That would really suck for NE, as they would go from "win and in" to needing both Miami and Pittsburgh to lose.

The strength points, or any other tiebreakers, would not come into play between Buff and Cincy because there is no way they can tie unless Cincy beats Balt and Buff loses to NE... If Buff plays neither of their remaining two games, then KC is the #1 seed with a over LV, and Buff is #2; if KC loses to LV, Buff is 1 and KC is 2. Cincy stays at 3 either way.
Let me clarify. When I said take the week off, I meant not play to win. Playing for a 1 seed is a lot different than playing for a 2 seed. Especially if they can still get the 2 seed even if they lose.

However, just recently they have been talking about postponing their game against the Patriots. I don't think that will happen. But I can't see the Bills being prepared for this game.
