Estro Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 (edited) 1) Bills lose @ Dolphins - current line Bills -3 2) Titans lose vs. Jaguars - current line Titans +3.5 3) Ravens lose vs. Steelers - current line Ravens +3.5 So what that last line shows you is the Ravens will be resting starters with the #1 seed locked up. I have little to no faith in the Titans......so I really think the Bills could entirely miss the playoffs if they don't get the W in Miami. Next week could very well be the #2 seed with a win and missing the playoffs entirely with a loss. Crazy!

RyanC883 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 They need to just win and control their own path here. Should be playing for the 1 seed if they did that earlier in the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mannc Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Let’s not forget, Miami is already in the playoffs no matter what happens next week, and they are very banged up.

If you were to let me pick one coach in the NFL that would have their team prepped and ready to play the spoiler against a divisional rival it would be a toss up between Dan Campbell and Mike Vrabel. I dislike Vrabel, but his signature as a coach is getting his team to play hard. I think they could pull an upset. Also, would be a great way for former Buffalo Bills legend DHop to contribute to the teams 2023 success.

zow2 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 The Ravens are not laying down at home to Pittsburgh. Plus Baltimore’s backups and QB have played important snaps this season and last season. The Steelers will have their hands full. Harbaugh knows they can’t lay down like dogs for 2 weeks then flip a switch and turn it back on. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Sack Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 I like our chances down in Miami. If we lose we will have just lost to the team that got dog walked in Baltimore, and scrapped to beat a Dallas team we blew out. We beat a more healthy Miami team 48-20 14 weeks ago. This is a team asking to get blown out. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thrivefourfive Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 I feel like Miami is so soft and weak they’re better off lying to themselves and conceding next week to “rest up” for the playoffs. Imagine if they put it all on the line this week — mentally, emotionally, physically against the Bills and get torched again — their morale wouldn’t be any lower going into the tourney. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Buf wins, I actually think Miami would beat KC in their rematch even at Arrowhead. If the Bills lose and still back into the playoffs, i think we’d play Miami again. I don’t think the Phins wants back to back Allen games. Will be a crazy day next weekend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure the Titans won more than one game with him as starter this year. Their next games were with Levis as starter. I’d place zero hopes on the Titans doing anything.

Haven't even seen if Miami loses, do they end up with 5th or 6th seed? If Bengals still had shot could see Cleveland not playing starters as not much difference for them between 5th and 6th seed, but big difference here for Miami.

Being the 5th seed and playing the AFC South winner… versus 6th seed and going to play the Chiefs at Arrowhead is big enough reason to play starters in my view … if this is actually a possibility for the Browns that they can finish 6th with a loss Edited January 1 by Aussie Joe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see the Ravens backups and assuming a few starters on the lines could do to the Steelers what the Steelers did to us at the end of the 2004 season. Unknowns like Willie Parker and James Harrison beat our starters in Buffalo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, there’s a big difference for Miami, but not like for the Bills, who likely have to win or go home. And as I said, Miami has LOTS of guys hurt who could use a week off.
