I think the Bills finish 5-1 to go 10-6

 

Wins:

 

KC, HOU, PHI, NYJ, DAL

 

Loss:

 

WSH

 

But I don't think it's crazy to see 6-0 there either.

I want what you got!

I put in what I expect to happen each week, got the following:

 

AFC: NFC:

1. NE (16-0) 1. CAR (14-2)

2. CIN (14-2) 2. GB (13-3)

3. DEN (11-5) 3. ARI (13-3)

4. INDY (9-7) 4. NYG (10-6)

5. PIT (11-5) 5. MINN (10-6)

6. BUF (10-6) 6. ATL (10-6)

 

Based on that I like Arizona over NE in the SB. Also, based on those records the Bills will get pick 26 in the draft, and the top ten are:

1. TENN (3-13)

2. BAL (3-13)

3. SF (4-12)

4. CLE (4-12)

5. SD (4-12)

6. WAS (5-11)

7. CHI (5-11)

8. NO (5-11)

9. MIA (5-11)

10. PHI (5-11)

So do you have the Bills winning this week?

you have to be a real Negative Nancy not to be able to plug in reasonable Bills wins to see they get a WC.

 

The machine does most of the work for them too.

Heck, if you go by power rankings (I know you disagree with that criteria a bit though) we lose to the chiefs and still make it in as a 6 seed

Bills playoffs start this week, they have to beat KC, NYJ and Houston or they are out.

 

No they don't. They have to win 5 of the 6 (doesn't matter who they lose to in that scenario) OR win 4 of the 6 with both defeats against NFC opponents.

If you look at all the most likely scenarios, it's all going to come down to us and Pitt. We win out or lose tomorrow and win the next 5- we are in unless Pitt wins all remaining games. However, we can lose tomorrow and lose another and as long as Pitt loses two, we are in. Luckily, they play Seattle in Seattle Sunday, They also go to Cinci and have Broncos come to town. So they have it fairly tough. If we lose to KC Sunday it is crucial we get a Pitt loss too. My money is on them losing Sunday and to Cinci. We can lose to KC and Washington and still go in.

That is true so long as our second loss is not Houston or the Jets - it has to be an out of conference loss.

I didn't realize that.

 

In that case, our season isn't over if we lose tomorrow.

 

It most definitely isn't. We can even get in if the second loss is the Jets (although I am not sure that is all that realistic a scenario). We have to have 1 of the next 2 and actually the Houston game is bigger for me. Kansas City are going to get to 10 or 11 wins - I am convinced they get in. I think Houston are a team who if they beat us can still get to 9... they have the Saints at home, Tennessee on the road and Jacksonville home. So if we lost to Houston we need every other game because otherwise that head to head hurts us badly.

If we lose Sunday, I don't think we lose to Houston. I am just looking at what are the most likely scenarios. It is more likely that we beat Houston at home. So a loss to KC and to any other team other than Houston to go 9-7 and we are still extremely likely to get in. Given the probable scenario that Pitt will lose at least two of the three likely losses they have.ahead.

I got the Bills at 10-6 and out of the playoffs on the basis of losing to the Chiefs who also finish 10-6. Steelers take the #5 seed at 12-4

 

AFC South comes down to week 17 Jagoffs @ Texans

NFC Norris produces 3 playoff teams with the division going down to week 17 Min @ GB

I think it's going to come down to the final week of the season unfortunately. Win and we are in. Lose and we need KC to lose too and then we hold the tie breaker over the Jets. So basically we need to win on Sunday or we aren't making the playoffs. No pressure though!
