Which Team Will Be The First To Win A Playoff Game?

[Chiefnj2]

Which one of these 2007 bottom 5 teams will win a playoff game first?

[CosmicPal]

The Raiders will never win another playoff game again. Before Al Davis passes away, he'll move the team once more. He'll stay in California, but he will buy up the land that was once home to Spahn Ranch and have his team play there.

The Falcons will win one sometime in the next 20 years when Michael Vick becomes general manager of the team and recruits a bunch of thugs for his team.

The Dolphins will come close a few times, but Parcells, after being discouraged by his team's performances, leaves football forever in disgust.

The Rams will win a playoff game sometime in the next five years, but nobody in St. Louis will know.

The Kansas City Chiefs will win their first playoff game in two years and run an amazing string of consecutive wins many years in a row thus bringing the joy back to Chiefsville.

[StcChief]

lambs no wayAl Davis no way:kc: way I guess I'm just a blind :homer: at heart.

['Hamas' Jenkins]

I'd go with an NFC team just because their conference is so shitiful.

[keg in kc]

The beauty of the NFL is that it wouldn't be a big surprise if any of those teams won a playoff game in 2009 or 2010.

[Reerun_KC]

I will say Miami... We wont win a playoff game until we clean house, including Herm...

[Pablo]

Probably St. Louis, closely followed by the Chiefs.

I mean, St. Louis plays in the NFC West... that's all you need to know.

[Chiefs_5627]

Rams, as long as theyre healthy.

[crazycoffey]

I'm a homer, I know. I still have what, ReeRun, - two years on our bet? That Herm gets us to the AFC title game....

[Rausch]

Rams, as long as theyre healthy.

I'd say Lambs as well...

[Reerun_KC]

I'm a homer, I know. I still have what, ReeRun, - two years on our bet? That Herm gets us to the AFC title game....
Two years...

I like my chances on this one... Herm will not fail me on this one...:D

[Reerun_KC]

I'd say Lambs as well...
You guys might be right on this one, I should probably of changed my vote to STL...

[Rausch]

You guys might be right on this one, I should probably of changed my vote to STL...

I think we've got a much tougher division. There's never more than 2 respectable teams in the Lambs division at one time.

[Coogs]

Herm has taken teams to the playoffs in 4 of his 7 years as a HC. It will happen here sooner than people think. Maybe even this season when you look at the schedule.

[Reerun_KC]

I do feel however that the Big Tuna will get the Fins turned around and in the playoffs before we do...

:eek:

So should we be preparing for Herms introduction into the HOF sometime in the very near future?

[StcChief]

I don't count a WC win.... if so then I painfully say 'the lambs'.

[Rausch]

:eek:

So should we be preparing for Herms introduction into the HOF sometime in the very near future?

If he were to win a playoff game in KC he'd be a lock for the HOF...

[Coogs]

:eek:

So should we be preparing for Herms introduction into the HOF sometime in the very near future?

No. But he does get teams to the playoffs on a pretty regular basis. And he has won a few games when in the playoffs. I Just have a feeling this is going to get turned around quicker than most people think.

[eazyb81]

Easily the Rams, the NFC is awful.

It's hilarious that St. Louis gets the benefit of playing in crap leagues in football and baseball.

[InChiefsHeaven]

I do feel however that the Big Tuna will get the Fins turned around and in the playoffs before we do...

Oh, is he the coach down there now??

[The Franchise]

Rams. Their offensive line will be healthy and their defense will be improved from a year ago. I still say it takes them another year to get there though.

[ChiefsCountry]

Rams season lies on Orlando Pace. If he is healthy, the Rams will be a pretty good team. If not, they will be horrible.

[crazycoffey]

:eek:

No, but you better save your money for that bottle of scotch and a stoogie....

:p

[Spott]

Is there an option for every team except KC?

[FD]

I vote St Louis for the shitty division and I think they're better than their record last year, too many injuries hit them is all.

[R&GHomer]

Herm has taken teams to the playoffs in 4 of his 7 years as a HC. It will happen here sooner than people think. Maybe even this season when you look at the schedule.

I really don't have a solid reason for thinking this. Just my gut I guess, but I think we really improved this team from last year and with "like you said" this schedule it really wouldn't surprise me. It would be another one and out to be sure, but the spring of hope would be over flowing. Guess we'll just have to wait and see. LOL we could just as easily and most likely will; suck ass.

The Chiefs get my vote.... and yes I'm a complete Homer. That and I hate the Rams

[OnTheWarpath15]

I hate the Rams, but they are the logical choice. They have 3 things going for them the Chiefs don't have. Yet.

Talent.

A shitty division.

A shitty conference.

[Hoover]

I think Rams, but I think the Chiefs will be there in 2 years.

