With Buffalo beating Cincy today the #3 is very possible. The Bengals go to KC next week and could very well lose and if the Pats win out they get the #3. Both would be 11-5 but the conference records would be 8-4 and 7-5. Jax remains #5 with it's win over Hou. Would you rather play Jax or Pit? My vote goes to Jax. so I'd rather have the #4 seed.

I want the #4 for two reasons. first I want to play jax in the first game and not Pitt (who is coming on strong like the Pats). secondly it is more foreseeable if the pats are the #4 and win the first game they will play the colts in the next game, which I would rather do than in the AFC Championship game where the colts would have a playoff game to knock the rust off.

I'd go for the #3.

Either would be fine, but I think we matchup pretty well with the Steelers. Their passing game isn't anything spectacular, and we've been great with stopping the run lately.

when you are in the play-offs be seed 3 or 4 it is the same.

and we will be ready...

Stillers or Jaguars...

they will have to face the Champs and WE are the Champs !

PATs may beat Miami but I kinda doubt it as they will sit the starters
after first half and If BB feels PATs match up better against the Jags
than the Steelers then why would be beat Miami?

it would maybe be nicer to have the four cuz we would play jax instead of pitt, but leftwich will be comin back
the other good thing about four as someone mentioned was if we win the first game (knock on wood) that we would play indy after being rested for a month and could catch em while theyre cold

however, getting the three seed means more home possibilities: if we win (kow) and 4/5 knocked off indy, we would be home for afc champ

either way it kinda makes it cool that we can find a reason to win out, with the possibility of moving up in seeds

just realized, if cincy plays jax, those were my two sleeper afc teams before the season began, kinda funny

The way this team is playing now......NOBODY scares and there is not one team that we cannot beat.

I'd rather the Steelers helped beat some folks up, I have greater faith in their ability to make Cincy/Denver work their tails off than I do for Jax. I also like the idea of playing a young, warm weather team in Foxboro on a friendly New England January day, it just gives the team more time to develop it's playoff persona. But, in the end, we play the schedule and Pittsburgh, Jax, or the long shot of KC will be fine.

The Jaguars are a good football team but also the product of a soft schedule. Not that it's their fault, you can't control who you face during the season, you can only play them and try to win. But I regard the Steelers as a better team, even though I'd have confidence facing either.

But how I look at it, the Steelers would have a better chance at upsetting the Colts in the second round than the Jaguars would. If the Patriots get the 3 seed, they would only get to host the AFC title game against the Jaguars, which would seem unlikely. I see it more feasable that they host the Steelers.

In any case, I don't really care. The Patriots are going to have to face some tough teams to win it all. If the Jaguars or Steelers come first, doesn't matter.

i disagree with u on many fronts

jax could def beat indy, they always play them tough, remember they play em twice a yr, and almost beat them last time with garrard at qb, leftwich will be back for playoffs and makes them a better team


also, if we get the three seed, wed be home against the bengals too

the bengals only lost to indy by 8 earlier in the yr, and it couldve been closer, had they kicked a fg at the beg of fourth quarter instead of going for it and not getting a fourth down conv, then instead of kicking the fg at the end to go along with their failed attempt at an onside, they couldve just gone for it, being down by 8
