KC choke job. Next week will be 3 in a row. Late season swoon.

Well, we saw firsthand what a fraud they are. And can anyone explain why Andy Reid took a timeout just before the Chiefs scored their go-ahead TD? What a gift to SD.

Again, Hali and Houston being out is a major problem for their D. I am personally impressed that they put up as many points as they did, although that is mostly due to an awful Chargers defense.

True...But that's still no excuse for allowing that game winning TD...That was just terrible coverage...It's a relatively short field and KC STILL allows the receiver to get behind 2 DB's in the end zone? Really?

 

They deserved to lose... B-)

Had they been down 7, I'd agree. But down 10 you need two scores. Coming away with zero really puts them in a hole.

It is only two scores if one of them is a touchdown. As Bill Barnwell at Grantland will tell you, 4th and 1 is a TD about 60% of the time. Drives from the far side of the 50 result in touchdowns far less than 60%. They needed a TD and that was their best chance at it.

Additionally, your opponent scores far less from their own 1 should they stop you, then if you kick the fg kick it off and they start at the 20 or so.

Without the Bills stress!

 

The following games are presented in order of importance. Here's who to root for in Week 12.

Ravens (4-6) over Jets (5-5, No. 6 seed)

Buffalo doesn't face New York again, and the Jets are 1.5 games up in the standings. It's the Jets' turn to win in their see-saw season, though. Silver lining: their point differential is the worst in the league, and their conference record is just 2-5. The Ravens will have plenty of chances to lose for Buffalo make up their half-game deficit (full game if they win) on the defending champs.

Panthers (7-3) over Dolphins (5-5)

Buffalo gets a late season shot at home against Miami that they'll need to win, but the Dolphins have to lose one more game. If it comes against an NFC opponent, it's even better.

Chiefs (8-1) over Chargers (4-6)

Buffalo is all but assured of not catching Kansas City. The Chargers still have games at Denver and home against Kansas City to worry about, too. It's going to be tough for San Diego to make a run at the final spot.

Browns (4-6) over Steelers (4-6)

These next two games on our list are close to even for Bills fans. Both the Steelers and the Browns have a win in hand over the Bills, unfortunately. Pittsburgh's schedule looks much easier now coming down the stretch, with games in Baltimore and Green Bay not looking as scary even if Aaron Rodgers is back. Cleveland still has to host Chicago and play at New England, so we'll root for them this week.

Titans (4-6) over Raiders (4-6)

Tennessee has games at Denver and Indy after their trip to Oakland. The Raiders, on the other hand, travel to Dallas and the Jets in addition to home tilts against the top of the AFC West, though Peyton Manning and company could be resting in Week 16. It's probably a wash, but with a better conference record, it would be better if Tennessee came out on top.

Cardinals (6-4) over Colts (7-3)

While it looks like the Colts are going to run away with the AFC South this year, root for the AFC team to lose. If nothing else, it will hurt the strength of schedule for the Titans and strength of victory for the Chargers.

Patriots (7-3) over Broncos (9-1)

Jaguars (1-9) over Texans (2-8)

Buccaneers (2-8) over Lions (6-4)

Similar to the previous game on the list, the Patriots winning would help Buffalo's strength of schedule. Buffalo plays Jacksonville and Tampa Bay, but not Houston and Detroit, so same rules apply. It's the fifth tiebreaker, but it's a tiebreaker nonetheless.

Vikings (2-8) vs. Packers (5-5)

Bears (6-4) vs. Rams (4-6)

Cowboys (5-5) vs. Giants (4-6)

49ers (6-4) vs. Redskins (3-7)

These games don't really matter to the Bills. Play fantasy football.

Just about everything broke the right way for the Bills.

 

Now the Bills have to take care if business the next 5 Sundays.

 

Nice...Miami loses. But how the hell does Wallace get completely behind the D on the prior play?? That was almost a disaster.

I know!

 

I watched Wallace off the line and they just let him run free, no jam and he was wide open for 40 yards and got past the safety.

 

There should have been 3 people all over him.
