JBandJoeyV Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 We are officially the 6 seed. We will have to win 3 road games to make it to the superbowl. Good news is we play pretty well on the road, 6-2 this season. Simple question, do you want to play at Houston, Denver, or NE? If both Denver and NE win, and houston loses we play at Houston. If Denver loses and NE wins, we play at denver. If both Houston and Denver win or NE loses, we play at New England. Who do we match up best against?

BengalsRZ Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 I'd like to play Houston the most, New England the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigris Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 We seem to run better against 4-3 defenses. This isn't based on anything but what it seems like. I could be wrong. Just feels like we do better against a team with less LBs on the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dex Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 That's easy. Houston. They are struggling mightily right now, even though they are still the number one seed at the moment. I'm sure they will put everything into winning next week in Indy. Number one seed or having to play a wild card game? They will be desperate to win while Indy doesn't really have anything to play for. They are the five seed no matter what. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squirrlnutz Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 Houston. Pay back and JJ Watt started his streak of dominance against us in the playoffs, would be nice to shut the door on his season at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] No, we are locked into the 6 seed. I believe Baltimore is set in the 4 seed too - the top 3 can jostle around depending on what happens but we will NOT play the Ratbirds in round 1. EDIT: Nevermind, we can play Baltimore if they beat us and NE loses to MIA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orange 'n Black Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 Baltimore can ONLY get the 3 seed by beating us and getting an NE loss to Miami. Doesn't matter what Houston or Denver do. Any other scenario puts them at 4. They don't have a lot to gain but I doubt they'll be resting anyone unless it gets out of hand one way or the other in the 2nd half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easiest matchup by far. [/quote] Not sure about that, they have a great 3-4 defense, and they have a whole blueprint from today on how to terrorize our offense. I honestly think NE is our best matchup. Our defense is playing lights out, and as long as they do a reasonable job with Brady, we have a winnable game. Just need our offense to get back to form from that 4-game winning streak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
