BillsFan619 Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 (edited) Bills win out (obvious) Dolphins lose to us and one other team (realistic) Ravens win one more game (realistic) The Chiefs, Browns, Jags, Colts and Texans lose one game each. The least likely of all of these outcomes is the Chiefs losing a game (not impossible though). Go Bills!

Hey, I'm a longtime Bills fan; I can't help but think that way. It's really hard. 5 teams that would be competing for the 3 WC. The colts and Texans play week 18, so that would eliminate one of them. The browns play the Texans and Bengals still, so that is 2 more losses somewhere. I'd haven't looked at conference records after yesterday's games, but to get 4 teams at 11-6 you need the Texans to lose to the colts and browns, and the browns to lose to the Bengals. Also, the Bengals would have to win against the chiefs. I think that's the only path to missing at 11-6. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sammy Watkins' Rib Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 That actually all seems very likely. Bills benefit here because Bengals or Browns could finish ahead of the Bills but due to Ravens winning the division they would finish as the 5 seed and Bills would slot as the 2 seed. 1 hour ago, peterpan said: im beginning to think our best way in is winning the division over Miami That is the fraud team right there.

DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 (edited) miami will be the determining factor. they can beat dallas, especially if they get hill back. however, I don't see them beating the ravens. they have 7 conference wins to the bills 4 which means buffalo can not lose another afc match up. they do, they're cooked. I am not looking at any other team aside from miami and you have to hope they lose to the ravens and the bills come out of hard rock stadium with a win and the division title. only scenario that can realistically work. looking for other teams to lose, yeah you want them to but it should of never of come down to that. instead of miami sitting at #2, they should at least be sitting in that spot. but, I have to agree with the majority believing/knowing it was dorsey holding them back and even though he was OC when the bills dominated miami, smoked the raiders and washington it went downhill from the jags game until his release. although I hold the jags game against goodell and his moronic idea that it would be a competitive game with one team only two days acclimated while the other had been there 2 weeks. still the decision to make the change, although late, was the right one and brady has really done something with the offense. cleveland matches the bills 4 conference wins as does denver with indy at 6, oilers and stillers at 5 and cincy at 3. making the next 3 games critical. it's going to come down to beating the chargers and pats and getting to 6 conference wins before the showdown in miami. what a finish to the season that's going to be!

TrentEdwardsCheckDownOn4th Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 (edited) I think getting the 2 seed is more important than most think. Of course we just want to make the playoffs at this point, but ideally we dont get the #3 seed. I'd actually prefer the #4 seed over the #3 seed. The Chiefs probably win out and finish second. That means whoever finishes 3rd could play at arrowhead in the divisional round. That place and the bad playoff vibes around it, feel like the only thing that can stop the bills from making the superbowl. I'd much rather be the 4th seed and play at Baltimore in the divisional round.

They played lights out yesterday against Dallas that for whatever reason never adapted on O or D to make the Bills change things up as well. My point is, the Bills still have work to do and a let down wouldn’t be shocking after this 3 game stretch. PS I don’t want them to win again this year..
