Buffalo Bills 2017 Why do I put myself through this season thread

[Chip]

I hate football.

 

[JeremyCuse]

What is Preston Brown doing on the hands team. Idiots

 

[Chip]

I like football again.

 

[NineOneSeven]

Lol

 

[Trueblue25]

Good game bills fans. Will take no pleasure eliminating you from contention in week 17.

Amazing that McDermott didn’t absorb anything from Riverboat Ron when he started coaching more aggressive in Carolina and better results followed. Insanely conservative play in the second half.

Nonetheless a win is a win and the Bills are 8-6. At least a punchers chance of a playoff birth...or just setting us up for the annual heartbreak, right?

Still confused though..

Still confused though..

Win out and hope for a little help.

Split and hope for more help.

Lose out and pray for divine intervention.

Assume the Ravens/Chargers win out with their joke schedules. I wouldn't do that if McCown was playing but with Tom Petty it looks very likely. Today vs the 0-13 Browns was the Ravens best chance to lose a football game believe it or not. They'll be a bigger favorite the next two weeks.

Need a super specific scenario of Tennessee losing 1 of these next 2 and Jacksonville. Which is plausible.
I've liked the Rams all year but they are pretty much locked into the 3/4 seed and should be ripe for a letdown so I think I am fine with the 49ers winning this one.

 

[longislandcuse]

So if Titans/Ravens/Bills win out. They are in and we're left out, correct?

Ravens will win out but Titans are in a game right now and their last 2 are brutal.

 

[Toga]

Still confused though..

Need to be informed who to root for in real time.

I still have no idea what to root for with Tenn. Apparently, if we want to get in at 9-7, we want Tenn to lose 2/3 but not all 3 because then if SD wins out, they have the head to head over us.

 

[longislandcuse]

Down goes Tennessee... yay?

 

[JeremyCuse]

Down goes Tennessee... yay?

Needed that for sure

using this. ESPN.com's 2017 NFL Playoff Machine - Simulate Matchups and Scenarios bills can get in with lots of stuff happening.. needed NE to lose to get a chance to win the division

Was at the stadium today... big win!

Crowd chanting “Shady Shady Shady” when he jumped right back in the game 1 play after getting up very slowly.

Also Tre White is a hoot. Dancing all over the field during TV timeouts. Getting hyped up. Great guy, great player, great draft pick.

Saw one table smashing in the parking lot. They asked to borrow our lighter fluid that we had for our charcoal grill. Haha. We refused.

Scoreboard watching seems to be going well for us... I try not to follow it too closely til week 17 when there are more definitive paths to follow.

Democrat & Chronicle link is updated with Titans loss. Main change is if Bills win both, they're in.

Chargers coming east to play a 1 p.m. game on Christmas Eve against the feisty Jets is no guaranteed win for them.

Not quite, at least according to Matthew Fairburn:

 

[HSPORANGE]

Just win baby. Tyrod's managed the game well. Used his legs the right amount and smart. Tall task against NE on the road but you never know.

No, I think you know... Brady owns the bills. Belichek makes one dimensional qbs like Tyrod look useless. Dennison and McD don’t get it that ball control, time of possession, field position and field goals are worthless against the Pats... the Bills need to hire their version of Dino, someone who gets modern football. Tired of dinosaur coaches.

Of course not they're the Chargers. Solid favorite though. With McCown I think that'd be a legit coinflip.
