AFC West race
So we are now tied with the Donks at 9-1. The loss yesterday sucks but it isn't season defining by any means. We still control our own destiny for the division and a first round bye which is all that any team can ask for coming down the stretch.
So how much chance do you give the Chiefs to win the division? Here is the remaining schedule for each team. Dungver: @ NE @ KC vs Tenn vs SD @ HOU @ OAK Chiefs: vs SD vs DEN @ WAS @ OAK vs IND @ SD Looking at the remaining schedules it is pretty clear that the next two weeks will in all likelihood decide the division. I think we win this week and the Donks lose at the Patriots. Then at home against Denver we would have a good chance to put a two game difference between us. After that, I am assuming that Denver will win out. However, one game that could be interesting is at Houston. They have the offensive horses to keep up, and some playmakers on defense, so that game could be very interesting. I don't see Washington or Oakland as a threat. Then after that, Indy is clearly not the same without Wayne. They really have not looked too good as of late. Luck has done his thing but I don't see how they score against our defense in Arrowhead. The the last game at San Diego, will in my estimation, be a throw away game for San Diego. Sure they will want to beat us, but if they have recently been eliminated from the playoffs they won't be 100% invested. Also if the next two weeks and subsequent games after that go as I think they will, that game won't matter to us either as we will already have the division and first round bye locked up. I really think that after these next two weeks we will be 11-1 and the Donks will be 9-3. That gives us a one game cushion to lose a game we shouldn't or to not have any real importance to the last game at San Diego. I think we end up at 14-2 and Denver at 13-3. How does everyone see this thing playing out? We weren't going 16-0, so although yesterday's loss is annoying and I would have rather lost at Buffalo than at Denver, we are still in a pretty good spot. These next two games are huge, and though it is possible I am being a too much of a homer, I really think we will be back in first placem, and quite possibly up by two games, after our Denver game in Arrowhead. |
