Of course we'd just rather go 16-0 followed by the 3 in the playoffs and steamroll everyone but we know were gonna lose some. Is this an instance where a loss here isn't as crucial?
I believe conference record is a higher tie breaker than common opponents, so in that case I'd think we want our losses coming against the NFCW teams.
If I'm wrong about that, then we need to sweep the NFCW and Buffalo could be an okay loss.
As you said, we obviously want to win them all, but if we're realistic here, a winning record in the division would be amazing and then hopefully we win whichever games mean more to our tiebreakers whether that is the nondivision AFC or the NFCW games.
