Chiefs Is there any team that we do not want to face early on IF we get the - Page 3

number 2 or 3 seed? Still a lot to shake out for sure but it might be that the 3 seed might be better or vice versa depending on the shake out after next week. Does any team/teams concern you regardless of seed ??

Thoughts ??

TBH only worried about Cin and Buff.

If buffalo wins tonight we are the two seed regardless. I think that's why the NFL put us on Saturday.

No, if Buffalo loses next week against the Patriots and we win, we’re the 1 seed.

Yeah, I believe there is still a path to the #1, #2 and #3 seed for all of BUF, KC and CIN. Every team has something to play for these last two weeks (well, last week for KC now).

Ah yeah. I knew I probably overlooked something. Carry on.

Yeah, I just put a bit more thought into it.

-BUF gets the #1 seed if they win out. Simplest path there. They hold their own destiny.

If this happens, KC is locked in at the #2 regardless because CIN would have dropped one to BUF and they could no longer tie our record. It'd be #1 BUF #2 KC #3 CIN.

-KC gets the #1 seed if they win out and BUF loses just one game out of their remaining two @CIN and NE.

Pretty simple here as well. If KC wins and BUF loses just one more, we end up at 14-3 and they're, as well as CIN, capped at 13-4. No tiebreakers necessary. It'd be #1 KC and seeding for BUF and CIN depend on who wins their head-to-head and how they fare in their final games (both of which would be against division rivals).

-CIN gets the #1 seed if they win out and KC loses @LV.

This would lead to a three-way tie at the top with all three teams having 13-4 records. CIN wins the head-to-head tiebreaker over BUF/KC and BUF wins the head-to-head tiebreaker over KC. In this scenario, it'd be #1 CIN #2 BUF #3 KC.

The way we have been playing, I'm worried about all teams.

We MUST STOP the turnovers, ST ****ups and 3rd down penalties on defense.

If we fix all 3, we will beat everyone.

The Raiders are going to be out for blood next week. The rivalry isn't as intense as it used to be but there's certainly no love loss.

**DaFace** · 01-02-2023, 10:36 AM

I posted this in a different thread, but this site gives probabilities for the various scenarios. Based on that, our potential opponents are:

50% - Bye
28% - Dolphins
9% - Steelers
6% - Ravens
5% - Patriots
2% - Jaguars

Damn, we are 50/50 to get home field.

That's pretty damn good odds TBH.

Their model is pretty simplistic (just using W-L ratio I believe), but still. Looking around online, it's generally in the range of 45-50% Chiefs, 40-45% Bills, and 5-10% Bengals for the 1 seed.

It's mostly just driven by the fact that the Bills have to win twice to get the bye, and we just have to win once.

Chargers are playing good football and they have Joey bosa back. I really hope we avoid them in the first round.

tredadda · 01-02-2023, 10:49 AM

1. Chargers- Because they are getting healthy and always play KC close. Since Herbert arrived every game is close.

2. Bengals- KC might have had a chance at winning the last three games, but they couldn’t do it.
