Look at Indy - they were in the AFC Championship Game last year and they have a terrible team.
That's not parity.

In the league today, there are a few really, really, really good teams. And there are a bunch of below average teams. The parity is the worst there's ever been. There could be 3 or 4 teams in the playoffs that are terrible.

As Chiefs fans, we KNOW the deal.

Nope, IF they beat Denver in Denver, then a totally separate CRUSHING "Because- Chiefs - loss" to another suck ass team will follow as soon as we start to believe...


Because Chiefs
Because Chiefs.

Also, dj. And if the chiefs have no intent to resign Sean Smith, there is no point in holding onto him just so we can win two or three meaningless games.
I want to lose all remaining games - except for Denver - it'd be hilarious if we went in there and beat them w/o JC.

What's the difference between the few 'really, really, really good teams' and say, KC??

Coaching and QB play.

We have a really deep roster. We just don't have any way of making that any type of advantage.

I like your style.

I would laugh at this prospect but it isn't worth the effort.

In this league, you need to be either dominant on defense and efficient on offense (Russell Wilson, Eli), have a QB capable of stringing together a surprise run behind a solid team (Flacco, Kaepernick), or have an elite QB. Alex Smith could be B, but it's not likely.

I'm not rooting for the Chiefs to lose. However, I'm not going to lose draft picks so we can have an outside shot at a playoff game.

You have to view this thing in digestible chunks. Chiefs have 3 wins and with 8 left, you want to find a way to 9 wins.. so you can lose 2 of your remaining 8.

All remaining games AFC games (big with the tiebreakers) and 5 within the division, so you want to go 3-2 in those games worst case. Problem is, of the divisional games 3 are on the road.

KC has to protect their house, means you have to beat the Bills, Chargers, Browns and Raiders - not impossible by any means.

Go 4-0 at home and that means you can give up 2 at either Broncos, Chargers, Raiders or Ravens.

@ Broncos / @ Chargers

Bills / @ Raiders

then
Chargers / @ Ravens

Browns / Raiders

All against AFC teams ... 5 within the Division and KC is 1 behind Oakland.

Gotta find your way to a 3-2 record in the division, beat two of the Ravens, Bills and Browns. I think KC goes 2-2 in the next 4, meaning they will have to win out in the final 4 games. It's a tall task, not sure they can do it, but that's how it lays out.

9 wins isn't going to be good enough this year, IMO

Usually, that's correct. Chiefs made it on 9-7 in 06.

Shit, in 05 they missed the playoffs at 10-6.

Do you remember what had to happen in order for them to make it in at 9-7 in 06??
