We would drop to a tie for the 2nd Wild Card spot with the Dolphins next week if we lose and Miami wins.

11-5/12-4. Jeez. Settle.

There's a Winnie the Poo character on here that has them all lathered up.

I had them pegged at 11-5 before they laid this turd. Now I'm thinking 10-6 and a WC.

Valiant 11-20-2016 10:53 PM

If we dont get healthy and change philosophy. 9 and 7.
Realistically 10 and 6.

This next game is telling.

jimidollar 11-20-2016 10:53 PM

They could win the last 6 games and most of us would still not have faith in them, nor should we.

PutQuinnIn 11-20-2016 10:59 PM

Tight playoff race, 10-6 might not garner a Wildcard spot.

@Donkos big fat LLL
@Falcons W
Raiders W
Titans W
Donkos W
@Chargers L

Our fate is still very much within our own hands.
This team has shown so much inner strength and determination that it is hard to doubt that they will not win a few to several of those games just based upon what we have seen them pull out of their asses when it wasn't truly earned.
It is hard to imagine that we don't end up at least 10-6, but I will not be surprised if the offensive ineptitude ends up breaking the hearts and souls of those on defense.

Our only hope is that the offense finds its way.
Would not be surprised if we don't lose most of our remaining games either. This team is Jekyle and Hyde at times.

Anyway how do you all think this team finishes out its season?


think we go 4-2

Red Dawg 11-21-2016 06:14 AM

Denver is a long shot win that probably won't happen. Falcons is the same. We've shown the ability to beat the Raiders and can again. Titans are a team that has what we don't want to see with a strong ground game and a young QB that can run. I have no faith we will beat them nor can we really think we will beat Denver. SD we can beat again.

I see two more wins but we have lucked out a ton the last two years so make it three wins max unless the offense suddenly comes alive and Smith starts playing better than rookies in this league.

The way I see this possibly playing-out is that just enough players and coaches sense the city's frustration with their inept play yesterday, they'll go to Denver (where the low oxygen would doom them anyway) and try really really hard and adding to the injury tally in a quality loss. Then they take their even-more-hobbled selves into the ATL and, in desperate hopes of getting some respect, will again add to the injury tally, and again gain a respectable loss.

I don't know, maybe they go into both Denver and the ATL and kick their ever-loving asses...

This is why you have to win the games you're supposed to win.

Dam you Andy! It's your job to have every player who's physically able to play, readyto play. They weren't ready to play!

Mile High Mania 11-21-2016 07:37 AM

Raiders, Chiefs and Broncos each have tough competition in the final stretch.

Neither of them has an easy path to the playoffs. But, there is no room for error. Sevreral dangerous teams in the AFC at 5 and 6 wins right now, slippage from 2 of the 3 at the top of the AFCW opens a door for the others.

KC has two tough road games @ Broncos and @ Falcons, followed up by what will be a welcome 3 game home stretch, but the Raiders will be tough... Titans have proven they're legit on offense and then you have the Broncos. Season ending road game vs the Chargers.

It's a tough road, but no tougher than what Denver has or even Oakland. Should be a good race with many tense moments.

wazu 11-21-2016 07:40 AM

9-7, no playoffs.

This. No way we win in Denver and Atlanta. Oakland and Tennessee after that. Yeah, we are done.

duncan_idaho 11-21-2016 07:58 AM

Boy, that's a tough close to the season.

Tough road games, tough inter-division matchups, even the "weak" teams on the schedule can offer tough matchups (Tenn and at SAN Diego).

I think they'll be fortunate to finish 3-3 unless the defense gets completely healthy in a hurry or Alex Smith flips that magic switch we've been waiting three years for him to flip.

And even with that, 10-6 and a road playoff game against Pittsburgh or Oakland or Denver looks like another year out after one game.

But that's not surprising. 10-6 with a first round playoff loss is clearly more important to this ownership group than taking the shots necessary to build a real SB team.

7-3 now

@Donkos - L (7-4)
@Falcons - L (7-5)
Raiders - W (8 - 5)
Titans - W (9 - 5)
Donkos - W (10 - 5)
@Chargers - W (11 - 5)

Pull the third wild card and lose on the road to Denver or Pittsburgh.

I don't know, but I'm thinking it's been a few decades since civic pride was any kind of factor in how these guys perform at work.

TEX 11-21-2016 08:27 AM

I picked them to finish 10-6 at the start of the season, and I'm sticking with it... Reason being, since Reid has gotten here it's been 1 step forward, 1 step backwards the following season. They're not able to build on the previous year. It doesn't seem to matter who or what they add. I figured this season would be no different. So, 10-6, a WC birth (maybe) and loss in 1st round if they get in. We'll see...

scho63 11-21-2016 08:53 AM

11-5 or 12-4 if we fix the shit and get healthy

9-7 if we stay at this level

gold_and_red 11-21-2016 01:49 PM

This team may have won 10 straight in Arrowhead but a lot of them were heart stoppers. Our road wins seem to be more convincing. Being a WC may not be the worst predicament if our first two games somehow end up being @Hou and @Oak/Den.
But first we have to win one of @Den/@Atl. Otherwise I have a bad feeling we might miss the playoffs or will be desperate for another team to choke in week 17.

Outside of the Pats, every other AFC team is running hot and cold. 10-6 on the road for the playoffs. They will lose in the first round 24-7 due to Peters returning an INT to the opposition's 4 yard line and not scoring.

10-6, bounced from Playoffs in the first round with poor offensive showing.

Yet another year in which the Chiefs show signs of being something more than a middling team.

If this is indeed our fate, we're about x1 talented QB away from a legit team.

keg in kc 11-21-2016 08:39 PM

9-7, maybe 10-6. They could lose 3 just in the division.

Especially if they're missing Maclin, Ford and/or Peters much more.

DaneMcCloud 11-21-2016 08:44 PM

The pessimist in me says 10-6

The optimist in me says 12-4

Those are just varying degrees of optimism.

Bullshit.

They're not losing 5 of their final 7 unless Tyler Bray is called into action and Dee Ford and J Mac are out for the season.

Do you even football, bro?

I'm not sure they'll be favored again all year.

Im reminded of the 2006 playoff team where Herm managed to back into a playoff spot through a series of tiebreakers. Ty Law intercepted the ball and took it to the Indy one. KC failed to score on the subsequent possession. KC didnt get a first down until 8mins left in the 3rd quarter.

Hey, man. Not gonna go on about it. Hope I'm wrong but the Chiefs look mediocre, with too many key injuries, in the toughest division in football.

What happening right now in Mexico?

I have the NFL package. I see shit teams every weekend.

Losing to the Bucs with 6 starters out isn't the end of the world.

Other teams suck, too.

Which hinges a lot upon the health of this team, which no one has any clue at this point

TigeRRUppeRRcut 11-21-2016 09:37 PM

If this team was full strength, 11-5 at the worst
