Hooray !! Football Gods hearing our prayers!! Our Defense is awesome...Saleh and Ulbricht answering the Critics My head is spinning.. One minute I am thinking is a meh season of 9-8 ..now we can play anyone Really believing now ..playoffs on horizon!!!
Atlanta did us no favors yesterday in knocking off the Chargers. Absolute boneheaded play by ATL after recovering a fumble tied at 17. They get SF next week who is coming off a bye. We can probably end the Pats playoffs hope with a win after the bye. We would be 2+ on them and they still have to play Buffalo 2x, Minnesota, Cinci, + Miami 1 more time.
Gotta find 4 more wins on the schedule. I would love for November 20th to be the first one EDIT - I would imagine this number skyrockets to close to 80% if we beat New England just based off tiebreakers + them being 2 games behind us + our conference + division record (6-3 / 3-1 [if beat the pats])
Only thing I hate is we lost to Ravens and Bengals and lost H2H against them. One of those will win AFC North and the other will be ahead of us if we finish with the same record
Unless it’s 3 way tie it goes to conference not H2H idk where cimini gets his #s vs Zach gets his hut big discrepancy here in playoff %
Why only an 8% chance to win the AFCE. Buffalo is probably still the favored team but right now... 1. Bills 6-2 2. Jets 6-3 3. Fish 6-3 4. Pats 5-4 This a tough division. While the Bills are probably still favored to win you can't tell me the division isn't up for grabs. While the Jets have a bye this week the Bills host the Vikings, and the Dolphins host the Browns. Buffalo and Miami will be favored to win but you never know. That is why they play the games.
Our playoff chances greatly increase with a win in NE. Not only a much better chance of making the playoffs but it keeps open the possibility of winning the division. Regardless of making the playoffs simply winning in NE and effectively ending their season would make this season a success.
Looking at the competition we have: AFC East Bills 6-2 Fins 6-3 Pats 5-4 Other Wild Card Rivals Bengals 5-4 Chargers 5-3 If we make the playoffs two of these teams don't.
