Braedenstearns Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 NFL shows us out of the 6th seed and Ravens in it. I thought we somehow had the tiebreaker with them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kmart128 Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Common opponents reached the minimum 4 games so even tho we won we lost the tie breaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 How does the common opponent tiebreaker work viz a vie teams that one team plays twice? So for example the Ravens will play the Bengals twice and we will play them once. With the Dolphins that flips. Anyone know how that is then calculated? Do all of those games count for the tiebreak?

bills6969 Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Doesnt really matter. Ravens are in. Very little chance they lose either of the last 2 games (Colts, Bungles). Its going to come down to Bills, Titans and Chargers for the final spot. Basically just need to root hard against both teams. Titans are down to niners now and have a very tough remaining schedule. Chargers are one game back but have the head to head over us. Really need the Jets to beat them next week or they will have the advantage over us. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmotionallyUnstable Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 If it really comes down to Tenn, LAC and Buff, is it better to be a three way tie at 9-7? We lose the head to head vs LAC if both are 9-7 but if TENN is also at 9-7, I believe we have the three way tie on conference record? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clemfield2622 Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 MAJBOBBY jumped the gun. It won't be until next week when Balt plays Indy that the common opponents tie breaker kicks in.

Nitro Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 The Bills have the tie breaker over Baltimore. The Ravens have a cupcake schedule. Colts and Bengals to close out the season. Look for Tennessee to falter after losing to SF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
