This week a must win? - Page 2

It seems ridiculous to call the 4th game of the season a must win and of course technically it is not. On the other hand should the Chiefs lose this game they will be two games back with 3 losses in the AFC. Not what you would call a good situation to be in. This would require the Chiefs to win 9 out of the 12 remaining games to reasonably assure themselves a spot in the playoffs.

Every game against a divison opponent is a must. What makes this game more important than an NFC opponent is the tiebreaker(s).

If GC and JR continue to show an effective downfield passing attack, that does not wait to 3rd and long to throw, then I would not want them to leave.

There is only one goal, the SuperBowl. You must get to the playoffs first. If you don't attain the goal then nothing else matters.

More so when you are 1-2 and have had some shaky performances on offense and ST's.

The Chiefs Mgmt/Coaches need this win more than they have in the past for the obvious reason's. Nothing will quiet the brewing storm more than a win in Denver. They can site that victory all season long, even if they went 6-10.
