The Steelers might be the most boring and sluggish team I've ever seen, they borderline Dallas as far as sounding completely ridiculous when mentioning their name and playoffs in the same sentence
At one point prior to the half the Steelers recovered a Stroud fumble at the Houston 21. They ran 7 plays and kicked a FG from the 17!!! That’s how pathetic they’re offense is.

That's what I'm saying, they are the most lame offense ever, I don't know how anyone can sit back and watch that team play.
Early thoughts on this weekends games I can sincerely say I do NOT feel confident in picking a winner in any of these contests
Josh Allen is better than Bo Nix but Denver has a better overall team so could go. either way but give Buffalo the edge
SF is seriously banged up and Seattle's D is damn good, I don't trust Darnold but give the edge to Seattle
I think the Pats are better offensively than Houston but not sure how good they will be against Houston when they were not great against the Chargers, edge to Houston since that D is FEROCIOUS
Rams on paper are great but after watching them barely beat Carolina and seeing how resilient the Bears are and their never give up. attitude I think Chicago pulls it off

I guess if he would have coughed up the ball a couple more times maybe he would have made it into the 80’s.
What a load of crap QBR is. 😂
agreed. QBR is a junk "stat"

And in a single season 3 of the 4 HC’s in the Division are gone. Should be an interesting offseason and competitive next season. Suddenly the Bengals would be the odds on pick to win the AFC Central in 2026.

It’s tough to lead an organization for so long without fresh injection of energy. But Tomlin is tied with Beli for most consecutive winning seasons as HC and they only sit behind Landry who coached for some team whose name escapes me not sure if they even exist anymore…. But so much diss here.
Tomlin is still under contract for another year, so there could be a similarity to what happened with Sean Payton when he chose to accept an offer with Denver, then the New Orleans Saints were entitled to compensation as his employer. If Tomlin is offered a job elsewhere, the Steelers could be entitled to compensation as well. So, I don't think he got fired.

I fail to see how Denver has a better overall team. Denver offense sucks and have been pulled along by a decent defense against mediocre teams. Jacksonville went there and dominated in Denver.

W.C.Fields "I spent 50% of my money on alcohol, women, and gambling. The other half I wasted.
Denver won four games in the regular season against teams that made the playoffs (Chargers - 19-3, Eagles - 21-17, Texans - 18-15 and Packers 34-26). Denver lost two games in the regular season against teams that made the playoffs (Chargers - 20-23; and Jacksonville - 20-34)
Buffalo won three games in the regular season against teams that made the playoffs (Steelers - 26-7, Tampa Bay - 44-32 and New England - 35-31). Buffalo lost three games in the regular season against teams that made the playoffs (New England - 20-23, Texans - 19-23 and Eagles - 12-13).
The above does not, to me, indicate that Buffalo will win exactly like they did last year (31-7 Buffalo).
I am starting to experience deja vu all over again.
After the 1997 regular season Denver advanced to its 5th Superbowl (with an 0-4 record) against the Green Bay Packers and Bret Favre. The consensus amongst multiple supposedly knowledgeable, experienced, wise folks was that Denver had no chance of winning the game.
Turned out that Denver beat Green Bay to claim the first of its three Lombardi Trophies. Denver's mental state of mind during that playoff run was essentially that everyone is underestimating us and we will surprise everyone.
Buffalo is saddled with an 0-4 Superbowl Record and has yet to show it can win the title. Going through yet another playoff season must be tough for Buffalo to deal with as a loss in any of the next three games will simply prolong Buffalo's long suffering agony.
In summary, anyone who thinks Saturday's game is a lock victory for Buffalo or for Denver is deluded.
I have no clue who will win.
I am looking forward to the game and I think it will be a good one.
Anyone who underestimates Denver may be in for some major disappointment.

