Bills go 2-1 (losing @ PIT)
Texans go 2-1 (losing @ TN, but a sweep wouldn't surprise me)

Did you see the Texans beating the Chiefs and the Patriots? Most people didn't. Granted, the Texans are probably the playoff team that the Ravens have the best chat if beating. But they scream one and done playoff team to me, so whoever travels to Baltimore I'm picking to win. [Reply]
I ain't giving up hope on the #1 seed. Brownies and Shittsburg play the Ratbirds tougher than anybody, and Lamar ain't 100%. Things could change very quick. [Reply]

There is NO way we will be #1 seed. We would need some very special help to make #2
We would need to win out and Patriots would have to lose to Buffalo AFTER the Steelers beat the Bills this week.
Not sure what would happen if Bills win out and we do while Patriots lose a game. We would be tied with Buffalo with same record and I think it goes to Conference Record and then common opponents. Patriots would drop to Wild Card behind Buffalo.
Pats and Bills maybe playing full out until last minute of last game. [Reply]

Unless..... the rat birds lose to cleveland next week. [Reply]
The Browns trounced the Ravens in their own building and have given them problems over the last three meetings, winning two and having a chance to win the other before Baker threw an int in the last drive of the game. IF the Browns play to their potential then it will be a close game imo. The Steelers defense also gave Lamar huge problems In their first meeting culminating In him throwing three ints. So all is not lost. Our main hope for a bye though lies In us winning out and the Bills beating the Pats imo. [Reply]

We have the tiebreak on the Bills (I think), so we only need to win out and have them beat NE. [Reply]
I’m pretty excited about the prospects of a Ravens-Chiefs rematch. I think we’d keep it pretty darn close throughout. We always do with Reid.
Then the question becomes, if we can have a one score lead with a minute to go, can Baltimore drop back and throw their way down the field? That’s the scenario you have to put them in to have a chance. They wanna play with a multi score lead all day long and play at their tempo.
Kansas City has the physical pieces to do some dictating of their own, but as always, it will come down to execution. [Reply]
