From the same "experts" who all said Miami would whip the Bills last week! Don't bet the house on what these brainiacs say!

Of course, anything can happen in one game, but your boys need all four for any real chance at the playoffs. So it's not much of a stretch not to pick them for post-season.

On another note, I'm delighted to see that you love Ray Freakin' Lucas, since we are prepared to let you have him for next year. As he already has plenty of experience throwing to your team, he should fit in very quickly.

Actually 6 out of the 8 guys picked the Bills last week. Meril Hodge and Mark Schlereth were the only guys who screwed up if I recall.

Indeed! Nate Clements is his favorite WR target. Only Williams (RB) and McMichael (TE) have more receptions from him in the two games.

Buffalo plays better as an underdog

"NFC: Eagles, Packers, Bucs, 49ers, Falcons, Saints"

Gee! They all had the exact same thing. Really steppin' out there since it's pretty much all set.

AFC, I'll say:

Pats Div.
Pittsburgh Div.
Indy Div.
S.D. Div.

Oakland WC
Tenn. WC

[RedEyE]

Me:
AFC

Patriots ~ Squeeking in week 17
Pittsburgh ~ No losses in the division
Titans ~ Easier schedule then Indy in the last 4 weeks
Oakland ~ Gannon's O-line is nothing short of amazing

Wild Cards:
*San Diego
*Indy

Having seen every pats game this year, there is no way they make the playoffs with the current state of the run "D" they still have a healty C-Mart, Travis Henry, Ricky,and Eddie George on their plate, i can only see them walking away with 2 of these games tops.

Bills can lose to Green Bay and make it. Miami will lose 2 of their remaining games: Oakland and NE.

Bills must win this weekend and have NE lose to Tenn and NYJ and beat Miami the last week

NYJ: Lose to Denver this week and Green Bay the last weekend and they can beat Chicago and NE

That would make the AFC East

Bills 9-7
Fins 9-7
Pats 8-8
Jets 8-8

Bills win because of tiebreaker: It's called a SWEEP!!


It can happen! :)

N.E. has the easiest schedule remaining;

us tomorrow
@ Tenn.
Jets
Miami

If they essentially beat us and Miami, Miami will have a 2-4 div. record and will need an outright better record. I simply don't see that happening that Miami edges out N.E. They face Oakland for almost a sure loss. It will really come down to week 17, which will amount to another PO game for both teams.

The Jets, while resurgent, still need to win at least 3 and maybe all 4 of their remaining games, and particularly the Pats game.

As much as you may not like that Pats, they are the clear choice to win the AFCE. If we beat them, then that may change things. I'll believe that when I see it however.

Keys to success:

Run, run, run Henry

We have no D, our STs is average, and as far as coaching goes, they've got a Cadillac and we're driving a Civic.

If this "air game" battle between Brady and Bledsoe gets stressed again, then we're going to lose.

Big question: How will Gilbride approach this game?

That doesn't sound like an easy schedule to me - we can beat the pats if we use Henry effectively. Tennesee has shaped up it's act, the Jets could pull it off, and Miami - well who cares as long as we finish with the same record as them or better, and both finish with a better record then the Pats and Jets.
