A lot of things could be in play in that last game.  For example, maybe Miami avoids playing us in the wildcard game—and instead gets Pittsburgh or the Colts—if they lose to us…in which case, maybe they sit some guys.

They would also love to knock us out of the playoffs!

 

Even if we win four straight heading into Miami, it’s a huge game for us.

 

Win and our playoff chances are 99%
 

Lose and they are 46%

Just gotta say, I hate this ***** simulator horseshit. It's like all the analytical bs in the NHL and MLB. It doesn't mean a hill of beans. Go back to the days when coaching, actually meant coaching. Not this looking at a computer and setting your gameplan that way. I hate technology. Mostly because I am immune to it. But why even have or pay coaches anymore, when the computer can tell you what to do? Sports are pretty gross now.

Exactly what control you have over the coaching?
 

Do you think that the coaches sit around playing playoff simulator?

What?  They do not

 

they can “afford” to lose one more that is it though.

 

 

If they can’t run the table, they aren’t going to go very far in the playoffs anyway.

Coaching still needs to be done during the week. Leading the team, having the

them prepared for war in their next game,  despite the ups and downs of the season.  That's most important part imo, most games are won during the week and has nothing to do with a computer

Win keeps hope alive. Lose and its essentially season over because we would need a lot of help. Just the amount of games the teams ahead us have vs each other guarantees some of these teams rack up wins. Unless they lose to non-contenders or 1-2 of them win out, too many teams get to 10-11 wins and we lose most tiebreakers. Thats why our playoff odds are 15-25% based on the logic.

as of today, 73-79% odds of making with 4/5 run.  better odds include a  win against KC..  73% w loss to KC but win all other games.

Once again, wrong figures. You need to select the Chiefs to win that game, not leave it blank. The correct number is 52%, not 73%.

 

I guess you are trolling.

no.  U R correct, left that game undecided.  will retry.

yes, 53%.  but hardly "season is over" w loss to KC....how many years would ee be smiling with these odds in the 70's or 80's, Even a good portion of the 2000's?

Damn,  we have Josh Allen and the one season when the QBs to beat for a Wild Card are:  Stroud, Minshew, Flacco, Trubisky, Browning and maybe Beathard.

 

No Excuses.  Have to do it the hard way since some easy games were blown.

Hard to process after Cinncy’s win last night the Bills are currently in 11th place in the AFC. To state this week is a must win is an understatement. The reality is they are going to have to win out which based upon the season thus far, it’s more unlikely than likely.  11th freaking place for a team that should be dominating but yet our HC is coaching like he’s in his first year.
