ESPN NFL playoff machine up and running

[cgang]

14% chance of getting first seed.  14% chance of missing the playoffs entirely (according to Grok anyway).   I’m rooting for 86% chance of making the playoffs to at least have something to cheer for on wildcard weekend.

 

what a frustrating season. lol

You can't compare 1976 to today because the rules have changed (multiple times). The most recent change was 2019 which gave 1 team per conference the bye. A week off after a 17 game season and 2 home games to get the the Superbowl is a pretty big deal now.

 

Yes. And based on that chart, after 2019, only one team as the one seed got to the SB. It was the Chiefs, and they won. 

 

And the Bills in the 90s are skewing those numbers a bit.

If your predictions come true, then the Bills go to Indianapolis on WC weekend. JT against the Bills fantastic run defense. What could go wrong here

One seed is not all it's cracked up to be. Since 1976 (almost 50 years), fifteen AFC one seeds have gone to SB. Six won. 

 

Who was the # seed in 1992 if not the Bills?
