Braedenstearns Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 A win against the Steelers guarantees us a playoff spot. Seeing they are right under us along with Titians (who we already have the tie breaker with) having a tie breaker with Steelers would be just as important Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerseyBills Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 It's actually huge. We luck out big time as far as playoffs because Ten plays Hou , both 8-5 , twice. So one is guaranteed to have 10 ws Max and we hold tiebreaker. Basically as long as we win 1 of the next 3 , we're in but I view Pitt as inferior and feel we should win and also gives us hope at the division. Very big game for both teams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atlbillsfan1975 Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 (edited) I think so. It’s the next game and a win puts the Bills in the playoffs. Not to mention a win also helps the Bills stay close enough to the Pats that the division could still come into play.

/dev/null Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Biggest game of the season so far. But if we beat the Steelers in week 15, the biggest game of the season then becomes week 16 against the Patriots* for the AFCE lead 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will be tough to beat at their place in prime time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have the worst SOS in the NFL this season, we aren't winning any tiebreakers this year, its 10 wins or bust for us. 9-7 gets you nowhere. 2017 was a 3 way tie, San Diego, Balt ,and Buffalo so then head to head goes out and don't think we even played Baltimore. Having said that, the likelihood of the last playoff spot coming down to only two teams tied at 9-7 is fairly low IMO. So good chance head to head does go out the window. At 10 wins not as likely to se three teams tied at that record. Likely Indy loses next week, Oak has a good chance of winning out as far as teams they are playing. But they've also lost three straight,. so who knows. Tenn may lose all three or win only one remaining game. Even if Buffalo loses the next two and beats the Jets' they are very likely in. Supposed it's possible to have a 4 way tie between Buffalo, Texans, Tenn, and Pitt, at that point, who knows who's in and out.?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
