    2017 Buffalo Bills running playoff chances discussion Thread

    I thought I’d give us all somewhere to dream about the elusive post-season:

    They have to win 4 of the next 6. Bengals, Bucs, Raiders (maybe with EJ), Jets, Saints and Chargers. I think to have any chance they have to be at least 7-3 before heading into tough games vs Chiefs and Patriots.

      Yep, that seems like a reasonable benchmark. 7-3 with games against the Colts and Dolphins (2x) to hopefully get to 10 wins, then 3 other games with possible upsets. Win 1 of those 3 and hit 11-5, and we deserve the playoffs.

        I like Bills chances at this point... I'll like them 100% more if they win tomorrow and go into bye 4-1.

            So back on topic.. they should just delete the posts not on topic in this thread.


            With 12 games remaining, I think barring a crazy happening 11 wins in guranteed to get us in, maybe 10 considering we're already 2-0 in the AFC.



            Oct 8 @CIN WINNABLE , away game hot start for us.
            Bye
            Oct 22 TB SHOULD WIN, they look bad, coming off a bye at home

            Oct 29 OAK. WINNABLE , Oakland traveling across country
            Nov 2 @NYJ SHOILD WIN
            Nov 12 NO WINNABLE, home game, very bad def, brees plays bad outside
            Nov 19 @LAC WINNABLE, bad team but cross country travel you never know with those.
            Nov 26 @KC PROBALLY LOSE , in KC they look good well.
            Dec 3 NE WINNABLE, first one in years it wouldn't be a shocker to beat em.
            Dec 10 IND SHOULD WIN, even with luck they have too many holes and home game for us.
            Dec 17 MIA SHOULD WIN , they look like a bottom feeder this year.
            Dec 24 @NE see previous.
            Dec 31 @MIA see previous.

            So that leaves 5 games
            We should win, say we go 4-1 in those.

            6 games are winnable IMO, say we go 3-3 in those

            And we lose to chiefs. 0-1

            That brings us to 10-6.

            We played the hardest part of our schedule already and went 3-1. Many people say the next quarter is telling, and yes obv every quarter is telling. Including the 1st

              Let's get into our bye at 4-1.

                  If those are my choices, I'm spending a hell of a lot more than $12...

                    The Bills will win their next two so I am still confident.

                        Now they have to win 4 of 5. You have to figure a loss to KC and 2 vs NE (I don't care how their defense looks, they still have Brady) That gets you to 10-6 and that's a must for the playoffs. Blew an opportunity today.

                            I really really REALLY want the Bills to get to the playoffs this year... but I'm having a difficult time believing that the stars will align this year. I didn't get to see the Cincy game, so I don't know what went "wrong", but after beating Denver and Atlanta.... Cincy was a must win.

                            BUT, I am seeing a glimmer of hope for the future. :)
