that was a huge game for me, in my other (cash) fantasy league...volek and bennett dominated, and together w/ the 2TD Buffalo defense, beat my opponent; i needed nop one else from my roster. yeah for me, onto the super bowl.

Still, momentum, confidence, and luck are good things to have going for you this time of year, and they have all three big time right now... If they beat the Steelers in week 17, which is pretty likely, they will be going into the playoffs on a 8 game win streak, and will without a doubt be the hottest team in the league.

Even if the Bills somehow beat the Steelers, there is no way they could beat the Pats or Colts in the playoffs.

Well I don't really know a dang thing about football anymore... but it seems like the way they are playing right now they could beat anyone.

The Bills are playing well lately, but the only decent team they have beaten this year is the Jets. Still, winning 7 of their last 8 is damn good, I don't care who you play, and they have scored a LOT of points doing it. I agree that no one wants to play the Bills right now.

That was a hell of a stretch for a cutdown, but nice try. Shouldn't you be shining a diamond or something??? :D

I kinda agree and disagree. I don't know if the Bills can hang with the Colts, but they match up pretty well against the Steelers and Pats. Look at how the Pats and Steelers are built; play tough defense, run the ball, eat up the clock, setup the pass, and put your team in a position to win the game without your qb having to throw 40+ times a game. The Bills are doing that right now, just how the Panthers did it last year. I see the Steelers and Colts going far into the playoffs for sure. I'm still up in the air with the Pats and Eagles. I don't know how long the Pats can survive with the defensive injuries they've had. I know they've survived this season so far, but the Steelers owned them earlier this season, but still... The Eagles? It ALL depends on TO and how well he recovers.

well the pats didn't have dillon (ie, their running game) against the steelers. the steelers have a history of choking in the playoffs. we'll see how they do w/ a rookie QB at the helm.

just heard that terrell owens is gonna have surgery. not good news for eagles fans.

I just read that myself. I still think my Eagles should win the Superbowl, but the Steelers are deadly. I disagree with Echo that the Bills are the hottest team in the league. How about the Chargers?

Okay, both Pats and Steelers had a couple injuries, it's a good thing they play the game.

Eagles: no way they will make it to the SB without Owens. With Owens out, their back Westbrook automatically becomes their best receiver.

Does anyone think Rothlesburger will hit the wall within the next few weeks?

Something about the Falcons just doesn't do it for me, I can't put my finger on it though.

The Chargers secondary will keep em from advancing. Everything else looks really good.

It's a shame Heap was out for so long, imagine what Baltimore's record would be like if Boller had him the entire season.

I really like Sundays, it's the best during the Fall and Winter.

I've been a Steelers fan for almost 30 yrs, and big Ben has brought a lot of excitement. I think much of what has happened this season has to do w/the "other" (quite substantial) talents on the team working together and supporting BR's efforts. I am worried about the rest of the season though. A supermajority of the Pittsburgh wins this season have been against losing teams. Though they did beat both the Eagles and the Pats, they have had a lot of close games against mediocre teams.

I'm just glad they're kickin' butt, and glad it looks like the playoffs will have some real contention this year. . . not every season offers that kind of excitement.

This week, Steelers go against Baltimore, the only team to beat Pittsburgh this year, and the Patriots beat Baltimore, if it comes down to that and if the Steelers lose and Patriots finish with only the one loss, the AFC teams will have to go through Foxboro in the playoffs.
