First round opponent scenarios

[mr. tegu]

We are locked into the 3 seed so what are the scenarios for the wild card game? Who do we want to play?

It’s actually not that likely we face the Bills. If they win they are the 2 seed. If they lose it looks like best they can do is 7th seed.

Bills can be the 6 if they lose, the Jags lose, and the Steelers lose. It's a pretty unlikely scenario given the Titans almost certainly aren't beat Jacksonville but possible.

Not Dolphins or Bills.

We’re rooting for Miami next week.

I want the ****ing Bills. Nothing would make me happier than sending those shitheads packing personally.

Tits are weird this year. They look like shit a lot but will just stone a team out of nowhere.

No, Bills do in this scenario.

Yeah, I don't trust Jacksonville entirely either.

Looks like we may get the Dolphins or bills and the other the next week

Oh, shit I’m confused. I’d rather have Miami in round one. They’re beat up, and paper tigers!

If Miami beats the Bills, it gets very interesting. It could be any team of Indy, Houston, Pittsburgh, or the Bills themselves (the Bills scenario is if both the Jags and Steelers lose). The Bills could also miss the playoffs if the Steelers and Jags win their games.

Pittsburgh not losing Ravens won’t play anybody good

Miami in R1 is great for us in my eyes. Tua winning on the road in the playoffs is very difficult to see.

They need one of the following to clinch the playoffs:

Bills WIN

or

Pitt @ Balt (Pitt loss)

or

Jags @ TN (Jag loss)

or

Texans @ Colts (Tie)

Jags should win, so if the Bills lose just need Pitt to win and Ravens already clinched so that seems very possible.

Agreed, I think they win that one. Which is why I think our most likely opponent in the event of a Bills loss is the winner of Indy/Houston.

Bills and Chiefs have the same record but Buffalo has the tiebreaker thanks to Toney lining up offsides.
So no, the chiefs have no shot at the 2 seed.

[scho63]

What a moment, why can't we be #2 seed. We have a better conference record than Miami at this point.
Can we overtake the Browns?

By my reckoning Bills will either be 2 seed or eliminated next week. Chiefs locked in at 3 can kick back in LA
