Today is another example of why our season isn’t over (Updated - 1/7 - WE’RE IN as the 2 seed!)

If the Bills can find a way to win against the Chiefs on the road I would agree the season is far from over. But that sad reality is this team could win out and still miss the postseason because of tiebreakers.

 

It's unreal how many teams in the AFC are in the playoff picture right now including both the Colts and Texans which are said teams that would beat the Bills in every important tiebreaker right now if they were even but both are a game better currently.

There is no way we win out and miss. 3/4 of Houston, Indy, Cleveland and Pittsburgh would have to go 4-1. Cleveland and Pittsburgh are a lot more likely to go 1-4 than 4-1.

The Bills are getting worse each year and the other teams in the AFC are passing them by with backup QB's and frankly bad QB play.  No playoffs likely this year and probably next year too.  

 

It was a fun 3 year run, but back to being awful.

That is not exactly true though.

 

If the bills go 4-1 with the loss being Dallas they would finish 10-7, 4-2 in the afc east, 7-5 in the conference and 3-2 non conference.

 

For instance, the Broncos are 3-5 in the Conference with two games left vs the chargers and a week 18 game at the Raiders....week 18 games are as unpredictable as week 1 games.  The broncos could split with the chargers making them 7-7, lose at detroit, 7-8, beat the pats 8-8....they could be 8-8 with a 5-6 conference record heading into week 18 at the raiders.

 

the steelers and browns are both 5-3 in the conference.  Pittsburgh has the colts bengals and ravens.  They could lose all 3 plus they play at seattle.  

The browns  have the jags, texans.....and a week 18 game at the bengals.   They could lose all 3.  

 

What the bills need is to win all their afc games and hope the bengals can screw up cleveland and pittsburgh's seasons.

Which is the 35% probability

It would be amazing if we can go undefeated rest of season. Its possible. 
-Chiefs

-Cowboys

-Chargers

-Pats

-Dolphins

 

And I believe the Fins will lose to Ravens and possibly the Boys...  If that happens then the Mia game is for the division

The Buffalo Bills season is over and the Bills have no one to blame but themselves. It’s time for the Bills players to look in the mirror enough with the forever excuses. The bottom line is the Bills weren’t good enough. Some Bills fans have to wake up the Miami Dolphins are winning the AFC East Division and that makes this Bills fan sick. Have some pride Bills fans the Dolphins are winning the AFC East enough with the excuses if any Bills fan is over 50 years I am 55 years old soon to be 56 years old in December like me it makes one sick it’s worse than the New England Patriots. The Dolphins want to make me sick they are winning the AFC East. With that out of the way carry on with the never ending excuses in my opinion. Go Bills! Let’s Go Buffalo

It's beyond me why anyone would give up on the season given the talent we have. I'm not overly optimistic - I see the warts we all see - just seems like some folks are more interested in the hope of the offseason (when no games/championships can be won) over what's possible and right in front of us.

What is right in front of us is a big game against KC.  

 

If we win then we can get excited.  We have some talent.  But our defense is old and beat up.  It’s not dominant.   And our head coach is a choker who does not coach to win. 
 

But we do have a great QB.  Time to ride him into the playoffs.

Miami is 9-3. The Bills are 6-6. The Dolphins are going to have to lose more than one game for the Bills to win the division. It's either WC or go home for the Bills this year.

right.  not sure how I missed that small fact.   unbridled optimism I guess.  trust it!

If the Bills can somehow run the table and the Dolphins lose two (Ravens, Cowboys most likely) then the season finale would be for the division. But the chances of this happening are slim and none.

Chiefs game is everything.  I'll feel pretty good if we can get that W.

 

If we win, it’s kind of wild that we’ll only be one game behind the Chiefs record-wise.

 

It definitely is a very winnable game and we could be catching them at the right time.

 

We should have some confidence as well, since we’ve beaten them twice the past couple years in Arrowhead.

 

Go Bills!

It’s why those quitting the season after the Broncos game and Eagles game are losers. 
 

“Wahhhhhh how could we ever win a game with Sean McDermott. “
 

The guy brought you the winning culture that you suddenly take for granted. The one that didn’t exist in your mind’s eye 5 years ago.  Let’s see the winning culture you’ve developed in your life to be throwing stones at him. 
 

*crickets*

Winning culture brought to you by Josh Allen.  I'm convinced it's th qb and not the coach.  We are severely handicapped against better teams due to coaching

Who is taking the Bills seriously right now? The losses to the Jets, Pats, and Broncos already made us into jokes.

 

The individual talent is there, but with this coaching our whole is less than the sum of our parts.

It's like the TV pundits say, the Bills are irrelevant right now

Don't we always look out of sorts coming off a bye week these past years?

We often have under McDermott, despite the 7-0 record.

 

In 2020 we had 3 4th quarter turnovers at home against a bad Chargers team and barely won. In 2021 at home against Tua and the 1-6 Dolphins, we had 3 points late in the 3rd (the game preceding the 9-6 Jags game). In 2022 (again at home) we looked out of sorts against Green Bay on SNF in the game that seemed to send us on our way to late season mediocrity.

 

The results have not been as good as the record suggests, at least not recently.
