You're right, that offense clearly didn't need the defense to make the superbowl. Allowing the 2nd least yards in the league clearly didnt help them make the playoffs or the superbowl. Jimmy G is just so good the rest of his team doesnt matter clearly.

Jimmy G also had the benefit of the best DLine in the league during his Super Bowl run, the Dolphins don’t have that.

Wonder if the Chiefs playoffs game is driving that with him having arguably the best game in playoff history for a wr.

I would be surprised if he got that much, he was more productive in the 2020-21 year, and we re-signed him cheap. Last season all he had was the second *Pats game, he didn’t even reach 200 yards recieving on the season. He also had less touchdowns (from 5 to 2)

Maybe long term, but I’d have to disagree in the short term. The Texans are more than a QB away from being a good team, but the broncos were average with bad QB play. Adding a top 10 QB to a solid roster in the AFC doesn’t help the bills chances… unless you are counting on the rest of the AFC west having worse records due to adding Wilson in division.

Currently the Seahawks have DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett, a great 1-2 punch at WR and just added a solid TE in Noah Fant. I think those options are probably as good, if not better than when Watson had Hopkins and an often injured will fuller.

An injured CMC is a low impact rb. Less than 800 yards from scrimmage last year and less than 400 the year before. When healthy he’s a force, but with his recent health I don’t know if it’s worth spending assets and a large chunk of cap on an oft injured player.

I don’t think it’s worth the first, he’ll need a raise next year, rather add some oline talent in the first.

Josh Allen now has the highest career playoff passer rating in history, as Mahomes dropped slightly below him after the Bengals game.

Pretty much all of those things. I think this was out of 5 printed, and I’m guessing in mint condition.

So would 11 Josh Allens on defense be enough kryptonite for Patrick Mahomes?

Yikes

Incredible atmosphere. Perhaps my favorite moment from the crowd- before the game a pats* fan was walking to his seat. Of course some fans shout F the pats*. He responded by saying yeah, F the pats because we own y’all’s a***s. Just watch, you’ll see in 4 hours. Glad to say that was not the case. My voice I pretty horse this morning. Not a single defensive play where every bills fans around were not screaming their heart out. I probably saw a total of 6 or 7 Pats* fans around my section. One was behind us in a group of 3 bills fans, one pats* fan, and they were giving the pats fan s*** the whole game. One of the fans next to us snuck in 4 meatball subs, and gave one to me in the 4th quarter. Not sure if it was the sub, or the sweet taste of victory, but best meatball sub I’ve had in my life.

One of the fans next to me brought in 4 meatball subs, I don’t think it would be that hard to get a ***** In (as long as there’s no metal in it)

I think the voting should be later in the season, to give voters a better picture. For example Lamar Jackson vs. Josh Allen Not really one stat that Lamar is better than Josh Allen here. I think with Lamar's missing games to end the season, he likely wouldn't have gotten in.

I wouldn’t assume the Bengals lose to the Chiefs like that, they’re a solid team and could beat the Chiefs.

If it is a fully torn archilles, he’s done for the year, and could likely miss time next year.

No, this is a good thing, not giving any AFC playoff contenders the easy wins against those teams.

Why so sure that the ravens will beat the rams and the Steelers? The rams are 10-4 and are a solid team, and the steelers aren’t horrible and could be playing with playoffs on the line.

For the bills to get the 1 seed, they’d have to win out while the chiefs lose at least 2(if they drop 3, then the chargers have to lose 1) and Titans lose 2 and Bengals lose 1 and Ravens lose 1 and colts lose 1. Possible, sure, but I don’t really see all that going our way.

The point of the thread is to show how jumbled the playoff picture is, and how any one of those 13 teams still has a way to make to the playoffs. When looking at the remaining schedule of the season, I was suprised by how much all these teams played each other and wanted to show that. All of those teams that could realistically win 0-3 games are playing 3 teams within 2 wins of themselves (aside from the Chiefs who are having some Covid issues). For the teams who face a team not in that range, I put 1-3, because while they still could lose out the season, I’d find it very unlikely. I wasn’t trying to go out on a limb, just wanted to show the remaining schedules of the teams were competing against for a playoff spot. Don’t know why half the people on the thread had to react negatively to that.

Steelers need help to get in if they run the table, but I think it’s highly unlikely they don’t get it. All they would need is for any one of the colts, Bengals, Bills, or Chargers to drop one game.

The 0-3 is wins to finish out the season, not the record. Most of these teams very possibly could finish out with 3 wins, 3 losses or somewhere in between.

