Will a win over the Jets to get to 6-5 bring everyone back in?!?!

Except that the Bills have averaged less than 18 points per game the last 3 times they have played the Saleh led Jets?

Yes, that was kind of my point.  Just winning over the Jets and getting to 6-5 does nothing for getting "back in."  So the answer to the OP's question would be "no."  If, however, the Bills do something spectacular against the Jets (which they have not done recently and is highly unlikely) then there would be reason for some optimism.

+1 . Totally agree with your reasoning

Open your eyes to the big picture. A win over the jets means nothing with the tough schedule ahead. This is not a SB, NOR  playoff game winning offense and the d is too injured to stop playmakers late.  Don’t be delusional.  They are losing now to the worst in the nfl.  Same pats qb that got benched AGAIN. Put up 29 on us with a game winning drive.  Outside Diggs /Kincaid, who puts fear in defense ; josh doesn’t leading league for years in turnovers. Good teams will destroy this team this year, sorry to be honest. 

 

Coaching change may save next year but its looking like2025 is hope with new staff.

I couldn't be less in if I took a reverse viagra

[JoshAllin]

A better question would be, Will a win over the Jets, Philly, KC bring everyone back in?

[Doc Brown]

They'd have to beat the Jets and Eagles.  A win in Philly would show me they at least have a shot against the Chiefs and Cowboys.  I could talk myself into 3-2 after that and hope Miami stumbles so it's a winner takes the division in week 18.

[Buffalo Ballin]

We have a low chance of winning versus the NY Jets.

[Since1981]

All bets are off now. Players will be in quiet revolt. takes all wind out when you lose over dumb coaching. Jets win can be a fluke but this could get really ugly. Jets will out physical buf

[Scott7975]

Nope. Season is over. I will still be here rooting for the team every week but baring a Miami collapse that allows the Bills to steal the division it’s over. If by some miracle the Bills make the playoffs I would have no confidence they are anything but playoff fodder this year. McD had his window and blew it. Time for change. 

[Ridgewaycynic2013]

Consulting my old favourite PlayoffStatus.com shows this loss completely removed the Bills from being able to determine their post season chances.  Every seeding possibility now relies on other teams helping out Buffalo's chances.

[WhitewalkerInPhilly]

No. 

 

This was the easy part of the schedule and we are 5-5. 

 

Are you going to tell me that the Bills are going to go out and win five out of: 

NY Jets (who haven't died and Allen has historically struggled against)

@Phildelphia (9-1)

@KC (8-2)

Dallas

Chargers

Pats

@Miami with Miami having something to play for

 

And even if we manage to squeak in with 9 wins, this team isn't going on a run.

 

Burn it down.

that’s not going to happen. The team isn’t going to suddenly go from dumpster fire to beating a stout defense that has had our number and two of the best teams in the league. 

[CoudyBills]

Not this guy

[stlbills13]

Yes assuming the win is with an interim coach and interim OC and we found a way to get Marvin Harrison Jr eligible and on the roster for the game and we got out of Von's contract for free and Milano and Daquan came back 

[Gman10]

Like everyone else is saying, we can't beat the Broncos at home. A win over the Jets does nothing. Realistically we should be 9-1 or 8-2 right now. Get rid of the coaching squad, see ya next year.

I’m out. I’m done with these guys. I survived the drought by not caring. I’m right back there again. I hate myself for believing. Good things don’t happen to me. I forgot that for a little bit,

bit now I remember.

They’d have to run the table or go 6-1. Schedule and injuries make that impossible. Stick a fork in them.

NYT has Billls w 17% odds of making playoffs.  At 6:1, I'd take that bet but it doest look live Vegas is giving those odds....hmmm.....

[All_Pro_Bills]

This team has no identity and should be 8-2 going into the tough stretch.  Losing to the Jets, Patriots, and again last night for a team with Championship aspirations is ridiculous.  With 3 division games left along with the Eagle, Chiefs, Cowboys, and Chargers I don't see any path to 10 wins and a 6 or 7 seed.  And sneaking into the division title by Miami faltering?  Their next 4 games are Raiders, Jets, Commanders, and Titans.  Don't count on that happening.
