Yeah, it is a big advantage. But you can't watch us miss kicks and XPs all season, turn the ball over on special teams, or play (2) barnburners with the Broncos, and another where the worst team in the league takes us to overtime just in recent weeks, and have confidence of us making a deep run. Inconsistency and special teams gaffes every week don't fly in the playoffs.

We've also famously lost to the Bengals 3 times in the last calendar year, and the Bills already beat us earlier in this year. Hard to claim we're their betters.

It's not crazy to think we are not some sort of runaway favorite in the AFC. Team needs to sack up and play like they can play before confidence will return.
