    Didn't we tie the last time we played, or am I forgetting a game in between?

    Spoiler alert: We probably don't belong. But maybe we get lucky an win a game in an AFC playoffs that doesn't seem to have a dominant team (although I think we'll get Buffalo and they won't be afraid to run a lot).

    This team just isn't good enough to beat very good teams. On the bright side, there might not be a very good team in the AFC this year (there isn't one in the North anyway). But look what happened against the Bills.

    IIRC, he's missed something close to half the games we played against them.

    To me all this game actually shows is can we beat Detroit, today in their house. Outside of that it means nothing.

    Yet he hasn't missed every game , and we have beaten him more than he has beaten us. So surely he wasn't injured every time we've beaten him.

    Thats how I felt before they started resembling a functional football team. Moving Ramsey to safety, picking up Dugger, the players airing their grievances with the coaches and getting on the same page all has led to the defense playing much better. On the offensive side, adding MVS and Thielen has made a positive impact and the line has been playing better, Rodgers seems much more comfortable and not fearing for his life anymore.

    So for me personally anyway, the Detroit game will tell me if its fools gold or not.

    Can we beat them in their house, when they have everything to play for and we can afford the loss. That’s a tall order.

    I'd say a our record against Lamar Jackson shows that we can beat him anywhere, but yes , any given Sunday, but that is for every single team in the NFL.

    I really, really hope that you're right.

    It would be crazy if the big difference in the offense was signing two WR3 type guys.

    You made a key point too, there are no Brady Patriots or Chiefs in the way. Everyone is beatable in the AFC this year.

    Oh. LoL.
    Sorry, My Bad.
    On Detroit. We shall see.
    They may blow us out, but I'm not as high as most on the team.
    Again. JMO, but either way , I don't think it means anything more than today we can , or can't beat the Lions at home.
    If everyone has remembered the teams every year that make the SB. Little of what they did in the regular season has mattered one bit about what they did in the playoffs.
    If so just counting recent years, the Bills, Ravens, and the Lions would all have made a SB by now. Those teams have been dominant in the regular season, but get beat in the playoffs.

    Oh I believe! Gave me a heart attack but that was an awesome win!

    Protect Arod at all cost and we can play with anyone in these playoffs.

    Steelers need to get healthy and some how go into the playoffs playing their best football. The NFL is as wide open as I’ve ever seen. Aaron Rodgers at QB could be a problem for the opponents.

    When it comes to the weekly pick'em, consider me @truckin9999@truckin9999 - 17-0. Winning that pool isn't worth picking against the Black & Gold.
