does the chargers win over denver help us?

Patriots are not going to win the Super Bowl. I don't give a **** if they have the #1 seed. I'd rather them have it than Denver, because I think we can actually give the Pats a game. I don't think we can compete with Denver.

Yes your right, how could Miami compete with big Denver seeing how they couldn't even beat the chargers oh oh hold on let me think um oh yes MIAMI BEAT!! OK bye bye now
 
only thing that worries me in the 3 way tie scenario is the chargers game is slated for 4:15pm start
meaning both miami and baltimore games will be concluded ,so if they win to get us in why would they even give their all?

Haven't they been flexing games the past few years to avoid this scenario? If all 3 teams go into week 17 at 8-7 I think they'll keep the Baltimore game early and flex us to a 4:15 start, that way Miami and San Diego can both still be in the mix no matter what happens in the Baltimore game. Anyway, I think they'll still play hard with Rivers at QB and a rookie head coach whether they're still in it or not.
 
now the Chargers beat the Broncos and the New england game is going to be harder.I think everyone needs to just calm down if Miami means business they'll win the game regardless of what it means for New England.
 
IF we end up in a 3 way tie with Balt and SD, and IF we end up tied with Balt on Conference record, SD does not have 4 common games. So, we would move to strength of victory. After the Denver win, SD is at .538. Miami is at .457. Balt is at .401.

Strength of victory is the average winning percentage of all the teams you have beaten, and a Pats win would give us a nice boost. Many outcomes are still possible, and we won't know much of anything until the next two games are played.
 
I understand what people are saying, but I think the win hurts the Fins because of the 8-8 scenario with three teams tied. No way SD does not go 9-7. Plus, I think NE will be ready to go this Sunday in a big way. I hate the Pats.
 
never saw that one coming...denver better shore up that run d...

anyways if we can't win 2 out of 3 which would put us in over the chargers we don't deserve to get in anyways is the way i see it...

Exactly. We need to get to 10-6 or hope for a 3 way tie at 9-7. Getting in at 8-8 is a pipedream.
 
NOOOOO IF we end up with the same record as the Ravens we lose out because the Ravens beat us head to head , we need to win one game more than the Ravens for us to get in..

Not in a three way tie, where the teams are not in the same division
 
if its true that we win a 3 way tiebreaker between the ravens and chargers and us, then chargers winning is huge.

think about it.

if we lost this week and even if the ravens lost, it would still be bad for us because we will not have taken advantage of anything and would still be trailing them, this assuming the chargers had lost last night.

now, if we lose this week, as long as the ravens also lose, if we beat the bills and jets and san diego beats the raiders and chiefs we r in.

obviously we still need to win this week, because if baltimore were to win, we r ****ed still.

gives us more options by the chargers winning.
 
so if us sd and balt all finish at 9-7 we win the tie break???

I believe it goes to conference record and we have the best out of the 3. We are 6-3 and Balt is 6-4. But if we lose another game and Balt loses to Detroit than we have the same conference loses. Sd is 4-6 so they are out.

so if we end up tied at 9-7 our loss being pats balt loss being detroit and sd also 9-7 balt gets in??? sounds like we need em to lose a conference game more than anything
 
Not true…We need Baltimore to lose to either the Pats or Bengals if we are in a 3 way tie
