    We need dolphins to lose both remaining games and now tua in concussion protocol. They have Patriots on road. Not easy with backup. Then home against jets. Tough d .
    White will be back. Other than that. We need Seahawks to beat jets this week and the. We have to win out. Not easy but possible. With our luck. Lamar comes back and we get boatraced

    Colts defense is trying to help against the Chargers, but the Colts offense is horrible.

    I didn't even know that Nick Foles was still in the league. After tonight's performance he probably won't be.

    Down to one team, Dolphins. We win two and Dolphins lose two and nobody else in the hunt for 7th seed finishes 9-8. That`s it for possibilities.

    3 things need to happen in week 17 to keep the Steelers chances alive for the final week of the season
    1. Steelers win vs the Ravens
    2. Seahawks win vs the Jets
    3. Patriots win vs the Dolphins

    If those 3 things happen in week 17, The Steelers would still be alive and need 3 additional things in week 18.
    Needs in week 18 are....
    1. Steelers win vs the Browns
    2. Jets win over the Dolphins
    3. Buffalo wins vs the Patriots.

    That's a total of 6 results. 3 on week 17 and 3 on week 18. If all 6 results happen, the steelers are the 7th seed in the playoffs

    Yep. I like the odds of Jets and Dolphins losing on the road this coming weekend. Wondering what QB we will be seeing in our game with Ratbirds.

    Jets could beat the Seahawks in week 17 and there could still be a shot.

    Steelers win out
    Pats beat Dolphins, lose to Bills
    Jets beat Seattle, it's not over.

    Jets and Dolphins tie in week 18, Steelers still get in. I'd say a tie is unlikely, but after Chargers - Raiders last year, I'd say who knows.

    I guess that's a possibility. But rooting for a tie is beyond a long shot

    None of those 6 results are crazy. They all could happen.

    Because of the 2017 postseason!

    Same for Joe Flacco and his 2012 postseason!

    Dang it. What are all the fans (I use that term lightly for those that apply in this case) supposed to do now that they are ruining the 2023 top 5 draft pick?

    Yep. Nice to have something to keep watch for that is realistic.

    It will be totally amazing if we get the first 3 results. It would be great to have a shot last weekend of the regular season. Totally crazy really considering where we were at 2-6.

    Wish we could switch game time with Dolphins though. Would hate to go into late game knowing we were eliminated before we play. Really somewhat surprising the NFL did not do it that way.

    That’s what happens when there is a 7th team 17th game and you play the NFC South! Seriously how bad is that division? If Brady wins a playoff game this year I’ll vomit.

    Hurts is the best QB in the NFL…. Or so Eagles fans tell me.

    About
    These six games are important, but the Chiefs/Broncos and Buffalo/Cincy games also become important. If the Chiefs lose and Buffalo wins, they clinch home field. Means they may be resting some players week 18. Although you know if Buffalo has a chance to keep New England out of the playoffs, they're not going to roll over and die.

    Basically, we have to control what we can control. If we win two and still don't make it, well, that's life. If we win two and make it, the "Fire Tomlin" crowd is going to have to reevaluate their life choices.

    Beat the Ratbirds, singular focus.

    I refuse to root for NE, but won't be upset if they win.
    J E T S - S U C K, hopefully that holds true this week but not next week.
