So many teams in the AFC picture are super questionable, bengals INCLUDED. There are also so many games in which teams that are currently in the playoffs/hunt play each other, and with the question marks with every team, it’s very hard (impossible?) to get a good read on the outcome. I’m struggling with the game tonight even. I think the Steelers should win. But I won’t be surprised for the patriots without Stevenson to beat Steelers.
Other games Next two weeks that are interesting to the AFC playoffs as a whole. I’m only going to focus on games where one team moves up, and the other down in relation to the AFC playoff picture. ie, the Vikings game is important to us, and a must win… but it doesn’t drastically change the AFc race, especially the wild card.
Week 14
Bengals/Colts
Jags/browns
Chiefs/bills
Broncos/chargers
Week 15
Steelers/colts
Ravens/jags
Again, this doesn’t include other games that will still result in a lot shake-up. My prediction is, in two weeks, only one team that is currently in the wild card spot (Steelers, browns, colts) will still be there.
I’m quoting myself and there is still 3 quarters to go… but I did say earlier I wouldn’t be surprised if the pats win. Long way to go, but the Steelers are not very good. (I know we lost to them).
