TFBillsfan Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 Right now looks like the Browns win out (Jets and Steelers to finish 12-4, Steelers lose out to Colts and Browns to finish 11-5 and Baltimore wins out (Giants and Bengals) and finish tied with the Steelers at 11-5. Not sure who gets the higher seed between Steelers and Ravens if that were to play out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don’t need help to get it from here on out. That is unquestionably true.

Halloween Land Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 16 minutes ago, Casey D said: It's no different than being ahead in a horse race 100 yards from the wire with horses surrounding you. Talk to me when we hit the wire, especially with the "what if's" about not getting a bye. Nothing sadder than "what if's" especially when you don't know if you have anything to regret. So if you are pooping but the poop hasn't dropped in the toilet yet then did you really poop? Same logic right? 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwai San Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 27 minutes ago, Casey D said: Well that's tautological. Having the second seed after week 15 does not make you the second seed however. There are two games to play. Dang dude.....I had to google that word! Too early in the am to learn big new words!!! Agree with your statement to a degree however I will pontificate that the Bills win out and do indeed remain in the number 2 slot. Go BILLS!!!!

Dolphins will need to win out to get the 7 seed and they play the Raiders this weekend.

Johnnycage46 Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 11 minutes ago, Casey D said: Fair enough, poor choice of words. I guess my real point was that we are currently the #2 seed and people are complaining we don't get a bye. I'm so happy about this team, it just seems small to be whining about a bye or the lack thereof. Maybe it's just my fatigue with certain politicians who whine a lot. I highly doubt this based on your odd choice to start bashing people today lol. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Frankish Reich Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 6 hours ago, Nelius said: Pittsburgh is bad. Any chance they can continue to drop and we see them in the playoffs? Give me stiff bloated Big Ben over Baker, Lamar, Colts defense. Pittsburgh is reeling. I don't think they scare anyone. I haven't looked at all the scenarios, but right now the thing that concerns me most is bad weather. The Bills passing game looks unstoppable by any defense right now, but bad weather can be the great equalizer. I think I'd actually prefer playing the Colts in the Indy dome right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fergie's ire Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 6 hours ago, Nelius said: Pittsburgh is bad. Any chance they can continue to drop and we see them in the playoffs? Give me stiff bloated Big Ben over Baker, Lamar, Colts defense. Right now, I expect them to lose the division to Cleveland. The way the Colts and Browns are playing, in contrast to how the Steelers are playing, would mean that the Steelers lose out and Browns win out and take the division. As for us playing Pittsburgh? Assuming we lose to the Dolphins (and given this scenario, I expect us to have the 2 seed wrapped up), then we would play the 7 seed. Dolphins, Steelers, and Ravens would be tied for the 6th spot. Steelers and Dolphins would have identical conference records...and better than the Ravens...so not sure how it shakes out at that point. Steelers would be in and I think Dolphins would be in...but who gets the 6th and who the 7th? Not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ndirish1978 Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 People who use unnecessarily big words on a message board are my pet peeve. It's a community discussion board, the goal being to foster discussion within the community. Choosing to use words such as tautological is inherently a choice of exclusion and contrary to the purpose of the board. One could presume that you're on this board seeking some sort of validation that you are smarter than everyone else. The problem is, while successfully using a few big words and successfully showing off you vocabulary, you also made a point that was logically absurd. You have essentially put a bow tie on a turd. Congrats. 1 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should have watched. I think you would have been stunned at how badly Pittsburgh played and how disinterested Ben looked. Three Steelers turnovers but could easily had been 6. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seventeen Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 (edited) Having the 2nd seed could mean at least 2 home games and a possible AFC Championship game in Buff if KC is taken out in the divisional round. Cuomo needs to open the gates for some of the Bills mafia. Edited December 22, 2020 by Looper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
