Just a theory. Let's look at our current record:
4 wins on the road
3 losses at home (to teams that have a combined record of 16-5..assuming Pitt loses to N.O.)
Let's take this to it's "logical" conclusion.
1. We should win all the rest of our road games!! That means beating Baltimore (5-2) and Oakland (4-4), and spliting with NY and NE.
2. We SHOULD at least win the against the really bad teams at home. That means beating Detroit and Cleveland (both 2-5) as well as Buffalo (0-7).
If we do that (we'd still lose to Chicago and Tennessee at home) not only would we be 11-5, but we'd have split games with NE and NY and beaten Buffalo twice. That should be good enough to get us to the playoffs!
So, Playoffs, here we come!!!
