who gives a flying rats rear end?

The Chiefs suck and ANY ranking below 16 would reflect that. The Chiefs are not very good. It is a degree of bad you are concerned with? Bad is Bad

12. Chargers 2-3

19. Broncos 2-3

20. Raiders 2-2

25. Chiefs 2-3

Uh, with the exception of a garbage time touchdown the Chiefs were basically shut out at home against a middle of the pack team.

I don't know. Jacksonville might be the 3rd or 4th best team in the AFC right now. That's just how the AFC is... they're ranked 6th there in that power poll, and it might be right.

Jacksonville is a really, really, really good team - a team we don't match up well against at all.

Now Cincinnati...

This is a team we can beat.

Jacksonville is dominant one week and then will lose to a shitty team the next, thats their MO. Unfortunately for us, we faced the good jags.

It was true under Garrard as well. This is hardly the first time Garrard has started, he has played for significant amount of time the previous two seasons as well. The Jags still exhibited the same inconsistency with him.

Its too early to tell if they have changed, they've played four games and did lose to the Titans.

**Bearcat** · 10-09-2007, 01:33 PM

They aren't going to move teams 20 slots in a week.. that would be as irrational as, well, Chiefsplanet.

The Broncos were 2-0, lost to 2 good teams, and got blown out.. they moved down 9 spots for getting embarrassed at home. We were where we deserved to be last week, having moved up 7 spots for beating the Chargers. We get thumped at home, we move down 4 spots.. not as much as the Broncos, because Jax > SD. If the Broncos had lost like that in week 1, they would have dropped 20 spots.... the same difference between Michigan/App State and USC/Stanford.

We are the worst team that's no more than 1 game within .500, and I think that's about right.

True statement.

InChiefsHeaven · 10-09-2007, 01:00 PM

It is funny that all 4 teams have 2 wins, and we beat the Chargers who thumped the piss out of the Donks, giving them their 2nd home loss in a row...and the Donks' wins were squeaker luck jobs at best...

...but they are 6 slots better than us...

...pay no attention folks...nothing to see here...

Hootie · 10-09-2007, 01:20 PM

and the Titans are also a pretty good team, or at least they can be a good team as long as VY doesn't throw three picks...they almost beat Indianapolis.

The AFC South is far better than any other division right now. If you wanted my top 5 in the AFC... it'd be NE/Indy/Pitt/Jax/Tenn.... and three of those come from the same division. And to be honest, I'd probably rank Houston 6th. 4 of the top 6 teams in the AFC.

I think that might be what's throwing everything off and making the AFC look weird and unbalanced. Other than New England and Pittsburgh, every other non-AFC South team looks really flawed right now.
