2. Bills @ 1. Bengals
I have the Steelers winning out. Bengals winning out. Chargers winning out. Jags winning out. Ravens losing out. Dolphins losing out. Titans losing out. Pats splitting. Jets splitting. Bills splitting. Chiefs splitting.
In my scenario, the Jets would have to win out to get the #7 seed. @Seattle @Miami. The question is Mike White's status.
The Dolphins only have to win 1 more game to clinch the #7 seed. @Patriots vs.Jets. The question is Tua's status.
Don't kill me for the Steelers thing. They're at the Ravens this week and Lamar's status will be huge for the outcome of that game and they finish at home against the Browns. Things are actually set up pretty well for them to make the playoffs (spit!!), where they will get smashed like last year (smile).
Going back to the WC round of the playoffs, the Jags could beat the Chargers at home but that would not change what came after other than it would be the Jags travelling to Cincinnati.
Just for shitz and giggz, here is how it turned out in the NFC.
1. Eagles
2. Minny
3. 49ers
4. Panthers
5. Cowboys
6. Giants
7. Seahawks
Definitely possible and would love it honestly. I like our chances of beating the Bills if we beat them in a tight one Monday night.
Burrow is always better the 2nd time he faces a Defense in the same season. I do love this scenario maybe even more than Wedge's.
