The Chiefs are simply built to beat the Patriots’ in playoffs, says Fox Sports writer
 

"If the Chiefs have home field advantage in playoffs, they are going to Super Bowl"

Sweet words to the Homer in me. But, alas, they are just words.

If you’re wondering if the 7-2 Chiefs might be flying under the radar with national media, that’s not the case.

Among AFC teams, the Chiefs have the second-best chance to win the Super Bowl, according to fivethirtyeight.com. That 15 percent chance is just behind the Patriots (17 percent). The Chiefs are the top AFC team in Sports Illustrated’s power rankings. They are the second-best AFC team behind the Patriots, according to CBS Sports.

On Thursday, Peter Schrager, Senior National Football Writer for Fox Sports, said only one team in the AFC could beat out the Patriots for a spot in the Super Bowl: the Chiefs.

Schrager noted that the Chiefs have won 17 of their last 19 regular-season games and their home-field advantage is huge.

“The Chiefs do not lose at home,” he said. “They are on a 10-game winning streak in Arrowhead, which is the longest active streak in the entire league.”

Schrager says if the Chiefs win home-field advantage through the playoffs, they will make the Super Bowl.

“The Chiefs are simply built to beat the Patriots,” Schrager said.

Here is more on what Schrager said.

We meet the pats in the playoffs it will just be a repeat of last year maybe worse some how our offense has regressed from total ass to abysmal

I am still favoring Tom Brady over Alex Smith and Bill Belichick over Andy Reid in a playoff game until proven otherwise.

Somewhere Wolfman Joe sought out a silver bullet

Err one game at a time. I'd just like the offense to look half way decent first before we start sucking each other's dicks

Where is that video of Tom cruise cracking up when you need it?

Seriously, what EXACTLY do the Pats have that can dominate our defense?

They have an insanely good tight end -- who will get some catches but we're so much better at guarding tight ends than everybody else in the league.

Edelman is the only thing that could give us problems. We have no real answer for him -- everything he does well, we struggle with in the secondary.

Brady is Brady, of course, and can negate anything your defense does well, but we're going to have two of the best passrushers in the NFL coming at him.

The New England defense is dramatically overrated -- they traded two of their best talents away this year. The Chiefs can nickel-and-dime them.

If the Chiefs can put up 24 points, it's over.

Well the srticle is right. What other team has a shot? Your QB Semenboy? ROFL You can beat anyone with ball security and an elite D.

Yeah, me too, but I like BB/Brady over Rex Ryan and Mark Sanchez in the playoffs one year until that didn't work out so well. And Brady >>> Eli Manning, but that hasn't worked out well twice, so...

Chiefs offense can barely put up 7 points a game lately.

Flush this turd

Tom Brady.

Starting C-OUT
Starting RG-OUT
Best WR-leg injury. Could barely run routes
Houston-8 snaps. ****ed ACL
Tamba-broken hand and swollen knees. Not healthy at all
Best RB-OUT---ACL
2nd string RB-OUT
3rd string RB-OUT
Nickel CB-OUT

It would have been nice to play them with any of our best and most needed players available.

injuries are part of the game

That being said I just fail to see how 2016 chiefs are better then 2015 chiefs we look worse on offense in every way.

Every way? Your rambling hate blinds you.

Not to mention the two Kniles fumbles that ultimately cost them the game.

Pats would beat us by 3 scores

It would obv have to be at home, because we'd never win up there.


I don't recall stopping Brady last year but perhaps I misremember the game.

In what way on offense are we better ?

Bro the Chiefs have failed to score an offensive TD in 2 games.

OT is signficantly better as well as the OL overall (Morse is stronger/LDT looks like he finally gets it and is consistent).

Conley=much improved over last year
Reek=way better than Wilson

OL and WR overall is far better

Maclin is our True 1 and he is looking like a dumpster fire this year and Conley didn't do shit last week.

This sounds like a fun game. Let me play too:

2015 Patriots:

Starting left tackle and team captain (Solder) - out
Starting Guard (Wendell) - out
starting RB (Blount) - out
Starting 3rd down RB (Dion Lewis) - out
Full back (Develin) - out
Starting MLB and team captain (Jerod Mayo) - out
starting/sub DT (Easley) - out
Backup ILB and key ST guy (Fletcher) - out
Crapton of other guys - out

(19 players on IR total)

It's hard to "do shit" when a player's targeted just 3 times in a game.

