Week 12 Rooting Interests

There is a good chance that our first match up in the playoffs is an away game against the winner of the AFCN. Our defense matches up pretty poorly against the Ravens rushing attack (as evidenced by the last 3 match ups in a 15 month period). So, I could see people hoping that the Steelers win the division and the Ravens miss altogether. I mean, somebody has to win the division there...

I’m more concerned about making the playoffs at this point, than who we’d play tbh

Why would you want Pitt to win any games? Knock any AFC contended down at this point in time unless they’ve run away with their division. 

Would you rather play Steelers on the road or Ravens on the road?

 

Seems like a pretty easy choice to me.

I’d rather play anyone on the road vs no one.

 

At this point, we have no H2H vs Pitt although we do against Balt so I could see a case for wanting Pitt to win. Personally I don’t see any point in trying to worry about who you’d play, where or in what round, until you know that you’re going to make the playoffs in the first place. Therefore I’d like Pitt to lose because it’s very possible they start dropping games and are in the WC content with Buffalo. 
 

But to answer your question, Pitt on the road imo 

 

Pitt still has Ravens x2, Lions, Bills, divisional foe CLE and Miami. They could go 9-8 easy.

Belt 2 ass Sunday on all teams ahead of Buffalo.

Want the Chiefs to lose because I hate them (and don't want them going to their 4th-straight SB, and a Lions win because I like the Lions.

Hoping for favorable outcomes for the Bills doesn't matter.

Because someone has to win the AFCN, and I rather it be Pittsburgh than Baltimore, especially if it means the Ravens are boxed out of the dance altogether. I think going to Baltimore and expecting to beat them again after stealing one at home via a miracle comeback is a lot to ask. To me they are the tougher matchup.

I think these refs in the Colts, chiefs game are forgetting who they pay for

I'm marginally ashamed to say it but my week 12 rooting interests are for Joe Brady to be fired.

 

It's 3 days after the Houston loss and I wish it had happened by now but Ken Dorsey was fired on Tuesday November 14th so it could still happen.

Couldn't agree more. Seems like a good position coach to have, but he is clearly in over his head adapting his gameplans to the strengths of our guys, weaknesses of opponents, making adjustments fast enough or just generally calling plays that make any sense. Even my wife who doesn't understand much is so annoyed at the d*mn Shakir screens behind the LOS multiple times a game. It's either stupidity or arrogance to keep ramming a square peg into a round hole. Just not sure which one.

We would just be promoting an intern. 

On the original question, if the Bills can't win, then I just want the chiefs and patriots to lose.

You should be rooting for the jags to win 

[GolfandBills]

You can convince me 8-10 different teams could make it to the Super Bowl.  Don’t remember ever thinking that.

Well we were asked our rooting interests and that's mine!

Don't care at this point. 

 

I guess NYJ, IND and NE to help us get a WC... But we're probably 1 and done against most match-ups.

I know this won't go over well but I wouldn't be surprised if we missed altogether. There is nothing that gives me confidence that we'll make a WC spot. Injuries and inconsistent player/ coaching has created where we are.
