I'll be cheering against them to make it. I really hope they don't. Won't really matter though. They'll get knocked out in the Wild Card round anyway. They need a whole lot more help than just winning out.

Here's what basically needs to happen
You DONT need Denver to lose because they own the tiebraker over you anyway, so you're looking for the 6th spot because if it comes down to you and denver denver gets in.
You need to beat the Pats first and foremost.
Then the Titans need KC to beat Jax and Pitt to beat Cinci
If that happens then KC will be 9-7 and Jax and Cinci will be 8-8. The Titans have the tiebreaker over KC because of their conference record, thus giving them the final roster spot.
Things get interesting if the Jets win, Jax wins, and you win because you split with Jax and the Jets beat you and Jax beat the Jets. Its a very interesting situation and I believe it would go to conference record, which if the Jets win out they will win.
So you need a Jax loss, Cinci loss and Jets to split in their final 2 games.

If, on the off-chance, you beat the great Pats which is my team, your record will be 9-7. And you want to be in a wild-card spot. You then want the Jets to lose against Oakland. (Hard feat)
You also want Denver to lose against San Fransisco. and you want Kansas City to lose to Jacksonville Or the other way around. Also, if you want, the Bengals should lose to Pittsburg ( Another hard feat)
So if all above goes as it sez, then the Titans, Jets, and Jacksonville will have 9-7 and the Bengals and Kansas and Pittsburg will be kicked out at 8-8.
According to the NFL Tiebraking Procedures, the Jets will be kicked out because Jacksonville beat them. and Jacksonville beat Tennessee once, but the reverse holds true.
So your team will go to the playoffs according to above.
