Two important AFC games today

Yes

 

Facing Houston is a better option than playing Buffalo or Baltimore at this point, Houston didn't put up much fight against the Ravens on Christmas by only scoring two points.

 

I’m calling it now. Browns will beat the Ravens. LJ is gonna go down with an injury.

Steelers will beat the Bengals.

 

Giants beating the Colts 28-13 at the start of the 3rd quarter. Colts lose they are out and it’s another one of the dominoes that the Bengals needed to drop in their favor.

 

Somebody needs to remind the Giants they're blowing their chance at the #1 pick by winning this game.

 

Colts lose giving Bengals hope. Go Miami. Beat dem Brown turds

 

To the frigging Giants.

 

Worried the stars are going to line up for the Bengals. Browns like to screw us.

 

Cincy has something to play for next week regardless of what happens today.

The Steelers are lucky they didn't lose to the Bengals in Cincy or they'd be playing for their playoff lives next weekend. In a sense they are, they lose, they're heading to Baltimore.

NFL would prefer SD (LAC) @ KC and Balt @ Buff for AFC divisional playoffs, more showcase QBs and coaches that actually win when it matters .

 

Colts are eliminated with their pathetic loss to the Giants. The Bengals have to root for the Browns to beat the Dolphins who are starting Tyler Huntley today and then hope the Chiefs backups knock off the Broncos next week. The Bills who just 2 weeks ago were relaxing as the #7 seed looked like it would be the Broncos, Dolphins or Colts coming to Buffalo. Now they have to praying that it won't be the red hot Bengals with Joe Burrow and company coming to visit.

 

The Steelers would remain the 5th seed with a loss, if the Chargers also lose in week 18 vs the Raiders.

 

If the Browns beat the Dolphins today it will come down to the Bengals Steelers game and Chiefs Broncos games next week to determine who will be the 7 seed in the AFC. Like JPP said the Steelers are damn lucky they won that game in Cincinnati 4 weeks ago or that game next week would be for the final playoff spot in the AFC.

 

The Chiefs probably won't play their starters the whole game with the #1 seed already wrapped up.

 

You think the Chargers would prefer to play @ Hou or @ Balt? Something tells me the Chargers will take care of the business next weekend, just like they did yesterday.

 

They won't play them at all. Do you think the Chiefs want to see the Bengals in the playoffs? They will just phone it in next week with the #1 seed all wrapped up.

 

Well, in order to see the Bengals in the playoffs, it would mean the Bills (the only team to beat the Chiefs this year) would be out.

I'm guessing KC doesn't care either way.

 

The Chiefs play the worst seeded team when they play their first playoff game in the second round. If the Bengals get in as the #7 seed and win then that means the Chiefs first round game would be against Cincinnati. The Chiefs would much rather not have the Bengals get in and play their first playoff game against the Steelers or Texans which would be nothing more than a tune up for them for the AFC title game. Then all they have to do is win one game against either the Bills or Ravens to go to the Superbowl again. Joe Burrow has gone to Arrowhead and won an AFC title before, Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen hasn't.

 

Denver should be able to get the 7th seed, the Chiefs are resting their starters next week they announced.

 

With the Bills win today, The possibility of facing the Bills in the 1st round is completely off the table.

 

Man is DTR terrible on the Browns. This has to be one of the worst QB performances I have seen in a very long time against Miami today. The Steelers get what they deserve losing to them on that Thursday night in the blizzard and being completely unprepared that game. That game costs the Steelers the division and a home playoff game this year. The Browns have zero chance of beating the Ravens next week with Thompson Robinson playing QB. He is beyond horrific.

 

I'm gonna be pissed if the Browns end up with the first pick next year. The Titans and Pats might win if Hou and Buf rest their starters. Just cause.

 

Were the Ravens unprepared too when they lost to the Browns?

 

Yes that was Jameis Winston's first start and he came out firing totally throwing the Ravens defense off kilter. He also did the same thing to us, too bad the Browns made the switch to DTR, he is by far the worst QB in the NFL.

 

I don't think the Browns are actually trying to win these games with DTR at QB.

 

Doesn't matter, DTR sucks. The two items are not related lol
