It's interesting because the ESPN playoff machine gives the tie to the Dolphins but if I enter the exact same scenario (including other afc games) into the NY Times simulator it gives the Bills the advantage over Miami. Not sure which one is right.

Where is DC Tom when we need him? Both the Browns have a bad tendency of getting caught in traffic (which is killing the run D) and not read/anticipating the play quickly enough. Go watch the Cowboys or Pats, two teams that rush 3 guys a lot, and watch how their LBs close on the ball like a lightining bolt. When the QB makes the easy read and dumos it off vs. the Bills the TE or back scampers down field for a first down way more often than they should.

Coughlin isnt a system guy, hes a delegator. The game passing him by isnt my concern, its that even if the Bills finally find success there will be HC turnover in 4-5 years regardless. Oh how Id love to finally find a quality HC and let him roam the sidelines for a decade.

I never realized he was 24 years old. The Bills must have the three oldest "project" QBs in the league. If Miami loses to the Jets on Saturday I agree. If they win, and the Bills are eliminated, theres no reason to play him.

Yeah, as much as in pains me to say it, that writer is spot in.

And Ill be the guy to say it. I give two sh*ts is Hughes doesnt want to be on the team because somebody wants him to contol himself and show some dicipline. Dont let the door hit your ass on the way out if a little dicipline is more than you can handle.

It could be argued that all those non Bills' fans see things more clearly because they're not blinded by 17 years of frusteration. Not saying we should keep Rex, I think hes done a bad job, but every 2 or so years fans always justify the firing of a HC and pretty much say, "this time is different!" Im guilty of it too.

Fisher led his team to the playoffs 4 times in his first 9 full seasons, including the SB and an AFC championship game. 4 times in 9 years isnt great but he hardly has the trash record that people make it out to be.. He had more playoff seasons than losing seasons with the Titans and had a .542 winning percentage. Now, Im not saying he was some great coach, but people act like hes the worst thing that ever happned to coaching, and hes not. Hes just a douchebag which makes people want to labke him horrible instead of the above average coach he was for much of his career.

Rex said, "Its still my defense." So in his own words he takes the majority of the blame.

Tennessee doesn't have to lose 2 of 3. Instead, Houston can lose 2 of 3. As long as the runner up in that division doesn't have 9 wins it doesn't matter. If the Bengals can beat the Texans in week 16 and the Titans lose to the Chiefs this week their head to head matchup in week 17 doesn't mean a thing to the Bills.

I'm fine with that. I don't care if the Bills get into the playoffs with a 7-9 record like the Seahawks did awhile back. I'll take a "we're just not as sh*tty as everybody else" playoff birth any day.

I'm absolutely rooting for the Bills to win their last three games. I'll be watching, no matter what, and I enjoy the games a hell of a lot better when my favorite teams plays well. Losing out doesn't guarantee anything either, just like winning doesn't keep the momentum moving into next season. But winning makes my Sundays better.

I'm sure the Patriots, Dolphins and Jets fans are content with it.

The Bills need way more help than that. Also, the Ravens could lose this week to the Eagles and still win that Bengals game. Bills just need the Ravens to lose two of 3, including the Steelers game.

Need the Pats to handle the Bronco too. Have to have the Ravens to lose to either the Eagles this week or Bengals week 17. Would be great if it happened this week. It would be very helpful if the Chiefs beat the Titans and the Jags beat Houston but they're not absolutely needed though given the Titans remaining record I'm hoping they lose this week. Vikings beating the Colts would be helpful too but not critical.

I've asked my wife if she did it intentionally knowing I'd come along behind to fix it. She swears she doesn't...but I have my doubts.

My wife can't load the dishwasher for sh*t. It's like she doesn't even try to maximize the space, she just tosses it all in there in any willy-nilly any random way she can. Annoys the hell out of me that I have to take the time to completely reorganize it. I'd rather her just not "help." The thing that completely drives me crazy is she insists on putting chop sticks into the silver wear compartment despite the fact that they slide though and hit the bottom of the dishwasher. So when you go to pull the drawer out it gets stuck on the chop stick, sometimes breaking it, and often times throwing the drawer off the track. I've almost lost the entire lower drawer of dishes onto the floor a few times as the drawer went off the track due to a chop stick. And no, we don't use chop sticks that often, but we'll order Chinese every 3 or 4 weeks and without fail, no matter how many times I ask her not to do it, she puts the f$&%*ing chop sticks in the silver wear drawer! And yeah, it just happened a few moments ago, so its' fresh in my mind and this is the first place I thought of to vent.

Belichick couldn't win with that roster.

Lynn inherited Roman's system. He wasn't going to change it mid season. I have no clue what a Lynn offensive system would actually look like. Perhaps it's similar but who knows, he's never run an offense before.

Why Kim? She's an owner, first off. Secondly, what is up with posters singling her out? As if she made the decision to hire Rex and totally overrode her husbands opinion? The Pegulas, both of them, share the blame for the hire.

Sadly I still root for the Bills and Inroot for the teams that will help the Bills get into the playoffs. I'll do this until the Bills are mathematically eliminated. Once that happens I'll still root for the Bills but I'll start to put more focus on UCLA basketball which this year is actually good.

Your example is LaFell? A guy who never had more than 49 catches in any year before arriving at the Pats and then proceeds to put up 74 in his first season with NE? His numbers weren't nearly as good his second year as he dealt with a foot injury that kept him out 5 games and hampered him in some others but despite that he still put up numbers that were comparable to his career averages prior to arriving in NE. I'm guessing there are guys one could bring up to prove it's not everybody, but LaFell isn't one of them.

EJ has started a grand total of 16 games in his career yet somehow he's been given "chance after chance" while we still don't know enough about Tyrod to toss him aside? I want to start EJ, not to evaluate him, but because I doubt Jones is ready and I don't want TT to get hurt. It's that simple.

But he's not 17-15. He's 14-15. And the reason he doesn't have a D is because he destroyed it. He made a top tier D into a lower-middle tier D. The talent on the D is there if utilized to accentuate it's strengths. We've seen it done, it's not hypothetical.
