Who do you like going to the Super Bowl (if the Steelers are out of it)?
I'm going to go outside the box...
Seahawks vs. Chargers with the Seahawks winning.

I'm going to go outside the box...
Seahawks vs. Chargers with the Seahawks winning.
If the Steelers aren't in it can it actually even be considered a Super Bowl?
I'm going with KC and New Orleans.
What I want to see if the Steelers don't make it:
Houston vs LA Rams
For who I think will make it, I am sticking with my preseason pick of Patriots vs Saints
Patriots because Bellichick, Brady, bullshit that always go their way. Chiefs defense sucks and Andy Reid is a choker. Bill O Brien and Houston always gets thoroughly outclassed by the first real playoff team they face (especially the Pats), Chargers have the best chance to seat New England but I don't trust them winning a playoff game in New England not with some of their injuries
Saints: Brees-Payton, experienced running game and just enough defense get them over the Rams, moreso if the Saints get the no. 1 seed
I do not trust the Chiefs and Andy Reid in the playoffs so I am going with Patriots-Saints with Saints to win it all.
If not the Steelers I would like it to be the Chargers since I put down a "reasonable longshot" bet at 21-1 for the Chargers to win the Super Bowl in September (no claim to betting savvy - my other longshot bet was on the Falcons at 17-1 ) - but unless they catch the Chiefs I do not see the Chargers winning three road games in January.
I think Chiefs and Patsies get upset in playoffs this year. Im going with Steelers vs Rams. If not Steelers then Texans vs Rams. Im a homer but I think the Steelers get there shit together after wake up call last 2 weeks. 3-1 to end season and win division by half game. If they don't upset Pats or Saints they prove to me they shouldn't be there anyways.
As long as the Patr*ots don't get in, I don't care who's in it.
Pretty much
The Texans’ defense have disrupted Brady before, but in the playoffs, the Texans have never had a decent QB. Really. If Watson stays healthy, they’d be the front-runner. As others have said: the Chiefs have no defense and it’d be tough for the Chargers to navigate that gauntlet.
I’m rooting for Breesus. He often gets overlooked in the Manning vs. Brady vs. Rodgers debates... and, for my money, he’s the BEST out there. Plus, every time that he wins, a Chargers fan dies a little inside.
I dont Care who makes it in as long as it isn't new England or Baltimore. Of course if those two teams meet in the afc championship which is a real possibility at this point, I wont be watching
Speaking of Baltimore, they are tied in the 3rd quarter in KC.
If they win today on the road we have NO room for error.
Now Ravens up 24-17 with only 3 minutes left. Finally it's time to see if Mahommes has the cojones.
Baltimore has played a great second half
Pass rush + Mahomes cannot read the defenses - runs + 2 short TD passes by Jackson & long punt return to set up go ahead score
Blueprint for winning December/playoff football
I remain unconvinced Chiefs will get it done in January
If the Steelers aren't in doesn't make much difference to me. I will pull for Titans and Saints.
a rematch of Chiefs vs Rams would be entertaining I suppose
Kenny Pickett is who I though he was .. Eagles problem now
Anybody but the Patriots*****
I predicted Saints vs Patriots with the Saints winning at the beginning of the season and I'm sticking to that.
