People only like this idea because we would benefit from it. Personally, it adds some drama to the season. And that’s just what the NFL wants.

Bo Nix and the Bronco's Defense - the Toughest Out for the Bills?
somnus00 replied to jethro_tull's topic in The Stadium Wall
Houston is getting hot at the right time. They look dangerous right now. -
I've heard talk on a Browns YouTube channel that Deshaun Watson should play on Sunday. As a Bills fan, I'd much rather they play Sanders. Watson would probably play terribly but it would be a very Bills thing for him to have an astonishing return to form at the worst possible time for the Bills. Anyone else share this concern?

I agree and have been saying this for years but I get hated on for it. It just makes more sense. A Division winner would be guaranteed a spot but not a home game. The people that say "just win your Division and you won't have that problem" don't understand that there is always one bad Division in each conference. What it takes to win one Division, may be much harder in another Division. If one team goes 13-4 but are behind a 14-3 team in there Division, why should they be visiting a 9-8 Division winner in the playoffs? So, the 9-8 team gets rewarded a home game because their Division was garbage? What's the point of putting everything you have into 13 wins just to basically have it not matter when it comes to seeding? This is blatant common sense but no matter how much sense you make, very few people will agree with you

I posted recently about the PPG disparity and was hoping to drill down a bit more and it's even crazier than I thought. Below is since week 8, randomly selected as the halfway point. First column is EPA defense for the whole game. Bills rank 17th. Second column is 1st half defensive EPA. Bills rank 26th. Third column is 2nd half defensive EPA. Bills rank 1st. Last column is the largest variance between first and second half defense. The higher the number, the worse the variance is in the 2nd half compared to the first half. The lower the number, the better. Buffalo is double the next closest one in Arizona, with Arizona only being that low because they're usually are out of the game by then. Hard to understand information like this. On one hand we show the ability to be among the leagues best in the 2nd half and on another we can't get off the field in the 1st.

any further info on Gabe Davis being inactive yesterday?
Rubes replied to dave mcbride's topic in The Stadium Wall
That’s what I saw too. I do remember seeing him in the game after that, though. He was actually lined up in the backfield on one play, and I remember thinking, “Oh, I guess the thing that looked like an injury wasn’t that bad.” But maybe he was just gutting it out until after the game. -
Yeah, don't change it. I get the discrepancy, but I like the way it is based on what was stated. Teams gear up to take on their division.

Waiting on confirmation but I think Grape Davis against his own will, ended up at the DMV and is still stuck in line. -
I concur. There are three teams that don't lead their AFC divisions that mathematically could surpass Buffalo's record. They are Houston, Indianapolis and LA Chargers. There are three Wild Card berths in the AFC. The Chargers have the same record as Buffalo, but are one spot ahead of the Bills in the current seeding. They must have a tie breaker over Buffalo. Houston's record at the moment is 9-5. If Buffalo wins 2 more games and Houston wins out, Houston would be seeded higher because they own the first tiebreaker over Buffalo (head to head). Obviously, if Buffalo wins out, Houston can't catch them. Indianapolis is 8-6 at the moment. If Buffalo beats Cleveland, they have 11 wins. If Indianapolis loses, the best they can finish is 10-7. They would likely be out of the playoffs. The wild card teams would likely be the Chargers, Buffalo and Houston. Houston would probably have to collapse for Indianapolis to have a chance to make the playoffs. By the way, Baltimore has not been mathematically eliminated, but they can't bump Buffalo out. They are 7-7. The best they can do is tie Buffalo's record if Buffalo loses out, but Buffalo owns the first tiebreaker (head to head). For Buffalo to get the top wild card spot, they need the Chargers to lose at least one of their remaining games. Buffalo will want to win out to insure that as the would face the fourth best division winner. That will be Pittsburgh whom Buffalo crushed just a couple weeks ago.

Vrabel whining about the officiating in Bills/Pats

It won't. And fwiw.......the Patriots got the majority of officiating breaks. -
Gross on Trump's part, he should have kept his yap shut.

BillsFooteball replied to HappyDays's topic in The Stadium Wall
Really poor look for head coach of a team. Sore loser and embarrassed choked a 21-0 lead at home coming off bye. Interesting enough my phone was blowing up multiple times throughout the game by non bills fans how badly the officiating was going against bills. Really really bad look coach 🤡 -

Around the League Thread - Week 15 (no bills discussion please)
Buffalo716 replied to ryguy101's topic in The Stadium Wall
Never say never These are professionals who have pride... The ability to take a divisional rival from winning the division is Big motivation for professionals Wouldn't be the first time a bad team did that to a team in that position -

How in the good holy hell did Las Vegas beat New England earlier this season -
Lol a lot of those national people are retired Patriots players so I am not shocked they talked up the Pats. (Not saying it was right or wrong just not shocked) I try be unbiased but like all fans I have my fan glasses on so I sometimes miss there flaws.. for example I honestly didn’t think they would run all over the Pats like they did.. but I stated numerous times their D Achilles heel is defending the TE and Allen exploiting that didn’t shock me.. Mind you if our teams meet again I wouldn’t think it’s a lock for either team to win that game.. the 2 games so far you can’t get much closer if you tried..
