Nihilarian Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 Who to root for: Root for the Browns Why: The Bills' highest priority is to secure a playoff spot and a Texans loss is the simplest way to help that. Yes, a Texans win could still be beneficial in some scenarios particularly when looking at Week 18 matchups: Browns at Bengals & Texans at Colts. Those games could be elimination matchups for the loser of both, depending on Week 16 and 17 results. But with the Browns holding a 92% chance to make the postseason, it would take a lot for Cleveland to lose hold of a Wild Card spot, compared to the Texans who have a 51% postseason chance. A Texans loss would increase Buffalo's playoff chances to 85% and decrease Houston's playoff chances to 33%. In this scenario, the Bills would move ahead of the Texans in the AFC. A Texans win and they are still ahead of the Bills going into Week 17. That's why we're rooting for the Browns in this one. https://www.buffalobills.com/news/who-to-root-for-where-bills-stand-in-the-afc-playoff-picture-for-week-16-2023 1 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nihilarian Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 Also, root for the Cowboys, Falcons, and Patriots Best Case Scenario A Texans loss + Colts loss + Dolphins loss + Broncos loss would increase Buffalo's playoff chances to 90%. In this scenario, the Bills be the 6th seed in the AFC going into Week 17. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean if it's just a pick and they're tackled downfield it's not good but anything that doesn't convert is a turnover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Credit to Flacco and the Browns staff for being smart enough to get Cooper the ball though. I’ve seen too many times where a great receiver gets ignored by an average QB.

I guess not the biggest deal but knocking it down would have given them the ball with better field position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
