I think that this just isn't a traditional year, so by traditional standards, I realize that you'd just blanket root for AFC teams to lose to NFC teams, but we have a multiple game lead on the Bengals and they don't have a QB. If we don't make it in the playoffs, because of them, it was because we weren't good enough, so I don't think it matters.
I do think there's value in having the Bills stressing at all these other teams with the same record, especially since the Bills have lost the head-to-head.
So, I'm cool with the Bengals winning today.
Steelers/Colts -- This is a very important game for both of these teams, but for the Dolphins chances, I don't think it really matters. As it stands now, the Steelers are 1 spot ahead of the Colts because of tiebreakers, so I guess you'd want the Steelers to apply the maximum amount of pressure to the Bills.
With the Broncos, I think we want them to win. We have a two game lead and a tiebreaker, which essentially means we're three games up. Meanwhile, they have the tiebreaker over the Bills. There isn't a universe where the Broncos catch up where getting into the playoffs then matters, so I think we're rooting for the AFC today, as strange as it sounds.
