After seeing the Packers destroy the Cowboys, I have a little more confidence in a Pittsburgh win. They are playing with house money right now and no one is giving them a chance. Buffalo on the other hand has been winning, but not dominating. The pressure is on them to win this game as many are already crowning them as the AFC Champions.

I think people are underselling Alex Highsmith and Markus Golden a LITTLE, here. Highsmith is a good player and Golden still has some juice left. It's not like the drop-off is from Watt to an off-the-street Justin Houston or Frank Clark.
The Bills should still win, but I think it's far from "no chance" territory.
