Chiefs or Broncos/Raiders

at Ravens or at Browns

At Lions or at Packers/Vikings

 

Not that much can happen.  And the Texans are straight up better than the Chiefs.  If you can’t see that have your eyes checked.

 

Not sure if you’re aware but no playoff team is promised games plural.  It’s one loss and you’re out for everyone.

 

Thats what you get out of what I said?  I been watching football for over 40 years and you think I don't know that playoffs are one and done?  As a different seed the Bills would be on the road for sure.  As the 2 seed the Bills would get at least one home game guaranteed.  Come on bro this aint rocket science.  Why post that?

 

The Bills aren't resting starters next week.

If this scenario plays out:

 

Ravens beat Steelers, Jags beat Titans, Texans beat Colts.

 

with a win the Bills would be #2 and host the Texans

with a loss the Bills are #6 and travel to KC

 

Does anyone who actually watches football think that the Chiefs are a better team than the Texans?  They’re not.  The Texans, even in Buffalo, are a faaaaaaaaar greater threat.  In addition there would be a great scheduling advantage in the 2024 by finishing 2nd.
 

 The ONLY two reasons for playing starters would be some foolish pride over a division title.  That’s a hard pass.  And:

 

Concern about having to play the Ravens in the Divisional round instead of the AFCCG.  I can see this one but you’d probably have to play them at some point anyway.

 

Conclusion: Sit ‘em, and it’s not close.  The fish might do the same though.  Skylar vs. Kyle?  It’d be fun watching Collinsworth explain, right?  He’d say right 900 times right?

Lay off the crack.

You straight up said we get two home games.  What was that supposed to mean?

No I did not.  I straight up said "Winning the 2 seed means home games"  It means that the first is guaranteed and if advanced the div round is too, versus not getting a home game at all.  Also possible to get a AFCCG at home as well if the Ravens lost.  Do you not know how this works after trying to educate me?

Pretty foolish to call trying for 2 home playoff games for a 7-1 team at home “foolish pride”.

Ok don’t get all ticked at other people because you write poorly.  When an “s “ is attached at the end of a word such as “game” it connotes plural.  Plural means more than one.  If you want to communicate an idea, think it through.  If you fail to do that, no biggie, just don’t lash out at others.  It’s a bad look.

Your tune may change before 8PM Sunday after watching the Chiefs struggle with the Easton Sticks and the Texans curb stomp the Colts.

I know it's only Jan 1st, but so far this is the dumbest post of the year. 

 

I posted in another thread if difference between winning and losing was the 5th vs 6th seed, then yeah, but to give up 2 definite home games and likely playing the second week in Baltimore is crazy.

First of all I wrote plural because plural is possible.  Second, you got smart with me first.

 

 

Yeah dude, roll eyes.  I'm right.  It's not my fault you had a crap take and you wanna deflect.
