But get this: The Steelers are in with a win and a TN loss (who's playing Houston who has something to play for as far as better seeding). Not only this, but Baltimore has already announced they are sitting Jackson and some other key players. There is no way in hell Pitt deserves to be a playoff team this season. But nor do the Browns. At the end of the day, it matters not; Pitt will not beat ANY team in the postseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dollarbill44 Posted December 23, 2019 Report Share Posted December 23, 2019 What is really annoying is that if the Browns could have won yesterday (or @Pitt or @ AZ), Baltimore would need to win next weekend to secure home field, the Titans are going to lose to Houston and Indy and/or Oakland are going to win. In this scenario, a win against the Bengals would give the Browns the 6th spot via tiebreaker (conference record). Of course, they would have just gone out and laid an egg to the Bengals and miss the playoffs anyway. GD Browns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the past 2 weeks all the teams the Browns needed to lose, did lose But, of course, the Browns went full blown Brownsian, and lost both games. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their offense is so bad right now I don’t see them beating even Baltimore’s JV squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Healthy backs, and not only that, this will be the first season since Tim Couch in 2001 that we will have had the same QB start all 16 games. More evidence of the bad coaching job we have had?

More evidence of the bad coaching job we have had? When a couch severely underutilizes the red zone skills of Hunt, then I say bad coaching was indeed a major factor. And I swear at times I was watching the Huey red zone offense with similar idiotic play calls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westside Steve Posted December 27, 2019 Report Share Posted December 27, 2019 I think you are overlooking the very distinct possibility of multiple meteor or asteroid strikes on NFL cities. Just saying, it could happen. WSS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Houston will know whether they can change their seeding before their game starts at 4:25 PM. For them to have a chance to do so KC has to lose their 1 PM game to LAC. So if KC wins, HOU has nothing to gain by risking its starters. Plus if HOU then lays downs for TN, they set up KC with a much tougher, 1st-round opponent... TN.

Yea, but the bottom line is none of it really matters; who is Pitt gonna beat in the playoffs? NO ONE. The loss to the Jets was no fluke, NY, at this point, is the better team.

The Gipper Posted December 29, 2019 Report Share Posted December 29, 2019 Packers secure a first round bye. Chiefs win and Patriots loss.......pushes Pats to have to play the first week. No bye for them...and they lose home field to both Rats/Chiefs. Philadelphia leading at halftime over Giants. Win put them in....and Cowgirls would be out....but Cowboys are winning big vs. Redskins. Skins assuring they get that #2 overall pick it seems. Saints secure a first round bye. Ravens are handling Steelers at half 16-7. They lose, they are out. Titans leading Texans at half. They win or if Pitt loses, they are in. Broncos leading Raiders......who have only a pubic hair's chance of making it anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
