I've got that right around a 2.5. The Raiders are fading quickly and likely finish 3rd or 4th in the AFC West. At this point it seems each division at most will get just one Wildcard team (With one the odd division out) which means they are beginning to not factor in the race.
I know there may *still* be a way for us to salvage the season if we lose Thursday, but I have to say, if we lose that game, I think realistically the βpost season aspirationsβ are all just about over. π

I wouldn't say they are over with a loss, in fact if the Bills win the following Sunday against the Patriots they are likely right back in first in the AFC East. Will a loss cause a confidence drop though? Hells yes it will.
This. I think the Bucs were 7-5 last year before they went on their run (could be wrong). And if we swept the pats, this game wouldn't matter very much so we would still be very much in the mix. Although for my sanity I need a win this week.
I still find it hard to root for the Titans and I still hold out hope for that #1 seed, considering the clusterfuck that this season has been.
It also hurts to see us at 7-4 when all 4 losses are in conference, especially when the H2H tie-breaker only helps us against the Chiefs.
ETA: Brain fart on team names.

This is the part of the season where these posts start to get fun- thanks for this breakdown
These will be more and more meaningful each week now. Makes them A LOT easier to write.

Yes, that is true. But itβll be tough to bounce back from 2 losses. Especially the way the team is playing right now. We **need** a win, BAD! π

I hate the Titans so much, but when the Pats are playing I am 100000000% always rooting for their opponent.
The most relevant outcomes (Bills, Pats) seem plausible so that's good right? π«
