...they will automatically become the 3rd seed. i believe indy will hold onto that 5th playoff spot, but the 6th spot could still be a toss up.

who would you want to see miami play at dolphins stadium?

ravens: whooped us up 27-13 in our own house, and the way the defense is playing, its even better than when we played them. the only advantage might be playing a rookie qb in his first playoff game in an expected chaotic crowd in dolphin stadium.

patriots: last time we played em, we know what happened. they just spread it out and made out secondary look like children were playing out there. plus going against bill belicheck in the playoffs is gives you bad odds.

jets: they have an outside shot to get in if they lose to miami, but playing them two weeks in a row would be a treat. and beating them two weeks in a row would be like winning the lottery.

if i had to pick an order of opponents, it would be:
1. jets
2. ravens
3. patriots
 
i chose the ravens, because if we play them our team will be real focused after losing to them already this year...another reason is that out of the three teams, they probably have the worst offense, better chance for our defense to shut them down

i know our defense is much improved from that game also, but joe flacco looked like joe montana that game. it got ridiculous.
 
I don't think there would be any way for the Jets or Pats to make it if we win out and make the playoffs, the Pats could possibly overtake the Ravens for the final spot as a WC. I am not sure but it is looking like there will only be ONE AFC team in the playoffs, as Indy has one WC spot pretty much wrapped up and the Ravens have the other one right now.
 
The Jets and Ravens i think are both beatable because we could probably contain their offenses. Facing the Jets is risky because they'd have seen us 2 times already, they're a division rival so they always play us tough, but i think of those three teams you would have to say they are the least problematic.

The Ravens you worry about because it would simply be so hard to score on them. But then again Flacco is a rookie who you assume would make mistakes in his first playoff game.

Just get in.....
 
Hmm i'm the first person to vote for the Patriots. I'd love to knock them out and think they are the weakest of the three personally.

I thought the same thing up until the last couple weeks where the Jets have really struggled and Cassell has looked like Brady. I say Jests.
 
I'd prefer the Jets, but they are the least likely team to get that last wildcard.

After that I guess Baltimore, but mostly because that would mean the Pats are home watching it on TV.

If we end up facing New England, I think we can beat them. Not sure we will, but I have no doubt we could.
 
if we get in...i say the Pats...should they not make it past round 1 of the playoffs,i want our Phins to be the reason why...that's if they get in also...
 
I want the Pats again. We can and will beat them. I want to see this years series settled once and for all in the playoffs. With that said, it wont happen because the Fins will win out.
 
so if the Steelers go 11-5 and we go 11-5, they get the first round bye???

if thats so...i think id want to play the Jets or Ravens. Well this all depends how we play against the Jets in the final game. The Ravens are beatable, we made a few silly mistakes against them, and even beat them last year (1-15), but they are beatable.

Now the question is, who would u rather play in the 2nd round??? Titans or Steelers? I say Steelers. We always play pretty well against them, and I saw them against the Redskins, Ravens, Giants...they won 2 of those but looked like ****.
 
I'm still itching to get payback for the last game we had against the Pats. They tried to run up the score because they didn't think we would get the chance to play them again. It would be nice to put them in their place. Plus, it is tough to beat an NFL team two times in a row in back to back weeks.
