First post updated. As others have pointed out, Jets need to win the next 2. Steelers, Bengals, or Chiefs must lose 1. If the opposite happens next week, we are mathematically out (I think).
I'm going back and forth between it's in the bag and we're hopelessly screwed. It's like listening to Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis argue in my head. I wish Dean Martin was the "it's in the bag" voice.
Overrated fraud defense Denver is. Up 27-10 just before the half you have to seal that game up. Especially with Pitt's shitty secondary. But nope, with some aiding by officials Pitt got back in the game and won.
I don't see the Broncos loss tonight as a huge deal for us....had the steelers lost we woulda still had to win out to make playoffs because if we and steelers finished 10-6, they would be in over us...now with Denver losing there is a 3rd team added to the mix that needs to lose 1 of 2 for us to make it....either way it's still a win out situation for us to make it and I firmly believe between steelers Chiefs and Broncos 1 of those 3 teams will lose 1 game! Keep the faith everyone! Let's just beat the pats!
Ok, so for next week. Jets take care of business against the Pats....a tall order Ravens beat the Steelers at home.....almost impossible. They can't stop a cold Browns beat KC in KC.....hard but not totally out of the question. Cinci beats Denver in Denver....not likely with 2 sorry ass QBs facing each other. It's going to be one hell of a w/e HERE IS TO Johnny football having the game of his young career.
For all the gamblers out there...I suggest you do what I'm going to do: Take the Jets Broncos Steelers and Chiefs all straight up the next 2 weeks in a parlay (roll the winnings from week 16 into week 17 parlay) Therefore if we win out and miss the playoffs Atleast you'll make a ton of money If we lose and don't get in I can shrug and take it but 11-5 would hurt alot
These games today took all the wind out of my sails. So depressing. I'm going to watch the Jets-Dallas game again to cheer me up. If that doesn't work, I still have Jets-Giants!
