Football Playoff status & early predictions - Page 3

The way the AFC currently sits, it’s clear who the haves and have-nots are. I think the current seedings are pretty much how it’ll end up.

1. Chiefs
2. Patriots
3. Steelers
4. Texans
5. Chargers
6. Bengals

The NFC picture is much tougher. I’m going with...

1. Rams
2. Saints
3. Vikings
4. Eagles
5. Panthers
6. Bears

This would set up Cincy @ Pitt, SD @ Houston, Chicago @ Minny, and Carolina @ Philly. I think the Chargers and Panthers would win as road teams, setting up a next round of SD @ KC, Pitt @ NE, Carolina @ LAR, and Minny @ NO. That would be four awesome semifinal games with eight worthy teams.

KC led in the 4th quarter 33-30

Brady officially was credited with a 4th quarter comeback

Game was anything but in control

The point is that KC can beat anyone and KC fans need to accept this

A 4th quarter comeback that everybody in the USA knew was going to happen. That's the problem.

The Chargers are good. No doubt. But I think people are overvaluing their win in Seattle based on old facts.

Yes, winning on the road is always tough. Seattle is a hostile environment for sure.

But you guys, the Seahawks were TERRIBLE yesterday. Other than the first drive and at the end when the Chargers dropped back into a shell, they had NO offense. Wilson made terrible choices, threw one of the worst pick-sixes I've ever seen, ran backwards all day, missed open receivers, etc. They were penalized all over the place, and the defense, while still good, isn't what it once was.

We beat the Chargers at Arrowhead West, we'll beat them at Arrowhead, and if we have to, we'll beat 'em again in the playoffs.

Chargers are on borrowed time.

Why Not? · 11-05-2018, 12:10 PM

Chargers cannot beat KC with Andy as the HC. Have a quick glance at the won loss record between these two teams since Andy has been here. Rams are very beatable. They struggled with the awful Seahawks and anyone who has watched football the past decade knows they were losing the Packers game if Ty Montgomery wasn’t a broke dick. I’m certainly not counting the Rams as an automatic win but many(not necessarily here but nationally)are counting it as an automatic Chiefs loss and I don’t see it that way at all

Pats at Steelers is hardly a gimme for the Pats. Weirdly they seem to suck half the time at Miami as well.

I'm pretty confident about the Rams game. Probably still the least confident of all the remaining games, but confident nonetheless. Mahomes > Goff, Hill > Cooks, Watkins > Kupp, Kelce > Whoever their TE is. Gurley is maybe better than Hunt, but not by much.

It'll be a fun one, that's for sure.

This is true.

I also agree with carcosa on the Rams game and the Chargers aren't winning at Arrowhead.

I think this team can finish 15-1. Realistically speaking.

I believe they WILL finish 15-1 and WILL go to the SB. **** the bullshit. We would HAVE to validate a record like that or else we still don't get respect.

New England was completely in control. Even when they had fewer points.

Derp.

"And once again, the Patriots show how self-disciplined they are with zero committed penalties in a 51-48 win over the Kansas City Chiefs here in the AFC Championship Game. The Chiefs were flagged 32 times for 5287509285709571 yards."
