That's 26.7% over the last 3 years for a 9-8 record making the playoffs.
Think you need 10 to have any degree of comfort, even more so considering we're already 0-3 in the AFC, so we're almost certainly not going to win that tiebreaker. So a 9-3 finish.
Yeah, you have to think 10 + a good conference record for tiebreakers, at minimum.
