AFC Playoff Picture 2024

[Blitzkrug]

Cincy opened the door for themselves but it's still a tall hill to climb.

They need to win next week against a Steelers team that will still be playing to try and win their division, a Denver loss playing against the Chiefs B team + Miami dropping one of their last two.

With Tua likely done for the year with a hip injury, they'll definitely get one of those, it's the Denver game that's going to be the hard one.

They also need a Colts loss.

Since LAC faces LV, PIT will need a win it looks like to secure the #5 seed and face Houston in round 1 (assuming BAL wins its game here).

Not really a lot to update...

Kansas City is #1

Buffalo is #2.

Baltimore is #3 if they win, Pittsburgh is #3 if PIT wins and BAL loses, and BAL is #3 if they both lose.

Houston is #4

Pittsburgh is #5 if PIT and BAL wins, Baltimore is #5 if PIT wins and BAL loses, and the Chargers are #5 if LAC wins and PIT loses. if PIT and LAC both lose than PIT is #5.

The Chargers are #6 unless PIT loses and LAC wins, in which case PIT is #6

Denver is #7 if they win, Miami is #7 if DEN loses and MIA wins, and CIN is #7 if CIN wins and MIA and DEN lose. If all 3 lose Denver is #7.

I don't kbnow who said it...it was Troy Aitkin or Tony Romo...that the 1 thousand yard Rushing is not the high mark anymore...once upon a time when Jim Brown played and they played 12 game regular seasons was 1 thousand yds considered good/great now 1 thousand yd rushing is so so

1,000 yards in 17 games is like 59 yards per game. Game has evolved where you want 100 yards per game from your RB combined in rushing and receiving. Be it a bell cow or via multiple backs.

One of the possibilities for next week is Baltimore - LA which would be Harbaugh Bowl 2 in the playoffs !
