That was actually one of KC's more solid wins this season.

That's kind of sad.

[Big Blitz]

Here is how this plays out if Baltimore catches Pittsburgh.

 

Baltimore the 3 seed.  Pittsburgh the 5. 
 

Bc the Texans are toast the Steelers go to Houston and win.  

 

Bills v Ravens round 2.  
 

The Bills will get the Ravens in round 2. 
 

The Chiefs will get the Steelers.

 

 

How nice.

They're trending up, go figure... The WR core is actually good at this point. Hopkins, Brown, Worthy and two good TE's with Pacheco back. That's a lot of weapons. They will figure it out and we will meet them in in Arrowhead for all the marbles.

Soooo is Chris jones injured ?

 

out 8 weeks right?  

[Process]

So now we definitely want the Steelers to win today.

Yes because if the Steelers win the East today they'll have little to play for against the Bengals since they wrapped up the division (besides seeding).

Expand  

 

No, I’m rooting for the Steelers.

 

I want the Ravens dropping to the 6 seed and playing KC in the 2nd round.

They’re not that bad. Al-Shaiir not being available for them is huge.

They are the definition of mediocre. Kansas City did whatever they wanted today

 

Weren't you the one who tried to tell em they were good 😂

Yup.....a Steelers win today would be good in the long run providing we take care of our business.  That said, I don't expect it to happen.  Don't trust the Steelers to be able to score enough points.

Genuinely wondering if the Chiefs are doing harm to the NFL… I don’t say this in terms of ratings or popularity, but the level of rage I see against officiating in their games on Twitter/X from people that are just random fans or NFL accounts can’t be good for the league in the long run. 

Expand  

 

There are 31 other teams in the NFL.  

 

It's NEVER good for a sports league to see the SAME franchise winning over and over and over and over and over.  Especially after suffering through nearly two decades of the Patriots.  Every other fanbase in the country is beginning to hate the Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes with a passion, and eventually I think people are just going to turn it off.  If it wasn't for Josh Allen and the slim hope we may someday pull one off, I know I would be done.  

 

That's what I did in the 90s with the NBA.  Michael Jordan was a fun player to watch.  But the dominance by the Chicago Bulls eventually just got tiresome and predictable.  All the other great players during that period (Charles Barkley, Patrick Ewing, Karl Malone, etc.) who couldn't sniff a trophy because of them was a true travesty.

 

I can tell you that if the Buffalo Bills don't win a Super Bowl with Allen, that's it for me with the NFL.

True.  I guess it's how you feel about having to host the Bengals in the first round.

They'll also have little to play for vs KC. Which means KC wins and then has little to play for vs Denver. Which means Denver wins and Bengals are out. 

 

Go Steelers.

Remember why we used to read this forum and we’d see serious comments about how the Bills should fire Sean McDermott and hire Bobby F’N Slowik.  This folx are quiet now.  
 

Ah… good times

[Nephilim17]

I was afraid a Steelers win could have them challenge for the 2 seed but it's too much math for my port-addled brain. I hate the Ravens so I'm rooting for the Steelers...

I'm sure Andy Reid will jab him with a needle and he'll be ready to go next week.
