Re: 2017 AFC Wild Card Round

I’m picking the Chiefs and Bills to win these games. Jags looked like crap the past two weeks. Chiefs / Titans who knows , it’s at arrowhead so go Chiefs.

Re: 2017 AFC Wild Card Round

I'm not sure why we're all cutting bait on Jacksonville. They lost to red-hot SF out there and Tennessee without playing their starters. I get the whole Bortles thing but the rest of their team should be good enough to beat Buffalo at home you would think.

They played most of the starters unless they were already hurt.

The defense shut them down except for the 1 long screen pass to Henry. The offense was bad, but the play calling didn't look good and the WRs played terrible.

They should handle the Bills.

I think all 4 of the AFC teams are variably good with the Chiefs and Jags having the highest ceiling. They can play and beat the best teams in the NFL, as they’ve shown.

Bills drawing Jags is my preference over Chiefs, but I can see JAC spanking us. They’ve embarrassed good defensive teams with questionable offenses this season. Really just hoping Bad Blake Bortles shows up. Not sure if that’ll save us if Fournette finds his groove.

I like the Titans a lot but they’ve been underwhelming a lot this season especially towards the end. Good. Gimme the team that people are low on. I know Chiefs had a very 2002 Raiders year, started great, sank to .500, then took care of business to make the playoffs. I hope they take care of work this week so we can see a Chiefs/Steelers rematch.

Just insane to see Buffalo in the playoffs. It’s been so long I forgot it was even possible. Still in a state of shock.

My picks: AFC South reigns supreme, Jags beat Bills 37-14, Titans upset Chiefs 23-20.

Only way Titans win is if they can run the ball. They have proven time and time again that if you force Marcus to pass you will win the game.

Re: 2017 AFC Wild Card Round

Regarding Jacksonville i'm just not sure if Bortles can play well after the last two weeks of stinking out the joint. 5 INTs over 2 games is not a good stat. I do worry about Fournette shredding the Bills defense but i'm hoping that the Bills can play solid ball control offense.

I see the ESPN FPI thing has the Jags as 82% chance winners which I think is a complete joke. IMO this game is a toss up with a couple variables on both sides that could make it a blowout for either Jacksonville or Buffalo.

Re: 2017 AFC Wild Card Round

Jags/Bills has a "first to 17 wins" type of feel to it. Still crazy to think that Peterman decision didn't bite them in the ***.

Titans/Chiefs should be decent to watch, I guess.

Re: 2017 AFC Wild Card Round

These games don't really excite me. I think the best chance we have at an upset out of the 4 games this weekend is the Titans beating KC. KC is favored by quite a bit, but I don't really trust them.

Jacksonville in a romp over Buffalo.

Re: 2017 AFC Wild Card Round

I haven't followed Tennessee a ton, but making the playoffs with Mariota throwing more picks than TDs is maybe more surprising to me than even the Bills making it in.

Jacksonville is heavily favored and they should be favored, but we're talking about a 10-6 team vs a 9-7 team, not 13-3 vs 8-8. I'm happy with ending the drought and I see us being the underdog for sure, but I wouldn't be surprised at all at a Bills win.

In terms of matchups, I think perhaps we drew our best - we did beat the Chiefs early in the year but that would be a hard out again. There will definitely be more Bills fans in Jax than could be in KC, as well, lol.

Re: 2017 AFC Wild Card Round

I think the Jags are getting the heavy favorite tag because well, it’s Buffalo. Remember when we gave up like 120 points in 3 games? The people who make the lines didn’t. Lol

But the bigger thing is Jacksonville’s defensive metrics are insane. Some of the best coverage by Bouye and Ramsey, a DL with a legitimate threat at every single position along the line, and I don’t know about their LB corps but Telvin Smith is really good. They have the ability to eat a team’s soul by pass rush or by coverage, which then lets the other pick up a coverage sack or an INT on an ill advised throw.

They’ve laid eggs this year too, that’s why I won’t be surprised if Buffalo pulls the upset either. I can’t tell you how much I wanna see NE in the playoffs.

Re: 2017 AFC Wild Card Round

I like Jacksonville, and Kansas City in these games.

Think "Sack"sonville's Defense is strong enough to beat a Buffalo Bill team that barely squeezed into the playoffs. Shady McCoy "may" play, but if he does there's no way he will be 100% on that Ankle.

For the Chiefs/Titans game I just like the playoff experience Alex Smith has over Mariota.
