If we don't get a bye this would be best. Miami probably won't beat ne but they have beaten them at home before.

They are a totally different team in Pittsburgh.

As I said going to Houston rather than to Pittsburgh could be enough motivation for Miami. Too bad it won't matter because playing @SD is easier than playing NE.

I know we have less than fun memories of bye week seasons, but to root against the bye is just nuts.

An extra week off gives us:
1) An extra week for guys to rest and heal.
2) An extra week of our next opponent to play and get banged up.
3) One less chance to lose.

3. Steelers (100%)
4. Texans (100%)
5. Chiefs (49%) or Dolphins (23%) or Raiders (28%)
6. Dolphins (77%) or Chiefs (23%)

I'm wondering where they figure the percentages.

The Raiders have a 53% chance of beating the Broncos in Denver with their backup QB? The Chiefs have a 28% chance of beating San Diego? I understand the Raiders need only one thing to happen & the Chiefs need two things to happen but I don't think the Raiders have a better than 50/50 chance at Denver with McGloin.

Maybe its a 50% chance they beat Denver, and they add the 3% chance the Chiefs loose to the Chargers making it 53% chance they win the division. :shrug:

4) Reid with a bye week

It's a stats model. Injuries aren't a part of the equation.

They just look at every possible outcome for every game. They aren't figuring in which teams are better, injuries, or anything like that. Just all 32 teams and every possible combination of wins and losses. They run all of the hundreds of different outcomes, then take what percentage of those gets the outcome you are looking at (bye, 5th seed, etc.).

In other words, they see that the Chiefs need a win and the Raiders a loss for KC to win the division. It doesn't look at how likely the Chiefs are to beat SD or the Raiders to beat the Broncos, just that they need to win and the Raiders need to lose to get that outcome.

Any scenario with a bye is orders of magnitude better than having to win 3 games on the road to get to the SB. Anyone who thinks otherwise is crazy.

Doesn't Brady struggle in Miami?
