Assuming the Steelers finish 11-5 and the Browns win the AFCN at 12-4 the Steelers may fall to #6 or #7 seed. A great Wildcard game for the Bills.

I travelled to Atlanta for the Dallas Super Bowl with a small group from the UK. Unfortunately we got caught in a ticket scam. Ended up watching in a big hotel near the Stadium with hundreds of other Bills fans. The problem was due in part to Dallas fans driving up secondary ticket market. However I was lucky enough to get tickets for Tampa. Minneapolis & Pasadena. I also went to the Rams/Pats Superbowl in New Orleans where ticket prices were tumbling on the Friday & Saturday as no one wanted them ! Picked up 3 cheap tickets the day before near the 50 yard line !

The Bills play at Jacksonville in 2021. Pray the Jags keep Marrone.

Agree that you would expect Baltimore to win their last 3 to get to 11-5 but thats no guarantee they will be in the play offs. They need some help by another team losing.

A lot depends on the opponent. For example this year potentially LA Rams (modest travelling support) or Green Bay (huge travelling support). It's all a question of supply and demand. With KC and 49ers last year it was not unreasonable to expect of a lot of extra demand to drive prices up, especially in a smaller stadium.

You are going to have to wait until the AFC Championship game for that, on the assumption that KC wins in the Divisional Round.

Expecting the Colts to beat the Steelers in week 16. So that will give the Bills a realistic shot at the No 2 seed if they can take care of business. The difference between 3 & 4 seed is significant. At No 4 will likely mean a trip to KC in the Divisional round. No 3 seed avoids potential KC until the Championship game. If someone else knocks off KC in the Divisional Round then we have a chance of hosting the AFC Championship game at the Ralph !

Thats true. Titans have the potential tiebreaker on us. BUT if it's a 3 way tie with Pittsburgh on the basis the Steelers have beaten the Titans the "head to head" tiebreaker would be disregarded.

I would say Miami beats Pats & Raiders. So then it depends on whether Bills rest their starters in Week 17 which they might. It’s possible the Ravens win out and fail to make the Play Offs.

Steelers have a better chance of defeating a Run Heavy team (like Titans or Ravens). If Steelers are 2 seed and they lose Wildcard that gives Bills a better chance to host the Divisional game. So that’s good news as well,

Seems virtually impossible we could face Steelers in the Wildcard. But very good chance of meeting in the Divisional round. The Steelers Offense looks the weakest of all the contenders. Agree the D looks good but great to see JA17 beating the all out blitz. Big Ben doesn’t look like the Big Ben of old.

Looking forward to the day when Diggs catches a few long bombs from JA17 and takes them to the TD house. It’s the only thing lacking this season. Probably saving those catches for the Play Offs.

There is a realistic scenario where the Ravens win out, get to 11-5 and still don’t make the Play Offs. This would involve the Bills resting all their starters in Week 17 and gifting Miami a win. And then play Miami the following week in the Wildcard.

Bills D is improving against the Run. Thinking of the 49ers game in particular. Bills playing more aggressive. LBs closer to the line of scrimmage. Good test coming up against Broncos.

Wildcard won’t be easy. Lots of good teams. Best options look to be Colts or Dolphins or Raiders. Worst options Titans, Ravens or Browns (run heavy teams). But for the Divisional round you couldn’t ask for better than the Steelers.

Some were hoping for a Browns win to seal a super early Play Off spot for the Bills. But a Browns loss all but confirms the Steelers as AFCN champs with their next game against the Bengals. Steelers will get seeded 2 or 3 if Bills can leapfrog. So if Bills stay at 3 seed (or get to 2) that means if we can get through the Wildcard round the Divisional game will be against Steelers. Steelers seem to be the weakest potential opponent of any of the AFC contenders. Lots can change but that’s not a bad scenario for the Bills. #GoBills

Allen had just lead a superb drive that ended up with Beasley scoring. It was the 4th Quarter Josh Allen we love to see. Had we got the ball back with 4 mins left (down by only 6) on the KC 40 yard line i was confident we would score a go ahead TD.

Josh made a number of tremendous plays against the Titans, converting on 3rd and long. Not his fault the D can't stop anyone on 3rd down or our Running game isn't as good as Titans/Chiefs. Not his fault Smoke dropped a pass on the 1st drive of the game. You can't expect the QB to win the game on his own every week. My only solution is to ask Josh to also play Linebacker !

For the folks saying add a Week 18 to the Regular Season schedule what happens if the Titans or the Bills (or an opponent of the Bills or Titans) have a significant number of personnel with positive Covid tests in future weeks. How many more matches can you reschedule for 1 team. Do you add a Week 19, 20, 21. I don't want to see the Bills travelling to Nashville. Play it Sunday afternoon on a neutral site.

Jim, Bruce, Thurman & Marv.

Do we need to replace Duke Williams ?

Maybe in the 7th round then. Consider that Turk would have a better chance of sticking to the roster than Hodgins.

It's about time for a Punter - Michael Turk.

Wishing you all the best for your visit and hopeful relocation to the UK. I'm a Bill diehard for the last 30+ years based just outside London (in Essex). Plenty of NFL coverage accessible on TV, but alas no dedicated Backers Bars even in London. The Bills must be due another London visit within the next few years (on basis we now have 4 regular season games each year). The Dolphins have a London home game in 2020 with no opponents announced yet (could be the Bills).

Anderson or Palmer seem logical. Might do Allen more harm than good to have someone totally new put a fresh set of ideas in his head or try to tweak his actions. Josh has done well to get through his mentoring period with Peterman.
