    we will go as far as we go. there is no pressure on us. nobody expects much and we've had the best season in our history. let'm hate, i for one, am enjoying the ride.

    That's my point. Mark Sanchez is not at all elite - had QB ratings of 63.0 and 75.3 his first two years - yet won four combined playoff games in those years and went to two AFC title games. He elevated his play a little, sure, but he mostly won those games because of the team around him.

    The old-school narrative that you have to have a proven, elite quarterback to have any chance in the playoffs (see Deion's commentary) is simply wrong.

    I'm as big of a homer as anyone but I'm not ready to make that claim.

    I actually agree. I think we can beat them the next time around. As far as being the best team in the AFC, there is a good argument there.

    love the texans but that's a reach. the ravens have proven to be great and the texans have a ways to go to reach that level of consistency.

    We've lost to the Ravens two times in a row dating back to last season. I don't think they beat us a third time. I think Kubiak will go all out in preparation to beat Baltimore the third time around.
