Chiefs 27_24
Posted via Mobile Device |
I am voting Chiefs. No back to back shit games at Arrowhead.
|
I'm pickin the Chiefs cause I'm a homer and I just want to win A playoff game cause I'm tired of waiting.
|
17-6 Ravens
Chiefs driving in the 4th with the score 10-6 Ravens and Cassel throws a pick-6 to ice it. |
The Chiefs of course.
|
After sitting through today's atrocity in person, this probably isn't the best time to expect a rational answer from me.
|
If the Chiefs play like they can. Chiefs will win easily.
|
Smart money is on the Edgar Allan Poes.
|
Today's a wake-up call. The game will end up as a replay of the way we beat them on MNF in 2004, with Ray Lewis in tears about how those big mean old guards were hitting him.

Who ever gets their snickers after their Abe Vigoda moment
|
Baltimore 26
KC 13 |
What makes people think BAL isn't going to do what OAK did today? BAL is a much better team. Momentum into the playoffs is HUGE. OAK came into Arrowhead (where no team has won yet this season) and physically pushed KC around ALL....GAME.....LONG. You wanna talk about a letdown game....this was it.
BAL 24 KC 13 |

Gonna say Ravens just cause cause of homerism. That said...completely winnable game for you guys. The Cam Cameron magic trick of turning into a vagina in the second half of every game is gonna be working for you.

Ravens. I have to pick the Ravens in this one because that way, if we do lose, I'll be better prepared for it.
But, wow, I'd loved to be back in this thread at this time next week and eat my words. That would be sweet! Ravens 31, Chiefs 17 |
Ravens have so much more experience. Still a successful year for the Chiefs.
|
The homer is strong in this thread.
Chiefs had a good season... I would be thrilled with a win, especially since I'll be there. I just don't expect it. |

You have been a member of CP for years. Welcome back and good luck next week. |
KC 24
Balt 14 |
It is hard to go on the road and win the PO's. Arrowhead is going to be at 90's level rocking decibels and Flacco hasn't shown well in the postseason.
I think we win and it's not that close. 27 -17. Mark it down. |

Redstar, can you answer a few questions?
How do you think Haloti Ngata matches up with the Chiefs O-line? What's up with Baltimore's pass rush? And what scares you the most about the Chiefs? |
I'm going to pick the Chiefs because being a homer is just more enjoyable.
That's why. |
Ravens 31
Chiefs 13 |
I'll be there, so they'll win. Happens everytime.

"Pass rush" is a strong term for what we have..its been dog shit all season. Sergio Kindle our second rounder cracked his friggin bean and he was being projected into the spot opposite Suggs...man that killed us. Suggs is the only bonified threat to get to Cassell. I'll say this about what scares me...Ravens safeties. Whether its run support or coverage they are absolutely terrible! I'm talking Reed to. Reed has a neck problem and won't tackle anybody, while Landry is just challenged. I think he wears a plastic helmet off the field. The guy is constantly in the wrong position, and doesn't wrap up when he tackles. But your running game does give me nervous. |

I voted the Ravens only because of today's debacle, and Baltimore having more (and more recent) postseason experience. But I sincerely hope today was a wake-up call and I'm wrong, and the Chiefs wipe the floor with the Ravens, because I despise Baltimore, and I think a KC/NE matchup in week two of the playoffs would be fascinating for both the media and the fandom.
|
I dont know if we will win, I think we can win, I voted we will win, and after today its understandable to be skeptical. However, a heart of a champion is not exposed during the good times, but how they respond during times of adversity. Think Rocky...

Earlier in the season I would say we'd have a good shot. But lately the ravens D has really solidified. I'd be willing to bet they shut down the run game. The question is, do you believe that cassel could win the game own his own, without a running game? Let's assume he has decent protection(not the abortion that was today). But even then, if cassel has to win it own his own I don't think he can do it. He's played well in the 2nd half of the season but I'm not convinced he can win it own his own.
Success in this game depends upon the running game, it has to fire on all cylinders if it does then we can win it, if it doesn't then it seems highly doubtful to me. |
I'll wait until Thursday before I vote...
|
I am not going to piss away this week...a week I can enjoy what I've been waiting for for a very long time...by being a negative Nelly. I believe in this team. I really do.
I think Tamba Hali is going to resurrect the spirit of the great Derrick Thomas. I think Matt Cassel will rebound. He has guts. Well, slightly less than before, but he's tough and he's ready. Ultimately, I think we hold them off in the fourth quarter after a quick start. Chiefs 24, Ravens 20 |
who said Flacco isn't crap in the post season:

I am going to hunt down and utterly destroy every single person who voted against the Chiefs on this poll.
Except teedubya. He was the last one of that group who gave me rep, so I'll only partially destroy him. |

I think we're the underdogs, but hey, I can't vote against the Chiefs for a game like this. It's just not American.

