Am I correct that if the Bills beat Chicago next Saturday, they are the AFC East Champs, but probably have to win out to get the AFC 1 Seed?

Depends if KC drops 1 more game.

Most likely. 
 

KC has a cupcake schedule down the stretch.  Exhibition game today against Houston.   Denver at home in two weeks.. who, yes, gave them a game last week but not going to expect much from them.   Vegas to finish the year, in a game that may or may not mean anything for the Raiders.  
 

Bills/Bengals could be the game that gives us the 1 seed or threatens our ability to even hold the 2.   Which is why people are crazy to be having an existential crisis about rooting for Brady today.

Go Texans!

Who I root for will have nothing to do with the outcome of the game.

 

The only thing I can root for when brady plays is for him to throw multiple interceptions and for him to get hit in the face repeatedly.

[BearNorth]

Regardless if KC loses another game, looks like we must beat the Bengals to get the 1 seed.

 

Otherwise with the same number of losses, they would hold the head to head over us.

Hardly fear mongering.   If you think differently that's okay. 

Have a nice day!

Is it just me, or is Cynthia Frelund wearing a naughty librarian outfit?

Have to pull for bucs on this one. Best interest for the bills always. Root for a miserable game by Brady but a bucs win.

I’m not giving the Bengals automatic credit for beating the Bucs, Pats and Ravens.

Think we really need that 1 seed. The wild cards are likely going to be Chargers/Dolphins/Ravens in my opinion. 3 teams that would play us tough I think. Would certainly much rather one of those 3 take a shot at the Chiefs than us.

Yeah, that's where I'm at.  Hope Brady has the worst game of his career but somehow Bucs can squeak out a win. 

so bad that he decides to retire right after the game.  Or better yet… at HALFTIME!

Would be funny as fudge if he pulled an Antonio Brown and peaced out!

[Warcodered]

Best way to look at it is something nice happens either way, either Brady loses or a conference leader loses.

[ChasBB]

Screw Cincy.  I have not forgiven them for beating Buffalo in '88 AFC Championship game.  They went on to lose to 49ers in the SB.  I think Bills would have beaten 49ers had they gotten past Cincinnati.  I want to see Burrow sacked a dozen times when Buffalo plays them.  Go Bills!!!

[AlfaBill]

Watching Eagles Bears. Wanted to post this without making a new thread. Lovie Smith?

[Playoffs?]

Jalen Hurts is really good - fun to watch his development!  
 

Also no issues if the Eagles want to physically beat up on the bears over the next 5 mins…

[The Wiz]

And burrow with a pick.

Nice pick, but I don't think Brady has it in him anymore.

He's looked fine so far this drive.

 

Maybe when it's later in the day and he doesn't have his nap he will start falling off.

In a rare dystopian three to four hour period I find myself rooting for the Brady led Bucs.  Ugh… this is sickening but necessary. 

 

I’m really too sad that the Texans came so near, and yet so far, from doing us a friendly and beating the Chiefs.  😪

 

But let me be sure I understand this….the Bucs are leading their division and currently the 4 seed in the NFC playoffs.

if the Bucs win today, they improve to 7-7?  And could clinch their division next week?

I am sorry to Bills Mafia, but I am rooting for Brady today..
