    They're not up for bid. Part of NBC's package is it gets one of the divisional games.

    The Packers have been eliminated by a game-winning score on the final play three years in a row, and on one of those an onside kick kept them out of the Super Bowl. Also OT losses in 2007 (NFC championship) and 2009 (wild card).

    The Cowboys coaches will go to a Bowl: Highest-seeded conference teams to lose in divisional round will coach that conference at the Pro Bowl.

    Not sure that answers the question, but it makes it interesting.

    Y'all think I'm kidding ... a tornado passed right over AT&T Stadium a few minutes ago. My neighbor (the over-sharer) had a pretty good post: #GoHomeTexasYouAreDrunk

    The Steelers have now driven inside the Chiefs' 30 in each of their six possessions tonight and they have only 15 points to show for it. That is five field goals and one interception in the end zone on first-and-goal from the five.

    That ball was nowhere near the receiver. No way that is pass interference. Terrible call.

    When was the last time a game had three 50-yard plus FGs in the final two minutes?

    Agreed. Steelers will come to regret these field goals.

    Pittsburgh has controlled this game, but KC is one big play away from a tie (if the Chiefs go for two).

    And they will, because it's Andy Reid and they'll go for two too early.
