    Considering how the league screwed the Bills over against the Jaguars by having the Jags play back to back weeks in London, allowing for them to not have to deal with travel time....hoping Titans smack them. Bills losing a home game to London and a tie breaker due to Goodells experiment (he was quoted as saying he wanted to experiment with such an unfair scenario) was significant considering the Bills record at home (only 1 loss at home this year )

     

    Feels like justice, of sorts, will be done if the Jags lose here.

  2. This is going to seem very convoluted but here it goes. If the Jags win the early kick off and the Bills are destined to lose, let it be a blow out. Honestly, I don't want some heartbreaking defeat at the death, something like 34-31, where there's just enough to keep the key components on board next year. If the Bills are not in the play offs then things needs to be assessed, tough questions asked, changes made. Not an "unlucky" loss where blame for the season is placed on Dorsey's shoulders and the franchise moves on with more of the same.

     

    Obviously, if the Jags lose, the last thing the Bills need is a blowout loss heading into the play offs. And the best thing would be a Bills win. But if tonight results in failure, ahead of what is presumed to be something of a roster reorganisation for 2024, then it's the right time to ask whether they have the correct people in place to oversee it. I'm not sure a narrow loss would result in that happening.

     

    Still, a win and the Bills get the two seed and win the AFC Easy again. They have the players, they can do this. So go Bills!

    Def got snubbed from pro bowl. 

     

    Him and Josh should have got into the Pro Bowl over Tua and Mahomes TBH. As much as I think the line and receivers are helping Stroud out a lot.

     

    Score here and it's a long way back for the Colts.

    There is easily a scenario.

     

    Bills win + Jags win would result in the following:

     

    #2 Buffalo vs #7 Houston/Ind winner

    #3 KC vs #6 Miami

    #4 Jax vs #5 Cleveland 

     

    Ha why didn't I remember that one? Will put it down to being nearly 2am here. Thanks.

     

    Would definitely prefer the Colts to the Texans.

  5. Is there a scenario where the Bills would get the winner of this game in the wildcard round? I don't think there is.

     

    From memory both the Colts and Texans were ahead of the Steelers in the standings heading into this week. That means the winner will go above them in the standings. The only way the Steelers won't be the seventh seed is if the Bills and Jags both lose.

    Who though?  What game in the Sun 1pm starts matters that would deserve the Sat start?  Jax game might be the only other one.  All these games are mostly meaningless garbage at this point.  Either its good team vs bad, a team that is already locked for the playoffs, or bad vs bad, or has a premium game spot already.

     

    Think the only pair which would have made sense is Texans at Colts in the late afternoon slot, followed by Jags and Titans in primetime. Pure focus on the AFC South, three out of four teams after something and the fourth would at least be focusing on winning.

  7. Just realised that, ironically, from a 'security' point of view, the Bills would have been better off if the Dolphins had won last week. The Ravens would have had to win tonight to secure one seed and, if they had, the Dolphins would have probably played their back ups tomorrow. And, unless the Jags somehow lose, it wouldn't have changed the risk behind tomorrow's game that much at all.

     

    So let's take advantage of what the Ravens win last week did, and claim the two seed.

  8. Just now, Process said:

    So is 6 seed eliminated as a possibility now?

     

    Unless Bills at Dolphins finishes as a tie. Then the Bills, on 10-6-1, will end up ahead of the Steelers as sixth seed.

     

    Bills win - second

    Bills tie - sixth

    Bills lose and Jags lose - seventh

    Bills lose and Jags win - out

     

    The Colts can't play for the tie tonight with a Steelers win so not even going to consider that as a possibility.

    This really sucks. I’m not trying to get bailed out but I really didn’t want us to have to win that Dolphin game. Way too many things can go wrong in a 1 game setting. There’s going to be a ton of pressure now.

     

    Titans MAY still beat Jags. I thought early on that will probably be the Bills best chance to qualify for the play offs before Sunday night, with the Ravens resting a load.
