1st tiebreaker is Conference win-loss-tie percentage
Steelers 7-3
Ravens 7-3
Texans 6-4 (you would be assuming Texans finish 7-5 in conference if talking WC)
Dolphins 6-4
So you would need the loser of the Steelers-Ravens game to lose their last game as well. You would need the Dolphins to lose both remaining games also.
2nd tiebreaker is Common games (minimum of 4)
Common Opponents:
New England ( Beat Dolphins, Beat Ravens, Beat Steelers, Beat Texans)
Cincinnati ( Beat Dolphins, Lost to Ravens, 1 game left vs. Ravens, Lost to Steelers (2), 1 game left @ Texans)
Tennessee ( Beat Dolphins, Lost to Texans, 1 game left vs. Texans)
San Diego ( Lost to Dolphins, Beat Texans)
Jacksonville (Lost to Ravens, Lost to Texans (2))
Oakland (Beat Ravens, Beat Texans)
Kansas City (Lost to Steelers, Lost to Texans)
Indy (Lost to Steelers, Lost to Texans (2))
Steelers 4-1 Texans 3-1 (with 1 common opponent game left Texans vs. Bengals)
Ravens 2-2 Texans 2-2 (both have one common opponent game left against Bengals)
Dolphins 1-3 Texans 1-2 (w/ 2 common opponent games left Texans vs. Bengals and Texans @ Titans)
3rd tiebreaker - strength of victory
Texans 39-45
Dolphins 35-76-1
Ravens 37-60-1
Steelers 50-59-1
4th tiebreaker - strength of schedule
Steelers 7-3
Ravens 7-3
Texans 6-4 (you would be assuming Texans finish 7-5 in conference if talking WC)
Dolphins 6-4

Nvm it was a bleacher report update that I missed the word expected on.
Or for the 3 seed if the steelers lose to the Ravens and then beat the Browns and we win out. Then, I guess common opponents
And I would love the 3 seed vs. the 4 seed

On this front...JJ seems like a LONG ways away from being ready. Heard them say on the tv broadcast that this was his first time at a game because he just got cleared to stand for more than 3 hours.
Based on just that I'm assuming he won't even be 100% at training camp next summer.

Whatever the Texans do, shut him down till August of 2017, I don't want him to touch the field, even if he cleared to play.
JJ is fine and ahead of schedule. Spoke with him yesterday. However, he won't be doing anything anytime soon as a precaution

Trending toward playing.
I think a lot will depend on what Tennessee does earlier in the day.

Well deserved JD!
Surprised Mercilous didn't get invited
Texans getting healthy. Everyone but Miller practiced in some fashion today.
Thanks for the update bilbo. Always appreciated!

Would have liked to see us put a claim in on Michael Floyd.
Pats ended up claiming him.
That is why they win superbowls and we lose to the Chefs in the first round.
http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/18326276/michael-floyd-had-bac-217-face-jail-dui-chargesQuote:
Patriots coach Bill Belichick on Wednesday said the team was aware of the video of the incident. Floyd practiced with the team Wednesday.
"Yeah, we were aware of his situation when we claimed him," Belichick said. "He's in an ongoing legal situation; I'm not going to comment on."
Belichick was asked if the team has a system in place to support players in those types of situations.
"We have a lot of things on our team to handle a multitude of things that players, coaches, anybody in our organization, really, that come up," Belichick said. "There are a lot of things outside of football that we all deal with. It's a long, long list and we provide a lot of resources for everybody on that."

Which miller?
Lamar.
Any update on Fedoroitz and Mercillus?
Both should play Saturday
Eifert and Burfict are out. Looks like we won't be getting cheap shotted
AJ Green out also
Seeing Lamar Miller unlikely to play

With Savage slinging the rock rather than Brock, I am a little more at ease with Miller out. Don't get me wrong, I would prefer to have Miller playing, but I am OK with him missing.
Bleacher Report tends to hype up players before they get a solid look at them on the field, but this is still a great piece about Savage's playing career dating back to Rutgers. It got me pumped up for tonight's game.

Unless Tennessee loses, there's is absolutely no reason for him to play this week
