I think 14 wins gets the #1 seed.

I agree that the Bills can lose one more game and still get the first seed.

 

 It sounds silly but I worry about the last three games, against the Pats and Jets.  As bad as they may be, those teams have given the Bills problems over past few years…they will have nothing to lose and we’re likely to get one or more crazy weather games at that time of year…hopefully they will just be in tank mode, fighting it out for a high draft pick.

Im not worried about the Jets at all .. they all checked out ... I'd be more worried about the pats

What’s up with everyone thinking we lose to the Lions?

 

Ill take Allen over Goff any day of the week.

 

I do admit that the Lions OC is a savant and they have many weapons, but I won’t be shocked at all if McD limits them quite effectively.

 

Im more worried about the 49ers. They are desperate.

With our run defense, Montgomery and Gibbs scare me. It would not surprise me if they ran for close to 200 yards against us.

[RiotAct]

I wouldn’t be totally surprised if  the Bills actually beat the Lions, but lose one of the other five “extremely winnable” games remaining on the schedule.

Agreed.  The Pats continue to play hard…

[Drew21PA]

I’m just wondering how long the magic goes for KC - they “should have” lost quite a few?

 

are more “should have” losses going to happen now?

 

I think they will

 

i dont see us playing well against Detroit either - hoping it’s cold and nasty against the 9ers because I don’t like that one either with CMC

Not if the Chargers can help it

[Drew21PA]

KC schedule looks pretty competitive actually 

 

2-3 losses possible for sure 

 

losing division is possible to bolts too

I said IF...IF THEY LOSE...and I kind of agree about 49ers...they are on that desperate rally/season implosion razor's edge.  But I think IF the Bills beat the 49ers it just takes a ton of pressure off...particularly if the Chiefs and Steelers lose a couple.

The Niners will be playing their second tough road game in a row and will of course be traveling across the country.  The Bills will be comfortably favored... 

[Gregg]

Lucky for the 49ers that the division is "meh". Cards at 6-4 with everyone else at 5-5. I do think the 49ers game will be tough as they are getting healthier. They have a lot of talent on that team.

[Kelly to Allen]

I was listening to a dolphins podcast and they were talking about still winning the division. Lots of weirdos out there....

Yup. Bosa is banged up too. I expect full buffalo 🦬 domination

If they can get through these next 3 games at 2-1 or 3-0, then look-out.

Agree as I still worry about physical teams and I think 49ers still play a physical brand of football on defense - though I have not seen them play all year. Perhaps that is more perception than reality.  McD is undefeated after a bye week and a ton of guys should be healthy. Would be nice to get 49ers at 1PM EST (10am PST), but I still think Bills win. 

Before beating the Chiefs I said the Bills really had not beaten a good team. Much the same can be said about the Lions. They have had as easy a schedule as the Bills have had with many common opponents. They did beat the Texans but that was also Josh's WTF game for the year.  Lions speed is incredible but McD has shown that he can take that away. 

[90sBills]

I can see Bills losing 2 more games to end up 13-4. We’ll see if that’s enough for the #1 seed. 

[Gregg]

49ers - Packers game could be played in snow this weekend.

Still a lot of football left to get to the #1 seed. But I think the Bills can officially clinch the division before they play SF. If Miami loses to the Pats this week and at GB on TNF next week then the Bills are AFCE champs.

That only gets you the 4th seed at the worst.

What are the two losses.

 

49ers are not playing well adn will be on the road at Buffalo

Bills at Rams... could be a tough game for the Bills

Bills at Detroit...could be a tough game for the Bills

Home to the Patriots   @Buffalo

Home to the Jets. @Buffalo

Road game at Patriots  -  Tough divisional game...but the talents are not evenly matched

[paulmm3]

Would love a bye in the first round of the playoffs. That's something we've never had in the Josh era I don't think.

[Matt_In_NH]

I definitely think the Chiefs can lose two...but that is no guarantee.

It would be great if they got upset by the Panthers this week but coming off a loss, I expect them to win by at least 10.

We used to spend late November proving to each other all the ways that we were mathematically still in it.  This place is apparently full of weirdos too?  Let them have their misery.
