I could see one of their fans booking a flight to Cleveland for a Steelers/Browns game. ;)

AFC will have some of those WC teams eliminated for the most part today.

A lot of tough games for many 7-6 teams and Steelers/Ravens have easy looking games (but NFL)

Bills, Dolphins, Chiefs, Browns, Texans all must wins

Bills D is so legit. Rodgers 7/22 for 71 yards.

Their D line is dominant.

Bills just beat one of the best in football....their defense is fun to watch. As long as they don't keep my team out, I hope they find a way into the playoffs.

The QB fumble rule inside of 2 min is absurd.

Denver, New England and Indianapolis will win their divisions. It all depends now on the North and the wild card.

Cincinnati (9-4-1) - vs DEN, at PIT
Baltimore (9-5) - at HOU, vs CLE
Pittsburgh (9-5) - vs PIT, vs CIN
Kansas City (8-6) - at PIT, vs SD
San Diego (8-5) - vs DEN, at SF, at KC
Buffalo (8-6) - at OAK, at NE

There's a very good chance at 9-6-1, the Bengals will get the 6th seed. Both KC and SD can't both win 10, unless SD beats Denver today. Buffalo is an unlikely candidate to win 10 as they play at New England, and obviously Pittsburgh also plays KC which would impact the North too.

That's not a QB fumble rule. That is any fumble inside 2 minutes. But I agree the rule is dumb.

They first read it as a QB rule.

If only the player can recover then only the defender who caused it should be allowed.

Dumb

The spirit of the rule is right. Guy fighting for 4th down yards, just short, can't just fumble the ball (any direction) and keep hope alive they get a first down. However, it's really stupid when it applies to the play it did in this game because it's clear that Rodgers didn't lose it on purpose and Lacy actually made a nice play to scoop it up and escape the end zone.

It's too jam-packed and everyone plays everyone. Tough to predict. The Bills just made it messier....Chargers and Chiefs could do the same this week and Chiefs vs Steelers.

What I know most is I want the Steelers to beat the Chiefs and the Ravens to lose at Houston.....I think that would get Pittsburgh in mathematically.

I hope San Fran finds a way to win today so next week vs SD will mean a lot.

Looks like Buffalo will have the benefit of playing NE in the final week and guessing it won't mean shit to NE as they have already defeated Cincy, Denver and Indy

Should only be a forward rule if any

The Steelers clinch a spot if they beat the Chiefs and the Broncos beat San Diego. They would win any tiebreaker with another 9-7 team due to AFC record.

In the end, I think it really comes down to 3 AFC North teams getting in....the order is what will go down to the final week.

I knew they had they fewest AFC conference losses of the bunch....wasn't sure if they ended 8-4 in the conference if someone could match it and then maybe win the next go to tie-breaker.

Lol nothing is easy. Their defense stinks.

If you don't believe in Karma then just watch the Jets/Titans game the last 2 plays.

1st Vick is almost tackled in the end zone but loses the ball and they call it a fumble. It was clearly a pass so the Titans coach challenges the play. They confirm and call it a forward pass and it was intentional grounding and they give the Titans a safety. By the letter of rules they shouldn't have been able to go back and give a penalty for intentional grounding. Then on the free punt the Titans dude muffed it and the Jets recovered.

I guess my understanding was wrong...that a ref said prior to reviewing the play that if he was indeed a pass the ref would have called in intentional grounding and so that's why after they reviewed the play they were able to rule intentional grounding? That makes no sense to me how they can do that.
