The last two weeks, Buffalo has allowed 86 points and Detroit, 79 points. First and second in the NFL.
Number 3 are the Bears at 61.
Eagles, Chiefs not even in the top 25 in that list.
It's a tiny sample size but it's not weeks 2 and 3 where a team is still working on things. It's past Thanksgiving...
Is there a compelling argument to make that Buffalo and Detroit will play each other in the SB and not Philly & KC?

@Battalion74
I think this late in the year it's less about form and more about attrition.
Detroit is an interesting study as they have big injury holes alleviated by an offense that can score 50.
Buffalo is similar in this regard but can get a little one dimensional which will hurt them against teams with a fully staffed (or close to it) roster.
KC and Philly just cannot score at the rate as those two, but can chew near whole quarters of clock. Philly I see topping out in the 30's which wouldn't be enough if Detroit went fully shoot out.
KC vs. Buffalo we've see enough of to know what we're likely getting.
Long winded way to say you could make a case for either and add in the likes of Baltimore and Green Bay / Tampa if either goes on a run.

The game has changed so much since i became a fan in the early 1970's. A badass D' can still beat a badass O', but the NFL wants points & eye-candy. They're completing a full 360-degree revolution & ending back up where they started: playin' Rugby...
