Warriorspikes51 Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 (edited) I went through each team's schedule. Gave the AFC wins vs NFC in most matchups. 1. BUF 13-4 (0-3 in Division after L at NE, rebound to be 3-3 in Division) 2. KC 13-4 (Losses to LAC and CIN/SEA) 3. BAL 12-5 4. TEN 9-8 5. LAC 12-5 6. MIA 11-6 7. CIN 10-7 (Head to head W vs NE to get in) 8. NE 10-7 9. NYJ 9-8 WILD CARD CIN at KC MIA at BAL LAC at TEN DIVSIONAL MIA at BUF LAC at KC CONFERENCE KC at BUF 🙃 Edited November 16, 2022 by Warriorspikes51 5 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Turk Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 I don't see NE winning either game. Belichick hasn't even forced a punt in 2 games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

julian Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 I feel completely comfortable with Bills playing at KC again even after losing there the last 2 years in the playoffs… that game I expect to come down to the wire regardless of where it’s played. I feel the home field against Miami would be much more meaningful IMO 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By that time the Bills should be a lot healthier than they were when they played in Sept. Miami barely beat Buffalo then. I think the Bills would beat them no matter where the game is played. Also, the Dolphins have a weak fanbase. Bills fans would invade their stadium. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FilthyBeast Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 At this point I really don't know what to expect but going with the following: 1) KC 14-3 2) MIA 13-4 3) BAL 12-5 4) TEN 11-6 5) CIN 11-6 6) BUF 11-6 7) NE 10-7 Chargers and Jets also finish 10-7 but miss out due to tie breakers. Also think it will be MIA/KC in AFFCG with KC likely advancing and winning it all again against whoever makes it in the NFC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, the one positive of the loss to Minnesota is that it proves that the team is perfectly capable of frittering away a sure win in an important game at home. Thus, proving that home field is not all that important. We can play better down the stretch on the road than at home as we did in Baltimore and KC.

corta765 Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 Higher probability they lose to CIN or MIA at home then NE imo. Dolphins schedule is not light late, but people need to brace for 12-5 with them and if Buffalo doesn't go 4-2 division and tie MIA they can very easily lose division.

Therefore my reasoning for the Bills finishing 11-6 is I see them losing once against the Pats (likely TNF in NE), again at home to the dolphins for the sweep, and then likely the MNF game at CIN. At this point though would anybody be shocked to see a really bad loss to one of CLE/DET/CHI since all those teams are capable of the upset? That could really be a fatal blow to this teams playoff chances given how tough the AFC is going to be until the final week of the season. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are good but they barely beat an injured Bills team in 100 degree heat. A healthy Bills team in OP. I like the Bills chances to win.

Success Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 It's probably just PTSD, but I see the 1st Pats game as our only potential loss as well. But, I see it as more of a toss-up. Night game at their place will be an advantage for them, but the Bills are still a much better team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nedboy7 Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 I don't see the Bills losing within the division again this year. Can see one more loss at Cincy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TampaBillsJunkie Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 We can win or lose any one of these games. The way we played our last three games, we will be lucky to go 11-6, maybe even 10-7. This is a beat-up team that is finding Billsy ways to lose all over again. And the coaching decisions have been putrid. My guess is that Josh has had a bad elbow long before the Jets debacle. If he doesn't have his arm, we don't have enough horses up front to establish a run game and Dorsey is calling crap plays. This team has been imploding before our very eyes and it's painful to watch. How do you not take a snap and fall forward for the win. That was so pitiful, it still turns my stomach. I'm hoping they turn it around. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 NFL could see a first in the playoffs in 20 years. NFL playoffs including four teams from same division for first time since 2002 is likelier than you think If the playoffs started today, the entire AFC East, the Miami Dolphins, Buffalo Bills, New York Jets and New England Patriots, would be in. What's more, another division in the NFC has a surprisingly good chance to do it, too. Oddly enough, the NFC East also has an outside chance to send all four of its teams to the postseason after the Washington Commanders upset the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday night.

Amaru523 Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 (edited) I have the Bills and Chiefs both finishing 13-4. The Dolphins schedule gets way tougher after their next game, I don't see them winning more than 10 games, I have them as the 7 seed and I have the Jets and Pats both missing the playoffs. Unlike some, I don't except the Bills to stay in their current funk. Edited November 16, 2022 by Amaru523 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BufBills83 Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 Does anyone really see this team missing the playoffs? That would be absolutely inexcusable and major changes should be made if that happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCockSportif Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 Bills get into playoffs as a lower seed, given output and data from last games. From there? Well, that's up to the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Process Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 Right now everyone other than Hyde should be back in the next 2-3 weeks (I know, it feels like we have been saying that since week 1). But if we get everyone back and stay relatively healthy the rest of the way we will lose 1 more game max. Get healthy and go on a tear. I don't see any way the chargers can go 12-5 that's kind of crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This (at least a lot of it) seems more realistic to me than the OP's prediction that we finish #1. I don't see that happening at this point, but it still could. As long as we find a way to get into the playoffs, we should be OK. We will have to throw a switch and go back to lights out Bills play and if we do, we'll beat everyone save KC, and we can beat them too. 2 hours ago, FilthyBeast said: Anything is possible but yes I don't agree with the OP based on the way the 2 teams are playing right now because it would defy logic and there's nothing in McD/Allen's history that says they are going to near run the table with so many tough games on paper left.

I would not be surprised to see a loss this Sunday against Cleveland. It will be interesting to see how we play, and who is playing particular on D. We will struggle to control their run game and their D has been good against traditional shotgun offenses like the Bills. They have had problems with lots of motion and play action---stuff we don't do very much of at all. And then you have the potential weather wild card as well, which only serves to lessen the gap between teams, and that favors Cleveland in this situation as we are the better team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
