We do play each other - so that would give them the head 2 head. They also would have a shot at their division with the ravens. Our division is not in play really so... we only have wild card odds 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to factor in that the prediction is based in part on the Steelers being favored at home to beat the Bills and thus getting the head-to-head advantage. The Bills haven't beaten Pittsburgh in Pitt in decades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming the ravens lose... and the patriots win after this week. That would put them 1 game back and us 2 and 1/2 games back from NE. The chance of them winning their division is higher than ours at that point. They have a better chance to win division, and at 4-4 would still have a fairly good shot at a WC because they would have beaten the colts to put them at 5-3. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's No Moon Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 The Steelers schedule looks pretty inviting (Colts at home, Rams at home, 2 v. Cleveland, Cincinnati, Arizona, Buffalo at home, Jets and Ravens) and the Bills are looking at a 4 game stretch including @Dallas on Thanksgiving, Baltimore, @Pittsburgh, @ New England. Let's say for the sake of argument the Bills lose all of those games because any one of those game would represent the first time McClappy won any game like that. That gives them 6 losses and no tie breaker v. either Baltimore or Pittsburgh. They'd need win every other game on the schedule in that scenario to avoid 9-7. 9-7 puts you in bad situations with Pittsburgh or Baltimore or both. No hiccups, no bad days, no squandered opportunities. Nothing. You feel good about a week 17 game v. the Jets on a 4 game losing streak knowing that if you lose the loser of the Ravens/Steelers game that day has the tiebreaker over you and will probably knock you out? Yeah I didn't think so. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's right. No one else beside the Bills and Pats in the AFC East is going to get to 10, and I feel the same way about the AFC West beyond KC. The AFC Central will be its usual clusterf**k with 4 teams finishing within two games of 8-8. The only teams with a chance of getting to 10 wins in the AFC Central are Baltimore and Pitt, and the latter is 3-4 with a fairly unimpressive young QB. He's going to lose them a couple of games at least. Edited October 31, 2019 by dave mcbride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
