I'm sure we're all amused by the Raven's loss, but....

    Nope, quite happy Ravens lost and bounced from the playoffs.

    Not too worried about the Jags. Steelers are much better than when they played the first game and Jags arent as good as they were.

    Biggest difference, Ben is a different QB then the first game. Doubt he throws 5 picks again.

    If you told me that I'd be unimpressed. Hardly anyone on the Bills now or in their organization was around when Marone was, and the events of the Rex Ryan Clown Car experience make Marone leaving seem like a distant memory. Payback? Guys who weren't around when Marone left aren't likely to deliver it.

    Only one team standing in the way of a Super Bowl. Not worried about anyone else in the least.

    I don't even see another RB on their roster other than 2 FBs. 2 other RBs on IR. They will need to pick someone up I'm thinking.

    DeAngelo?? haha

    Our chances in the playoffs are not defined by who we play in the first game, but by who plays New England. If it's Kansas City, we are in good shape.

    It's going to be Kansas City, because Buffalo is not going down to Jacksonville without McCoy and beating the Jags.

    We will play a much better, and much smarter game against Jacksonville this time around, and they don't have the running game right now that they had in October.

    The goal, is to have KC beat New England. It's our one, and only shot, and I think it has a damn good chance of happening.

    As long as the Bills or Titans do not win, I'm okay with it. I'd rather the Patriots play the Chiefs than the Ravens. I also don't want to see the Chiefs again.

    Ben threw 5 picks and 2 Pick sixes...

    Bortles was 8-14 for 95 yards.

    Fornette was 28 for 181 with one of those being a 90 yard TD gallop with 2 minutes left in the game.

    Point being they really didn't do much on offense, it was all Ben's mistakes

    I won't assume anything from Brown until I see him playing. I'm not saying the Steelers can't win. I'm saying the Jaguars are the worst matchup of any team in the AFC other than the Patriots.

    That was the Steelers' defense with Shazier. They were playing much better on defense than they are now.

    We actually have two shots. KC could beat New England or the Steelers can do it themselves. This team is better than last year's team, though not at full potential with Shazier injured and AB hurt. I believe the Steelers can go into New England and win this year based on talent, and not wishing it to happen, as I did last year. Steelers win if it doesn't come down to replay.

    You can't worry about anyone else's match ups and count on other people to do your bidding. This is the playoffs, every team is dangerous and you have to win or go home so you have to show up for every game regardless of how lowly you think of them. If we have to be that worried about the jags at home, what are we going to do about the pats at Gillette? Just roll over and quit.

    You are a fan of the best team in football, act like it. We don't need other teams winning for us, we take down the best to be the best.

    The Jags beat us down bad, but we should have tape & make a few corrections & not have any problems with them. If they beat us again at home then we simply don't deserve to move on. Our offense is playing a lot better now, but our defense really really has been sucking lately. Too many big plays & just can't get off the field on 3rd downs. Thank god their offense suck too so something has to give. That 5 interception game was an anomaly that is not likely to happen again...

    People will laugh at this, but I think it's true. I really don't think anyone (at least in the AFC side) is as good as we are. If our offense is even decently clicking, we'll steamroll anyone.

    Amused? I'm ecstatic! Love that the crows lost, love it. And to the bungles :lolol: Eliminated!

    Who cares who we play? I don't. Time to mow through to the Super Bowl.

    Don't snooze on the Chiefs going to NE and winning.

    And Ben isn't going to have another 5 pick game against the Jags.

    I'm going to enjoy the Bye Week, rest up the heart and voice.

    Happy New Year!

    GO STEELERS!

    As for me I'm scared s#$tless. I watched a bum of a QB convert 3rd and long too many times yesterday. WE MISS SHAZIER BIG TIME!!!!! Jacksonville has the ability to come into the Burgh and win and if not Brady would eat our D for lunch.

    My sister calls me negative nelly and you can too.

    I could not stop laughing all night how the Ravens blew it, I have a golf buddy who is a Bills season ticket holder and he was posting stuff all night on facebook.....love it!

    As for playing the Jags I said it when we lost to the Cheats this playoff run is the revenge tour. First bring on the Jag offs and then the Cheats, no way in hell Ben plays that bad again and I am confident we control their run game. Oh did I mention they have Bortles as QB......not scared at all. The Ravens losing is what we needed as now they will get KC who can beat them and if not soften Marsha up for us.

    This is shaping up nicely for us and I couldn't be more happy to see the Ravens sit home and be knocked out by the Bungals and that will make that rivalry a little more heated next year. Let them 2 beat each other up and we cruise in for another division title......after we win #7 this year.

    Not having a healthy AB for the Jags if we play them may not be a bad thing. It would mean a more heavy run game and we know they are hard to throw against but not to run against.
