  • Yes...but if we lose to the Steelers and the Ravens win out, we could likely be completely out of the playoffs. That's just bizarre with potentially sub 500 teams getting into the playoffs in the NFC.

  • I don't think so. If we win against Jets then lose to the Steelers its like a 99% chance we are in. We were theorizing the computers must be taking into account a possible tie with the one of the other teams.. But if we take care of business with the Jets game, I think we are a shoe in.. But winning against the Stoolers in the last game of the year, AFC north Champs or not, it would send a message.

    But God isn't it fun to be here!  Who would have thunk it ..

  • Have to beat the current champs to become the champs - this isn't a thing until after next Sunday.

    Well...remember,  the Ravens are the reigning Champions of the AFCN,  and we did not beat them.   But if we can win the division without beating them, who gives a shit? 

  • look if we win and the colts lose we are in same if the dolphins lose  and why would you root for the ravens ? that makes no sense

    Great reason to rethink playoff selection. 

  • We could theoretically have to beat the steelers twice in a row. If we win out we could be facing the steelers in the first round of the playoffs.

    Well, I figure if we win out we would likely have the #3 seed. But I think that would happen only if  the Steelers also lose both of their remaining games.     The playoffs go like this:

    #2  vs.   #7

    #3 vs. #6

    #4 vs. #5  

    Right here, right now those matchups would be:    Buffalo vs. Miami;   Pittsburgh vs. Indianapolis;  Tennessee vs. Cleveland.

    But I can't begin to tell you all the permutations that are out there to make a Browns/Steelers rematch happen.   

    Let's start with this though:   have Raiders beat Dolphins on Saturday;   Browns beat Jets. Sunday,  and hope Indy takes out Pitt.

    I’d welcome that matchup.  If we can Try to establish the run against the Steelers we will be fine.  When we get all one dimensional on them it never ends well.  I feel like our young team would benefit from a third game with the Steelers and as we all mentioned prior to the first matchup- this is not Ben of 5/10 years ago.  This is stationary Ben that doesn’t challenge downfield like he used to-  and I like our chances with our defense playing in a box instead of rectangle. 
     

    I don’t want anything to do with a running QB again- until we get backers and safeties let’s stay away from Lamar and Josh Allen