You dont have to convince me to not like Nix that much. Dudes a roller coaster where he can make the best play or the worst play. His stats looked pretty good for the season until you look at the game logs and see how many of them came from a couple games and how many games he was bad in that their defense won or just kicking field goals all day

huge loss for Houston if Nico Collins doesn't clear concussion protocol
Schefter said last night that he would be shocked if Collins plays Sunday. short week and he didnt practice yesterday. that will be a huge loss for Houston. Conversely, it looks like Gonzalez will be playing Sunday. those 2 players alone would be a huge swing.
I think it will be a low scoring game, but I am taking NE.
I for one, want Buffalo in Foxboro next week. there is the history/rivalry and I want to see the best player on the planet (Allen) in the AFC Championship game!
has anyone heard anything about Josh Allens health heading into Denver? He took quite a beating last weekend with both a knee injury and injury to his throwing hand. I am hoping he is fully healthy. or as healthy as possible at this point in the season

W.C.Fields "I spent 50% of my money on alcohol, women, and gambling. The other half I wasted.
My interest in the NFL and in Denver has decreased since Denver won two Superbowls in 1998 and 1999. Too much other stuff (wife, kids, work, caring for elderly relatives, etc.) reduced the time and desire I have to devote to my favorite pro sports team.
However, I do follow Denver each year and when it performs well and makes the playoffs I take a closer look at the team's performance.
The 2025 Denver team is very good defensively. In the regular season it led the league in sacks (68), pressures (285) and QB hits (164). Denver's pass defense is also pretty good. It is 7th in opponent passing yards per game (e.g., ~187.2 Yds/G) and is 2nd in Yards Per Pass Attempt (e.g., 6.1 Yds/Att).
How good is Buffalo's offensive line this year? If it is not playing at a level that provides Josh Allen with adequate protection he will be under duress during Saturday's game. Also how good is the Buffalo receiving corp?
Nico Collins missed practice again today. I believe that will rule him out for sunday. I believe that players have to participate in 2 practices: 1 non contact, 1 contact in order to make it through the protocol. Collins has not participated all week and tomorrow is their last practice before Sundays game.

the Pittsburgh Steelers will have a new head coach for the first time since 2007
looking for only their 4th HC since 1969
They fired Tomlin???
And in a single season 3 of the 4 HC’s in the Division are gone. Should be an interesting offseason and competitive next season. Suddenly the Bengals would be the odds on pick to win the AFC Central in 2026.

They havent won a playoff game since Obama was president and guess they finally had enough

It’s tough to lead an organization for so long without fresh injection of energy. But Tomlin is tied with Beli for most consecutive winning seasons as HC and they only sit behind Landry who coached for some team whose name escapes me not sure if they even exist anymore…. But so much diss here.
Sounds like a courtesy offering option due to his tenure.
Tomlin is still under contract for another year, so there could be a similarity to what happened with Sean Payton when he chose to accept an offer with Denver, then the New Orleans Saints were entitled to compensation as his employer. If Tomlin is offered a job elsewhere, the Steelers could be entitled to compensation as well. So, I don't think he got fired.

Buffalo won three games in the regular season against teams that made the playoffs (Steelers - 26-7, Tampa Bay - 44-32 and New England - 35-31). Buffalo lost three games in the regular season against teams that made the playoffs (New England - 20-23, Texans - 19-23 and Eagles - 12-13).
The above does not, to me, indicate that Buffalo will win exactly like they did last year (31-7 Buffalo).
I am starting to experience deja vu all over again.
After the 1997 regular season Denver advanced to its 5th Superbowl (with an 0-4 record) against the Green Bay Packers and Bret Favre. The consensus amongst multiple supposedly knowledgeable, experienced, wise folks was that Denver had no chance of winning the game.
Turned out that Denver beat Green Bay to claim the first of its three Lombardi Trophies. Denver's mental state of mind during that playoff run was essentially that everyone is underestimating us and we will surprise everyone.
Buffalo is saddled with an 0-4 Superbowl Record and has yet to show it can win the title. Going through yet another playoff season must be tough for Buffalo to deal with as a loss in any of the next three games will simply prolong Buffalo's long suffering agony.
In summary, anyone who thinks Saturday's game is a lock victory for Buffalo or for Denver is deluded.
I have no clue who will win.
I am looking forward to the game and I think it will be a good one.
Anyone who underestimates Denver may be in for some major disappointment.
If I was a fan of a team I would rather face Nix over Allen every time. Nix is a roller coaster where he can be a stud and then just be god awful. For every game he puts it together the whole game hell have a bad one as well

