Best AFC 'wildcard hopeful' win today?

I have to admit that I do giggle when the Lions and Head Coach Smeagol lose in such a ridiculous fashion. I wanted to Colts to lose for obvious reasons, but was very impressed with the manner in which they stole a victory from the Lions. I couldn't really keep track of the game too closely as I was driving, but I had written them off when they were down 12 with about 3 minutes left. Great job by Andrew Luck & company. Nonetheless, it was a game I felt the Colts had a good chance to win from the start. The Steelers, on the other hand....

Without coming out & saying it, I didn't think the Steelers had a chance in Baltimore. In retrospect, I should have known better considering how the Ravens have struggled of late. Still, they were unbeatable at home. Were. It's a lesson that many here will refuse to admit, but you don't ever count out the Steelers. Too many veterans who have been through too many big games to simply roll over. Yeah, they may stumble at times - 8 turnovers?!? - but their bounce-back game was typical Steelers.

Hats off to these teams for big road victories. It looks like it will be a fun final month of the season.

Be honest... did you truly think that you'd be mentioning the Colts and "playoffs" this season? I know I wasn't! I seriously thought the Colts were going to win like 5 games this season.

I think the whole TEAM has been impressive! Luck is the QB, but the whole TEAM has stepped up - more than anyone anticipated. I'm actually very impressed with this Colts team. Not only for their tenacity, but also for their ability to play like a TEAM in such a short period of time.

Believe it or not, the real reason the Bengals have won the last 4 games is that they've been playing like a TEAM too! If Marvin and Co. can keep that idea in the heads of the Bengals, I think the Bengals can do damage in the playoffs.

Of course... not as much damage as the Colts!

Holy ****, you have an overwhelming and annoying need to be validated.

Rank 'em in order if you want to. Not really a part of this thread, but, looking at the Ravens remaining schedule, I can see a complete collapse ahead. Beware Ravens fans.

Bengals tried all day to lose this game and they pulled it together just in the nick of time. Thanks to the defense which didn't give up a TD. I think that's 2 TDs given up by this D in the last 4 games. Pretty sweet. Colts got lucky that Detroit choked and eased off with the prevent D wich only prevented them from winning. I'd think the most impressive win was the Steelers @ Ravens w/Batch but i'm too ****** off at the Ravens for losing to admit it outright, so give me your reasons why you agree or disagree.

Steelers.....never thought old Charlie Batch would pull that one off. Tough game for them, hated seeing them win....... but much respect.

Ah... I wasn't talking to you.

Believe it or not, I've had decent conversations with 34 on this very forum. He and I have disagreed on A LOT, so if you think I'm kissing his butt - I'm not!

As for your above comment... you're not overwhelming, you're just annoying.

Actually a woman's brain is like a waffle so it is crowded..

If Ben is able to come back against SD, this may well be the last game Batch will play in his career. So ending your 15 year career with a W, yeah that would be emotional, especially when it was against the Ravens.
