SoMAn Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 For the first time, 7th seed beat 2nd seed yesterday. It could happen again today. Confidence level is not high. Coming off a needed win last week and looking down the road to KC, I almost expect a letdown. I will love to be wrong. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rayray808 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 hopefully the upset of the weekend already happened yesterday in Dallas... We take care of business and the NFL gets what it wants: Mahomes vs Allen. Doesn't get any better than that! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nuiwek Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 1 hour ago, Xwnyer said: am nervous and worry that home field advantage won't exist because of the few seats that will be full. I have been concerned about Pittsburg from the onset and now with this weather we may become one dimensional. I don't know how full the stadium will be but there are at least 4 bills fans on their way from PA right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregg Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 More confident today than I would have been yesterday. The Bills will be able to throw the ball today. Yesterday that wasn't possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every year some road team upsets a home team in the Wildcard round. Last year it was Dallas ending Tom Brady's career, the year before that it was the 49ers beating Dallas, and the year before that it was the Browns winning in Pittsburgh. The Packers got that out of the way yesterday. That's why the Lions got to win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackKemp Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 I have a good feeling about today. I had a lot of dread before the Bengals game last year. I’m excited to watch this one. So I am a 10. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heavy Kevi Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 I am cautiously optimistic. I realize there is a chance we let the Steelers hang around in this one. I know the Bills defense can dominate them, but will they? Weather should not be a factor in the game, though it may have stopped some travel from Pittsburgh is my guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juno999 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Winds are fine. I'm at my brother's house who lives 5 miles from the stadium. I was just outside shoveling in a hoodie for 30 minutes. No problem.

Wizard Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 An "8" is where I am at. Confident for sure, but preparation, consistency, and smart football is even more important in playoff games. What makes it less than a 10? Tomlin is consistently prepared, and he got 10 wins in a tougher division with Kenny Pickett and Mason Rudolph. Steelers aren't nearly as talented. With that said, Steelers are a well-run franchise. Respect the Steelers. Still, we are going to win today. Go Bills! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over 29 years of fanhood Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 2 hours ago, Virgil said: I'd say I'm at a 6.5. With the wind still projected to be bad, it doesn't seem like a great passing day. I still believe we have the better overall team, but this is the type of game where fundamentals are key, to which I do believe the Steelers are more disciplined than us. As for home field advantage, I'm not sure what to expect. Like KC last night, I expect there to be a lot of empty seats. There were a lot of seats available, and who knows which fans those went to. Also, Pittsburgh is as prepared for these conditions as anyone in the league. Also, I absolutely hate when EVERYONE picks the Bills to win. Even still, we have Josh and I like him running the ball and making plays to squeeze out a win. Cook needs to protect the ball and Fournette just needs to keep it consistent. I believe we should win and think we will. But, and maybe it's the BBFS in me, I'm also very much prepared for a loss. **Update** Winds are projected at 10-15mph for the game. I’m sticking with my ratio it’s the Bills man. Confident they should win and terrified they won’t. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I was a kid watching the 90's Bills, I never got nervous in the playoffs. Always extremely confident the Bills would win. I had the exact same confidence in this Bills team until about mid-way through last season. I can't really pinpoint the moment, but it was around the Vikings game that things suddenly flipped and my brain. I started getting nervous before even regular season games, and fearing the worst. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because when you were young, you had your whole life in front of you and surely the Bills would win one sooner or later. Then it was at some point during last season that it dawned on all of us that this Josh Allen-led team might not win one after all. For me, this happened a week earlier after the Jets game. My dad died in June and he was a fan since the first AFL season. He never got to see one. I think that is the fear that all of us have. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockinon Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 My only concern is our skill position players ability to catch and hold onto the ball in this cold. Other than that, about a 9. Steelers just don't belong here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JROC INTEL Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 I was at the snowy Bengals loss last season. After watching Joe Mixon seemingly run 5-6 yards per attempt I cant help but be concerned Najee Harris can’t do something similar. That being said I think we figure it out and get the job done. Anyone have thoughts on why this won’t be like the Bengals game where we are dominated physically? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
In Summary Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 I do think turnovers matter, so win the turnover battle and avoid getting toasted on big plays and it should be a win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
