boyst Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 (edited) Again, just like every year we hurt ourselves in the playoff chances by beating and out of division opponent. The difference between us and the Patriots is that they win the games against their division, not these meaningless games like today. It's embarrassing.

Dadonkadonk Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Yes, they would have been far better off to be 1-2 with a win over either Balt or LA. But they stil have the Texans, Tenn, and all their division games. A win over GB doesn't seem so out of the realm of possibility right now. That would put them a 2-2. 90% of this board thought 2-2 was impossible before the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference between us and the Patriots is that we win the games against our division, not these meeting this games like today. It's embarrassing. It depends. Beating a bad out-of-conference team is worse, because it proportionally weakens you in the strength-of-schedule tie-breaker in playoff determinations (since you've made your opponents' overall record worse.) Beating a good out-of-conference team has an impact on your strength of schedule, of course, but it's a proportionally lesser impact. So really, the degree to which the Bills damaged their playoff hopes today depends ultimately on how good the Vikings' record is. If they end 9 and 7, then the Bills' win is only a 10% reduction in the Vikings' contribution to strength-of-schedule (because if the Bills lost, the Vikes would be 10-6, so that one game is 10% of their total.) But if the Vikings end up 4-12, then it's a 20% reduction, which is a significant impact to the Bills' playoff tie-breaking chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casey D Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Hardly. Committing treason against the United States to keep people enslaved is pathetic. We saved you from even further backwardness. Given how much money the South sucks off the blue states even today, it would be fine if you just said "thank you."

Being that slavery was not illegal and the Confederate States properly initiated secession then no we did not act treasonous. your political statements aside, you really do need to understand the whole Civil War.
