It would give Miami an outside shot at ruining the Colts' perfect season.

What the hell am I thinking? Miami isn't in the mix.

IMO the Bengals think they can beat the Jets with their starters and will throw out their scrubs to get the chance to beat them with their rested starters in the wild card.

Heh, what the hell was I thinking? They blew it to the Texans today.
According to NFL.com they're still "in the hunt".

What the hell am I thinking, redux:

Indy lost today.

You can sure miss a lot when Raised on Riots causes a commotion.

Look at the late-season AFCW records.... the last 6 games are:

6-0 Sandy Eggo
3-3 Raiders
2-4 Broncos
1-5 Chiefs

Lately the Broncos have sucked just as bad as KC & Oakland. Right down in the slime of the gutter with the Chiefs & Raiders. Slopping around in the basement with the worst teams in the league. Yeah... they're done...

I think the Colts ****ed everything up by letting the Jets win yesterday.

There are so many ways to measure how crazy the AFC wild card playoff picture is heading into the final week and how dangerous it is to assume anything. Consider:

1. There could still be an eight-way tie at 8-8.
2. The Jaguars, even after their loss Sunday, are technically still alive for the fifth seed. The Dolphins also remain barely alive at 7-8.
3. Only one of eight AFC wild card contenders were eliminated this week: the Titans.

While there are a lot of confusing scenarios, we know this much: the Ravens and Jets are both in the playoffs with victories in Week Seventeen.

The Broncos are in the best position after that. If Denver beats Kansas City at home, the Broncos just need two other things to happen.

The Broncos need the Ravens or Jets to lose, and need to not finish in a two-way tie with the Steelers for the final spot; Pittsburgh beat them head-to-head. If it's a three or four way tie, Denver's superior conference record would take over.

The Broncos, then, are in the odd position of wanting the 8-7 Texans to win because Houston could negate Pittsburgh's advantage over Denver in a head-to-head tiebreaker.

Got all that?

So basically, we need the Jets and Ravens to win next week. But in all likelihood, the Jets will lose, so in that case we need the Steelers to win and the Texans to lose to the Patriots.

Yeah, without even playing them... Peyton and the Colts screwed Denver again.

No, actually. They ****ed everything up because now the Broncos have a better chance at the playoffs because of the number of 8-7 teams.

Not really... Denver now needs help with a win. PIT winning already created 1 issue, but the Jets weren't really a factor until they won yesterday and Miami lost.

It would suck to have to sit around discussing the playoff chances of teams other than your own.

It's probably worse to sit on a bad teams message board and talk shit all year and have that rival team knock your gods from the sky.ROFL
Especially when that said rival team sucks something awful,but holds your playoff hope in its hands.
