The Red King Posted December 25, 2023 Share Posted December 25, 2023 For those wondering, I do recall talk some awhile back about some kind of rule where if divisional rivals meet in the playoffs, the division winner would have to go to the Wild Card if that Wild Card did better against the division winner, or something like that. But nothing ever came from those talks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Save your energy fellas I was permanently damaged when we lost four in a row and I was at all four. Why are you still watching, if everything but a Super Bowl win is pain? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentEdwardsCheckDownOn4th Posted December 25, 2023 Share Posted December 25, 2023 The chiefs are essentially locked into the 3 seed. They obv wont catch Baltimore for the 1 seed. They almost certainly can't catch miami or buffalo for the 2 seed. And they hold the tiebreaker over Jacksonville so they won't be the 4 seed. And chiefs only need one more win to clinch their division. If bills somehow win division their path looks something like: Steelers at home Chiefs at home Baltimore on road or maybe Miami at home Wow! How awesome would a home championship game be. 1 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike in Horseheads Posted December 25, 2023 Share Posted December 25, 2023 7 minutes ago, chongli said: I will be furious if KC and Buffalo both finish at 11-6 and we have to go to KC for the WC. Just like 1980 when San Diego and we finished 11-5 and we beat them in the regular season, but we had to go to San Diego for the WC. KC has always played in a weak division. Miami had better lose to Baltimore next week. If Joe Ferguson wasn't playing on a broken ankle we would have won that dam game . 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure: is there a rule saying a division champ gets home field over a wild card, in case we finish as a wild card but KC wins their division and we have the same record? They’re coming to Buffalo, right? Home field is decided by highest seed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentEdwardsCheckDownOn4th Posted December 25, 2023 Share Posted December 25, 2023 Hypotheitcal question about the miami game... let's say miami beats Baltimore and has the divison locked up heading into the last week. And also the bills locked up a playoff spot after beating new England. A buffalo win In week 18 would almost certainly mean the 6th seed and a matchup @ kansas city. Or a loss to Miami and bills finish as the 7th seed at Baltimore. Which would you prefer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's important that the 49ers beat the Ravens tonight and then the Ravens beat the Dolphins and Steelers to secure the 1. If the Ravens win tonight and next week, they Could could rest starters against the Steelers in week 18. We can't have that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We arguably aren’t either but Baltimore is in the extremely short conversation of good teams this year IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
