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.

Wat. We would intercept Jackson at least 4 times.

It's been so weird rooting for the likes of Baltimore, Green Bay, and Seattle. That said, my second favorite team is whoever is playing New England, Pittsburgh, or LA

Yay Panthers, Titans, Raiders.

Yep! I could see the Panthers winning... that is about it.

Saints should help bury the Bengals too i think.

If KC is by some turn of events like this down late, and it requires the D to get a stop against a playoff caliber offense, I don't see that happening.

Right now we have a guy that completely hides Andy's complete shit situational football intellect. Mahomes is so good, calling anything you want works. Those qb designed runs though, that's just pure, unadulterated dumb****ery right there.

I mean, WHY?

Someone should explain risk/reward to this dumbass. Hunt, Ware, Hill, Watkins, plenty of dudes available to run the ball.

Only one MVP qb.

It adds another wrinkle to our offense.

It's not like Reid's out here calling designed QB keepers. They're option plays, many of them with two or three options, and he trusts Pat not to get himself blasted into next week.

You've got to let the dudes play. Can't wrap the man in bubble wrap.

Chiefshrink · 11-05-2018, 06:12 PM

We definitely cannot afford to lose a game because the Pats have the tie-breaker.

You need to get on the Mahomes train already

What does Mahomes have to do with the defense yielding the game at the end? I'm on the Mahomes train. He doesn't play freaking defense.

I guess if you pick and choose games that suit the narrative it’s all easier. Ignore Chiefs wins and focus on the losses and our organization has been an epic failure.

Because its content is correct. For those two games. I didn't author the post, I just agreed with it. If you have a problem with the omission of other games from that post, I suggest you talk to the person that wrote it. I just agreed with it.

Sure, they could have won. But EVERYBODY knew New England was going to score. Or are you going to try and tell me that there weren't 100 instantaneous "they scored too quick" posts right after Tyreek scored?

And Mahomes is gonn flip the ****ing script.

Eagles 2017 defense >>>>>> Chiefs 2018 defense. It's that simple.

But let's say the Chiefs lose two of those; the only thing that flips is the Pats have the #1 seed and the Chiefs have the #2. They're still getting a home game and a bye.

If the Seahawks are a challenge, this season is ****ed.

I'm probably the only one but I think that AFC list is better than the NFC.

Chiefs and Patriots vs Rams and Saints is a tossup.

Steelers, Texans and Chargers are better than the 3-6 seeds from the NFC.

We'll be fine. the chiefs are awesome!

Didn’t we have the lead late in the 4th?

How did we not almost win?

Seriously, don't be stupid.

The very SECOND Tyreek scored, the game thread ERUPTED into "we scored too fast".

EVERYBODY here knew what was going to happen. I was one of the FEW who said to take the score and take your chances with Brady. I was wrong. They lost.

Everybody here was freaking out when they scored "too soon" but of course in hindsight, everybody wants to pretend that it didn't happen EXACTLY they way it did happen.
