The Kansas City Chiefs are a better team than the Steelers and several other teams that made the playoffs.

You obviously don't watch the Chiefs games. Or maybe your Tivo only works when their offense is on the field. Their defense is mediocre at best. The best thing that happened to the Chiefs this year was Priest Holmes getting hurt.

Steelers should have beaten Dallas back in 1996 SB - Neil O'Donnell? What a joke.

Still not as impressive as Flutie's drop kick.

Considering what the Steelers have done with homefield advantage the last several years, maybe playing all the playoff games on the road will improve there chances .

I'm glad I'm not a KC fan.

It has to be the MOST frustrating team to root for. I watched Elway spoil their chances several times and really felt sorry for their fans.....well....kind of.

Seriously, you're right. KC got better and Indy hit the mud.

Go Broncos!

The Pats have been alive for a few weeks. I'm beginning to develop a pair of football rules of thumb:

"If Miami really, truly has to, they can usually beat the Patriots."

"After losing to Miami, the Patriots will take it out on the rest of the NFL."

Miami had their starters, while the pats were playing second-string with our third string QB. I would much rather have an 11-5 record than a 10-6, so I was peeved that Brady and co. wasn't in.

I have more games in mind than just yesterday's.

You may remember the Dolphins ending the Pats' run at a perfect season last year.

As a Chiefs fan I know that Marty's teams will break your heart.

The Steelers offense is at best average. They might beat the Bengals but against the Broncos and or Cllts they will be toast.

  1. Marty NEVER sleeps.
  2. Didn't have much to add, apart from observing that even though he had a good runback, Randle-El is STILL an idiot.

I suffered through what John Elway did to Marty's teams in the 90's. I like the Broncos chances in the playoff chase. So uphold the honor of the AFC West and WIN.

Not last year. The Steelers beat them (badly) around mid-way through the season when the Pats were on a 20+ game win streak.
