So we are Seattle over Kansas City away from the Chargers having HFA.
Dolphins win over Patriots is going to be the difference. If Seattle wins ouch.

I will say this though Houston as the first playoff would be easier than LA or KC in the divisional round.

Uh oh Alsacs watch out for Stevan!

Ridley 'fired up' to face Pats after bitter '14 exit

Ridley has played for 5 teams since he left the Pats. He is a fumble machine and that is why he wasn’t resigned.
I am way more worried about Juju and Brown.
It will actually hurt the Pats if Connor doesn’t play as it make the Steelers more aggressive in the air.
With last nights result and Miami debacle though this game would have been even larger.
Now we are Seattle beating KC win away from the AFC playoffs going thru the Stubhub Center:
I guarantee if the AFC title game is Pittsburgh/Kansas City/New England at LA Chargers the opponent will have more fans in the stadium. Chargers will use the silent count at home with those fanbases and it being in LA.

So nice of Andy Reid to give the nation a preview of how the Chiefs will crash and burn in the playoffs next month.

Dolphins are going to beat the New york Giants in the superbowl.

I say this with all respect TrueBlue and I really do like you but

This is the most ridiculous statement made on the board since CuseHulk was still around.

Over under turnovers for Ben is 3 this week. Guy looks shot this year.

As bad as the Patriots are in Miami they are that good against the Steelers in the Brady era.
I don’t like to bet on my team but Patriots -2 I would if I had to beet money I would put in on the Patriots.

Ben will make plays but the Pats will double Antonio Brown and will put Gilmore their best CB on Smith-Schuster.

No Bell will hurt them as he was a guy who made trouble for the Pats defense. If the Steelers don’t have Connor then they will just spread the Pats out and chuck it and until the Steelers learn to play man to man on defense Brady will carve up their zone if given time.
It sucks for Pittsburgh they go to NO the following week as I bet whatever the Pats do well on Sunday will basically be tee’d up for the Saints to copy.

Is it really HFA if they other teams fans are in great number than your own? If the chargers played the pats or Steelers, itd be like 75-25

Rams would have the same problem...

There’s at least a 50/50 at Rams games I’ve been too but yeah it’s not great.

I understand how ridiculous the statement is, but hey now there’s been some pretty insane stuff posted here

I take that back. Ish and CouCuse fill in the CuseHulk space pretty well.

Now, if Trueblue really believed what he said, then we'd be on to something.

Hell, he couldn't even make the Jets, who had zero ground game before or since.

I wonder how the league feels about having playoff games in a tiny soccer stadium.

Fun fact in each of the Steelers 3 SB appearances in the Ben era they avoided the Patriots on the way. 2005 Pats lost divisional round at Denver. 2008 was the Brady injury year and NE didn't make playoffs. 2010 NE lost to the freakin' Jets in the divisional round.

 

[Alsacs]

Vance Joseph has to be fired for kicking a FG on a 4th and 1 on the 6 down 4 with 5 minutes to go.
It’s beyond soft.

 

[NineOneSeven]

Why did they spike it there with two timeouts left? Lmao

Fire that guy my god. You wasted a down like that!!?

Knew there was no way you were picking the soup pusher.

Isn't Dak the new soup pusher?

Yep. And a yogurt slinger too.

At least Donovan had won a playoff game before the endorsements started coming his way.

One of the perks of being QB1 for America’s team.
