Are the Patriots and Broncos a LOCK to reach the AFC Championship match?

[Big Bear]

If not who stands the best chance to prevent this matchup from happening???

Chiefs?

Chargers?

Bills?

Ravens?

Bengals?

Colts?

Da Steel curtain?

Too soon Bear, playoffs not completely set.

Although, at this point, any one of those teams could be a spoiler.

Right now, to me, Patriots vs. Broncos seems like a sucker bet.

The one consistent thing about the NFL is that is tends to surprise most people. Watch, and wait, for the surprise.

I'm never surprised anymore, unless there is no surprise, then I would be surprised as the NFL as a whole is consistently surprising. But I'm never surprised because the NFL always offers a surprise.

[GunShard]

Patriots, Broncos and Colts are Top 3 in the AFC.

[jjgold]

I doubt it it seems anybody in the NFL can win playoff games

Pitt?

[KVB]

This shift JJ is right, while we're speculating, watch out for the Colts. Luck is clutch and will eventually be rewarded for it.

Luck will win a super bowl one day.
Just not anytime soon.

[SplitAces]

not a lack by any means ...need to consider Ravens and Colts. Ravens give Pats trouble and Colts may be a tough out for Broncos.

Problem with Colts is exactly Luck, he seems to easily get over turnovers if the opposing team does not generate enough points off those. Not the case with brady and manning. We saw colts overcome huge deficit last year vs Kansas but that was because lucky fumbles and prevent defense.

[Barnes & Whine]

Colts matchup well with Broncos in recent games, however without a formidable running game, the Colts have no shot.

[broadway6]

Pats are a lock.

[lakerboy]

Bengals

[slacker00]

Ravens already proved they can roll through @DEN and @NE, that's one team that could do it again.

[Big Bear]

Bengals

so in your fantasy world its Bengals vs Saints?

[pavyracer]

Colts will beat Denver. Passing of the for torch.

[lakerboy]

so in your fantasy world its Bengals vs Saints?

No not at all. Saints vs steelers.

[garygroundwork]

I like New England

[GunShard]

Colts are capable of shocking the world.

[dumdum214]

Easily Ravens are capable of beating both those teams on the road. By far the team with the best chance of doing it

[SmittyZ28]

Flacco is always dangerous in the playoffs, do not want to see him come through foxboro. Colts D is too soft, luck is great but in the playoffs he will not be a be able to do it by himself. KC offense is too soft and Bengals are too Dalton. Denver with a running game is almost as scary as New England with a defense, if this continues I really do not see anyone winning in Mile High or Gillette

Pats #1 in scoring in the league and #8 in points against.

[dlunc3]

No not at all. Saints vs steelers.

Close

it was a joke. btw you hedging out your denver future? luck is not losing in denver next week.

[meader99]

And we're gonna see it next week.

[jjgold]

Nobodies a lock for anything because if so we would not have to work

[DrunkHorseplayer]

No guarantees in the playoffs in this day and age.

[dlunc3]

it was a joke. btw you hedging out your denver future? luck is not losing in denver next week.

No chance. Might hedge in NE.. Def not at home where they don't lose

[ThaTopMoron]

remember week 1 when the Broncos were up 24-0 and won by 7? holding on by making an "iffy" 4th down stop...

yeah, they are a lock
