Where do the Chiefs stand in the Division?

[comochiefsfan]

This hurts.

We're clearly behind LA now and probably even with Denver and Vegas.

Hopefully we make the playoffs next year. This blows.

Tyreek isn't that important dude

By that logic, we might as well not play the Bengals... I think the Raiders had a hell of an offseason. I think they have a lot of talent . I think they did better than us acquiring proven talent this offseason. So who knows they could have closed the gap? They won't finish last like many are predicting.

I'd love to keep our streak against the Donks alive but we will probably split but it's inevitable eventually Donks beat us.


I can live with WC as long as we go farther in the playoff than the other two teams of the West. It would kick ass to make it to the AFCCG again and battle it out. Knowing we will be better next year and the year after that this year is all about getting the rookies on defense up to speed and we will dominate the NFL again.

That's why I have KC as a WC team and noted that anything can happen once in. I think by then, the Chiefs will have worked their way through all the new additions to the team. And I think they'll be on a roll. I think the Chiefs will be a much better team at the end of the season then they're going to be at the beginning. And I think they'll sweep the Donx again and continue the streak. We play them twice at the end of the year.

Lots of new faces in new places. A lot of changes. It's all going to take time to come together. And that includes the loss of Tyreek, which I think is a big deal, especially early on. As I said, I think at the end of the year they'll be a much better team than they're going to be at the beginning of the year.

The Raiders have whole new coaches and systems but WE’RE gonna struggle because we’re integrating 3 new WRs and some defensive pieces?

Lulz.

Don't see the logic there....

The Chiefs were a horrible matchup for the Raiders. They couldn't even compete. The Chiefs were blowing out the Bengals in both games before stepping on their own dicks and losing on the final play.

Remember when KC had all new coaches and a new system? And even had Alex Smith at QB? What happened? I just told you my reasons. If you can't see how the Raiders improved themselves this off season, its only because you don't want to.

There is no logic. That was my point.

I don’t think the offense will be a problem. Patrick, Andy and Kelce are still here as well as a top 5 OL. That’s more than enough to have a very good offense.

Defense will take time I’m afraid. I think by November we’ll have a better idea

The difference between KC and the Raiders last year was about 10 TDs over two games.

And you think that adding Davante Adams and a failed coach have erased that gap.

Every team adds and drops a few starters every offseason. Why would it take KC longer to get in sync than a team with a new staff and system?

Btw, we're comparing McDaniels to a HOFer now?

Another example, Bengals 2020 to Bengals 2021. New coach new players new system and what happened?
Btw, I'm not sure Reid was a Hall of Fame coach back in 2013.. Maybe he was. I know he is now though.
Honestly, anybody picks against the Chiefs it drives some of you crazy. I think the Chiefs are going to make the playoffs I just dont think they're going to win the division. I think the Chargers a d Raiders are better. And this is the thread for that type of am opinion, is it not? So we'll agree to disagree.

About right. Id put the Broncos and Chiefs at #1a and #1b but the best team in this division by far and large probably wont even win the division.

Okay, what was the difference the prior year? It was pretty darn close wasn't it? And yet last year the gap opened up tremendously, for a variety of reasons, correct? Anything can happen from year to year and I think the Raiders, thus far, have done more to improve their team than the Chiefs have. It's that simple. It's just an opinion, it's just not the prevailing opinion around here. We'll soon find out.
