The NFL Playoffs

I know that a lot of Bills fans weren't even alive the last time their team was in the playoffs, but come on...

Act like you been there before.

No, they have had a miserable existence like the browns but not as bad, they have no reason to cheer lol
 
Keep in mind I have family in Massachusetts. I am up there once a year.
My wife is from Massachusetts and I have family and friends that are Pats fans. My wife has Ravens merchandise, which is awesome. Totally pisses them off. She hasn’t totally converted, because she does still wear her Pats stuff on occasion, but not as frequently.

Same with my wife. She is a full convert though.
Both my brothers in law are cool, but some of their friends and just about everyone else up there....
Iesh...
 
I like the Jaguars chances of upsetting the Steelers, but man would it be nice to see the Titans somehow, in any way upset the Pats on Saturday.

I really wish the Steelers and Jaguars were playing before the Pats and Titans because I want to cheer for the Titans but not if Steelers beat the Jaguars. Last thing I want is Steelers in the Super Bowl.

My sentiments exactly.

At least whoever wins ... okay at least New England will have an extra day to prepare. I think Mike Tomlin was complaining about that...
 
I don't know if that one extra day matters all that much in the big scheme of things.
 
Steelers may be without CB Artie Burns who injured his knee in practice. It was a non contact injury
 
Divisional Round Preview:

Falcons @ Eagles: Saturday kicks off with the battle of the birds in Philadelphia when the Atlanta Falcons face off against the Philadelphia Eagles. This is the first time a number one seed has actually been an underdog as the Falcons are favored by a Field Goal as of this writing. Rightfully so as not many expect them to get to the NFC Title Game with Nick Foles under center. Can Jim Schwartz and that Eagles defense do enough to keep Matty Ice in check for Foles to win the game or are the Falcons on their way to a second straight NFC Championship Game?

Titans @ Patriots: History will be made as the age gap between Tom Brady(40) and Marcus Mariota(24) is the biggest age gap between playoff starting quarterbacks in NFL History. DeMarco Murray is out once again this week, which while it means Derrick Henry can shine. I think the Titans needed both as a way to control TOP and keep the Brady Bunch on the bench as much as possible. To keep the Patriots from going to their 7th straight AFC Title Game, the Titans are going to need a miracle but it's very unlikely.

Jaguars @ Steelers: The Steelers will have AB back, but they may have lost another AB in Artie Burns. If that's the case, they are lucky Blake Bortles is the Jaguars QB. Many people in the media like to talk how Brown managed 10 catches for 157 yards in the week 5 game, great fantasy stats sure, but he was held out of the end zone and the Steelers only put up 9 points. Without Shazier in the lineup you have to wonder how much damage Fournette could do this time around after rushing for 181 yards and 2 TDs in Week 5 with Shazier playing. The last time these two met in the playoffs, the Jaguars beat the Steelers.

Saints @ Vikings: As the Vikings prepare to stay home through the Super Bowl, a tough task known as the New Orleans Saints arrive in town. After a 3 game sweep of the Panthers, the Saints are looking to avenge their week one loss to the Vikings and prevent them from being the first team to be the actual home team in the Super Bowl. Can the Vikings defense slow down Alvin Kamura and the passing offense of Drew Brees? Can Case Keenum step up in the biggest game of his career and lead the Vikings to their first NFC Championship Game since 2009, where well they lost to the Saints.
 
Titans patriots is the only matchup that seems completely overmatched but I’m still not sure I’ll be of the right mind to watch any of these games - week 17 still really hurts me lol - I might have to watch Vikings saints though just to see who I’m gonna be rooting for for the next 3 weeks
