The NFL Playoff Predictor Says

The Bills have a very realistic shot at a wildcard playoff berth if they win out.

In Week 16 games that matter:

I predict the Chargers to defeat San Francisco, Ravens to defeat the Texans, Steelers beat the Chiefs, and Broncos beat the Bengals.

In Week 17 games that matter:

I predict the Ravens beat the Browns, Chiefs beat the Chargers, and Steelers beat the Bengals.

If these predictions hold true, the Bills will get their first taste of the playoffs since 1999.

Not so crazy.

Oh. And the Bills must beat the Patriots in NE.

The offense has to be able to score from the red zone then.

Every big hitter eventually gets out of a slump.

Hopefully CJ Spiller embodies that sentiment and gives the offense a spark when it needs it the most.

Spiller has been a disappointment this season so far, Orton is batting .250 at best, Sammy Watkins can't find the endzone lately, and Robert Woods' pissed off body language reflects it all in one play.

They have the weapons, but have no chemistry as an offensive team.

Maybe Doug Marrone is a mad scientist, and knows how to bottle up talent until it explodes at the right time?

Pinch yourself.

It's mid-December and the Bills are still in the hunt.

Uncharted territory, the likes of which Bills fans haven't seen in 14 years.

If Eli Manning can win 2 Super Bowls rings, anything is possible.

Well the popular belief after that last Super Bowl, at least in NYC sports talk circles, was that Eli was "elite."

I don't know if I've ever seen a more up and down QB than Eli Manning. He was so far down then Odell Beckham Jr. made him look half way decent again last Sunday.

We're not playing the game so it makes no difference if we look ahead...just a heads-up, sparky

Re: The NFL Playoff Predictor Says

Yesterrday WGR was going over league rules & couldn't come up with a scenario where the Bills have a tie-breaker over Baltimore if they both win 10 games. Has anyone figured it out or is, as WGR speculated, the NFL Playoff Predictor wrong.

If we win out I'll start calling him Saint Doug.

Re: The NFL Playoff Predictor Says

I think the Bills have their best chance in years to win in Foxboro. They held Manning and Rodgers in check. If they can rattle Brady I feel he can have an off game. I think the reputation of the Bills defensive line got in the head of Rodgers and affected his play. The same with Manning. Brady has shown if he gets rattled he can have an off game.

While I am not sure if the Bills will make the playoffs or win their last two it's fun to think they at least have a chance. That is much better than recent years.

Re: The NFL Playoff Predictor Says

8-8 is more realistic for us than a playoff spot.

Sub par coach, sub par QB, 6-9 wins, fire and repeat process.

The movie ends the same way.

Except NE defense is better than Denver or GB, add that the Bills offense is really really bad.
other than that it's the bills best chance to win at a place no afc team has won since 06
