I wanted to elaborate on this before the games kick off tonight--not that the Titans/Jaguars has any bearing on our playoff chances!
Before the Bills start Sunday at 4:25 there are 3 games to be played that will impact the Bills playoff odds:
San Diego at San Francisco (8pm Saturday)/Baltimore at Houston(1pm)/Kansas City at Pittsburgh (1pm)
The results of those three games can only play out 8 ways--excluding ties. Those results range from extremely advantageous to the Bills, to eliminating us from the playoff race before we even kick off. Following those 3 games (and ours) there will be 4 games remaining that impact our playoff chances--which will leave 16 possible scenarios for outcomes.
So, in looking at the games that will be played
BEFORE the Bills kick off, here are the possible outcomes, ranked in order of preference for Bills fans, and preceded by the percentage of remaining scenarios that will remain available (on Monday morning, before the Broncos/Bengals game) that results in a wild card birth for the Bills!
I hope
someone (anyone)finds this mildly interesting!!
