Chiefs most likely have to win 3 of the next 4 to have a chance

There are realistic scenarios where they lose to Arizona or Oakland but win out and still miss the playoffs
They can lose to one of the 3 remaining AFC teams, however it will be harder to get in than that way

The big games though are at Pitt and home against SD

Just running through some scenarios a loss against either of those teams dramatically reduces their chances of getting in

So this is what it's like to be diagnosed with AIDS.

Yeah, Reid got scared and thought we'd have to put up more points, rather than playing to the team's strength of ball control offense. I hope he learned something.

Yeah, I know you are guessing ... so are most everyone else. This seems to be the year of parity where anything can and does happen. I hear your logic re: Pats let down ... but, I've lost a lot of games in pickem contests with that kind of logic. But, I think the Pats beat SD. They have too much at stake and are a real good team. I will not be surprised if SD wins at Arrowhead.

Oh, no question, I think Denver wins out. I'm pulling for the Donks to lose coz I'm a bit jealous of what Elway has done. Yep, Manning will probably lose again in the S.B. but at least he has a legit chance of getting there. We don't even have a chance of being an average NFL team. Dorsey must have inherited a whole pile of smoke makers and mirrors and is trying to use them all up???? He is doing a very pitiful job!!!

I agree that SF isn't all that great, much of that thanks to the lacking play by Kaepernick. I think the Chargers will be 9-7 and a game behind the final wild card spot. Currently, I have the Chiefs finishing out at 10-6, beating the Cardinals, Raiders, and Chargers, but losing to the Steelers. All in all, I think the Chiefs are good for the 6th seed and a humiliating first round loss in Indianapolis again.

Please god no.

All that said if we win in Arizona our odds of making the playoffs increase? Exactly!

The Bills will have to pull a rabbit out of their ass to not be 7-7 after the next two weeks. The Browns don't even know who their QB is.

I really was worried we would lose to OAK. I also expected us to beat MIA and SD after we started 0-2. I am not saying I have this great vision, but for whatever reason my gut has been right this year. I feel pretty confident that we will beat ARI and OAK. After that, who knows. This team seems to step up when it needs to and fall down when its about to reach a new height.

I think part of the issue is that we are used to the Chiefs beating poor teams and losing to good teams. Every year they get in the playoffs its when they beat every poor team during a weak schedule. Now they seem to be a team that can beat a good team and lose to a bad one. So I don't think you can just use a loss to a weak team to predict that they will lose to a good team. I think you need to look at the SF, MIA, and SD games to look at what to expect this Sunday as far as compete level goes.

Right on man....I REALLY hope we can get that 1993 monkey off our backs.

Good stuff direk

I need you inside me
