billvernsays Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 Even if we win out and tie with a 13 - 3 record along with the Patriots we’re still going to be at best a 5th seed. Unless the Pats’ other loss is to Cinn or the Dolphins due to win % of common opponents. 13-3 5th seed seems wrong and It’s very possible it could happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cygnus99 Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 I know it is crazy , we have to beat the Pats and hope the Pats drop a game in order to secure the division . I do not think we are going to win the division but I think we win a playoff game and we might even beat the Pats . That Browns game is gonna cost us the tiebreaker but that is OK . We are having such a good season and just get better and better 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thurman#1 Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 I'll worry about that after we beat the Ravens and the Pats. Which is quite unlikely. Love how we're playing, though. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it has happened before. It would be an anomaly just like when the pats missed the playoffs completely at 11-5. The format allows for these things.

It sucks, but the Titans went into the Music City Miracle game as a 13-3 wildcard team, I believe. For the record, I think we finish 12-4, though.

timekills17 Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 I'll tell you what - if the Bills somehow find a way to beat the Ravens (even at home) and the Pats away, I couldn't care less who or how they get into the playoffs. We'd already know we can beat anyone then, and it just comes down to how they play the game. Right now, even with how the dominated the Cowboys, I'm not confident we're as good a team as the Ravens, at least until their offense is "figured out." But beat them next week - who cares who we beat in the playoffs to get to the Super Bowl, because they will. I'd see the WC weekend as just one more game we get to watch and enjoy.

Need to get that 10th win first but as you pointed out, our away record bodes very well for a potential playoff run...KC and Houston are looking vulnerable after we manhandled the Cowboys' #1 offense and a legit MVP candidate in Dak. REALLY wouldn't mind it if the Titans stayed hot and won that division either...a playoff game in Nashville might as well be a home game in Buffalo.
