(Bob Dole doesn't buy the "we backed in" view, but the team's performance once we were there sure solidified it for those who did.)
"Backing in" might be the wrong description, but the fact is, the Chiefs weren't very good, and really didn't belong in the playoffs.

That is more a problem with the system, however.

It has been my opinion for years that there are at least two too many teams per conference in the playoffs.

It's even that I feel very slighted about it, I just think it is rather odd, the tone in which KC is being talked about. Like they were the Raiders, Browns, Benglas or Lions.

Carl Peterson stringently disagrees

Thats what I was thinking. If the Chiefs are playing well by the time they go to Indy, they will probably move that game.

I think it's some sorta plan to get Herm the "Coach of the Year" award....

Better that way cuz they would have earned it based on play - not on opinion.

you know that ratings is going to push for the Network exec to want other games.
Yep. And that's unfortunate. Oh well - we'll just have to earn it through flex scheduling.

They haven't won a playoff game since the '93 season. They get the respect they deserve. Although it is harder to swallow on a week like this one, where their opponent hasn't done anything in years, either, yet they're somehow favored at Arrowhead.

(That playoff streak will end in the next 2 years IMHO.)

Maybe.

But it was Lamar Hunt that wanted to expand the playoffs, and I assume that Clark will continue to seek to expand them.

Carl sucks ass, no doubt, but so did Lamar Hunt for the last 30 years.

I further assume Clark will also.

Yup. We bash Carl all the time around here, but IMO the Hunts are more to blame. They hired Carl, and continue to employ him.
