AFC wild card discussion

**packerd_00** · 01-03-16, 07:54 PM

I personally like Steelers and Chiefs. Is Dalton gonna be ready to go against Pitt.

**ChiLLx** · 01-03-16, 07:54 PM

Both road teams will be favorites which you rarely see. Not sure how you can trust KC and Alex Smith to lay a bunch of points in a ROAD playoff game.

They will be a fav or pk if Dalton does not play.

**Booya711** · 01-03-16, 08:01 PM

I personally could not take Cincy against Pitt. Cincy in the playoffs is an auto fade especially against the Stillers

**ChiLLx** · 01-03-16, 08:04 PM

5D opens Pit -1 vs. Cinc as a road favorite.

I'll take cincy and Chiefs next weekend

**LT Profits** · 01-03-16, 08:11 PM

Chiefs -3, Pitt -1.5

Too early for me as far as pick go.

No, McCarron starts wild card game. IF Bengals win, Dalton MIGHT be ready for divisional round.

**pimike** · 01-03-16, 08:14 PM

Should be fun

**jjgold** · 01-03-16, 08:14 PM

going to be in Vegas next weekend for the WC games...you going to be around Mike?

**GunShard** · 01-03-16, 08:16 PM

The Under on the Chiefs at Texans might be a square bet but it looks like a winner.

**LT Profits** · 01-03-16, 08:17 PM

Now I heard Dalton is confident he will play this week, conflicting earlier reports. I think if he does go, it would be against medical advice so we shall see.

**The Giant** · 01-03-16, 08:19 PM

Something doesn't feel right about an 11-5 Kansas City team having to go on the road and play a 9-7 Houston team.

Why do they even have divisions?

**FlipsideRM** · 01-03-16, 08:19 PM

I was gung ho about the steelers, but take a look at the past couple weeks. This team has a lot of holes. Cincy gets it done at home, finally

If Minnesota wins tonight, then all 4 road teams will be favored next week.

If Green Bay wins, they will be favored at home again in rematch next week and road teams will be favored other three games.

That's supposed to be abolished within a couple of years I am hearing.

Having said that, KC beats Texans by double digits.

**R.P. McMurphy** · 01-03-16, 08:26 PM

Love to see what total will be in KC gm neither offense really much to speak of and defenses playing great. All depends on lines but I won't be laying any points with Kc and the Walrus. That offense CAN be potentially scary at times, in small spurts....but c'Mon man it's still Queefs and Reid!

Total is 40.5

**Renegades** · 01-03-16, 08:33 PM

I'd rather get cincy plus money with mccaron then lay 3.5 with dalton

See Post #15, suddenly no so clear-cut.

Steelers already up to a juiced -2.5.

You should get something for winning your division. You don't wanna go on the road the first week of the playoffs? Take care of business in your division.

couple years? What are you hearing?

**Renegades** · 01-03-16, 08:43 PM

Thx LT. Im telling you everyone will be afraid to bet cincy because they choke every yr. they will win this game. Pitt beat them bad a few weeks ago in cincy. Its all lining up nicely

**Renegades** · 01-03-16, 08:44 PM

Home dogs in the playoffs are +ev

Francessa (WFAN) a few weeks ago was stating Goodell wants to explore a realignment in the playoff seedings where the team with a better record than a division winner not get screwed out of a home game if a division winner has a lesser record than a wild card.

Goodell wants to open up talks about that, I think NBA wants that too.

NBA already did it.

**DrunkHorseplayer** · 01-03-16, 09:01 PM

KC -3 all day, all night and with both fists.

If KC didn't choke away a lead at home vs Denver they would be playing a home game. We don't reward 2nd place in the division with a home game.
