    Interesting. The Chargers game may be the most important on the schedule. We lose, we have 33% chance. We win, it goes up to 67%.

    Very cool. I played around with this thing a little bit, and one thing is pretty clear -- if they don't win the next two games against OAK and NYJ, then they pretty much have to find a way to split with NE.

    Bills Mafia is simulating breaking tables, shooting beers, setting themselves on fire just in case we get in. Oh wait...

    I get a sinking feeling looking at the rest of our schedule.

    So many tough AFC games to be played...

    I crunched some numbers that included a "historical" metric, and found our playoff chances to be 2%

    I plugged in every game except the last one as a win and our chances were 99%. The remaining 1% on the final week is known as 'The Op Factor'.
