I am not happy about another team that is not MY FINZ being in the playoffs from the AFC East, but if you read how disappointed I have been with them all season, then what was to be expected ? Other than Big Joe Flacco and the Ravens defense dropped the egg against the Bengals.
The Benglas are playing well right now. Which is too bad they are out of time and did not do so at the beginning
Once Goodell installs his new 32 team playoff bracket, keep in mind that the best teams right now are the Chiefs, Patriots, Steelers, Bengals and Homeless Chargers The bracket would end up like this
Round one Patriots over Browns 78-0
Steelers over Texans 34-17
Chiefs over Colts 44-13
Jaguars over Jets 36-17
Titans over Dolphins 14-13
Buffaloes over Broncos 31-13
Chargers over Raiders 24-17
Bengals over Ravens something to something less
ROund Two
Patriots over Buffaloes 45 -7
Steelers over Titans 17-6
Chiefs over Bengals 34-33
Chargers over Jaguars 28-17
ROUND THREE
Patriots over Ccharger 26 to 13
Chiefs over Steelers 35 to 31
Final Patriots 16 Chiefs 13
Of course Goodell just wants to generate more playoff money more interest and give the fans of ALL teams something to root for by letting EVERYONE into the Playoffs EVERYONE gets post season Ticket sales and merchandise sales.
BUT UNTIL then
CHIEFS over Titans What I see is that the CHEFS have finally got it back on track, and they should have an easy time with the Titans
BUFFALOES over Jaguars I hate to pick this, but if CW says anything, it is that at least one visiting team wins. Other than maybe the Dirty Birds, I think this is the only other game that can likely go to a visiting team. A healthy herd of Buffaloes can stampede into Jacksonville and win this game. If McCoy's ankle gives out though, the cats will latch on and take the herd down as carnivores do.
Playoffs all come down to who is playing best RIGHT NOW. Forget the regular season. Might as well start the records over at 0-0. (but don't give Goodell any more ideas)
Before the infamous overturn of the Jesse James TD at Pittsburgh, it looked like it was very possible the Patriots could be a 3 seed and playing this weekend. I couldn't imagine the sheer hell given the weather thru the weekend. A "heat wave" seems to be in the long range outlook, so next Saturday in Foxboro looks to be all right. In terms of this earth shattering report, we'll see how earth shattering it really is. I don't put much stock into anything ESPN reports.
I take it none you are Chiefs fans. If you were, you would know that the Chiefs are extremely unpredictable in the playoffs and typically are one and done even when they run the table during the regular season. The Titans could easily be the team heading to New England next weekend.
Chiefs and Jags, Titans haven't looked great in awhile.
