Let's Talk About the Steelers (Christmas Day Game)

[RunKC]

Have to take care of business on Wednesday. If we don’t we go to a desperate Denver team on the road who I think are going to be in a “win and you’re in” scenario bc I think the Bengals beat them.

In that scenario the game will 100% be on prime time.

These guys know this and obviously they want the rest rather than playing against Denver on the road in their first playoff game.

You're right and at the same time I feel really good entering this game.

Pitt is really trending in the wrong direction. If we can just not allow Russell's five or so moonballs to hit at a high clip, we will win this game with relative ease in terms of how it looks on the field. There's a bigger gap between these two teams than meets the eye.

But Pitt I am sure is excited to be back at home. We aren't gonna be able to sleepwalk through it.

No disagreement that the Brocos will probably be desperate, but I'm pretty sure at this point that primetime game will be Lions/Vikings for the 1 seed in the NFC (unless the Vikings lose on Sunday). That game is the real draw of the weekend. And it could also be Seahawks/Rams if the Rams slip up against the Cardinals and that game is also for the division.

All of the games next week are possible flex games for 1/4 or 1/5. I think in that situation they’d probably flex us to the Saturday prime time window
