Looking forward to the St. Louis game

[WebGem]

What do you guys think our chances are? Right now it looks like a must-win. The 49ers can sure change things on Thursday night, but it's not too likely. What do you think our chances are without Cassel/with a non-100% Cassel/with close to 100% Cassel? It's not a home game, but it's the closest thing to one without being at Arrowhead. The team is also nowhere near as good as the Chargers are on either side of the ball. I have faith in Haley to get the team ready for the Rams, and I think we'll pull it out one way or another.

Oh, one last thing. Go 49ers!! They helped us win the division in 1997 with a late-season win against Denver on MNF IIRC, and helped us get into the playoffs BIG TIME in 2006 at Incestco. I'll be tuned into NFL Network on Thursday night.

[LaChapelle]

Depends
did the Broncs lose today

[AtomicPlayboy]

If we can't beat the 6-7 Rams with our playoff lives on the line then I will be quite disappointed. I know the Rams are improved and playing at home but we have to win that game. I'd give it a 60 percent chance if Cassel is 80 percent healthy or higher.

LMAO They got pounded again.I think we beat the Rams.

Sorry, but there's no way in hell the Chiefs are an 80% favorite no matter what way you look at it. The Rams are not only improved and at home, they're well coached, and pretty much need the W just as bad as we do. I'll take a 1 point win. I do think we will get the win one way or the other, but we've got to play a solid game.

[ROYC75]

Rams lost today on the road and need a win next week to keep them in the picture. Uh, hm, their back is against the wall , just like SD was. Will we be motivated for that one?

Big difference. We need the win really f*cking bad now, too. Plus, their back isn't up against shit. Most Rams fans probably think of potential losses as "oh well, the rest of the division will probably lose too". If they lose, in no way is their season over. We don't have that luxury, we have the Chargers breathing down our neck. The Chargers would fucking destroy the NFC West no matter how bad they play in Sept/Oct.

[gblowfish]

The Rams will be playing a road game next week. Bet at least 50% of the dome is KC fans.

[The Bad Guy]

I think the Chiefs have to confuse Bradford. Romeo was the king of mind-fucking rookie and inexperienced QBs in NE.

The turf will show a lot of our speed.

This is the one game that worries me. Tennessee is a dead team. Oakland should be dead by Week 17.

Hopefully SF can regain some form because they are basically 2 games out of the division lead.

[WebGem]

I've never been there (although I will be Sunday), but from what I've heard the opposing teams have 60-70% of the fans sometimes (Rams Fan said this - the ChiefsPlanet one). If that's the case, the fact that KC fans are only 4 hours away should make it even worse for STL.

[ROYC75]

We don't have that luxury, we have the Chargers breathing down our neck. The Chargers would ****ing destroy the NFC West no matter how bad they play in Sept/Oct.

Why wasn't today's game of some importance to KC? We could have closed SD's chances out of the playoffs with a win today.

[WebGem]

Hopefully SF can regain some form because they are basically 2 games out of the division lead.

Nope, only 1 game out. And they are 3-1 in the division and have 2 division games left @STL and home vs AZ. I still doubt they're gonna win, but you really never know.

Even if Oakland loses 1 game by then, they will be motivated just to beat us and keep us out of the playoffs.

FWIW, Oakland is a team on the rise and is capable of beating us at home.

[WebGem]

Why wasn't today's game of some importance to KC? We could have closed SD's chances out of the playoffs with a win today.

It was, it just wasn't like our backs were up against the wall as was the case with SD. We didn't need todays game nearly as bad as they did. When you know you still control your own destiny with a pretty favorable schedule and only 3 games left even if you lose, it's not the same. From here on out, unless SD loses a game before we start ours, it's gonna feel like a must-win every single time.

[ChiefaRoo]

Kansas City will win. I guarantee it.

[Rams Fan]

BS. The Rams need to beat the Chiefs this week and the 49ers next week. I don't want the div to come down to Week 17 in Seattle. The Seahawks need to lose this week and next for me to feel safe. The Rams need this win.

[chiefsfan987]

Nope, only 1 game out. And they are 3-1 in the division and have 2 division games left @STL and home vs AZ. I still doubt they're gonna win, but you really never know.

Well Seattle still has to play Atlanta, and Tampa Bay and I think they'll lose both of those so... its up for grabs IMO.

[Rams Fan]

If the Rams lose to the Chiefs, they have to kick the 49ers asses in 2 weeks. If not, the Rams are done for winning the Div.

