EmotionallyUnstable Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 (edited) I didn’t see a thread from @SlimShady'sSpaceForce on match-ups. With the Thursday night game in the books, here is a look at the AFC win/losses of teams that are hanging around (not seeded, just records)These picks are specifically assuming a race for the Wildcard: KC 10-4. (Week 15 complete) NE 9-4 TEN 9-4 BALT 8-5 LAC 8-6. (Week 15 complete) IND 7-6 DEN 7-6 CLV 7-6 CIN 7-6 BUF 7-6 PIT 6-6-1 LVR 6-7 MIA 6-7 There are a ton of good games this week (NFC too!) with undoubtable playoff implications. I have bolded the teams who I think we want to win . Take a look: SATURDAY: Browns (7-6) vs. Raiders (6-7) Patriots (9-4) vs. Colts (7-6) SUNDAY EARLY: Titans (9-4) vs. Steelers (6-6-1) Jets (Dumpster Fire) vs. Dolphins (6-7) Bills (7-6) vs. Panthers (NFC, idk/idc) SUNDAY LATE: Bengals (7-6) vs. Broncos (7-6) Denver has three tough games left (Raiders, Chargers, Chiefs) Packers (NFC, idk/idc) vs. Ravens (8-5) This would have the standings following week 15 looking like this: Division Leaders (not seeded) KC 10-4. NE 10-4 TEN 10-4 BALT 8-6 Wildcard (not seeded) LAC 8-6. DEN 8-6 BUF 8-6 In the hunt (not seeded) IND 7-7 LVR 7-7 CLV 7-7 CIN 7-7 PIT 6-7-1 MIA 6-8 GO BILLS!!!

BuffaloBillyG Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 That Pats/Colts game really should tell us our best shot at seeding. Pats win and our only hope is to win out and hope the Dolphins beat the Pats again in the final week. Colts win and we control our own destiny to the AFCE title. I'm pulling for the Colts here since division is still in play and I feel like the Bills stand a great shot at winning out. 16 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason multiple people here haven’t grasped this yet. This was discussed in a different thread Thursday night and even today we still have posters wanting the Pats to beat the Colts. It doesn’t make sense at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCal Deek Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Isn’t the issue whether the Bills could be completely eliminated if it comes down to a tie between them and Indianapolis? Obviously the Bills need to win on Sunday. But as to the Pats and Colts all you can do is wait for the final score and see what it means. Rooting for either one is probably a crap shoot. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 As much as I hate the thought of KC having home field advantage throughout the playoffs again, the Chargers blowing that game last night was good for the Bills if we don’t win the division. Still, I agree the best results this weekend would be Indy over Pats*** and a Bills win, which essentially sets up a showdown for the division the following week (and yes, I’m presuming the Bills will beat Atlanta and the Nyets). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djp14150 Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Denver beat chargers, can beat vegas, and they could have beaten the chiefs without the turnovers. Btw denver is home against KC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as the Bills win out they are in. After that, it's just a matter of the tiebreaker playing into seeding between the Colts and Bills if both are in the Wild Card.

loveorhatembillsfan4life Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Yeah got to root for Ne to lose and have a shot at the division. If we can’t beat Ne then what do we really have? A team that’s beaten no one all season, hoping to sneak In with help. Even if the Pats win against Indy I need to see four wins to give some hope maybe we can do some damage. Four wins and we may be talked about as a hot team coming into form. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with all of this except Jets over Miami. NE/Indy I can go either way. Just a frustrating position we’re in that I can’t just straight up root for Indy. One paves the way for the division championship, while the other gives us more cushion if we don’t run off 4 straight. Miami could potentially help us and we’d have to lose twice for them to clear us with the head to head sweep. I’d rather they have something to play for against Tennessee and New England.

Besides KC (and Washington, who’s turning out to be fairly decent I guess). EDIT: and Miami!

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 The Patriots colts game isn’t something to get all fired up about. Either way 1 of them are going to lose and either way that’s good for us. If the colts lose, great now there’s another loss for a wildcard team that has a head to head over is. If the Pats lose, great now if the Bills handle their own here against the Panthers then the following week is for the division. Nobody is right or wrong on their rooting interest on that one. First things first, this team has to get in. The division is nice but it’s not necessary. Being the 5 or 6 would actually probably give us a better first round matchup anyway but…just beat the Panthers and take it from there. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a fact. And believe it or not...Miami could potentially knock NE out of the playoffs. Miami (6-7) has: Jets Saints Titans Patriots NE (9-4) has: Colts Buffalo Jacksonville Miami Miami should beat the Jets and Saints. And if they beat the Titans would be sitting at 9-7 for the Pats rematch. NE should beat Jacksonville. If they drop games to the Colts and Bills (both possible) they sit at 10-6. Miami and NE would basically be a play-in game with the winner advancing (Miami hits the 7 seed). NE it 10-7 would have lost the tiebreaker to Miami, the Colts, and the Bills (providing we win out). Hopefully Frank Reich can come through this weekend for the Bills 1 more time. Edited December 17, 2021 by No Place To Hyde 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat68 Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 No way that I’m rooting for the wildcard before the division. Colts win and Bills wins next weekend Buffalo can reclaim the division and a home playoff game. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg S Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 With the way things are going for the Browns I would expect the Raiders to win tomorrow. The Packers should beat the Ravens especially with Jackson hurting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
