TB won because the KC OL was a mess.

Being at home is nice, but teams lose all the time playing at home. Its a 2 week break from the last game, Cincinnati will get to LA in plenty of time. Travel will be a non-issue.

Travel didn't bother them last week in KC, in fact they dominated the 2H.

SF played 6 of 8 games on the road going into the LAR game. Travel didn't really affect them either.
