Does Pats vs Bill Winner this week control their own destiny for the AFC East?

[Defying]

Having trouble finding this.

I figured I had to type it all out anyways to discover for myself, so my as well share.. As I type this, not sure what the outcome is... I've read both...

[h=1]To Break A Tie Within A Division[/h][FONT=&quot]If, at the end of the regular season, two or more clubs in the same division finish with identical won-lost-tied percentages, the following steps will be taken until a champion is determined.[/FONT]
[h=2]Two Clubs[/h]

1. Head-to-head (best won-lost-tied percentage in games between the clubs).
2. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the division.
3. Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games.
4. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the conference.
5. Strength of victory.
6. Strength of schedule.
7. Best combined ranking among conference teams in points scored and points allowed.
8. Best combined ranking among all teams in points scored and points allowed.
9. Best net points in common games.
10. Best net points in all games.
11. Best net touchdowns in all games.
12. Coin toss

Obviously is Pats win they win the division...

If Bills win out, lets see.....

[h=2]Two Clubs[/h]

1. Head-to-head (best won-lost-tied percentage in games between the clubs). 1-1 TIE
2. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the division. 5-1 TIE
3. Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games.
   Both Played Pit Both WON
   Both Played Nyg both WON
   Both Played Was both WON
   (note a bunch of shitty teams so far lol)
   Both Played Cle, Pats Won, Bills Lost 1-0 Pats
   Both Played Bal, Both LOST
   Both Played Phi, Pats Won, Bills Lost 2-0
   Both Played Dal, both WON
   
   In common games, Pats are up 2 games!
   
   Outcome, Pats only lose the division if they lose to both Bills and Dolphins to end the season, and Bills win out... Ha.

There we go. Bills do not control there own destiny. These Bills bloggers are way too hyped lol.

Patriots control their destiny. If they win either remaining game, they win their division. Comes down to third tiebreaker, best winning% against common opponents.

Bills lost to three common opponents, Baltimore, Cleveland & Philadelphia

Patriots only lost to Baltimore (Bills did not play KC or Houston)

Tied head to head, tied in division, Bills cannot win third tiebreaker

If Pats lose both games, Bills can win the division

Pats need to win both to secure the two seed

Would be very depressing to see Bills go 12-4 and not get a bye and not win the division. But probably a 0.0000001% chance Pats lose both home games including last to Dolphins.
