Billsfanatixs Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 According to the playoff machines. if the Bills finish out 1win 1 loss, we would be much better off if that loss from from New England. Like 70% chance if we Beat Miami vs. 46% chance if we beat New England. If we win out, 99% chance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam727 Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 The difference in probabilities is because at 9-7, a win against Miami gives the Bills the tiebreaker over Baltimore, but if the win comes against NE that gives the tiebreaker to the Ravens. (At 10-6 the Ravens also hold the tiebreaker) Ironically (luckily?) the two games against the Pats this year have less playoff implications for Buffalo than any other games since Week 10. But win or lose this Sunday it's unlikely the Bills get into the playoffs without a win against Miami next week. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way we win by two scores...because if we were ever fortunate to get a lead in this game Dennison and the offense would go into conservative mode until the other team was able to comeback and win. Plus, Brady happens to play better when he’s losing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would it have to be a 4-way 8-8 tie with the Ravens, Titans and Chargers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PromoTheRobot Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 Make it simple. Root for the Jets to beat the Chargers. Then all we need is a win over Miami and the Jags to beat the Titans. (Rams/Titans and all Ravens games become moot.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a Tuel Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 (edited) Bills get in at 8-8 if: Titans lose 2 (Everyone thinks this will happen) Chargers lose 1 (Everyone thinks this is somewhat possible bordering on unlikely) Ravens lose 2 (No one thinks this will happen) Edit: plus Dolphins lose to the Chiefs Even if the Chargers win one, the Bills get in on the 4 way 8-8 tie across 2 wildcards. http://espn.go.com/nfl/playoffs/machine/_/factor/wins/results/400951748~1~400951739~2~400951791~2~400951596~2~400951642~2 Edited December 23, 2017 by What a Tuel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
