The Patriots were 3-5 on the road this season.

The Chiefs only gave up about 17 points per game at home this season.

There is the HFA right there.

Kinda disappointed in you. You seemed to be the only reasonable Pats fan on here...

It is impossible to engage with people who refuse to acknowledge existential truths. Like the other one of you who maintained that Gronk is better than Kelce RIGHT NOW! And then wonders why no one wants to "give him their gameplan"... lol

A 3pt spread is a 1 score game, so yea it can go either way.

I think this matchup favors KC for sure but going against Brady and BB is never ideal.

We have to get the monkey off our back and Mahomes seems to be the remedy this franchise has needed for 30 years.

Just because the home team can lose doesn’t change the fact that it’s an advantage

While the game is being played what is the advantage?

I mean, at this point, with the overwhelming evidence you've already been presented, even if I told you, you would just deny it...

Of course HFA matters but i think BobbyW is trying to point out it is not an overwhelming advantage. The quality of the team, coaching, injuries etc. are all more important. In this case I think HFA is is more important than let's say they were playing the Jax Jags in a notoriously quiet stadium.

The Patriots got destroyed in Jacksonville earlier this year, so even on the road in less hostile environments you acknowledge the Patriots have struggled this season.

That's kinda been a theme with Pats fans on here...

What impact does that have on the actual game?

Slightly off the topic of this game -- but how is it possible that EVERY single SB the Pats are in is essentially a coin flip at the end of the game. 8 straight. Doesn't matter if they are small favorites, big favorites, or underdogs.

That's way more unlikely than the Chiefs run of winning coin tosses.

Who said it was "overwhelming"? He just doesn't want to admit that playing in the AFCE has been any real advantage for NE.

Which isn't true...

Stop. I never said it wasn't an advantage. My point is it doesn't have a direct impact on the actual outcome of a game.

Note: Whomever said Gronk is better than Kelce is an idiot.

9 of the last 10 #1 seeds have made the Super Bowl. HFA matters.

Is this a serious question?
