    So, it's over for the Browns. 

    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.

    Maybe...

    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.

        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.

            And your favorite Derrick Henry scores his 3rd TD of the day and takes the NFL rushing title away from Nick on a 50+ yard run.

              It was Freddie that took the NFL rushing title away...not Henry.

                  Hopefully next week.   I am all about liking him rolling over the Patriots.  Sure.

                    He did tonight. That 53 yd run scored me exactly what I needed to win another $40 1st place weekend in FFL. He was my last player of the weekend and that was his last play of the day.????

                      Pretty sure I knew that... 🙂

                      Meanwhile back at the thread... turned out that multiple things we needed to happen did not... but at least PTG will be watching as well.

                        Is that applicable when you are talking about one or two "rivals"  ....or must it apply to everyone?
