^this. After living in Florida for the past 30 years, anything below 70 has me freezing my butt off [Reply]
So it looks extremely likely that Tyler Lockett is out against the Chiefs for next week. That could be huge as far as what Spags will do. Double Metcalf and pack the box I guess. [Reply]

Know who else wouldn't be brimming with confidence? The Bengals and their fans. No way they'd feel very confident about coming out of Arrowhead with their 4th straight win vs Mahomes and second straight in the playoffs. [Reply]
Not sure the 1 seed is that huge. You probably don't want to drop farther than 2 though so you get at least 2 home games.
Interested to see how it works out over the years if they don't keep tinkering with the format.
Something like 75-80% of 1 and 2 seeds have won the SB, so people assume it's the bye week that's so damn important.... my theory is there's just so little parity at the top, 2 seeds will have it just as easy of a time as they did before, outside of players staying healthy.
And you look at some of the awful 2 vs 7 games, like the Chiefs/Steelers scrimmage, and I can't really say playing the extra game mattered much. [Reply]
I want the 1, but 2 may not be a terrible place to be either. As it stands now, NE would come to Arrowhead, and then the winner of Miami/Baltimore. The weather in Buffalo might be brutal, but both teams would have to deal with it. [Reply]
