the only good thing about the Texans game is that A.Johnson will play but again, I dont see the Texans playing hard enough to KO the Titans. So yeah, the playoff hope will be over just before or after our game is finished.
Disagree, the Texans are playing to win, every last player said that. They also blew out that the Titans 41-7 last time, but obviously that doesnt mean much now. Letting a division rival into the playoffs is a big deal, do you think the Jets would ever lay down for the Patriots or Dolphins, knowing you would have to play them in the first round the next week ? hell no
No team wants to go into the playoffs on a 3 game slide with the last game you lost being to a team you are going to face again. I think the Texans are going to play to knock out the titans and hope the broncos/raiders/nyj come to houston next week. Yes, I think Houston would love to play us with Foster and Daniels.
Yeah need TEN, CIN, and DEN or OAK to lose. Oh and we need to the real difficult thing and win :breakdance:
Agreed. I think they will play hard for a half or so. No way they risk injuries later in the game. The game means nothing for them. I'd like to think otherwise, but because I want it to happen doesn't mean it will.
I see us beating the Phags, CIN and OAK losing but Tennessee will get an uninspired Houston team and were done. Nobody to blame but ourselves. Hope I'm wrong on TEN/HOU.

I think the Jets will have a very difficult game. I hope they win, just for the sake of finishing strong. I'm afraid they are not going to get help from the other teams however, esp. Tenn.
It's not a crazy feeling at all. The Bengals have beaten the Ravens in Cincinnati 5 out of the last 6. I think they're very likely to beat them.
I didn't know that. :sad: Why is no one talking about that game? It seems like becasue Baltimore has something to play for everyone thinks it is a sure win for Baltimore. Cincinnati at home will not be an easy win for a team that has struggled on the road and lost @Tennessee, @Jacksonville, @Seattle, and @San Diego. Didn't the Texans lose to him as well?
That was before the Bengals had a rookie QB. Look at the list of teams the Bengals have lost to this year. All very good 3-4 defenses. I'd be surprised if the Bengals won.
The Ravens offense has been really shaky the last 5 weeks or so and the Bengals are a top 10 defense that is playing at home. They've only allowed 17 pts a game at home this year and never more than 24 in their house. I think the Ravens are going to lose.