The biggest void on this team is QB and we might already have the guy on the team, he just needed help

[milkman]

I suppose that depends how you define "suck ass".

When the Chiefs went to the playoffs in '03, and in '06, I thought they still sucked ass.

Yeah...Yeah...Yeah.....We scored a lot of points in '03, but our defense couldn't stop my grandma and her cronies.

This year, I don't expect to win a lot of games, but I expect to see a young team going through growing pains and starting to show signs of improvement in the latter stages of the season.

That. IMO, doesn't suck ass.

[el borracho]

In order, beginning with the most likely to win a playoff game first and ending with the least:
Rams
Dolphins
Raidurrs
Chiefs
Falcons

[blueballs]

if you go by the current HC
only Herm has
I think Herm is the only one to play in one

[talastan]

St Louis by far will win before any one else. Who is the toughest team they have to play in their division? Seattle. They're getting old real fast. I think the lambs will have a win in the next couple of years, closely followed by our boys in Red and Gold. Hopefully......

Raiders before the Chiefs?

Are you high?

[talastan]

He might be thinking about the DMC and Jammy Russell combo, but without an offensive line I think these guys are going to be in the same situation as we were, and might still be, last year. Only difference is despite CeePee shortcomings he'll never be Uncle Al Al Davis!!

[Thig Lyfe]

I would not have voted Chiefs if it weren't for that draft.

[alanm]

I do feel however that the Big Tuna will get the Fins turned around and in the playoffs before we do...
Yep.

[Logical]

I would not be suprised to see the Raiders win a WC game this season.

I think Frisco will go to the playoffs in that division before St Louey does.

My view
Raiders
Rams
Dolphins
Chiefs
Falcons

I would not be surprised to find out that your doctor is over prescribing your medication.

[el borracho]

Raiders before the Chiefs?

Their D coordinator > ours
Their QB > ours
We just traded away our best player
We have Herm (a career loser, game day disaster)

I can easily imagine them winning a playoff game this year or next while I can't imagine the Chiefs even making the playoffs this year.

[redbrian]

I'd say Lambs as well...

Nope won't happen, the rams are in a shambel of a mess, the old broad died and now its a bigger mess than what martz left........

I'm not sold on Russell, but even without that, their O-Line sucks, and they signed some pretty crappy ass free agents that I believe actually makes their team worse.

[el borracho]

Well, I'm not sold on Russel, either, but I do think Russel is a more legit prospect than Croyle and, despite adding the best college guard last week our Oline is questionable, at best.

[veist]

How exactly can you think the Raiders are "close" to winning a playoff game? Both of their lines are questionable at best, I'd be really surprised if they manage to have a rush ypg allowed that finished above 25th in the league next year. Unless you think Tommy Kelly coming off knee surgery is somehow going to be better than the unimpressive player he was at DT without a bum knee. Seriously their D-line is basically a bunch of scrubs and Derrick Burgess.

[Ugly Duck]

Russel is a more legit prospect than Croyle

Whoa! El borracho breaks with the pack & speculates that the #1 Overall Pick Jamarcus Russell might possibly have more upside than 9th round pick Brobie Coyle. Who sez there's a buncha homers on this board?

[whoman69]

There lies, damn lies and statistics.
- Yogi Berra

While what you say is true, it is not a true measure of his coaching career. Edwards inherited a veteran team built by Bill Parcells and made it into the playoffs in his first year with a 3rd place finish in the AFC East. He also made the playoffs in the next year with a 9-7 division champion. He left them with a 5-15 record in his last season and a quarter. He inherited a team that was 10-6 the year before in KC and backed into the playoffs with a 9-7 record. Herm's two playoff wins were both against lower seeds. He is 2-5 on opening day, ran Curtis Martin and Larry Johnson into the ground with his conservative play. The one playoff appearance in KC was an offensive embarrassment in which at one point in the third quarter the Colts offense had more first downs than KC had total yards.
Herm has done great things with the defense and we had a great draft. I don't believe he is the answer to our playoff/super bowl drought and never will. It's hard to watch his teams play, just that ugly. What else can you expect from a coach that thinks that if his team scores 30 points they should be in the arena league?

[Ugly Duck]

Raiders before the Chiefs?

Apparently lots of people are.... lookit this NFL.com poll entitled "Which team will win the AFC West?"

47% Chargers
29% Raiders
13% Broncos
11% Chiefs

Just my opinion mind you, but I can't help but see bust all over Russell.
Just saying.:shrug:

[J Diddy]

I had to throw on my rosy colored homer glasses, but i have to believe it will be the chiefs

so more people think that the raiders are the second best team?

how many people thought the giants would be defending champs?

[KcMizzou]

Just my opinion mind you, but I can't help but see bust all over Russell.
Just saying.:shrug:Ah, the Raiders will coach him up. You know Crazy Al never picks a bust.
