Yes, and the last regular season win in Pitt was 1975 (big day for OJ — 227 yards). They have played a pretty fair number of times at Pitt over the decades, and there have been many curb stompings. They are 1-2 in the postseason there. They won in 1992 and lost 40-21 in 1995 and 32-14 in 1974. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 It’s probably more to do with the Steelers still having a chance in their own division, whereas the Bills division is over as soon as Brady comes back to play football every offseason unfortunately Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCal Deek Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 What I’ve yet to see anyone comment on is there’s a very real possibility that the Patriots will have AFC home field advantage already locked up when they host the Bills in Week 16. Could it have an impact on the Bills playoff chances or seeding? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProcessTruster Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Oh 15 hours ago, dave mcbride said: The Bills have the easiest schedule I've ever seen. They have five quite bad teams on tap: Miami, the Jets, the Redskins, Denver, and the Browns. They also have to play one great team on the road, 1 pretty good team at home (Baltimore), and one so-so team with a very inexperienced QB who looks to be about as generic as it gets (Rudolph). I think Miami, the Jets, the Redskins, and Denver are locks. The Browns is a winnable game but tougher, although the Bills have far better coaching. Pittsburgh has to play Indy, the Rams, and the Ravens. They also have AZ on the road, and AZ is not bad. The Bills are more likely to get to ten wins than Pittsburgh. Phins will have righted the ship by the time we play them, Browns certainly will have righted their ship by the time we play them. Every game is a game. Looking past the Redskins is a mistake. if Some Eagles nobody tore em up last Sunday, wait til AP sees those holes. One game at a time boys.

Casey D Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Whatever the ESPN stat is trying to say, if it says there are equal chances to make the playoffs it is plainly wrong. Right now the Bills playoff odds are 63% at 538 which is a great stat site. Pittsburgh is at 26%. These odd include the ability to win the division, i.e., different pathways to a playoff spot, which is why the Bills odds are as low as they are as catching NE is almost impossible at this point. But if the Bills and Steelers both win Sunday, both teams' odds will improve. Steelers may jump to 35%, and Bills to 70%. So the delta for Pittsburgh might improve more (9% to 7%), but no way in absolute terms the odds of making the playoffs are the same. That simply does not make walking around sense when the Steelers would be 2 games back of the Bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logic Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Too early to worry about all this "playoff probability" nonsense and tiebreakers. Win five more games and let the chips fall where they may. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubs Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Ummmm....Pittsburgh is not good. I don’t think they are making the playoffs. Best guess at this point.

Rudolph started out the last game poorly which enabled the Phins to keep the game close but once he got himself turned around and started throwing well, he was throwing dimes. James Conner is a beast -- and unlike the Bills, the Steelers use their running game a lot to take the pressure off their newbie QB. The defense is solid this season, especially with the additions of Minkah Fitzpatrick and rookie Devin Bush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
