Re: Bottom line. do the pats get in the playoffs?
New England goes to Buffalo, Miami goes to New York. Miami had some issues in the cold in KC today. The Jets, even now, are better than KC. Next week, Miami is a young team with playoffs on the line and the cold/weather to deal with in the game.
The Jets know Buffalo is a tough place to play as well with the crowd noise, so the Pats are not a lock to win. I believe the Jets can win that game, even after the stinker in Seattle. All the wrongs of the past few weeks can be made right with a Jets' win in the hope New England pitches a stinker against a Buffalo team (7-8) looking not to have a losing season. The outcome will not be known before the game, so it will still be a question as to what happens against the Bills.
The Jags on the other hand are 5-10 with no motivation other than the spoiler role against the Cravens. They could have played that role in the Colts game but let the Colts throw 24 points on them in the second half. That game is also in Baltimore. I would not be optimistic about them beating the Ravens.
