    I wanted the avoid the Browns at all costs, but my son talked me into believing a home game was the best chance for them to win a wild card game.

    Let's gooooo!

    With Anderson and (hopefully) Greenard, no way Flacco has the time he had and ability to just play catch with Cooper. Will most certainly be a different game defensively.

    I said this all throughout the last game: Just let Stingley shadow Cooper wherever he goes.

    Hopefully refs call the game decently - strange we never get any PI / DH on our WR and it’s rare they call Holding specially as much pressure as Greenard and WAJ provide

    With Stroud we will be better this time. With Stroud and a healthy Anderson we will up it another notch. If Greenard is able to finally play it would be the cherry on top.

    I just hope our guys clean up the offsides penalties, dirty hits, late hits, and holding. Tunsil, do you hear me? Don't jump offsides! We need you to focus!

    CJ is 6-1 against winning teams. Believe. He is one of the best QB’s in the league.

    I expect the Texans to win and advance. All the comforts and support of home with a healthy CJ. Lock Slowit in the closet and we got this.

    I really don't mean to be disrespectful to our offensive coordinator, BUT his play calling reminds me of BOB. Not a good memory. He is far too conservative, repetitive, and predictable. Playoffs are the time to open up the playbook, become less predictable, and get creative. I would give CJ more flexibility. Yes, the opening play against the Colts was a clear winner, but then the runs up the middle were wasted downs. When something consistently doesn't work, ditch it.

    I think our style works better in dry and calm conditions.

    I was secretly thinking a home game would be nice but when I heard it would be against the Browns I was like nah I might rather have the bills or chiefs playing the underdog role but now its the browns again who chopped us with Flacco I don't know how to feel about it but I hope we don't get burnt like we did last time

    Not at all. Last playoff game I went to is when chiefs beat them 30-0.

    Is this real? Are we really playing the Jets and that season ending turf two years in a row?

    We'll have to improve just to maintain a 10-7 record. A first place schedule is tough.

    That is a very tough schedule. But how good might we be by next season?
