AFC Playoff Picture: Buffalo Bills Rooting Interests, Week 15
 

Buffalo Bills (10-3) over Denver Broncos (5-8)


Saturday, December 19 4:30 p.m. EST

The Bills can run to 13-3 and likely secure themselves the two seed in the AFC.

That would mean they host two playoff games before the AFC Championship but also means they wouldn’t have to face the Chiefs until that game, either. Buffalo clinches the AFC East with a win and I’m sure they would rather do it with a W than with a Dolphins loss.

 

Cincinnati Bengals (2-10-1) over Pittsburgh Steelers (11-2) Monday Night Football
 

Detroit Lions over Tennessee Titans (9-4)
Sunday, December 20 1:00 p.m. EST
 

New Orleans Saints over Kansas City Chiefs (12-1)
Sunday, December 20 4:25 p.m. EST  
Not w/o Drew. 
 

New England Patriots (6-7) over Miami Dolphins (8-5)  Sunday, December 20 1:00 p.m. EST


Jacksonville Jaguars (1-12) over Baltimore Ravens (8-5)  Sunday, December 20 1:00 p.m. EST 

 

Houston Texans (4-9) over Indianapolis Colts (9-4)
Sunday, December 20 1:00 p.m. EST

 

New York Giants over Cleveland Browns (9-4)
Sunday Night Football. 

 

that’s some list.  
 

makes some games worth watching

So the likelihood:

 

Buffalo Bills (10-3) over Denver Broncos (5-8) => Yes

 

Cincinnati Bengals (2-10-1) over Pittsburgh Steelers (11-2) => Very low
 

Detroit Lions over Tennessee Titans (9-4) => Low

New Orleans Saints over Kansas City Chiefs (12-1) => Even (But it doesn't matter, the odds of catching KC are very slim)
 

New England Patriots (6-7) over Miami Dolphins (8-5) => The way Cam is playing, Low


Jacksonville Jaguars (1-12) over Baltimore Ravens (8-5)  => Very low

 

Houston Texans (4-9) over Indianapolis Colts (9-4) => Even?

 

New York Giants over Cleveland Browns (9-4) => Low

 

So, the likely best the Bills can do this weekend is WIN and hope to get an upset or two. Best to just concentrate on TAKING CARE OF WHAT YOU CAN CONTROL = the game before you!

I havent yet lost hope on a bye (ya ya it is 1-2% probability) - so I'm going to root for Steelers over the Bengals - only if the Steelers win 2 out a 3, we win 3 and the Chiefs win 1 will we have a three way tie for the bye (which we will win). Would be happy to root against the Steelers Week 16 onwards if KC beats Saints in week 15 (then the probability for a bye even with our win over the Broncos becomes a small fraction of 1%).

I agree with all, except I believe Belicheck will figure out a way to beat the Fins. Damn, they all have pretty easy games though, in general.

Me thinks you have that backwards 

 

Bengals over Steelers 

 

the Bills can get the 2 seed and host 2 playoff games!!!

This game isn't going to matter because we're going to manhandle the Broncos on Saturday, but Belichick simply doesn't lose to rookie QBs.  I actually kind of like New England in this game.

The division race is over. 

 

We want the dolphins to win at least the next two games. Whatever it takes to get them into the playoffs in hopes we match up with them

 

They would be the easiest matchup, by far, in the first round. Assuming the Raiders don't get in.

I think he means he needs the Steelers to be tied with us so he doesn't want them to lose to Bengals and potentially lose out falling behind us giving us the 2 seed but if we tie the Chiefs we lose because of the head to head and don't get the 1 seed. Honestly Bills just need to win everything else will fall how it falls.

I'd like to see the Patriots lose to Dolphins.  They still technically have a chance to make the playoffs and I'd like to see that go away before they play us....then maybe the Dolphins can be eliminated by week 17 which will give us an easier path to 13-3.

 

If the Bills play Bills football they will be 13-3 regardless of what our opposition is or isn't playing for.

the patriots have a real shot of beating the fish.

 

belichik went to LA and shut out the chargers, and their offense is much, much better than the fishes will ever be. The chargers o-line is better, the QB is much better, and their RB and receivers are better.

 

plus, we all know he likes to destroy rookie QBs.

The last game depends on whether the #2 seed is in play at that point. 

 

 

It's odd. This is a decision imo. I think you shoot the the #2 seed. However if you settle for the 3 seed you could get a week of rest. Makes  that a discussion imo.
