Answer me this, Batman: How many NFL games have you watched, from start to finish this season, other than the Chiefs?
A cursory look around the NFL this past Sunday, during the Chiefs Bye, would show terrible outings by many playoff contenders. The Bengals and Ravens were awful, the once great Steelers worse, the Broncos couldn't score in the second half against a lame San Diego team, the 49ers had 91 yards passing, etc. and so on.
Too many people in this forum focus solely on the Chiefs deficiencies yet fail to recognize that 95% of NFL teams have far more issues.

It's implied.
The Broncos of course can continue at this pace but the Chiefs can't.
That's all I keep hearing from the national media and "Chicken Littles" in this forum".

Wait: So the Chiefs aren't winning the time of possession battle and their games?
Huh?

Oh, so the offense isn't contributing or hasn't contributed?
I think we're watching different teams.
While the Chiefs have most certainly left numerous points on the field, they've only needed a defensive score to win a football game just once, in Buffalo.

I'm sorry, I just don't buy that. Having watched the Colts, Redskins, Raiders and Chargers several times this year, I just don't see how the Chiefs could possibly go 2-5 after the Bye.
That's just unequivocal nonsense.
