On our way to pick 20 as division champions. Almost there already...

Or do the Wild card teams automatically get picks 20-24 leaving us with 25?

Thanks. I keep forgetting the playoffs have been expanded to six WC teams. But we might draft as high as 21 if we lose in the WC round, Right? Or has that been changed?

This week the Colts are listed as the #21.

That makes sense since they hold the H-H tie-breaker advantage, but I was assuming the best possible draft pick AND a division title. The easiest path would be to win out and take the division with the best overall record. Second would be to have the best overall record within the division, even with additional losses. Third would be to win tiebreakers H-H and then division, then Conference.

We do control our own destiny, but a win over the Colts is almost like two wins since they currently have the H-H advantage.
 
Woohoo, so as of now we've lost enough games to not get a postseason but won enough to get the worst pick of that lot.

We are Jack's festering mediocrity ...
 
NO, Buffalo, Tenn and Jax should be ours and maybe Colts. 9-7 would be great especially after our start. Play the games then sweat the draft pick.
 
I still hope we're the ones that put an end to the NE win streak and win @Indianapolis, even if we unexpectedly lose to one of the other three. While mathematically, this opens up the door for Jacksonville, I'd take my chances.

On second thought, just win out and get that 32nd pick.

Just pencil them into slots 21-24. We will beat Indianapolis and Tennessee and maybe Jacksonville to win the AFC South. That's probably as far as we go unless we face Cincinnati.
