Punching Bag Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 https://www.nfl.com/news/stretch-run-fun-jake-browning-demeco-ryans-buccaneers-among-nfl-underdogs-i-m-ro #6 Buffalo Bills 8-6 The Adam Schein Super Bowl is back on, baby! Bills vs. 49ers in Las Vegas? Sign me up! OK, so Buffalo is a bit different than the other underdogs in this rundown. This team, of course, has been a powerhouse for multiple years with Josh Allen at the helm. But this season did not play out as expected over the first 10 weeks. With crippling injuries on defense and inconsistency on offense, the Bills sat at 5-5 just over a month ago, with many coming to view them as an also-ran. Buffalo started to get it together a bit before the Week 13 bye, but this group appears to be surging since the break. The Bills outlasted the Chiefs in Week 14 and then lambasted the Cowboys in Week 15. Suddenly, this looks like the team nobody wants to play. The Bills are currently on the outside of the playoff picture looking in, but I think they can win out. Games against the Chargers and Patriots over the next two weeks should be nothing but speed bumps. The regular-season finale at Miami will present a challenge, no doubt. But with the way interim offensive coordinator Joe Brady has unlocked RB James Cook and this defense has admirably come together of late, I think this is a freight train chugging toward the postseason. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming the Bills (9-6) take care of the lowly Patriots this Sunday in Buffalo, they'd lock up a fourth straight AFC East title by beating the Fins in the regular-season finale. Sounds about right to me. Antonio Pierce deserves to be Raiders' permanent head coach Baker Mayfield deserves to win Comeback Player of the Year 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lions have never been there. Ralph would have a center seat watching. I would rather it be 49ers for I believe good defenses can beat 49ers. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyC81 Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 Why is it the Adam Schein Super Bowl? Chris Berman predicted those 2 teams several years in a row in the 80s and 90s. For 6 straight years, one of them was in, but they never played each other. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregg Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 Can Buffalo win at Baltimore in the playoffs is the question. That is the one matchup I want to avoid. KC is having a down year by their standards. They already have 4 home losses (Lions, Eagles, Bills, Raiders) so playing at Arrowhead isn't that intimidating this year. The Bills would be favored over the other playoff teams. Winning at Baltimore however will not be easy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All teams in the AFC playoffs can win. Don’t think there will be a bad team in that conference side come seasons end.
