Here's hoping.

So you are hoping the Jets win.

I think 12 playoff teams would have LOVED to play that team today.

THAT's gonna leave a mark.

After that whaleshit game they don't deserve to make the playoffs.  Seriously, almost everyone involved should be effing ashamed of themselves.

At least they proved the first BAL loss wasn't a fluke

Yep. If Denver loses out and Pitt beats Cleveland...back to the #6 seed.

Im up in Cleveland this week so I saw the Browns.  What the hell happened today?

In my first projection for fun, I had the Bengals losing this week and being the 3rd seed. That means they host the Jets (i believe). I'm under the assumption that Andy isn't back, so I give it to the Jets who are hot right now.

Of course, they could be 2nd seed and have Andy ready for the Divisional Round. Either way, I like the Chiefs.

They were bad, Ben was far worse...and Tomlin, as usual, got horribly outcoached by Harbaugh.

Rolled out the same 'D' in the first half that got torched by Osweiler in the first half last week.  Only this time they decided to run the ball a whole lot more.  A game plan Tomlin must have written on a napkin while drunk on eggnog.

You also predicted the Ravens would win the division with 11 wins

It was a good prediction at the start of the season considering how talented the offense is, though not as bold as the experts who said Super Bowl bound.

I'm not embarrassed with that. It's not like I said that the Ravens did an awful job managing their cap space and then said they should have paid their #3 pass rusher as much as their #1 and #2 make combined. That would be an embarrassing thing to say if I wanted to pretend like I knew even a small amount about football.

If that keeps the Steelers out of the playoffs? Yes.

I don't want to see them in the playoffs for 3 reasons:

The Bengals have "little brother syndrome" when it comes to Pittsburgh.
The Steelers are surging (well, other than a loss to the horrid Ravens)
I hate Cincinnati based Steelers fans, and I enjoy seeing them around town knowing that they're having a rough go with things.

And there's also someone IN THIS THREAD whose blog name is 6andCounting!!!!

You're right, though........  he's probably a Browns fan

In which thread?

LOL

[StoneTheCrow]

Why did they stop running the ball? I think Williams had like 80 yards in the 1st quarter alone.

Losing to the Stains next week will leave a mark.

It is funny you fail to mention my 7 win prediction. I made it with the experts, talking heads, and Ravens fans confident a title was within in their reach. I made it based on a depleted roster the past few years due to poor cap management by Ozzie. Who was right again?

The Ravens knocked them out of the payoffs in 2014 so we all knew Tomlin was going to unleash hell against them this year.
