Regarding GB/Min tiebreaker, the winner of the GB/MIN game Friday wins the division regardless of week 17 outcomes. The third tiebreaker for division race is record vs. common opponents rather than conference record. If GB wins they win head-to-head 2-0. If MIN wins, head-to-head split 1-1, division tied 4-2(assuming GB wins at CHI next week). Common opponents MIN leads by two games right now 7-4 to 5-6. GB cannot win this tiebreaker regardless of week 17.

The Bills have to win out to have a chance. There is no way they beat the Steelers if the Steelers need to win that game for home field advantage. With New England losing, the Steelers can wrap up home field with a win this week, thereby enabling them to rest many of their players against Buffalo, giving Buffalo a chance to win the game.

Good to know. I thought it went to Conference record, in which case Green Bay would have a 1 game advantage. Well, I have Minnesota winning a close game on Friday, so I guess I would have to flop-flop those two teams which would also change the playoff matchups.

Don't sleep on the Bills. Right now, they are probably playing the best ball in the league. A team with that good a defense always has a chance, even on the road. It's not like playing in the cold bothers them. I would rather the Colts play any of the other wild card contenders than Buffalo.

Ugh...Eagles haters everywhere - my prediction will be my Eagles beating up on your beloved STILLERS in the Super Bowl [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] See you there!

They do not have a chance in hell in the playoffs against any team that can stop the run. Drew Bledsoe is terrible.

My prediction is the Eagles never get anywhere the SuperBowl without buying their own tickets.

No hatin'. I really couldn't care less about the Eagles one way or the other. (Well o.k. except for that idiot T.O. Too bad he didn't break his neck. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img])
