What's YOUR Honest Playoff Bracket?

[Richard Noggin]

Using dumb ESPN's playoff simulator, I ran through the last five weeks of the season without thinking too much, just picking each game as objectively as I could. Here was the result (only took me a couple minutes):

 

 

I hate it a lot, tbh. So many bad matchups for the Bills. 

 

In my simulation, for what it's worth, the Bills lose the next two and then win the last three. I really hope that isn't what actually transpires, but going 3-2 the rest of the way IS reasonable. Could also see arguments for going 4-1, which would have interesting ramifications. for the rest of the AFC. 

 

What bracket do YOU come up with after picking the last five weeks of the season? (I tried not to think about any future implications when picking. And I tried to apply an ugly level of objectivity.)

Geez!! Interesting!

 

I like the bracket you came up with. KC could beat New England, and we'd get the home game, and Los Angeles probably will beat Jax, another home game if we played them.

 

I don't mind this at all. Though it'd be a ton better if we won the division, of course.

 

I wouldn't like playing Cincy away, but if we lose the division it's not that bad out of all the other possible results.

 

And - admitting that it's still way early to try this exercise - I don't think I'd have many differences.

Think that’s a reasonable outcome and not a bad one where we slot. 
 

Do flip Denver and New England for me personally. The Broncos have played some hit or miss football and have been escaping losses. Their remaining schedule isn’t as easy as the Pats.
