Chiefs Late night bullshit: Credit where it's due for this Chiefs team.

I get all the concerns Chiefs fans have with this team right now, especially considering the PTSD we all have from the AFCCG. The run defense, the corners, the run game, I get it all. I am skeptical this team has what it takes to stop the Pats.

But look at the first six weeks of this season. Hell, the first seven.

@JAX, albeit against Minshew
@OAK, when we were their Super Bowl
BAL, the 3rd best team in the AFC
@DET, a pretty damn good team who played their best

Now we're about to host a fairly stout Indianapolis team, followed by a nightmare matchup against Deshaun Watson and the Texans. Then it's a short week to play in Denver, though obviously we should spank that team.

So I'm not interested in the scarecrows the Pats have played at QB so far; if the Chiefs emerge from this opening stretch at 7-0, then they are the favorite. This is the worst stretch we'll see on this schedule until December, and the Chiefs have so far gone 4-0 with three of those tough games on the road.

Only the Detroit game was even close.

We all know this team for real. But going 6-0 (and almost certainly 7-0) makes this team the AFC favorite, whether we beat out New England's cake schedule for the 1 seed or not.
