Bills fan since 87 Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 We are likely going to win the division and finish as the 4 seed. I mean, I'm ready to say it's obvious. I will after Sunday. Our difficult schedule will keep us from getting to the 3 seed or higher, thus our round one opponent will likely be the second place AFC north team (5 seed Pitt or Balt)in Buffalo. Sure would be nice to have a true home field advantage for that as we'd probably need it. But who knows, why can't we beat the Seattle's or San Francisco's and sneak up to the three seed? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SageAgainstTheMachine Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 It's so high because of the likelihood of winning the division which either gets further boosted or takes a big hit on Sunday. There are a lot of good teams in the AFC that will finish in the neighborhood of 10-6 so staying out of the wildcard mire is of utmost importance. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsfan89 Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 If the Bills can take care of the Pats and fatten up to 6-2 this week I think they have a greater than 95% chance to make the playoffs. Sitting at 6-2 (IF they take care of the Pats) all the Bills would need to do is go 4-4 over the back 8 to get to 10-6 which should at the very least get you a wildcard and most likely win the division. And I know everyone looks at the schedule and thinks the team plays such a hard schedule but honestly its not that bad. I count two really difficult games in the Seahawks and Steelers, two toss ups with the Cardinals and 49ers and four games the team should be favored in (Chargers, Fins, Pats, and Broncos.) Even pessimistically the team should be able to split the toss ups and win 3 out of the 4 winnable games which gets them to 4 wins. Right now you have to take care of the teams you are "supposed" to beat. Just win against the Pats and get to 6-2. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t see us winning either of the next 2 after NE Seattle/Arizona won't be able to pound the run like titans and chiefs did. So I see the Bills competitive in both, especially as they get healthy. So every game will be winnable once they get healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P Riv Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 The Pats are in total disarray right now. Unless we play like total garbage, the Bills should take this one easy. I think the could go 5-3 in the second half of the season. They won't be SB contenders, but a division title and a home playoff win would be a huge leap forward.

Tua will be lucky if he wins any of their next 4 games. The Dolphins aren't winning any division with a rookie QB.

A 6-10 Division winner would actually get a home game over a 13-3 wild card game. Weird, but that is how it works. There is no bye in the Bills future. Guessing that goes to either the Steelers OR Chiefs. Only one bye team this year. I am not sure the playoffs aren't heading to a bubble anyway. It would be awesome if they played all the playoff games in Florida and allowed fans. A home playoff game in Buffalo without fans would be awful.

Do you really believe the Dolphins are going to any better than 3-2 against the Broncos, Chargers, Jets, Bengals, and Pats? I won't be surprised if they go 1-4 in those games. The Chargers, Broncos, and Pats are all equal talent or better and the Bengals show up every week. And they aren't winning any of the other games on their schedule. This love affair with the Dolphins is hilarious. They are a mediocre to bad team that is now starting a rookie QB. That is why Vegas has them right now at 6 wins total. FYI they have the Bills at 9 wins, which sounds about right if we are being honest. 6-2 after this weekend and 3-5 in the second half is very plausible, although I think they go 4-4 in the second half and finish 10-6.
