So who do we want to lose? Steelers or Colts?!

 

Mathematically it’s the same.

 

However the Steelers have a more difficult remaining schedule, so more likely to lose again.


Go Steelers.

Unless it brings you some level of enjoyment, I wouldn't live and die on the games from other playoff contenders.

 

Keep it simple.  The Bills win out, or they don't deserve to make the playoffs.  I know it's a difficult task to win out, but it was the Bills who put themselves in that position by blowing so many games they should've won this season.  Now it's time to do something special to dig ourselves out of the hole, or well, it's onto the draft and free agency.

 

A lot of Bills games are already torture to watch.  I don't see the point in adding to the torture by living and dying on a Bengals-Vikings game on a Saturday.

I would actually say it might be better for the Steelers to lose today if one of these teams do. The Steelers getting a 7th loss and playing the Bengals next week would make them easier to root for to beat the Bengals. I wouldn't want them to play each other both at 8-6. I'd rather have the Steelers at 7-7 give the Bengals a 7th loss and if we beat the Cowboys and Chargers the next 2 weeks, it would put us ahead of both instead of one 

 

But all of this is based on the Bills beating the Cowboys. That is hardly a given.

 

I'd argue a Steelers win is better to cover off the possibility of the Bills losing tomorrow. Then, in all liklihood, one of the Steelers or Bengals will drop to 9-6 next week whilst the Bills should go to 8-7 or 9-6 themselves, depending on tomorrow's result.

 

And, as I say it, the Colts take the lead.

None of this is life or death but that shouldn’t stop Bills fans from rooting for other games to work in their favor.

Why was Warner blaming Minchew for the incomplete pass to Pierce? 

Hes a freaking hater. And one of his old team mates from nyg - a wr. Said “hes all about his stats and not being to blame “ 

said he wouldn’t throw Hail Mary a bunch or jump balls bc he didn’t want InT or incompletions

This is so true. And anyone who says they disagree with you, finds enjoyment in the torture. Which makes me wonder why they’re disagreeing with you 😆

Right on. Guess he got in the booth because he’s a hall of fame player, but the words coming out of his mouth are because he needs hate on others to make himself feel better. 
 

Just thought the throw was masterful and it’s on Pierce to get his head and hands up to catch an on-the-money Touchdown pass.

These teams are both trash........

 

And they have the tiebreakers over us because of our own stupidity and both could get in the Playoffs while we sit at home.  Makes me sick thinking about it.

 

I swear, we'll be the best team in the AFC Playoffs or miss the Playoffs completely.  So frustrating.

Obviously it wasn't the head coaches fault for the way JA played against the Jets, the pats, jags and Denver. He wasn't the one throwing interceptions nor was either one on the field trying to stop the other team. I'm not trying to make excuses for him he has made some bad calls but he isn't on the field making plays. I love Josh Allen, likely the best quarterback the bills have ever seen but it's on his shoulders for those losses earlier in the season as well as the defense.

 

Do you honestly think Josh would've played exactly the same against those same teams if Brady had been this seasons OC?  It was 100% Sean's decision to ignore players like Diggs (and their complaints) and stick with Dorsey.

I understand it's based on if we beat both the Cowboys and Chargers. It's still the better outcome. Giving the Steelers a 7th loss and having them give the Bengals a 7th loss is better than having both play each other at 8-6 next week and having one team go to 9-6 and the other at 8-7. If the Steelers go in 7-7 and beat the Bengals to have both teams go 8-7 is much better if we get both the Cowboys and Chargers to go to 9-6
