Warriorspikes51 Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago (edited) It may be a bit early to discuss, but we are basically at the season midpoint. KC 7-0 BUF 6-2 I expect the AFC North teams to take each other out KC Schedule Unless the Bucs or Broncos win at Arrowhead, KC will be 9-0 coming to Orchard Park. The only other challenging games on their schedule are PIT and HOU. KC has a floor of 13 wins IMO. Very likely they get to 14 Personally, I don't see a very good chance of the #1 Seed. BAL having 3 losses already & HOU losing last night certainly helps though. If we can win the next 2 games and beat KC to have the H2H Tiebreaker, we could have a legit shot at it Edited 2 hours ago by Warriorspikes51 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCBills Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago Running the table gets us the 1 seed. Anything less and I wouldn’t count on it. I can see the Chiefs losing to us and another random game somewhere. (Maybe) two other games and we could catch them dropping one more game. They don’t hit regular season 2-3 game skids like we do, which is why they have a great shot at the 1 seed year in/year out. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JGMcD2 Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago The Chiefs, Lions, Rams and 49ers all in a row for us is going to be tough. I think we're 8-2 going into the KC game and have a great chance of beating them, I just think we drop 1-2 games later and the Chiefs won't drop more than 1 game. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFan130 Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago Ya chiefs schedule is so soft. Even if we do beat them, I see KC getting to 15 wins, or 14 at the absolute worst 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Process Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago Even if we beat KC I don't think we can lose more than one game to have a chance. We may even need to win out. One seed is likely not realistic but I do think we finish ahead of Bal and Hou. Others team's refusal to beat KC is annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sojourner Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago Would like to think there’s 3 if not 4 losses on there for the Chiefs. Hopefully more. The plausible 4 would be Bucs, Steelers, Texans or Bills. They may end up dropping more of their run of good fortune and teams crapping the bed stops: Browns & Chargers are always possible. Raiders will surely play them well again as you would hope one of the Broncos’ games. Our guys have just got to focus on ours and worry about nothing else. Like @JGMcD2 mentioned, that 4 game stretch for us will be the deciding period if we have a shot at the 1 seed. 🤞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunnerBill Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago The Bills would have to win 8 of 9 - with KC one of the wins to have a chance IMO. The Chiefs finish 14-3 at worst IMO. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
90sBills Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago I see it working out this way… KC #1 Bills #2 Balt #3 Hou #4 Pitt #5 LAC #6 Den #7 This will most likely how things will shake out. Bills will have a great shot at reaching the superbowl. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brand J Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago (edited) Chiefs have looked like an average team most of the year, but they’ve still got Ws against the Ravens, Bengals, and 49ers that add to their 7-0 record. I don’t see them losing more than 2 games the rest of the way, no matter how flawed or injured they are. As long as Mahomes and Chris Jones remain healthy, 15-2 is their floor. We will likely finish as the 2 or 3 seed, which also means we’ll have to go through both BAL and KC to reach the SB.

No_Matter_What Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago 14-3 with a win over Chiefs gets us #1 seed. Anything else won't. Maybe 13-4 with a win over Chiefs if we are really lucky. I think 14-3 is doable but very unlikely. But I don't think it matters that much, we still need to beat Chiefs in PO anyway. I'd love to end up #2 though to have at least Ravens at home. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do we rest guys for a month? Play Trubisky for a game or two? IMO there is very little advantage to second seed vs third or fourth… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the top 2 are pretty set, but still they are not. Everything else is just a guess at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peace Frog Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago IMHO, the KC game is the 2nd toughest one remaining for us, with the #1 being at Detroit. The Lions are legit this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
