I'm so over Matt Canada already. Not that the Steelers would stand any chance today either way, but bad playcalling rarely helps.

The AFC doesn't have any significant threats to them, and their defense is actually decent, maybe even good. The offense only needing to score 21 to win every week instead of 31 makes a rather substantial difference.

Tiki Barber is making me regret watching this game in English. I wonder if SAP is available in my area.

Raiders just need to run the ball and not fumble...Denver can't stop them

Normally I would say match fixing on that Diontae Johnson fumble where he appeared to just drop the ball on the ground, but outside the over that doesn't help much.

Kudos to this Broncos-Raiders game being as bad as expected, things rarely live down to expectations.

Steelers trying hard down by 30...willing to go for it on 4th and 10...false start...take the field goal. Why?

Cause losing 30-0 is embarrassing, but losing 30-3 means a prideful loss or some such ####.

Wilson doesn't take a needless coverage sack for 13 yards on 3rd down earlier in the quarter, Myers would've made the 26 yard chip shot instead of missing the 39 yarder in tough footing.

Bears would still be behind by 2.

Actually after the Giants game which got them to 4-4 they had the hardest remaining schedule in the league at the time. They got lucky to avoid Roger's snd win a 50-50 coin toss last week. But they have not had easy games. All these teams are 500 or better if you take out their loss to K.C.

Softest schedule in the league actually belongs to the Dolphins, who would move into the 7 seed tomorrow with a win. Good on them taking advantage I guess, but if anyone is getting fat on softies it's the Dolphins. Chiefs have played the hardest schedule in the league for the whole season, not just pre/post week 8.

I'm sure losing 36-18 will mean something to them, hence why they used 3 time outs down 26 with 2:40 to go.

Not pretty but we will take the win with a COVID depleted roster. Sweeping the Broncos never gets old. That's 6 of the last 7 for the good guys.

Hey at least the garbage TD to make it 36-10 hit the over, without that useless FG it doesn't happen.

How big is next week's Bengals vs Chiefs game. I still think the AFC representative at the Superbowl is coming from the AFC South. Playoffs is all about playing good defense and running the ball, especially if you get a crappy weather game.

Eh. Above .500 is a decent measuring stick but it doesn't take much of a fan to see that aside from Dallas and SD wins they just thumped on their weak division rivals and squeaked by a Rodgers-less Packers team.

I just cant be convinced that:

GB with Love
Raiders
Cowboys
Broncos
Raiders
Chargers

Is a tough schedule whatsoever