The AFC Playoff Picture is a mumbled mess with 13 teams still having a shot 3 weeks to go. No playoff berths have been clinched yet, and we’re in for a wacky few weeks. 1. The Chiefs (10-4) The chiefs currently hold the number one spot, but that could change quickly. They have been running into covid troubles and face 3 teams that will be fighting for playoff spots. Opponents : Steelers (7-6-1) Bengals (8-6) Broncos (7-7) Realistically could finish out with 0-3 wins to finish out the year 2. The Pats* (9-5) The Pats* would clinch the division with a win this week over the Bills, but should they lose, they still could miss out on the playoffs given their recent history with struggling with the fish in week 17. Opponents: Bills (8-6) Jaguars (2-12) Dolphins (7-7) Realistically could finish out with 1-3 wins to finish out the year. 3. The Titans (9-5) Theyve struggled without Henry, and the colts have been catching up fast. They have a tough next couple weeks, and could easily find themselves 9-7. Opponents: 49ers (8-6) Dolphins (7-7) Texans (3-11) Realistically could finish with 1-3 wins to finish the year 4. The Bengals (8-6) Arguably the toughest remaining schedule of the teams on this list. Opponents: Ravens (8-6) Chiefs (10-4) Browns (7-7) Realistically could finish with 0-3 wins to finish the year 5. The Colts (8-6) A team on the rise, with an interesting last few weeks. They face the cardinals next who looked amazing earlier this season, but just dropped one to the Lions, so it’s anybodys guess to see how that game will go. Opponents: Cardinals (10-4) Raiders (7-7) Jaguars (2-12) Realistically could finish with 1-3 wins to finish the year. 6. The Chargers (8-6) One of the weaker remaining schedules, but still could drop a couple. Opppnents: Texans (3-13) Broncos (7-7) Raiders (7-7) Realistically could finish the season with 1-3 wins 7. The Bills (8-6) Biggest game of the season coming up next week against the Pats. With a win, the division seems almost guranteed, with a loss, missing the playoffs is an all too real possibility. Opponents Pats* (9-5) Atlanta (6-8) Jets (3-11) Realistically could finish the season with 1-3 wins 8. The Ravens (8-6) The only 8-6 team out of a playoff spot, they still have a solid chance, but with Lamar’s injury concerns, bad tiebreakers, and a tough schedule, it may be hard for them to make it. Opponents: Benglas (8-6) Rams (10-4) Steelers (7-6-1) Realistically could finish the season with 0-3 wins 9. The Steelers (7-6-1) A tough schedule, but they could still find their way into the playoffs if they go hot. Opponents: Chiefs (10-4) Browns (7-7) Ravens (8-6) Realistically could finish the season with 0-3 wins 10. The Raiders (7-7) A schedule facing only other playoff hopefuls, with 3 wins, they likely make the playoffs, but it will be difficult. Opponents: Broncos (7-7) Colts (8-6) Chargers (8-6) Realistically could finish with 0-3 wins to finish the season 11. The Dolphins (7-7) Earlier in the season, the playoffs seemed impossible, but after a hit streak, the fish now have a chance. Opponents: Saints (7-7) Titans (9-5) Pats* (9-5) Realistically could finish the season with 0-3 wins 12. The Browns (7-7) A tough schedule to finish out the year, they seem unlikely to make the playoffs, but a hot streak could quickly change that. Opponents: Packers (11-3) Bengals (8-6) Steelers (7-6-1) Realistically could finish the season with 0-3 wins 13. The Broncos (7-7) The last team with a shot at making it, would need some luck, but a hot streak to finish the year, facing only divisional opponents gives them a shot. Oppponets: Raiders (7-7) Chargers (8-6) Chiefs (10-4) Realistically could finish the season with 0-3 wins The teams with the best odds of making the playoffs (in my opinion) are: 1. Chiefs 2. Pats* 3. Bills 4. Colts 5. Chargers 6. Titans 7. Bengals 8. Steelers 9. Ravens 10. Dolphins 11. Browns 12.Raiders 13.Broncos These are looking like they’re gonna be a crazy last few weeks, and I’m really excited to see how they play out. What are your thoughts on whose most likely to make the playoffs?

I don’t know the exact numbers, but it seems the past couple years, this team has been horrible against 2 point conversions, I’d guess giving up at least 60%. If we were to assume 60%, the expected value of a 2 point attempt would be 1.2, which would indicate the better thing to do would be to go for 2 all the time against the Bills. Likely, with more attempts, the rate would go down however.