[WebGem]

Exactly. That means they need to win 1 of their next 2. Like I said, we don't have the luxury of having shitty ass teams to fight out our division with. Not only is it the Chargers, but they have the biggest joke of a schedule you could possibly write up to end the season with.

Also, please don't turn this thread into the Rams, nobody gives a shit about the Rams winning the NFC West.

[Chiefs Pantalones]

I may be mistaken, but if SD loses Thursday and we win then we just need to beat the Titans to win the division.

[WebGem]

I may be mistaken, but if SD loses Thursday and we win then we just need to beat the Titans to win the division.

Yeah that would be 10 wins, and SD and OAK would each have 7 losses. So that's a clincher. Pretty big IF on the SF > SD though, lol.

[ROYC75]

I may be mistaken, but if SD loses Thursday and we win then we just need to beat the Titans to win the division.

If ? If ?

If we had played with some fire today and won, we only needed to win 1 more game this year.

I'm not going to turn this thread into that. But it's the 2nd to last home game of the season for the Rams. They'll give the Chiefs their best shot. Just don't go on assuming that this game will be easy because it's the Rams, because it won't be.

It shows that this team's killer instinct is horrible. A championship team stomps on the throat of an opposing .500 team even when they have the division wrapped up.


We have a looooong way to go.

[Chiefs Pantalones]

True but SD is so up and down week to week. Just like the rest of the league. They blew us out this week, but could lay an egg Thursday.

And they have two road games left and like the Chiefs they haven't been good on the road for what its worth.

Oh fuck. That was bad ju ju.

SD has to go into Cinci

I hope it's -50 with 10 feet of snow

The good thing is it's not the end of the world. We control our own destiny. We win these last three very winnable games, we win the division.

When playing the Chiefs there is no such thing as a "dead team". The way we played today we will "raise the dead" for sure.

St.Louis will beat us if Cassel doesn't play IMO.

How Marvin Lewis keeps his job is beyond me.

The only way Cassel doesn't play is if Haley continues to baby injured players. I know it's more serious with Cassel, but yeah. If Cassel has any balls he'll play next week. I just hope he didn't accumulate rust.

[notorious]

Thankyou!! Mentally weak and definitely not focused at the right times:thumb:

I think the talent divide between this team and SD is such that the Chiefs have to be 100% focused on getting the job done. They have to play perfect to win.

We might even need a few lucky bounce while playing perfect.


This team can be built on the OLine and Dline and WR so that we can complete with the big-boys, but until then we better play perfect.

[kcpasco]

Cincy has packed it in for the year...... I really have my doubts Cincy can hang with SD. Playing for pride my butt....... Cincy has been raped all year. All they will do now is bend over and give it up.

At the beginning of the season I thought to myself "damn the D is a helluva alot better than I thought" maybe it's Crennel's coaching because the D pretty much has the same roster except for Berry and Smith. But then the D has progressively gotten worse as the season has gone on. And to your point it is the lack of talent which finally shows our glaring weakness especially along the D line and LB positions.

Well, Berry + Smith + players get better as they gain more experience + players get better from better coaching = that's quite a bit of difference. It's not the same as it was.

But not much better. I mean how long do we wait on Dorsey, Jackson etc.....
We have NO pass rush period!:shrug:

[Chiefnj2]

It's pretty much a playoff game for both teams. It should be good - two young teams that are overachieving a bit right now.

[RAMSJUNKIE]

Im sorry to tell you guys but the rams are just the better team all around, they have a better QB they have a better RB they have a better offensive line, the have a better defense, they have an overall better recieving corps, bowe is better than any reciever the rams have but they have more depth. The rams will win this game and win it easily especially if cassel dosent play.

score
rams 31
quiefs 13

[RAMSJUNKIE]

Oh and you will not have home field advantage like you say you will that is a thing of the past since the rams drafted bradford they have sold out every game so far and the dome is rocking like it did in the greatest show on turf days.

Let me know where the Rams are a step ahead of the Chiefs?

The Rams have a nice QB, no WRs, decent OL, one good end in Long, good MLB and thats about it. Your RB is more Larry Johnson these days than anything.

The Rams have been built up as a great story, but let's be honest here, you're 6-7 in what is likely the worst division ever in the NFL.

When the Chiefs come and take your lunch money Sunday, make sure you come back telling me how good the Rams are.

We are not a fast defense. DJ, Berry, and Carr are fast. That's it. Flowers has average speed, Lewis is slow for his position, and Vrabel, and Belcher are really slow.

Hali is rushing the majority of the time, so that doesn't matter as much.
