Zero chance that Houston or Cleveland beats Pitt. Jets have the worst QB situation in the league afyw r mccown went down. They might not score a touchdown all year. Only team that stands a shot is Buffalo. But in your scenario that would still only give us the 2 seed. Much more plausible to just root for Pitt this week and take care of our own business. We also have historically played well in Pittsburgh.

If all three teams go 12-4 we get the 1 seed. We would go 10-2 in conference and NE and PIT would be 9-3, head to head we also beat Pitt. Out of division opponents go head to head, then conference record. 

I agree though. its a bit of wishful thinking, but its very plausible we get the 2 seed either way, which would rock! I feel PIT would be the more susceptible to lose at home than New England, but that's just guessing at this point. So them having the 1 seed and possibly losing in the divisional round would get us a home game if we win in the divisional round. I know Im getting ahead of myself but its pretty damn exciting to be in this spot!
