The Cleveland Browns, Buffalo Bills and Tampa Bay Buccaneers have won playoff games. So far, 2021 might be stranger than 2020.

Norm!

Happy for any Brown fans this has to feel good.
I don't think they'll be competitive next week, but they are a team that has the capability to surprise.

That game was like the Division game against Jacksonville by the Steelers 3 years ago. Jacksonville had a 21 nothing lead early in the game and Pittsburgh was chasing the rest of the game. In the end it got close but Jacksonville lead the entire game. Pittsburgh put up lots of yards and points...but were never really in the game.
In their last three losses the Steelers have given up 36, 45 and now 48 points. I wonder if they don't seriously consider a change in direction and philosophy as the Franchises mantra has been tough defence and being able to gring out games on the ground. Not throwing for 469 & 500 yards in losing efforts.

48-37 is another scorigami! No backdoor cover this weekend though, really the only game that had a chance was the WFT-Bucs game.

Isn't this better from your side of things? The Saints have kind of obliterated the Bucs lately.

Yep, but if they do win and Packers beat the Rams, I don't like the Saints odds of going up to Lambeau and getting a W. However, I do like the Bucs odds of knocking off GB, given what happened between them already this year.
Had Seattle won, the divisionals would have been: GB/TB, and NO/SEA. Was envisioning Tampa pulling the upset and Saints getting by Seattle, then have the Bucs come to the Superdome for the NFCCG.

Past is the past though. Browns had been owned by the Steelers, and even when they did win this year it was a struggle against the Steelers backups. Bucs are playing much better than Seattle is, even if they've struggled against the Saints. Saints would rather have the Seahawks I'm sure, Seahawks were poor for weeks before their elimination.

The Chiefs A Squad is going to beat the crap out of the B team.

I mean Ben totally melting down counts for at least 28 of the 48. Browns definitely have a chance because they can run the ball and rush the passer. But it's the Browns, they'll top the Texans last year by jumping out to a 31-0 lead and losing 62-38.

In a season where the home team was sub 0.500 in regular season the playoffs lived up to that billing too. Road teams went 4-2 (would have expected 3-3 based on regular season).
This week I suspect only the Ravens realistically have a shot at winning on the road.

I think the Browns have a shot (albeit a small one) because they can score every possession and control the clock.
I don't think they will win though.

The browns win by basically doing what the Texans did last year and actually having a good running game to prevent the Chiefs from catching up. But that also requires the Chiefs to take the first half off, which you probably shouldn't count on.
A Bills / Chiefs AFC championship has potential to be a really good watch. Frankly I don't hate any of the remaining teams and would be pretty okay with any of them winning. I guess it'd be nice if someone other than the Chiefs did just for novelty and variety.

I mean if novelty is the criteria then you have to root for the Bills or Browns. Everyone else has a Super Bowl at some point.
