It's only possible in the case of a three-way tie with the Steelers. In that scenario, the head-to-head tiebreaker only matters if one team defeated BOTH of the others. Since that's not the case, the other tiebreakers kick in (starting with conference record, common games, etc.). We still win most of the scenarios, but there are some scenarios where the Bills could take it. [Reply]

Depends on which team the Chiefs beat. Chiefs beat the Chargers they get the bye.
