Chiefs Scenarios - Page 2

Although, if we beat the Colts next week, they'll only finish with at best 10 wins and will lose any tiebreaker to Cincinnati or Miami. So if you really want to play Miami, you might want to lose this week.

Ya I found the espn playoff generator. I can't find a single scenario that we dont play the Colts if we beat them this weekend. Lose to them and we run a very high risk of playing Baltimore or New England on the road. The Dolphins scenario requires us losing and I'm not feeling that.

This Colts game is turning into a massive game this weekend if we think that's the best match up in the playoffs.

Ravens win the North and Colts win Tie breaker with them. Chiefs would go to Baltimore.

Baltimore and Colts finish 10-6.

Well there is 2 scenarios where we don't play them if we win this weekend.

Of course, there's also the possibility the Broncos actually lose on the road, which could change anything and everything.

At this point, you're still looking at the AFC West. The odds are long, but still worth looking at.

Here's my preference for first round match ups:

1. Bye
2. Colts
3. Dolphins
4. Patriots
5. Bengals
6. Ravens

If we win I think it's most likely going to be the Colts. The Ravens seem to beat them in the tiebreakers. These scenarios are a real mess because the top 3 AFC teams all lost last week.

I was just messing around with the ESPN playoff machine. There's still a scenario where Miami gets a 2 seed and the bye.

Baltimore wins out (NE/@CIN)
Chiefs beat the Colts
Miami wins out (@BUF/JETS)
New England loses out (BAL/@BUF)

That happens, Miami is the 2 seed. We'd still play the Colts in round 1. New England losing to Buffalo is the only real crazy upset there.

It's possible New England could go into that Buffalo game with this scenario: They win, they are the 2 seed and get a bye. They lose, they miss the playoffs entirely. True story.

To play Miami:

We lose to Colts
Dolphins win out
Patriots lose out
Bengals win out

And the Colts gotta beat Jags last week. Fins would hold tie breaker if Jags beat them.

NE in their current state losing to Buffalo isn't the most far fetched thing in the world. Hope it happens.

If this game determines whether or not NE makes the playoffs - can you imagine the referee briefing before that game!!!!

Here you go, straight from the NFL rulebook, on the bottom of page 14.

I guess it's not impossible. Plus who knows what the weather will be in Buffalo, they've had some real nasty late season games over the years.

Still, I was really surprised. If they lose to Baltimore and CIN/MIA both win... New England might be playing just to get in the following week.

New England is in, unless Baltimore beats Cincy in that scenario.