Chiefs and Ravens. My two favorite teams. The teams I live and die with avery Sunday.
The Chiefs are my first love but I don't see them beating the Ravens. The Ravens are too physical on D and run the ball too well. At the end of the day Suggs, Lewis and Reed will be too much for the Chiefs. And at the end of the day I will on the one hand be happy and on the other be sad, regardless of the final score. |

Flacco at Arrowhead is a loss for the Ravens, IMO. I think he'll fold from the pressure.
|
31-21 Chiefs.
With lots of comments about "where was this team last week???". |
I think the Chiefs are gonna jump out in front early in this game and somehow, someway, they will hold on. 20-13 KC and when Baltimore fails on their 4th down with not enough time left to avoid KC kneel downs, the whole ****ing stadium will go batshit crazy and I will probably cry.
Edit: And I hope it's a goal line stand. Well I say that now, but when Baltimore has 4th and 7 on the 35 I probably will want it to just end then. |

I'm not terribly surprised by the way todays game turned out. I'd feel better about going up against the Jets but Baltimore is just too good of a football team for us. This team has improved a shitload, but we're just not there yet.

The way I see it...
Their running game versus our run defense...push. I think their OL is good, but so is our DL and our linebackers move quite well. Our secondary is damn god in run support as well. They may have a couple nice runs up the a gaps, but I think we keep everything else in check for the most part. Their passing game versus our pass defense...advantage us. Seriously, I think we have had trouble with speedy receivers thus far, but have done well against possession guys like the Ravens have. I think that if we can find a way to get the lead in this one, we can hold the lead. Carr and Flowers should do well against Mason and Boldin IMO and I think Arenas has what it takes to keep their slot guy (stallworth) in check. DJ has the tools to take their tightends away from too much open space as well. If Hali is able to get consistent pressure we should be able to force Flacco into some errand throws that we can make a play on. We should have chances to be opportunistic against their passing game. Our running game against their run defense...advantage Ravens. I hate typing this one out, but Casey Weigman isnt big enough to play against these guys. No matter who is across from him, he is gonna need help and that will likely dictate what plays we will be able to run against their front. Hopefully, after we try a few times to run up the gut to no avail, we will abandon ship on trying and focus on what we should be able to do to them. We need to run perimeter runs and try to get Jamaal to the sidelines as much as possible. We might as well deactivate Thomas Jones for this one. DMC should get a lot of carries in this game. If I was coordinating this game, I would have Jamaal slotted for 25 touches and DMC to get 15-20 more. We would have both on the field A LOT. Our Passing game against their secondary...this one will likely swing one way or the other depending on if Ed Reed plays or not. If he is out, we have some spots we can take advantage of in the passing game and we should be able to take them out of their game by doing so. They really dont have anyone that can take Bowe out of the game in coverage and they may even have trouble covering Tucker. We should also try to get Charles and DMC in space out of the backfield as we could have some serious matchups against their linebackers in this area. A huge factor that will likely tell the tale here is how well our line protects Cassel and allows him to go through his reads. If Cassel has time, he can help us sustain drives. If Reed is out, I feel we have a slight advantage in this area and if Reed plays at 100%, they have the advantage. Special teams...slight advantage goes to us, but its close. I think they have a slight advantage in place kicking, but that we have a distinct advantage in punters...the return game is pretty close, enough so that I would call it a push. I see this one being a low scoring game that we have a good chance to win if we can find a way to put up points by any means necessary...maybe even on a return on special teams or defense. I think that if we score 17, we win this game. |
how good are the raven corners?
yeah, thought so. We are going to struggle running and that will be the game. |

We also don't have a fullback, and against Ray Lewis...yeesh. Quote:

RRPP IS NOT WINNING THIS GAME. Bowe and Cassel have to come out hot early and then the running game has to take advantage. If we don't run the ball, our defense is gonna end up getting winded after what figures to be a good start, and then Ray Rice becomes a factor and....we've seen that story before. |
I never thought this team was as good as everyone made them out to be. The Chiefs are 2-4 against teams .500+. Benefitted from an easy schedule this year and I cant point to one aspect of next weeks game against the Ravens and say "Thats where the Chiefs will win the game." Our best chance to win will be with the passing game but we have Cassel throwing those passes. Another 1 and done season, but stranger things have happened this year.

Sure I want the Chief's to win. And having the game here helps. But I don't think we're as good as a lot of us think we are. There's still a lot of work to do on this rebuild.

Ravens are a nasty draw for KC...
Baltimore is a hell of a team - tremendous playmakers at all skill positions on both sides of the ball. I think you guys and the team should be proud of the 10 wins, but the playoff losing streak will not end this week. |
As much as I hate to say it, after yesterdays display, Ravens will stomp the shit out of KC. AGAIN, we are one and done.

For the Chiefs to have much of a chance, I'd say special teams would have to come up strong and put some unexpected points on the board.

This will be the second team we've played all year that even hit 10 wins, and the Ravens hit 12.
I figure they'll run right up the gut and at our LDE all day. |
Why Ravens of cource....:evil:
In all seriousness though, if an "underdog team" like the one Plunkett led through the wild card to a SB win can do it, so can the Chiefs. You've got the tools, and the QB when he's on If nothing else, kill the Pats PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Besides i'd rather be happy for a bunch of peole who's board I vist than some ignorant fuggen troll bastard who will show up AFTER the Good bad and ugly are over. |
