It's cool to talk about, but it really isn't likely.

You've gotta rest some dudes and you just wanna be healthy in December and january.

If you lost a game in October because you were doing some load management or something and you're healthy late, who cares.

I can completely see why he would want to also now get the best record in all of NFL history - 20-0.

I can totally see why he'd want to go 20-0 given his list of accomplishments so far. It's nice to have stretch goals, it's what keeps you moving forward and not getting stagnant.

That being said, it's still a meaningless achievement in the grand scheme of things.

So what other team in the conference will keep the chiefs from resting players the last two weeks if they actually have a shot at going undefeated?

Undefeated is a nice goal but winning the superbowl is more important.

Let's just set focus on beating the Browns and take it from there one game at a time everyone is beatable but we have our work cut out to go 20-0. Who wouldn't love that?

I know it's 12-4, but I do have to think about it for a couple of seconds. "Wait, or was it 11-5?" I second guess myself, then say, "No, I remember it being 12-4" then count which games we lost to make sure I'm right.

And that's our magical Super Bowl season. I have to resort to mind tricks to remember something like that the year we won the freakin Super Bowl.


11-3 in 1969 when they finished 2nd to the Faid who were 12-1-1. No cares what record it took to get your playoff position, just that you won the Super Bowl.

But if the Chiefs would go 20-0 they would go down as the greatest team in NFL history.

That’s why the 84 49ers & the 85 Bears are considered great. If they had lost the Super Bowl....different story.

The Cowboys beat the Dolphins in Super Bowl VI. You are thinking of Super Bowl V when the Colts beat the Cowboys.

Dolphins did win Super Bowl VIII vs the Vikings.

If we were 15-0 or 16-0 I wouldn't rest any of the players. And as apparent from Mahomes comment, I don't think he would rest or allow the coaching staff to rest him if they had that kind of season going. That is greatness.

There is a reason the 1972 Dolphins are the only undefeated team in NFL history.

I want to win the Super Bowl more than anything but if we lose any games just as long as it's not to the Raiders, Broncos or Cowboys i can live with what ever record. **** the Raiders twice, Broncos twice & the Cowboys.

mililo4cpa 06-01-2021 11:53 AM

I can't speak for anyone other than myself, but give me a 12-4 Super Bowl winner Chiefs over a 14-2 Super Bowl losing Chiefs. Don't care if they go undefeated, the priority is and should always be winning the Super Bowl. Heck, give me a 12-4 Super Bowl winner over an 18 - 1 Super Bowl loser.....

King_Chief_Fan 06-01-2021 12:03 PM

pfft...give me 8-10 Superbowls

That is what a 1/2 billion dollar Qb should do

duncan_idaho 06-01-2021 12:08 PM

Super Bowl wins > everything else

I think that's obvious to everyone except kansas basketball fans who want to think rare regular season achievements are more impressive than winning the title.

But I don't see anything wrong with a competitor wanting to finish a season undefeated/perfect.

I think we're going to see locked-in, ruthless Patrick Mahomes II. And that's good for the Chiefs and bad for the rest of the league.

It was and remains quite an accomplishment, but there was only a 14 game regular season schedule back then. IMO, some team would have matched it had the number of games stayed at 14.
