Do you think the playoff teams have bad offenses?

 

No, but if our defense plays decent, 30 points should be enough to win, particularly against KC.

I agree DC.  I think Steelers have a D to slow King Henry, but we don’t.  

 

The Steelers gave up 160+yrds at 6.8 ypc against Henry less than a week ago

Chiefs beat ravens , bengals , broncos , Steelers , Texans  this season and look pretty solid late as of late  .  Not sure why they wouldn’t have an easy path  to the championship . 

 

Like all things NFL, when you play a team is very determinant of your chance of beating them.

 

They played the Ravens for the first game of the season during their 0-2 opening garbage stretch when the Ravens looked awful and lost to the Raiders!

 

They played the Bengals during their bad opening stretch when they started 1-4. And the Chiefs still needed some handy ref calls.

 

They played the Texans down Diggs and Dell. Their best two receivers.

 

They were a blocked field goal from losing to Denver.

In the age of the Internet, feelings don't care about your facts.

Looking at the possible scenarios, I think the best we can hope for is Steelers get the #6 seed and beat the Ravens, and the Bills get the Broncos or Colts in the first round and play the winner of Texans/Chargers in round 2. 

 

That would require the Steelers to lose to the Bengals and the Chargers/Colts to win out.

The Bills are getting good experience playing in all types of “our” weather the last three home games.  Which you would think would be a playoff advantage for the home games.

 

vs SF  cold and snowy entire game

vs NE  freezing cold near single digits 

vs NY  rain forecasted entire game, 55

This is a great point. Playing in garbage conditions one week, in a dome the next shows how versatile this team is. Luckily for us some of our best offensive outputs have come in domes which is where the Super Bowl is played.

I could see the chargers upsetting the ravens

Yea I saw that, but they’re banged up right now, similar to our D.  They held King Henry in check their first game when healthy.  I don’t see any other team slowing him.  We maybe could if we get up by 14 early.

Not a chance. Have you seen the Chargers offense? They can't score, which is not going to fly against Baltimore. Lately the Chargers defense looks highly vulnerable as well. I give Los Angeles no chance of beating the Ravens. They just don't have the horses

We are running the table. The afc championship game will be in Buffalo. Kansas City will lose the divisional game 

This is our year. We got this. Enjoy the ride
