• Absolutely can't stand the whole trying to run out the clock thing - they did it the whole second half. It's pretty rare you get lucky that Josh Allen misses the throw.
• Defense really played great. Some of those Bills catches were circus.
• Absolutely 100% worth it to play for the #2 seed. You'd get the Dead Men Walking Packers in the Wild Card, and a home game in the divisional. And Seahawks or 49ers, whoever gets #1, definitely are ripe for a divisional round upset. Might have to play the Rams with the #3 seed. Now, maybe you tell me the backups can beat Washington, and that's a good point.

I usually am one to side on the side of taking the week off for rest but I agree this year I think it's quite a difference between the 2nd and 3rd seed so you gotta play for it.  I'd much rather play the Pack in game 1 than any of the 3 West teams.  Plus the 2nd home game and a possibility of a 3rd home game if somehow this offense doesn't kill this team before that point, is definitely worth going for it.  

Yeah I think the Birds have a better shot of advancing against the Packers than the Rams. So playing for the #2 seed is def. worth it.
