Crazy to me, I was convinced we'd get the Sunday afternoon game. Not sure how we beat out KC for the primetime slot

Arguably the last matchup ever between Brees and Brady* was deemed to be a better night draw.

And, it's just cruel to make LA play at night in Green Bay.  It could be -40 by game time.  😉

Maybe KC asked for a daylight game?  No idea. 

 

Actually, best guess is CBS didn't want to give up Mahomes.  That game is CBS.  Bills game is NBC.

The 2 NFC games are staying on Fox.

WTF happened?  Was recording it to watch on delay but it stopped recording right after the 1st play from scrimmage.  Next thing shows Cleveland 28 - Pittsburgh 0 at e end of 1.

The Bills are good.

Steelers' first four drives:

Fumble - Browns recovered for touchdown

Interception - Browns scored touchdown on resulting drive

Punt - Browns scored touchdown on subsequent drive

Interception - Browns scored touchdown on resulting drive

 

Really is impressive ... -ly bad.

Put the Fork in the Steelers.  They are done.  Bring on the Ravens. 

NFC (Old Guard) 

Brady (TB) age 43

Brees (NO) age 42

Rodgers (GB) age 37

Goff (LA) age 26 - 1st overall in 2016 draft

Strange, all two word name cities

vs.

AFC (New Guard)

Mahomes (KC) age 25 - 10th overall in 2017 draft (with our pick)

Allen (BUF) age 24 - 7th Overall in 2018 draft

Jackson (BAL) age 24 - 32nd overall in 2018 draft

Mayfield (CLE) age 25 - 1st overall in 2018 draft

I'm impressed with the ex-Bills backup QBs turned coaches

Frank Reich created a master game plan and nearly beat us

Alex Van Pelt has been doing a great job as the Cleveland OC this season.  My guess is he had a huge impact on Baker Mayfield. 

The 3 & 4 seeds lost in both the AFC and NFC.  

Lamar vs Allen is great, but how much better would it have been if they didn't re-seed and Buffalo was playing Cleveland for a right to play in the AFC championship.

Ravens DB's are weak, they leave a lot in the middle open playing zone. Allen will exploit this.

Their front 4 are good at the pass rush, I expect a big battle on the line trenches.

Their pass game flows with Jackson's ability to scramble, much like Josh. Their receivers are nothing special. Their run game is similar to the Colts imo.

Weather, if the projection holds light winds, light snow, heavily favors Buffalo. Contain Jackson and it's game over for Baltimore.

Buffalo 34 - Baltimore 24

Bills advance.
