If the playoffs were to start next week

I don't trust Alex smith... My cheats ? Dude I absolutely hate the pats

 

I trust Bortles less, lol. No offense but the way you were talking you were bragging up the Cheats......no harm.

 

Please refresh my memory ...I have no clue how any of my posts stated me branding up the cheatriots?

 

I just meant you putting them to the top of the list, not bragging up but saying anyone but the Cheats and Steelers are garbage.

 

thank god that hasn't been the case because NE would have like 17 trophies lol

 

Lack of quality teams but I still wouldn't want to see them in the playoffs. It's just annoying we could have this great year and they play like crap and still have to play each other. I know some fans would enjoy beating them but what's the point? We'd have everything to lose. Them making the playoffs is playing with house money.

 

Every

Sometimes I do try to jinx them by talking positive about them and hoping I am wrong, I did the samething during the 18-1 season before the sb...I was like oh man these a holes brady and billicheat are going 19-0 and we will NEVER EVER hear the end of it.....then that happend #18-1

 

I think Jacksonville could win a few playoff games because of their defense and running game, the Jaguars are 4-0 versus the AFCN.

 

The AFC is super weak right now. In a normal year the current Ravens team is a 6 win ball club. They have no offensive talent AT ALL. Their best player is hurt (Yanda) and they have an atrocious WR corp, atrocious RB corp, and an atrocious QB.

They've lost to every team they've played with a winning record (0-4). Their defense can beat up on bad teams that have garbage QB's (3 shut outs), but they can't keep the better squads from putting 20+ up on them. Their offense can't get to 20 on a consistent basis.

Either way, it's pointless to talk about them. If we get a bye in the playoffs we won't play them a third time. That team is going nowhere whether they make the playoffs or not

 

If the AFC rankings stayed the same as they are today, Steelers would get Tenn or KC at home and Pats would get Jags or Rats - not a bad 2nd round setup. Question then would be - would Steelers fare better against a repeat game against Pats or Jags in AFCC game? I don't like either scenario.

Quirky thing after week 12 if both Steelers and Pats win, they will then be tied at 6-1 conference record, too many tiebreaker nuances to take it any further other than we know Pgh beat KC and Pats lost to them.

 

As between PIT and NE, wouldn't their Week 17 clash (i.e., head-to-head) determine #1 v. #2 seed?
