Broadcast Origin & Mathematical Framework

Inspired directly by the @NFLonCBS broadcast analysis quoting Danny Kanell (@dannykanell): “The Bills are on a mission to get that Super Bowl.” In this simulator, regular-season outcomes are compounded against opponent conference strength, home-field advantage weighting, and historical AFC playoff seeding thresholds from the 17-game era. Division probabilities reflect AFC East historical win distribution models.
