Westside Madness

Ok, I said BUF vs HOU was a lock. I was told it was not a lock. I then said 'good call' to the person who corrected me and then stated how it appears that KC could swap positions with HOU. Then there was a flurry of confusing posts. So, first off, I am not how sure how my preference can impact the outcome of the 2019 AFC playoff picture. That being said, I want the Bills to play HOU. Second, how am I confused or incorrect? I am eager to understand the mire in which I currently find myself. Thanks,

Good call. If KC wins tonight and next week and HOU loses next week, they flip seeding. Go Bears!!!

Why don't you just offer sexual favors for the moderator tag? My god, you want it so badly.

HOU vs. BUF in the WC was the only locked match up when today started if I recall. I cant believe KC got Suggs. I also cant believe how huge he looks in a KC uniform.

When the day started, PIT was #6 and TEN was not in. They both lost. When the day ended TEN was #6 and PIT was not in. Was there a strength of victory flip or something? There isn't a head to head...

You said hard...strip...and Brady...

That was a beautiful run.

The universe better get all their INTs out of their system before 4pm...

The North Carolina Alliance of Artists?

Second play of the game, HOU defense pick 6...they must be go...oh, it was Jameis... I despise that 'alarm clock' font.

I am torn. I don't want to play against Watson, but do we really want to try to keep Derrick Henry in check? Is the possibility of JJ Watt the deciding factor?

Went ahead and fixed that for ya. Don't worry, no charge...

My sarcasm has mistakenly lumped me into the Allen hater book. I was joking. No yards were coming easy in this game. Our QB has 9 rushing TDs and the regular season isn't over yet!!! 5th seed, we are looking at the Texans...bring it!!!

I was being sarcastic. Nine rushing TDs!!! Whoo-hoo!!!

Allen only passed for 139 yards.... 139 yards in the NFL as a QB... And an interception... What do the QBs look like in the mid to late first round next year?

There is a point during a wedding where they ask if anyone objects to the union. He is a Patriots fan and you remained silent?

Right there with him? Did you lose an 11mm 2020 contract? [The 'you' in the following statement is a general 'you' and not directed at the quoted user or any other specific poster] Actions have consequences. If you don't care to adjust to modern society, you either deal with being cast aside or you can move to Jamestown...or, maybe Bath, NY, where people share an outdated decorum. EDIT - Preemptive as, well, I am not new here.

I saw my mistake. I was looking at 4 teams for 2 WC spots. Its 3 as one wins the division. Assuming HOU wins the division, their 8-4 conf record no longer matters in the WC assessment. PIT would still have the highest conf record at 8-4 and lock seed 5. BUF beats TEN on head to head for 6th seed. Saw your post after I realized my error...forgot to take out the division winner.

My post has nothing to do with head to head and everything to do with the conference record...

Ok, just ran the math. In the scenario where all 4 are 10-6, they will have the following conference records: BUF - 7-5 (win NYJ, loss PIT, loss NE) PIT - 8-4 (win BUF, win NYJ, loss BAL) HOU - 8-4 (win TEN, win TB, loss TEN) TEN - 7-5 (loss HOU, win NO, win HOU) So, unless I am not seeing something, we are NOT in a 'win and in' scenario yet.

Thanks for this, so guessing it is the conference win/loss. I didn't math that in my 4 way 10-6 tie.

I posted this elsewhere, but def fits here: In various threads I am hearing both: 1. Win one more game and we are in the playoffs! 2. No, that's not true, it was said in error by the media! Which is it? There appears to be a path where HOU, TEN, PIT and BUF end up at 10-6. My understanding is that with a 3/4 way tie, head to head is not relevant. So, what factors guarantee us a playoff berth with one more win? I see many posters echoing the 'win and in', but no one seems to know how/why that can happen. At least it wasn't posted in this thread.

CC just made a mess in his slacks.

NE has zero timeouts left, its the smart play to end the game.
