Playoff chances

Since the Ravens keep winning with Lamar Jackson, we’ll need to win out to have a shot. 

 

Colts are a problem too, but they have the opposite of our schedule - 4 tough games and 1 easy game (Giants).  Them losing to the Jags this week would be really helpful. 

 

I actually wouldn’t be surprised given our remaining schedule and the team blowing out the Jets and beating the Jags these past 2 weeks, but alas New England remains and we apparently will never beat Tom Brady so it is what it is.

So we currently stand at 4-7, 3-5 in the AFC

We are 2 games behind Ravens and Colts and 1 game behind Dolphins, Bengals, Broncos, Titans. 

Do we still have a chance? Still thinking 9-7 with 7-5 AFC record could sneak us. 

 

 

Check back in 3 weeks

 

baltimire and Indy have 2 of 3 on the road thus could have 7 losses

if tenessee Lise tonight and 1 in next 3 they’d have 7 lises

denver placed cincinati so one has 7 loses, the winner loses another game

browns lose a game..they are ahead of buffalo by a half game

buffao wins 3 straight

 

then last WC us tied by a bunch st 7-7

 

if New England can clinch division before week 16 they could rest players.

We aren’t going to make the playoffs simply because a lot more has to happen in addition to us running the table.  

 

Can we run the table, sure it’s certainly possible, even though I don’t expect us to.  I think we finish either 7-9 or 8-8 personally.  But even if we run the table we need some other teams who are playing well to lose a lot the rest of the season.  As some has mentioned, a couple teams we would be competing with to get that final spot have a tie breaker on us like Ravens and Colts.

 

To be honest, I would prefer to not make the playoffs.  I will never root against the Bills or push for a loss, but if I had to pick a preferred finish today, I would take 7-9 as that will put us in a nice spot in the draft while also seeing us above .500 on our remaining games to keep building on.  

 

We have a very low percentage of making playoffs if we win out, so I would like to see us win more than lose while also getting a little better positioned in the draft to keep adding to this foundation.  

 

Again, every Sunday I will be cheering for a win and for Allen’s success.  So not gonna root for them to lose, just being honest on my expectations that making playoffs is not very realistic and I would like the best shot at the best weapons for Allen or best protection for Allen in the draft next year.  I certainly won’t complain if we win out, I will love every second of it.