So you agree he is a non factor I'm not blaming it on him per say it just goes to my point that our offense is worse this year by far then last year.

They would kick our ass. Writer is an idiot.

I do agree that the Chiefs are the best built team to beat NE in the playoffs. Denver probably was until their QB became Siemian while their OL remains terrible.

To win a playoff game at NE, or even against them at Arrowhead, you are going to have to take care of the ball. The Chiefs can do that. You also are going to probably need some special plays on defense and STs, which the Chiefs are better suited to pull off than anyone.

If you think back, Peters nearly intercepted Brady like 3 times last year. If he catches even one interception, it is a different game. If Tyreek Hill takes even one punt past the 50 or to the house, it changes the game.

There is no doubt we have the best shot IMO. Will we? Lets just beat the Bucs first.

Chris Conley needs to start being implemented in the offense. I firmly believe that guy is a play maker not being used. It's a dangerous team if the offense magically clicks.

The same Sieman that tossed 4 tds vs Cincy

Alex jacks off to sieman stats.

He's not a "non-factor". He's averaging 12.1 yards per catch and already has 125 more yards (325) than his entire rookie season. Maclin's averaging 12.5 and has 3 more receptions than Conley.

The bottom line is that Andy Reid isn't putting Conley into the game plan as much as he should. He's been game planning Hill recently and obviously, Albert Wilson, who sucks ass, but very little for Conley and even Kelce.

The blame doesn't lie with Conley, it lies with Reid. Conley's been very good when he's had opportunities this year.

It's really impressive that the Broncos beat a 3-5-1 Bengals team.

How'd Siemien do against the Raiders in Oakland? Did they win 26-10?

Someone has been saying all along that ball security and turnover differential decide games. You guys should get together and chat about it.

Have you watched the Broncos for the last month?

There's been some talk of Siemian losing his job if he doesn't pick it up.

Ms. Cleo knows his shit. He is a "seer".

Can we please not quote Oak on this forum? Trying to preserve my IQ

I would say it lies with Reid and Alex.

Alex has been just checking it down and not tossing to Conley when he is wide open.

Offset by being cheaters

Foot ball is a any given Sunday he did suck vs the Raiders but his one game this year was far better then Alex has done this entire season.

Well it does, so stop being a simpleton and listen ROFL

Must be nice to have standards and know your team won't deal with mediocre QB play I wonder what that is like.

If Alex had Siemian's stats you would be jacking him off all season

Where ever Dane is your nose isn't to far from his ass is it ?

Turd in the punch bowl

Maybe things will change when Maclin is healthy. Maclin/Hill will be fun. The 3 TE thing isn't working like it did in 14'. Harris sucks as do the other 2 not named Kelce. Let Sankey play Charcandrick West is trash.

Maclin played most of last season and we still sucked on offense

http://www.espn.com/nfl/statistics/t...otal/year/2015

If we don't get in to the teens of offensive production we ain't winning shit that matters.

You just accurately put Alex Smith's entire career into one sentence.

I bet when Andy Reid and Alex Smith have sex they do it missionary with the lights off, door closed and no eye contact every time.

When so called "experts" like this dildo write something stupid like this and jinxes us, we should cut a hole in their sack and run their leg through it.

12 TD's and 7 INT's? That's impressive?

LMAO

Moving the goalposts again, I see.

Kudos.

You have seen Tiger post on here if Smith tossed 4 TD in one game he would be untouchable to 90% alex ballwashers in here.

Yea because 8 TD and 3 INT is so much more impressive at this point in the season.

And you're making a fool out of yourself with stupid comments like this:

Since Week 4, the week after Sieman's 4 TD game against the powerhouse Bengals, he's tossed 7 TD's and 4 INT's.

In that span, Alex Smith has thrown 5 TD's and 2 INT's in one less game.

Sieman: 2,028 yards this season

Smith: 1,816 yards in one less game.

Bottom line? Neither QB's have been impressive, which completely nullifies your ignorant statement.

