Don't worry, Buffalo will petition the league to get that changed.

I like that we get our bye in week 10. I also like that we get both the Lions and Commanders here for primetime games. Good stuff.

Is there an algorithm that factors in team strength and then---miles traveled, time between games, monday/thursday/saturday games,

I will never get past the three games in 11 days schedule last year. I know we went 3-0, but that should never happen.

Yes, finally a Thanksgiving game!

Lmao, they did it to us twice this year

Game on the 16th, 23rd, 27th of November. Broncos, Colts, Cowboys.

Dec 14th, 21st, 25th. Chargers, Titans, Broncos

schedule seems way less crazy than last years. christmas being on a thursday helps a lot. starting the season in brazil is tricky, but get through that and i don't think there are too many complaints.

we're basically doing what the cowboys usually do. they often play their thursday night game within a few weeks after thanksgiving to keep some rhythm.

Yep. It was 3 games in 10 days last year because Christmas was on a Wednesday. Every team pretty much has to do 3 games in 11 days whenever the have a Thursday game.

NFL said we going to break some tv records on Thanksgiving. Chiefs vs Cowboys damn that will be a monster. Packers vs Lions should be good one and the Bengals vs Ravens at night.

No doubt. Finally, a turkey day worth watching football!

We very rarely get a gimme. If there is such a thing in the NFL. The Chargers and Bronocs are now decent to good. The Raiders have some talent too. Then we always have to play the Ravens and Bills as division winners.

had not really paid attention yet, working on other things

Lord, they love to throw shit at the Chiefs.

For the record, they do that to other teams as well.

Last year, IIRC, the Chiefs, Texans, and Steelers all played three games in 11 days during that Christmas stretch.

The Lions also did it earlier in the year.

Basically, if you play a Thursday game without a bye week that month, you will play three games in 11 days. Most teams play a Thursday game at some point in the season so I’d bet a lot of teams deal with it.

Yeah, the stretch at the end of last year was so ****ing overblown by fans, especially since the teams that played on Wednesday had played each other the previous Saturday and were all in the same boat.... then the Chiefs looked better on Christmas Day than they had all season. Of course, getting a couple guys back helped, but you'd expect everyone else to die on the field of exhaustion by how much people whined about it all season.

Yeah, why aren't the Eagles playing in these games? Didn't those assholes win the Super Bowl?

They don't want to throw people in jail on holidays

When you're the best, they expect MOAR out of you

Goodell is friends with Santa so Philly is a no-go on Christmas

KC 13-4
LAC 11-6
DEN 10-7
LV 7-10

They can play on the road.

Every fan is hyper focused on their own team; they don’t even stop to consider things from the other perspective.

It’s like the ref thing. Eeeevery fan thinks the refs are out to get their team lol

Also, right now the three premier franchises in the AFC are in Kansas City, Buffalo, and Baltimore. At some point we will have to come to grips with the fact that the league is not out to get us.

No elite QB
Douche bag coaching staff
Boring offensive gameplan
No one out outside Philly loves them or hates them

Other than being a perennial good team and Super Bowl Champs, they are not a sexy draw.

Chief fan bitched for years for not getting prime time games. Now we get them and people bitch.

The You tube game because it'll be broadcast world wide, will break all TV ratings even though its not on TV. :D

They have plenty of skilled players on offense. Barkley should be a big draw even if Hurts isn't Mahomes/Allen/Lamar. In any case, they're a big market and the Super Bowl champions. Let them play some of these marquee games. The Chiefs playing on both holidays is unfair to the Chiefs and to other big markets.

Because America was rooting for them to beat KC in the SB to prevent a three-peat. They did that now America is going back to not caring about them.

I know....still sucks for the players

But we sure did kick ass with it last year.

Any good schedule release videos colts and chargers did Minecraft versions

There's more to this than some realize

Quit being a ****ing reerun about it. We have the greatest and most popular athlete of the generation on the Chiefs. We will be back to shitty noon games on regional CBS that you so desire when he retires.

working 1 is barely acceptable but working both is "tell your boss to suck your dick" territory no matter what your job actually is

I'm actually surprised the NFL puts any decent games on Thanksgiving... it's like free massive ratings for them. I think the Cowboys/Giants set ratings records and that was an awful game.

They should just take the Lions and Cowboys' worst home match up every year, then shove a couple large markets down our throats for dessert.

It’s unbelievable that these ungrateful ****s bitch. I’m spending all my money on getting my kids to the games during this era and am glad I got my 9 year old to his first last year.

The odds of it ever being as good as this Golden Era are borderline impossible. No team has ever gone to 5 Super Bowls in 6 years.

Some of these people just love living in misery. Battered wife syndrome

You put your best seller in the light. Mahomes is the light. We will be on prime time as long as he is the QB.

I wouldn't mind working on Thanksgiving and Christmas if it meant I could make 10 million per year.

What an absolutely brutal schedule. I think they’re coming down to Earth this year.

Eagles final SOS was 30th last season with Chiefs @21

Look what happened the last time they had a first place schedule

And they deliberately beat up on teams. Hoped that would end in the SB

This is the only opportunity with this dynastic version of the Chiefs to play in the annually most watched regular season time slot… the Thanksgiving afternoon game in Dallas… so the NFL didn’t want to pass up on a chance to set a ratings record.

Next time the Chiefs are scheduled to play in Dallas is 2033

Without Kelce. Without Chris Jones. Likely without Andy Reid and (hopefully) with a 38 year old Mahomes.

Maybe. The 17th game recently added (and possibly 18th game) could result in the Chiefs playing in Dallas again sometime sooner.

This, I too think the Chiefs go 13 - 4. Split with Chargers and Broncos, Colts and Bills.

AFCCG = Chiefs @ Ravens

NFCCG = 49ers @ Eagles

SBLX = Chiefs @ Eagles again? :hmmm:

Division will be better but we’re still the top team. I don’t see Jayden Daniels winning his first time at Arrowhead in a prime time game vs us also don’t think the Ravens are beating us at home.

The gambling site lobby money should really afford them better backgrounds

They’ve got all summer though. Almost 4 months until the game. I’d imagine they are already getting the rookies and other players verified for passports.

I can’t be happy enough that we are doing this week 1. I love it and I’m sure the players will love it too.

Sure it sucks playing in the heat in Brazil, but the time zone is the same and it’s week 1.

If we were to poll players across the league, I’d bet the overwhelming majority of the would say that if they could, they’d want to get the international game over with early instead of mid season.

A major reason we lost in Denver 2 years ago was bc we were looking ahead to the Germany game vs the Dolphins the following week. Even Sean Payton shared that opinion about us too.

Not a bad schedule. No three game road stint so that's good. Some home game nooners is good as well. The ****ing Brazil game against a division opponent sucks. If it wasn't against a division rival I'd say play that game like a preseason game. Starters get a quarter and then then Gardner and the backups come in.
