CosmicBills Posted December 31, 2004 Share Posted December 31, 2004 If the Jets win, the Bills won't make it. The Colts won't play their starters for long if the Jets win in anticipation of a Saturday WC game. So LET'S GO RAMS!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsGuyInMalta Posted December 31, 2004 Share Posted December 31, 2004 I have a really good feeling that the Jets will lose in St.Louis. It'll be close, but I see the Rams pulling it out in the last minute and ending the Jets playoff chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATBNG Posted December 31, 2004 Share Posted December 31, 2004 I cannot for the life of me understand why all of the "experts" are so high on the Jets this weekend. 186654[/snapback] AFC East is 12-2 against the NFC West this year, and has outscored them by more than two touchdowns on average in each game. So far the Bills, Pats and Jets are 10-0 in these games. Rams have two wins outside their division - home vs. TB and last week's home scrimmage.

MadBuffaloDisease Posted December 31, 2004 Share Posted December 31, 2004 AFC East is 12-2 against the NFC West this year, and has outscored them by more than two touchdowns on average in each game. So far the Bills, Pats and Jets are 10-0 in these games. Rams have two wins outside their division - home vs. TB and last week's home scrimmage. Bulger is 18-2 at home. Martz is undefeated in the last month of the season at home. Pennington's arm is gimpy, John Abraham is out, and the Rams have every motivation in the world to play. I say they focus on shutting-down Martin and Jordan, force Pennington to beat them, and use a healthy dose of Jackson and throws to Bruce and Holt, and it's a Rams win.

I say they focus on shutting-down Martin and Jordan, force Pennington to beat them, and use a healthy dose of Jackson and throws to Bruce and Holt, and it's a Rams win. 186711[/snapback] The question was why the experts are high on the Jets. The fact that not once in ten tries this season has an NFC West team playing the Bills, Pats or Jets come within seven points of them (much less beat them) is my explanation. Pretty straightforward stuff. This is a good example of "stats" that can be used to pursue either side of an argument. Ultimately the stat that is more relevant will be the determining factor. In this case, I'm guessing that the 2004 dominance by the AFC East is most relevant, and that Martz's record in December of 2000 is quite a ways down there on the list. I like the Jets a lot, but admittedly I have found ample reasons to bet against Martz on many occasions in the past five years. On Sunday we'll know for sure.

Yecch. No Roethlisberger, and from the sounds of things, no Bettis or Duce either. The only man standing between the Bills and the playoffs could very be Verron Haynes. Buffalo 14, Pittsburgh 10 N.Y. Jets at St. Louis Indoors, the fast rug, playoffs on the line for both teams, and I'm going with Marc Bulger over Chad Pennington. St. Louis 24, Jets 23 Indianapolis at Denver Forecast for Sunday in Denver: 53, low winds, sun. If Peyton Manning plays the whole game, which I don't see happening (I see him playing a half), Colts put up 35. If not, this score happens. Trevor Pryce, this is why they pay you the big bucks. Denver 23, Indianapolis 21" At least one guy thinks the Bills will make it in. Too bad it's Peter King. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

njsue Posted January 1, 2005 Share Posted January 1, 2005 I dont believe the Jests will win this game vs the rams. The rams offensive weapons Tory Holt, Issac Bruce, Marshall Faulk & Steven Jackson will most definitly score alot of points vs the Jests overrated defense. The NFC west has not been clinched yet. So the rams have some real significance towards winning this game. The rams win the game, they win the NFC WEST. Bills will get in the playoffs curtousy of the Jests.
