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. 

 

Except due to injuries over the past two seasons most everyone on the Ravens has played and contributed, even Huntley the backup QB.  The Steelers will not roll Baltimore. Pittsburgh could win, but either way i think it will be very close to the end.

Those teams hate each other. Ravens would love to eliminate the Steelers.

I was going to mention that in my post. The 3 leg parlay (moneyline)

Dolphins, Steelers, Jaguars pays +462

 

I know some sites have the Bills implied playoff odds at 95% or so l, but according to Vegas lines we now know that number is too high.

 

True odds are about 85%.....long way of saying if the Bills don't win, hold on tight

Just bet $22 to win $122. Figure I at least get 100 bucks to ease my pain. Also bet $6 on a 2 team parlay of titans and ravens both at +3.5 to make $22. Hedging my bet a little lol

That’s a good idea. The emotional hedge bet. I’m gonna do that. I’m happy to pay out $50 for a Bills playoff berth.  If not, ease my pain with some $$ in return.  I’ve done that a few times this season on specific Bills games but not 3 gamers.

Don’t sleep on the Titans. They’ve had  wins against some tough teams this year. Don’t count Trevor Lawrence out for the choke 

Titans had big wins with Levis not Tannehill. He is a statue back there for the Jags D to feast on. Not counting on any help from Titans.

Let’s not forget, Miami is already in the playoffs no matter what happens next week, and they are very banged up.  Not saying they won’t be trying to win, but the game probably won’t mean as much to them.

 

That is our one leg up here. Both teams banged up. Dolphins trying to get a high seed.

 

But Buffalo's entire season is on the line.

 

This game means so much more to us. Please please please good Josh show up 🙏

100% agree but I also think Tannehill will play his butt off to get another backup role next season when he’s a free agent. Plus vrabel doesn’t know how to throw a game. I think ravens backups have a better shot to take down Rudolph and his inept sleigh but I won’t discount Vrabel and Tannehill pulling off the upset over a hobbled Lawrence

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!

They probably don’t deserve a playoff spot anyway.  Of they get in it will probably be one and done

I thought the game was at Jax.  Since it’s at Tennessee they definitely have a chance.  The titans can be a problem

Agreed, mostly because Pittsburgh doesn't roll anyone. The Ravens 2nd and 3rd string defense is probably as good as Seattle's 1st string

I don't think Titan can muster a win against Jax and I honestly think the Ravens will lay down to Pittsburgh in the hopes of keeping Buffalo out.

 

It'll be up to the Bills to win outright,  head to head. 

not sure this would be the case. pittsburgh plays baltimore extremely tough. divisional opponents are always dangerous.

I remember a few years back when all the Bills had to do was beat a Steelers team, that was playing all back ups, to advance to the playoffs. We got our butts handed to us. You just never know how it’s going to turn out. I have the utmost confidence in Josh and our defense to get the job done. Go Bills!!🏈

I agree. I don't see Pitt or the Jags losing. 

 

I think Buffalo has to beat Miami to make the playoffs. No easy task if Waddle and Mosert can play. Two big time weapons.

And if they lose they go to KC. I think there is an argument at the moment that KC are the team you want to play as mad as that sounds.

The Ravens are 1 win and 4 losses against the Steelers in the last 5 games, including a loss this season  The Ravens hate the Steelers. They may rest their starters,  they may lose the game, but it won't be because the Ravens want to keep the Bills out.

They get the 2 seed if they win and the 6 seed if they don't.  That's enough motivation.

Exactly.. the Ravens aren’t about to lay down for a hated division rival. They also aren’t worried about playing the Bills - or anyone for that matter- in the playoffs.

I don’t usually let stuff like this bother me, but the thought of this happening really messed with me today.....I guess the playoffs started for the Bills a month ago, and this week is no different.

 

Win and get in!!!!!

 

Go Bills!!!!
