    thanks for that flashback and yet another reason why the rest of the NFL laughs at us. Isn't is an amazingly long list. Good laugh

    After yesterday's games, how much more unlikely did this just become? (Yes I am delusional)

    It was never likely, but still possible. That will probably change in the next week or two.

    We'd be eliminated today with a loss, or whenever our 9th loss comes. That's because there have to be at least 2 8 win teams by virtue of 7 win teams playing each other. I also think the Chiefs conference record is too good for us to tiebreak. So pretty much even 8-8 at this point wouldn't be enough.

    But as of right now, we aren't mathematically eliminated yet? I know the Chargers have the tiebreaker against us, so if they win one more game than we are done.

    I thought that too but that's actually not how wild card tiebreakers work. If the Chargers and us were the only ones tied at 8-8 then they'd tiebreak us, but when there are 3 or more teams tied for the same spot (which would need to be the case, there would have to be like 4 8-8 teams in order for us to make it) head to head tiebreakers are ignored in favor of conference records

    That's not correct, I worked out a scenario this morning on that playoff machine where the Jets can still get in, but it's such a long shot that it's not even worth discussing, the Jets aren't mathematically eliminated yet, but they also aren't going to win out.

    We would need 3 of the Steelers, Chiefs, Chargers and Browns to all finish 8-8 or worse, despite them all being 7-4 right now. Plus, they match up with each other a couple times, which factors in some guaranteed wins for one of them. There are only like 2 or 3 combinations that can get us in. I would go nuts if it happened.

    Assuming the Jets finish 8-8, what % odds would you put on everything falling in place and jets taking the 6th seed?

    I'm playing with ESPN's playoff machine right now. We need a ridiculous amount of help, as in multiple teams losing 4 or their last 5. Although I will say, the teams we need to start losing (Chargers, Chiefs, Browns, Steelers) all have very hard schedules. I could feasibly see them racking up losses. That being said, even at 8-8 it would still be pretty unlikely.

    This is comical... Knowing our luck, the teams we need to lose would lose and we would start winning and it would all come down to a Week 17 Ravens Vs Browns matchup to get us in... And lets say we need the Browns to win for us to get in, and these motherfuckas tie...
