Sports Illustrated: 5 Writers Choose Chiefs as AFC Champs, 2 as Super Bowl Champs
https://www.si.com/nfl/2017/11/08/su...n-nfl-playoffs

Who Will Win Super Bowl LII? Our NFL Midseason Predictions

I included the Chiefs only in this thread

AFC CHAMPION: Patriots (9 votes), Chiefs (5), Steelers (4)

NFC CHAMPION: Eagles (9), Seahawks (4), Rams (2), Vikings (2), Saints (1)

SUPER BOWL LII CHAMPION: Eagles (4), Patriots (4), Steelers (3), Chiefs (2), Rams (2), Vikings (2), Seahawks (1)

ROBERT KLEMKO

If it comes down to these two teams, the matchup to watch would be Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce vs. this Seahawks secondary, and Seattle has been gashed recently by some talented tight ends. I'd bet on Kam Chancellor, Earl Thomas, Bobby Wagner and Richard Sherman to remedy this by season's end. Shut down Kelce, and the Chiefs don't look so tough.




TIM ROHAN

The Eagles continue to roll through the NFC, and the Chiefs find their footing in the AFC. The Chiefs are the better all-around team, and Alex Smith outplays Tom Brady again in the AFC Championship, just as he did all the way back in Week 1. That gives us … drum roll, please … the Andy Reid bowl. We get two weeks of pregame hype about Reid and his mentee Doug Pederson, about the glory days of McNabb and Westbrook and Terrell Owens in Philly. Version 2.0 might be better. Smith, Kareem Hunt, and Tyreek Hill lead the Chiefs to the title.



ANDREW BRANDT

It has been the year of the Eagles from the start. They have been winning without their best cornerback (Ronald Darby), their most versatile offensive weapon (Darren Sproles), their best linebacker (Jordan Hicks), their best offensive lineman (Jason Peters) and even blew out the Broncos without their best receiving target (Zach Ertz). They have a top 5 defensive line, a top 5 offensive line and a top 5 quarterback. They have beaten teams on subpar offensive days and on subpar defensive days, and have blown teams out when both have clicked. And Doug Pederson has Andy Reid's creativity with a freshness to it that is fun to watch. In one of the more stunning turnarounds in NFL history, they are the team to beat and it doesn't even look particularly close at this point.



BEN BASKIN

I almost picked the Patriots simply because I still really don’t want to bet against Tom Brady and Bill Belichick. But are they a better team than the Steelers or the Chiefs or the Eagles? No, they are not. So I’m going to go with logic over instinct. Andy Reid has created one of the more dynamic and exciting offenses in the league this year, matched only by Doug Pederson and the Eagles. We would get Reid exorcising old demons and beating the team that fired him. We would get Alex Smith completely rewriting the narrative on his career. We would get Travis Kelce end zone dances and Kareem Hunt doing Kareem Hunt things. This is the fun Super Bowl that the NFL needs to save what has been an incredibly not fun season.



JOHN DEPETRO

The NFC Divisional matchup between the Cinderella Los Angles Rams and the 15-1 juggernaut Philadelphia Eagles is the true Super Bowl LII. Goff's Rams edge Wentz's Eagles in an all-time classic. Old-man Drew Brees' last best shot at a title ends in a half-empty Los Angeles Coliseum. The Kansas City Chiefs grind through three tough playoff games, overcoming the Bills, Steelers and the Patriots. Weary from the cold and brutal road to the Minneapolis, the Chiefs fall short and the once-dead Rams franchise wins its first Lombardi trophy since 1999, and Tinseltown is now home to the Oscars and the 2017 Super Bowl Champs.

If I was high on crack, I still wouldn't pick the Chiefs to win either the AFC or SB. These guys really don't know about the Chiefs.

And jinxes aside, I don't believe in that sh*t. We will lose not because of SI jinx or
Curse, **** that sh*t. We will lose because we are just not good enough. Plain and simple. It's just the same as it ever was. Probably will be the same for a long time? Most people know this team isn't a SB contender; at least most of the educated folks on this
board do. And when we do lose, I definately won't be one of those people that point the finger at SI cursing at them or yelling; nope none of that because I understand this team isn't good enough. Same as it ever was.

i dont think its 'panic' to remain skeptical the chiefs can beat great teams in the playoffs

i agree that our schedule is much easier from here on out

but that doesnt even necessarily translate to playoff wins

The best chance the Chiefs have of making the Super Bowl is to avoid injuries, especially season ending injuries, to their starters.

Does anyone think that the Steelers would be in the Super Bowl conversation if they lost an All Pro defensive player, their #2 Wide Receiver, their #1 running back for the season, along with their two best offensive lineman for more than 5 weeks?

The Chiefs have overcome a myriad of injuries and are still in this thing.

I'd say there is about a 0.0000000000001% chance of the Raiders making the playoffs.

Scotty, beam me up. There is no intelligent life on this planet...

Chiefs... I am sad that I am giving up on them. Play a standard 2 deep zone and the Chiefs fall apart.

Maybe next year. I just don't see them being able to beat a physical team. At home or on the road. They just seem soft and gimmicky.

I am hoping for good weather on Sundays so I can golf...

When we don't win up front we sometimes resort to gimmicks.

Even when we were pushing the opponent around Reid used the gimmicks too often. Overall the first 5 games showed what KC would look like if they had a competent line. It was beautiful

Guess we will have to pick ourselves up and see where this all goes