I don't fear Buffalo, especially in Foxboro, I sincerely mean that
I'd rather face Buffalo than Denver
I am not sure we will get by Houston to be honest,
And Joe you know I like you, I'd never show disrespect interacting with you I just really believe this is the weakest Buffalo playoff team with Allen as QB.
It's not Nix, it's the Denver D, hard running game and Sean Payton is a far better coach than the the angry leprechaun
You dont have to convince me to not like Nix that much. Dudes a roller coaster where he can make the best play or the worst play. His stats looked pretty good for the season until you look at the game logs and see how many of them came from a couple games and how many games he was bad in that their defense won or just kicking field goals all day

Buffalo has 3 healthy receivers on the roster heading into the Denver game
if they win, Josh Allen is Hercules
huge loss for Houston if Nico Collins doesn't clear concussion protocol
Schefter said last night that he would be shocked if Collins plays Sunday. short week and he didnt practice yesterday. that will be a huge loss for Houston. Conversely, it looks like Gonzalez will be playing Sunday. those 2 players alone would be a huge swing.
I think it will be a low scoring game, but I am taking NE.
George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.
I for one, want Buffalo in Foxboro next week. there is the history/rivalry and I want to see the best player on the planet (Allen) in the AFC Championship game!
plus, I am a little scared of the Denver defense.
George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.
has anyone heard anything about Josh Allens health heading into Denver? He took quite a beating last weekend with both a knee injury and injury to his throwing hand. I am hoping he is fully healthy. or as healthy as possible at this point in the season
George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.
The injury rules don't apply to Allen and Mahomes, Allen gets his helmet ripped off and barely any concern about a concussion
Any injury regarding Allen will be the best kept secret this week
Harbaugh to the NYG?
I also believe it’s the weakest team in a few years but they still won 13 games. Hopefully we a rematch in Foxboro. It’s the playoffs, 2nd round. Every team is tough

Curtis Samuel is back so 4 WR’s plus 3 tight ends. My concern is Johnson, one of the best 3rd down backs in football. Buffalo missed him last week as they had to got with Gore Jr and Davis on 3rd down

My interest in the NFL and in Denver has decreased since Denver won two Superbowls in 1998 and 1999. Too much other stuff (wife, kids, work, caring for elderly relatives, etc.) reduced the time and desire I have to devote to my favorite pro sports team.
However, I do follow Denver each year and when it performs well and makes the playoffs I take a closer look at the team's performance.
The 2025 Denver team is very good defensively. In the regular season it led the league in sacks (68), pressures (285) and QB hits (164). Denver's pass defense is also pretty good. It is 7th in opponent passing yards per game (e.g., ~187.2 Yds/G) and is 2nd in Yards Per Pass Attempt (e.g., 6.1 Yds/Att).
How good is Buffalo's offensive line this year? If it is not playing at a level that provides Josh Allen with adequate protection he will be under duress during Saturday's game. Also how good is the Buffalo receiving corp?
Nico Collins missed practice again today. I believe that will rule him out for sunday. I believe that players have to participate in 2 practices: 1 non contact, 1 contact in order to make it through the protocol. Collins has not participated all week and tomorrow is their last practice before Sundays game.
George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.
Predictions for this weekend's games?
Mine (simply guesses based upon nothing specific) are:
Denver over Buffalo.
San Francisco over Seattle.
New England over Houston.
Los Angeles Rams over Chicago.
People keep pointing out Niners banged up,short on key players. But they keep on winning,so far. Should be a good game.
I just don’t see how 49ers can win but it is the NFL. Any given Sunday
