The Chargers are in a must win game this weekend against Buffalo though, so we'll have a better idea after that game.  Wouldn't that be something if we wound up with the 3 seed and had to see the Chargers as the 6 seed again here in the post season during wildcard weekend?  That's not the match up I'd like to see again.  I guess it would be better than playing the tacks in back to back weekends on week 17 and then again during wildcard weekend though.  Let's hope we can somehow lock up a bye and not have to worry about it.

I came here to post the same thing. The Chargers are bad news and I hope they miss the playoffs, but that AFC West is collapsing around them. They would be the 4th seed if they somehow win that division. I don't think they have a shot at a wildcard but who knows? I would rather play the Bills or Ravens than the Chargers again.
