    The Bills... Actually have a plausible shot at making the playoffs.
    If they win out, they're likely to be seeded higher than the Dolphins and Broncos.

    Dolphins 9-5 Games left: at Bills, vs Patriots

    Broncos 8-5 Games left: vs Patriots, at Chiefs, vs Raiders


    The Bills have the Browns and Jets still on their schedule, which they'll be favored to win. I can see them pulling an upset on the Dolphins.

    The AFC North is the biggest threat to them in terms of record. Ravens probably have won out if they beat the Steelers, in which case we'll end up with the Ravens winning the division and the Steelers taking the 6th wildcard slot at 10-6. Either of those two can just go 9-7 and get the 6th seed based on their tiebreaker over the Bills.


    I think the Doplhins@Bills game will be close, and that the Dolphins are in deep trouble if they happen to lose. The Ravens hold a tiebreaker over them.

    Scratch that.

    Did the math, it'll be very difficult for the Bills to be seeded higher than the Dolphins. Playoffs are not plausible at all.

        In a nutshell, suggesting that both the Ravens and Broncos miss the playoffs.

          I mean, that both the Dolphins and Broncos miss the playoffs.

          Do we seriously not have an "edit" feature? God damnit.

          Know what, just delete my account. Can someone delete my account and all my posts? Thanks.

              Yeah it's possible. They aren't mathematically eliminated. They have some bad losses and prob won't run the table like they need to. Rex sucks...don't know why crappy coaches get fired for sucking and then hired by another team. Wonder if Jeff Fisher will get another head coaching job

                Results are the initial factor when hiring, but the ability to handle yourself in social settings off-the-field is a prime component in sealing the deal. A few even get hired over more promising individuals. Those types of coaches tend to be highly charismatic.

                Rex Ryan, Jeff Fisher and Andy Reid fit that bill. Andy is an outlier in that he's both talented at coaching and personable.

                  Placed a $1 bet on the Bills winning the SuperBowl. Will net me $400 when they win it.

                  Bills need to win out, Dolphins and Ravens have to lose out while the Broncos must be exactly 9-7.

                  I'm bold. Jealous of my genius?

                        I'm on Miami here at +4.5, spread is way too high. Game should be a pick. I wouldn't touch Miami here if Tannehill was playing, but Moore is smart QB. Let the defense win the game.
