Titans: Hill ran 157 yds
In playoff, teams will use this blueprint to go against the Chiefs.
Who is Hill on the Titans? Do you mean Henry?
Anyway, CP said that running on the Chiefs is not how to beat them. There was an article, with real life stats and everything, posted here before the Colts game that "proved" that narrative wrong. Go back and pull it up and read all the CP logic that was in agreement with it. :-) [Reply]

That Packers game was where Rodgers killed us with passes to his RBs. Our LBs are too slow footed for coverage. So you put in an extra DB, and they run at you. [Reply]

My mistake. It turned out the Titans ran 225 yds collectively. [Reply]

Need to do what the Texans did, double those two guys at all times. [Reply]
wk17: Pats beat fins, bills beat jets, Chiefs beat chargers, houston vs ten doesnt matter
1 - Ravens 14-2
2 - Chiefs 12-4
3 - Pats 12-4
4 - Houston 11-5
5 - Buffalo 12-4
6 - Steelers 9-7 - or whatever you want here.
You can interchange a Houston loss anywhere they just need to drop one. Pats just need to drop 2 more somewhere but i thought this was most likely. Ravens i don't think are losing anymore games although it could happen, again most likely to me that would also give the Bills an L we'd need. [Reply]

I think we would beat Houston or whoever at home off a bye.
Set up an AFC Title rematch at home against an aging QB who finally didn’t get a bye and is traveling for the second straight week.