One had a 4 td game it was at least a flash of brilliance

After the SD game most people on here would have crown Alex the MVP of the team for the season.

And Alex had 2 TD and a int. The hypocrisy for Alex on here is unreal.

Umm...maybe you made your point, but seeing as how Alex compares fairly evenly to a first year QB that is struggling, I'm not seeing why we shouldn't get rid of him.

I'm surprised that you have a home and can feed yourself because based on your posts, there's dribble constantly running out of your mouth.

Simple Question why does Alex get a free pass on here by most for the season based on the Chargers come back game

And Siemian Doesn't get the same treatment for the Bengals game ?

If he continues to struggle for the remainder of the season, I'll be in full agreement.

If he actually takes the Chiefs to the Super Bowl, I think getting rid of him is a pipe dream, so it's a Catch-22 for sure.

Few Teams have the balls of the Ravens and Bucs to dump there Crap QB even after a SB win.

Here is a real Question that I thing should be answered if siemian and alex are having similar seasons how come Den Media is ripping on Siemian and KC media is making excuses for Alex

http://www.foxsports.com/nfl/story/t...n-lynch-111716

Not even most of the Major Media is taking much needed shots at Alex Smith.

Maybe because they know more about pro football that you claim to know? That pro football is not based upon your fantasy football mindset?

If the Chiefs front office and coaches and the Major Media are not have drama queen fits about Smith, perhaps you should take a minute of reflection to ponder your "look at me...I'm smart and y'all are stupid" conduct?

Maclin is more mental. I foresee Alex having a good game vs a weak Tampa team

That's not the Denver media, Dumbo, it's a national sportswriter that lives in Los Angeles.

Notice How I wrote major media Below it.....

I would believe this but it was the same shit with Matt cassel and Damon huard there is a major disconnect with KC media and QB.

You can watch Hard knocks with KC and hear King Carl saying Huard looks to be the QB they need to get to the Superbowl.

Wanted to honestly point something out to you today.

You have been incredibly insufferable lately. At first, I couldn't figure out why.. but now, I know.

Heard the expression, "chop one head off, and another will sprout up"?

This is what you must be doing. You are taking it upon yourself to be the next head.. and it's actually more annoying THAN the last head.

It's absolutely awful.. and whether it proves right or not that Alex Smith doesn't step up and gets tossed out on his ass.. it won't really matter. For he wins or loses.. we ALL lose.. just for having read the same (actually less intelligent) hate mongering regurgitated by the next sprouted head.

The Chiefs aren't built to beat anyone.

They can't ****ing score.

Even against the worst defenses in the NFL...AT HOME...they can't ****ing score.

They are almost completely dependent on their defense to either or score or set the offense up in absurdly good field position so it can get a field goal...maybe a touchdown if the sunshine hit's our dog's ass of a QB.

They are not built to beat anyone that doesn't make stupid mistakes, and you don't find a lot of those teams in the playoffs and certainly not in New England.

And clays back.

That's kind of pathetic man. Jeez.

Your not toeing the True Fan line.... Either fall in line or your time here will be short.

You on the verge of upsetting the defenders of Smith... they will flood the mailboxes of the mods and you will be booted for hurting feelings.

Just back off for a bit, friendly advice...

Is anyone surprised?

It's ****ing Claynus

Not really, The likes of Blackbob are allowed to troll and crap on every thread and stay....

I know... I figured it out and was being sarcastic.

But my issues are more then just Alex I'm not even the one who started bringing up Alex in this thread.

The alex smith ballwashers/homers are so defensive cause you guys don't want to hear about alex the offense or anything just want to blindly enjoy a win if you don't like it then DON'T COME IN TO THREADS when we are talking about the offense or poor coaching.

CLAY IS BACK

Good grief Oaklandhater. You have become as unbearable as Clay. I don't disagree with you but I'm sick of hearing about so off to ignore you go.

Broncos beat them in 2013 with more guys on IR than the above and then lost Chris Harris during the game.

I guess the Pats could turn it over 4 times in scoring range and lose but unless father time catches up with Tommy* I don't see it happening.

1 TD and 4 FG's aren't going to win many playoff games.

Still a lot of football left in the regular season.
