Here is a look at who Bills fans should be cheering for today.
Important matchups
Tennessee Titans (6-5) at Indianapolis Colts (6-5) 1:00 PM
The best thing for the Bills is to see the Colts continue to lose. Tennessee and Indianapolis are both Wild Card contenders, but the Bills have a head-to-head win over Tennessee.
Verdict: Titan Up
Cleveland Browns (5-6) at Pittsburgh Steelers (6-5) 1:00 PM
At first glance, you may think it would be better for the Steelers to win. Cleveland has a head-to-head win over Buffalo and their remaining schedule, minus a matchup with the Ravens, is pretty favorable. Not only that, but Buffalo has a chance to get a head-to-head win over the Steelers in two weeks.
That said, getting both teams to six losses is best for Buffalo.
Verdict: Hope for the Browns to complete the regular season sweep
Oakland Raiders (6-5) at Kansas City Chiefs (7-4) 4:25 PM
This is an easy one. Cheer for the division leading Chiefs to defeat the Raiders, a team that remains in the Wild Card hunt despite their lopsided loss to the Jets one week ago.
Verdict: Cheer for the Chiefs
New England Patriots (10-1) at Houston Texans (7-4) 8:20 PM
If you think the Bills can still win the AFC East, you should be cheering for the Texans. That said, Houston is in a battle for the AFC South crown against the Colts and Titans. Only one of those three teams can win the division so the other two will be competing for a Wild Card spot. It’s best for the AFC South teams to continue to lose.
Verdict: Pull for the Pats
