    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.

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

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

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

    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.

    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?

    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.

    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!

    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.

    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.

    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.
