IND L

IF PIT WW and LAC/LV tie then LAC is in by H2H.  IF IND lose Then LV gets in as well.

 

IF you have PIT, IND LV and LAC all end up with 9.5 W then IND is in and LAC is in.

 

 

BAL needs to W and have IND MIA and LAC L. They beat both IND and LAC. But if they are tied at 9-8 with Miami then conference record takes over putting IND in. IF LV L then conference record takes over and  IND and LV are at 7-5 and LV is in at 9-8.

That would be a good ol' time! We all said a couple weeks ago the Bills have to beat them more for it to feel like a rivalry...let's end their season and watch that sucker heat up next year.

They may but if colts lose then chargers and raiders are both in
