By the looks of your gif I'd say Bane.

If the field collapses and the game is cancelled, we miss out on the playoffs based on W%.

That would so be our luck.

We gave up 7 sacks yesterday, and somehow won due to JBs heroics
Not too sure they can pull that off again in Pitt knowing we may have Cochrane attempting at blocking Watt.

It's scary for sure. I know our offensive firepower is capable of tearing up the stoolers. However, Our OL and Defense will keep the stoolers in it. I wont even try to predict a score on this game, but the defense has stepped up over the last month, so thats a plus. Joe is going to fire this team up this week. They will bring all they got.

Remember of those 7 4 were Burrow holding the ball waiting a while for a play to open up. In essence coverage sacks. As to Cochrane let's see how it looks later in the week - if Mims is able to go good otherwise we'll need to have Sample in a lot supporting Cochrane.

I've not paid attention to Pittsburgh's playoff status other than knowing they are in. Are they in a position to play starters for the game?
RE: On to Pittsburgh!!! - Joelist - 12-29-2024
It depends. If Baltimore beats the Stains then Pitt cannot advance any further then they are.
RE: On to Pittsburgh!!! - bjf123 - 12-29-2024
It won’t matter. The Broncos aren’t losing to the Chiefs.

Possible, simple if game time is before or sames as Ravens yes starters will play for sure since they can still win division. If after Ravens game starters will play if Ravens lose

Assuming the Ravens beat the Browns.
The Steelers will play their starters because if they lose to Cincy, they play the Ravens in the Wild Card round; if they beat Cincy, they play Houston in the Wild Card round.

7 sacks, 3 or 4 given up by Cody Ford, the rest coverage sacks.
Mims/Cochrane and Brown gave up 0 sacks, with Brown giving up 0 total pressures.
Nuance, learn it

The chiefs are 2-2 when resting starters the final week. I guess you thought that the giants (who had nothing to play for), would beat the colts (who had everything to play for)?
The giants went from 1 OVR pick to right now 4.
It’s hard to tank with players on the field. Carson Wentz could very easily be the better QB on Sunday afternoon.
RE: On to Pittsburgh!!! - pally - 12-30-2024
Tomlin said he hasn't thought about not playing people if Ravens win earlier in the day. Said it might be something he thinks about later but doesn't anticipate he would go down that street.

The Chiefs have won 17 of their last 18 match ups with the Broncos. That's a mental thing to overcome for the Broncos. We have watched the Bengals, with superior teams, have trouble overcoming situations like that.
I also wonder if the Chiefs really want to go almost a month between games for their starters We've all seen other teams struggle with too much of a layoff going into the playoffs

Yeah, I am not going to make a prediction on this one either with so much that could happen. I know our team will play their asses off and
could certainly win, but it won't be easy with our O-line against Twatt, Heyward and company and Fitzpatrick is a head hunter like a lot of
their players over the years. Expecting a lot of fights, have to keep our heads.
Also our Defense was just terrible against this team the last time around. Worse than against any other Offense, I don't expect them to be
THAT bad again. We will see.
RE: On to Pittsburgh!!! - StoneTheCrow - 12-30-2024
My biggest concern in this game is the Steelers pulling some Steelers shit and injuring Burrow for NEXT season. By design.
