BuffaloRebound Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Bills beat the Pats this week and we’re right in line for the 2 or 3 seed. Kind of amazing when you consider an 0-5 record in 1 score games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree...but that is not good come playoff time...a lot of those are one score games where the team with the ball last has a chance to win.

nedboy7 Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 It's not just the Bills that are underestimated on here week to week. How many times did we read that the Colts suck or the Pats suck or that the whole AFC sucks. Good teams lose games as well. Bucs got shut out last night. We will hear about how they suck. This is all nonsense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBrownBear Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 I saw that while looking at the standings last night and it got me thinking: has the number 1 point differential team over the entire season ever missed the playoffs? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was to help teams get players back they wouldn't have forced Denver to play with no QB last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren't even testing vaccinated players anymore. Baker out--huge bonus for the Raiders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's truly it, it doesn't really make sense then because it goes against everything they have publicly stated for the past year and a half. Baker and Keenum out, who is their backup. Mullens starting...while he hasn't always played great, he is capable of winning in a single game...he played fairly well against the Bills last year and threw for over 300 yards and 3 TDs. Also had a 300+ yard game against the Giants and a near 300 yard game against the Packers last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giuseppe Tognarelli Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 3 hours ago, Big Turk said: If Cleveland wins tonight it would be a minor miracle while fielding a team of replacement players. Plus their remaining schedule after tonight is brutal and they might not win another game...Packers, Ravens, Bengals. Exactly why it's irrelevant like I said Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steptide Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 11 hours ago, Big Turk said: Many think the team isn't good and yet we lead the NFL with a +151 point differential, 11 more than the second place Patriots and 47 more than the 3rd place Cowboys. It's hard to reconcile these two things. It's crazy that the difference between the 7th seed (bills) and the 1 seed (kc) is 2 games. And then you have a bunch of teams "in the hunt" at 7 or 8 wins. I can't remember a year where there were so many teams with such similar records in the afc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately they seem to be stacked in the AFC with the NFC only having about 3 or 4 really good teams and then a bunch of mediocre ones. Bills would be a shoe in for the playoffs there.
