TwistofFate Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 Currently, we are set to face New England in the first round for a bully match. Looks like we have a shot at facing the Raiders as well. Going to be very interesting moving forward. I DO NOT want a loss against NE in the playoffs.

GunnerBill Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 If we start from the premise we are almost certainly the #4 then here is how I think it lays out (our slim chance of being the #3 is for a Burrow-less Bengals to lose to the Browns next week). Scenario 1: NE beats MIA IND beats JAX LAC beats LV Buffalo plays New England in the wildcard Scenario 2: NE loses to MIA IND beats JAX LAC beats LV Buffalo plays Indianapolis in the wildcard Scenario 3: NE beats MIA IND beats JAX LV beats LAC Buffalo plays New England in the wildcard Scenario 4: NE loses to MIA IND beats JAX LV beats LAC Buffalo plays Las Vegas in the wildcard 1 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your premise is wrong. We can also be 3rd if Bengals win but Chiefs lose, and it is definitely at least worth mentioning. NY Times says we have 50% to end up 3rd if we beat Jets, and while l agree it is in fact a little less our chances are not "slim".

wjag Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 Was wondering what it was going to take for the Phins to get into the playoffs. They are alive but only need this improbable series of events to occur per the Miami Herald. Denver winning or ties Chargers today AND THEN THIS: A Miami win against New England; and a Cincinnati win at Cleveland; and a Chargers win at Las Vegas; and a Cleveland win at Pittsburgh Monday night; and a Pittsburgh win at Baltimore next Sunday.

Nextmanup Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 I feel like it's gonna be New England, and I think that's great. They'll have the worst starting QB in the playoffs, and it's hard to find playoff teams with middling QB talent. We are the bette team, and already beat them in their own building when it mattered and it wasn't a blizzard. I'm really hoping it's New England.

Ok maybe but I still think it needs to be listed at least. Anyway you wrote it quite complicated You have Colts beating Jags in all scenarios and you have NE win listed as two scenarios for no reason... It just goes like this. We are very likely 4th seed, provided that Bengals beat Browns and huge favourites win - Bills over Jets, Chiefs over Broncos and Colts over Jags. If that happens we play: Patriots, if they beat Dolphins. If Patriots lose, we play Raiders, if they beat Chargers or Colts, if Chargers beat Raiders.

Steptide Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 I don't wanna watch another bills/Pats game this year, BUT, if we're a championship team, we need to beat these kinda teams in the playoffs. I think I'd rather play the Pats than the cheifs at this point. My expectations (right now) are actually pretty low for the bills in the playoffs. Not sure we can get back to the championship game, but even if we do, I'm not sure how confident I am this team can win a super bowl. We'll see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
