Pittsburgh and Cleveland both play each so someone will get a win. If we don’t win the North and go 9-8 I don’t see us getting a wildcard spot. The Titans already have 10 wins and the Clots play the Jags week 18 think they win that gets them to 10. A Patriots win vs. the Jags gets them 10 wins and the Bills play the Falcons and Jets so if they go 1-1 that’s 10. That would leave one wild card spot and if a team like the Chargers goes 1-1 they would get the last wildcard because they beat us head to head. Basically win the Division or bust the way I see it.

Not really. We just need a 3rd team to end up 9-8 with us and the Chargers in that case. Then we win the tie breaker. There’s still a decent chance the 7 seed comes down to 3 or more 9-8 teams and from what I’ve seen we win the tie breaker every time.

Edit: looks like we would lose 3+ way tie breaker if Pats lose out as well and end up 9-8.
