What if Morten Andersen makes his 1996 Week 17 FG and the Jaguars miss the playoffs?

Denver probably ends up winning the SB that year without Jacksonville in their way.

Who would have made the playoffs in Jacksonville’s place if the kick is made? And is that team beating Buffalo? (Jacksonville beat them before Denver)

Kansas City

Do you think Kansas City in 96 is beating Buffalo and Denver like Jacksonville did?

No. And, I don't think the Bills beat Denver. Broncos go on to beat NE and GB and win the Super Bowl.

In late 1962 and early 1963, the Raiders and Chiefs had futures that were in doubt (as far as staying in their current cities was concerned):

What if in 1993 instead of the Super Bowl being in the Georgia Dome the NFL went back to the old way where the team with the best record hosted the title game in their home stadium? Could the Cowboys have beat Buffalo in Buffalo in this scenario? Were the 90 Giants, 91 Redskins, (92 the Bills beat the Dolphins in Miami in AFCCG, but hell swap the Oilers out with the 92 Cowboys in that Wild Card game in that stadium on that day), 93 Cowboys good enough to beat the Bills in Buffalo?
