I agree, we just broke the curse of Bo Jackson last year.  I don't think we need to benefit from this in any way to have a fair shot at the title this year.

Plus, playing at Buffalo is not my major concern. Last year the Bengals were the team that no one was talking about that went all the way.  This year it could be the Chargers or the Jags, which are both scarier than any of the WC teams last year.  The Ravens, if Jackson returns, are also better than any of the WC teams last year.

Fact is, the AFC (if Jackson returns) has 6 teams that will be tough outs.  The chances of any one team going the distance are low this year.
