Process Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Division race isn't over. Pat's go to Cincinnati next week. As bad as the Bengals are they do have talent. Mixon just had a big game against the Browns. Dalton sucks but he's still a vet QB with the potential to have a solid game. Boyd and Ross are a good WR duo. Obviously their defense is horrid but Pat's O has looked awful and the game is in Cincinnati, maybe the Bengals can slow them down. I don't think the Dolphins have a chance.

Mark Vader Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 (edited) Bengals have been playing very tough the last 4 weeks, and they get the Patriots* at home. New England wants to get that playoff spot locked up, but this will not be an easy win for them. I would not be shocked if the Bengals won.

Rocky Landing Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 After how the Dolphins played today, I can't imagine the Pats* losing to them at home. Andy Dalton is back starting, isn't he? How much would Bills Mafia donate to his charity if he beat the Pats*? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Sack Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 (edited) Dalton could move the ball, but I don’t see them running the ball on them, which is where the Pats are vulnerable. I’m all for a 3 game Pats losing streak. Maybe Dalton can deliver us another gift, provided Josh Allen doesn’t do one of his abysmal sub 50% completion game.

BuffaloBillyG Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Miami winning in NE is unlikely, but not out of the question. You have to admire how hard they play for Flores. I don't see them rolling over the way they did for Gase last year in week 17. This will be their Super Bowl. It's a chance to give a coach in Flores a keynote win against his old team. And who knows, it may very well be the final game in Fitz's career. I'm not foolish enough to expect a Miami win, but the week 17 spoiler role is something that someone seems to play every season.

/dev/null Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Doesn't matter If the Bills win out, the Bills would be 12-4 If the Pats beat the Dolphins and Bengals, and lose to the Bills, the Pats would also be 12-4 Both teams would be 5-1 in the division Bills would 9-3 in AFC.

It has been discussed numerous times. The Pats loss to Houston - assured them of having a better common opponents record if the 2 teams are tied. We need either a better record than the Pats or we need to beat the Pats and Jets and Miami beats NE - so we win divisional record. Sorry to burst your bubble. Winning out does not get us the division without a loss by NE to either Cincinnati or Miami so the Bills have a better record. The Bills can lose to Pittsburgh and still win the division winning the last 2 if NE loses to Miami, but not if their 2nd loss is to Cincinnati.

To Break A Tie Within A Division If, at the end of the regular season, two or more clubs in the same division finish with identical won-lost-tied percentages, the following steps will be taken until a champion is determined. Two Clubs Head-to-head (best won-lost-tied percentage in games between the clubs). Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the division. Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the conference. Strength of victory. Strength of schedule. Best combined ranking among conference teams in points scored and points allowed. Best combined ranking among all teams in points scored and points allowed. Best net points in common games. Best net points in all games. Best net touchdowns in all games. Coin toss Buffalo lost to Philly and Cleveland, both of whom NE* beat. NE's losses were to KC and HOU (Buffalo didn't play either) and Baltimore. We have to be ahead of them by a game to win the division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg S Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 No. Given how the Pats got screwed on a couple of calls yesterday I would imagine the evil empire will be in a bad mood all week.

ProcessYaDigg Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Unfortunately, no. And we're the ones who put ourselves in this position. Point blank, we shouldn't have let the Brown beat us.

RochesterRob Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 I'd be more worried about our upcoming game versus the Steelers. We have a pretty poor recent history with them. Further, we are going to face them in a prime time matchup which they thrive on. Add to that their big national fanbase which no doubt the NFL will appease to make sure they make the playoffs so expect another screw job by the refs. I hate to say this but the Jets game will be huge for us and will come down to the closing minutes of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olliemets Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Lets take care of business, beat the Steelers Sunday night and go to New England with a chance.

Scott7975 Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 It’s possible. Unlikely but definitely possible. I’d say about the same chance the Bills has at beating the Ravens last night and that was close. Fitz usually plays the pats tough. Depends on which Fitz shows up.

JimJaime Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Any team can be beaten by any other week to week. Pats I DOUBT they lose to Cincy especially after how they lost to KC at home. I expect a rather lopsided score for the Pats win.. (I expect a few TO By the Pats D and at least 1 ST big play). i expect the Steeers v Bills game be a hard fought affair with a final score of like 10-7.. both D’s looking really good right now.. and the Steelers are on their 3rd string QB..
