Today's Games...

[TheMugwump]

...are making the AFC interesting. Here are the standings after today and before the Titans/Rams game and the Steelers take on the Bears tomorrow (and likely win):

Titans (pending): 6-2 (division leader)
Baltimore won: 6-2 (division leader)
Buffalo lost: 5-3 (division leader)
Chargers won (damn): 5-3 (division leader)

Vegas Raiders lost: 5-3
Pittsburgh (pending): 4-3
Cincinnati lost: 5-4
Cleveland won: 5-4
New England won: 5-4
Broncos won: 5-4
Chiefs won: 5-4

Indy is 4-5 (obviously). That is a lot of teams to get passed for a wild card, but being only two games (at most, if Pittsburgh wins) out of a WC with eight games still to play is encouraging, considering an 0-3 and 1-4 start.

Color me slightly optimistic, especially since they play two of the teams ahead of them in the WC, and also considering the Bills looked like garbage today against Jax.

Eight games to play. Nothing's over.

Chiefs and Bills offenses are playing like ass. Raiders are becoming a train wreck. Bengals are falling off a cliff.

Nobody wants to run the ball, especially bills and Chiefs you’re not winning shit come playoff time with zero rushing threat

Dunno about that trade up...Ballard has demonstrated that he likes quantity over quality in the draft.
Also he prefers dumpster diving for bargains and developing these bottom-dwellers into average players over a period of time
(sometimes a very long period of time).

It’s a week to week league. I have no idea who is going to come out of this scrum, except for the Cardinals.

Yeah, they are playing better (luckier) than we are. I still think we beat them if we meet in the playoffs. We just need to get hot and make it in.

It’s not like it matters what the Titans do-we aren’t catching them anyway. Our only way in the playoffs is a wild card.

Vrabel is either one hell of a coach or they’re stealing signs. That team isn’t good enough to blow out the Rams like that, in my opinion.

They are a very good physical team that scored 30 pts a game last year. We just have owned them for so long we aren’t used to them being good. Plus we are just as physical so we don’t notice their impact as much. We Simmons had to talk smack to psyche himself up against a hobbled Nelson. We are walking wounded this season especially that Rams game so we didn’t notice an impact as much. Plus our defense allows stars to look like stars. Most defenses, especially Belichick inspired ones try to take away the other teams strength, not let it run rampant.
