Might be misremebering but I seem to remember Bill having an underwhelming record against former coordinators.

We could finish and 14-2 and get the 2 seed. And conceivably 13-3 and be a freaking wild card.

NE, regardless of their out of division schedule, still is in a terrible division year in and year out. That always helps. Even though they’re still good, their division really helps them out.

Patriots division is what their winning is built on. Its so weak they are handed a home playoff game before the season starts. No team has a QB that challenges them ever. Pats are the most overrated pile of shit ever.

Yes it is a mediocre division. Over 20 years, though, is it really much worse than the AFC South was for nearly all of those years, when it was Colts/Manning and a bunch of punching bags? How about NFC North where it was Favre/Rogers and three joke franchises most years. NFC West, with Seahawks and three lame ones?

One problem is that the Patriots run has been so ridiculously LONG. Usually teams aren't mediocre for that long, but as one team declines, another rises up. The Patriots haven't declined, so they just always hand out losses to those other teams, and they have not fared well.

The right way to do this would be to compare inter-divisional games, but I'm not going to bother with that. Is it a mediocre division? Absolutely. Has it been the ABSOLUTE WORST DIVISION IN FOOTBALL for 20 years? Nah.

You're arguing with actual statistics? Are they not right? I mean, wtf?

Eh not really...they kind of win the Super Bowl year after year after year....

That's not overrated...

The paranoia makes me laugh. There are actual rules that decide this you dumbass. No discretion at all.

Here, you want the Chiefs 2022 schedule? Here it is:

https://fbschedules.com/nfl/kansas-city-chiefs/


Home: Denver, Oakland, SD, Colts, Texans, Rams, Seahawks, AFC East team TBD (same finish in division from prior year)

Away: Denver, Oakland, SD, Jags, Titans, Cardinals, 49ers, AFC North team TBD (same finish in division from prior year)


JFC.

Packers and vikings coming to town next year!

Next year looks easy as shit

Yes!

I'm not buying that the schedule for 2022 is set already. No one knows the schedule till the summer prior.

ROFL

Ok. You believe what you want, but the NFL for many years now (since the advent of 32 teams) has a set rotation schedule, which is very simple to understand:

six games against division opponents (one home, one away)

four games against a rotating division within your conference. For the Chiefs, it's the AFC North this year and the AFC South next year.

Four games against a rotating division in the other conference. For the Chiefs, it's the NFC West this year and the NFC North next year.

The remaining two games are against the two teams in (1) the other divisions in the same conference that you aren't already playing this year (2) that finished with the same seed in their division as you finished in yours in the prior year. For the Chiefs, that means that if you finish first in the AFC West, next year you will play the team that had the first seed in the AFC East and North next year (because you are playing ALL of the AFC South next year.

AND HEY, GOOD NEWS -- if you finish first and the Patriots finish first too, then next year you get to come back to Foxboro AGAIN.

And whine that you're being ****ed and the NFC is rigged!! Because you don't understand that it's a system. Whether you believe in it or not.

They are already determined through 2023.

Nothing is different until you make it different. We must get that off pur back. Trash bag Smith had two tries and failed.

Ravens are not that good lately. Perhaps they never were that good. I'm not sold on them. I think the Chiefs take care of business at home against them. The Chargers have to travel halfway across the country to play on a short week. I like the Chiefs chances. Seahawks are playing much better lately but the Chiefs are a better team. The Rams will be tough, sure. Can't wait for that game. Sure, they could lose any or all of those games. IMO, they will only lose 1, possibly 2 of those. If that happens then we have to hope for a Patriots loss or two somewhere along the way.
