The Broncos are a top tier team. They may not be playing their best right now but if they get it together in time for the playoff games I see no reason why they couldn't beat any AFC team to get to the superbowl.

Also I don't think the Patriots are as unbeatable as most people think. Yes, they are going to be tough as hell to beat at home, but I can see a few teams upsetting them in the playoffs (Colts, Broncos, and maybe even the Steelers if they get their shit together). I mean just look at Green Bay they weren't at home last week, but everyone thought they were unbeatable and they got beat by the Bills.

...who exactly was this "everyone?" I don't remember anyone saying Green Bay was unbeatable, especially after narrowly beating the Falcons at Lambeau.

Anyway, just stopping by to tamper expectations, since apparently Pot Roasts' guarantee has made us all go crazy. The playoffs, especially in recent years, have been the mother of all crapshoots. No one's even clinched a secured seed in the postseason yet. Let's at least wait until the playoffs are actually set before we start guaranteeing Super Bowl appearances.


But that would take all the fun out of it...

Are you all fired up for tonight's game? I'm calling it right now: Team that loses tonight will not make it to the playoffs!

EDIT: Just now (6 p.m.), I realized it is not Thursday... I was convinced it is Thursday the whole day... lol

Perhaps I shouldn't have said "everyone", but most people thought Green Bay was the best team in the league after beating the Patriots a few weeks ago. Most people thought they would win the rest of there games and secure homefield advantage throughout the playoffs even after there game with the Falcons.
