Chaos Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 The team on the left is the team I think best benefits the Bills by losing in this weeks games. Dolphins -9.5 favorites vs Washington Chargers - 5.5 favorites vs New England Browns +3.5 underdongs to Rams Bengals +8.5 underdogs to the Jaguars Steelers -6.5 favorites over the Cardinals Broncos +3 underdogs to the Texans Colts -1.5 over the titans Quite a few fanbases running the "if we win out" numbers at this point. 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why but I still feel like a 10-7 final record with only loss to Dallas would still get us In. That record Almost always gets a team in every year. Inevitably a team or two who is winning on turnovers and smoke/Mirrors will collapse down the stretch 3 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiotAct Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 man, the Patriots could really help us out in the next couple weeks officially knocking the Chargers out of playoff contention, and then handing the Steelers a loss. (They won’t, tho) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Success Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 Thanks for posting. Haven't been in this mindset in awhile - but it's not so bad. Makes a bye week exciting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes a bye week exciting. Basically the Bills are starting a double elimination tournament next week. First loss puts us in the loser bracket. Second loss at any point ends the season. It is only going to take an 8-1 run to be super bowl champions. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even with the injuries to Jones and Milano that game… we take care of business against Zach Freakin’ Wilson week 1 and Mac Freakin’’ Jones a couple weeks after Goodell’s Fantastic Experiment, we’re 8-4 and talking about the #1 seed in the AFC instead of running permutations to even get into the dance in the first place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this particular thread, the comment about experiment is not about the outcome of the experiment. The NFL's willingness to do an experiment at all that is likely to affect fair competition is a direct hit to the leagues credibility and integrity. The lack of self-awareness (or alternatively arrogance) by Goodell making these comments is problematic to me. In 1919 MLB brought in an independent commissioner to stamp out gamblings influence. Ironically gamblings influence in the NFL is likely to lead to a calls for an independent commissioner to restore integrity to the NFL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The theory remains true. Lose to the NFC teams and beat the AFC teams then we get to the playoffs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigDingus Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 If we lose to KC, we fall to 3-6 in the conference, so we need to get over that hurdle first. Every other team we're fighting against already has a better record than us, but if we manage to catch up, they also have better conference records than us too. Browns: 5-3 Steelers: 5-3 Colts: 4-3 Texans: 4-3 Broncos: 3-4 The Broncos are the closest to our level, but they have a head-to-head win (another McD choke). If we can upset the Cheifs in Arrowhead for a 3rd straight year, then I'll look further ahead again. A loss to Dallas won't be the end of the world, but a loss to KC will require a lot of teams to fall apart ahead of us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
