I really wish we got homefield but Denver deserved it. They beat more playoff teams than us like GB, KC, Pats, Bengals, and Vikings. I think it's amazing the pats earned a bye with all the injuries. Has anybody ever had more offensive line combinations? Great job by the coaching staff dealing with all the injuries when most teams would fold.
Looking at the analysis of since 2009 (see The Most Injured NFL Teams Since the 2009 Season - Man-Games Lost ) our year is up there with the most severely injured teams since 2009.
Makes sense that last year worked out for us as we were middle of the pack in terms of injuries while having a great team. It just tells you once again that this game is not only about having the best team but about having the healthiest team in January.
