One brutal shitstorm in primetime doesn't determine the outcome of this game. Actually it might, as our players should be more motivated than theirs. History is on the side of teams looking for revenge, especially in front of a raucous crowd.

The two road games that sandwiched that debacle were beatdowns by mediocre teams. Their loss in Philly was equally embarrassing to ours in Pitt. There's no denying that they've been a far better team at home than on the road. Of course Bell will be difficult to contain. They're saying the same about Hill.

Team is rested and as healthy as it's been all year. Andy had 2 weeks to prepare (and likely prepared for Pitt the entire time). Crowd will be amped. Players will be amped. Smith looking to prove himself. Offense seems to have hit its stride. Roethlisberger likely not 100%. There's a lot working in KC's favor here.

35-17

Lots of good points here. And thank you for sharing this information.

I'd like to add, KC has the turnover ratio in their favor as well. KC is 1st in the NFL in turnover ratio at +16 compared to Pittsburgh that's 11th in the NFL in turnover ratio at +5.

I think it's gonna come down to this. Whoever wins the turnover battle will win the game. I'm only saying this because I believe that stat alone expresses the most significance in terms of winning football games.

Not gonna guess a score, but I feel like Chiefs win by 3-8 points. We come out pumped, healthy as we've been all season, very focused, and ready to get PHYSICAL!! Andy out schemes Tomlin and Haley. Berry game MVP.

Only 3 of his 8 games away this year has he completed more than 60% of his passes. Those three opponents were the Colts, Browns and Redskins.

Not just a one time occurrence obviously. His road struggles date back to last year, too, where the splits were very poor.

This is a trend, a habit at this point. Hopefully the Chiefs can keep it rolling.

Actually corrected my post. He had 3 INTs against the Bills....not 3 TDs.

Chiefs win 27-17

Ben throws two huge picks, but Bell still runs for around 100.

No it's not . We're a much better team than we were in week 4. Ben will not be able to scramble and our pass rush is gonna kick his ass. I think reid has a plan to contain Bell too.

Chiefs 42

Steelers 27
Chiefs 17

...and seriously hope I'm wrong and we can create those turnovers and huge plays we'd need.

As for weather, I don't know. If it forces the Steelers to run more, that could be a bad thing. Although Big Ben can carve us up, he COULD also make mistakes. Game-changers. If we don't stop Bell -- and we've shown ZERO signs all year we could do that -- how are we ever gonna get off the field?

never thought of bn as apresiccion passer
just a guy that could chuck it up

DaneMcCloud 01-10-2017 09:17 PM

My prediction is that the Chiefs win

BlackOp 01-10-2017 09:18 PM

BigRape is #10 in total QB rating at 66.5, Smith is #11 at 66.1...interesting.

Steelers averaged about 1/2 a point more per game this season...yet KC had the 4th toughest schedule and Pittsburgh had the 27th. People are acting like they are SO much more dangerous than KC. Chiefs beat Atlanta in their house and they were the 8th best offense in NFL history.

They are more media hype than world beaters...their most impressive road win, in the last half of the season was at Indy w/o Luck...28-7. They are not a great road team...at all.

This also goes back to last year. Iirc, he's had 3 good road games the past 2 years.

Not a prediction, but I want one of two things to happen. I want to either win, or to get embarrassed with Smith throwing multiple picks. If we can't advance in the playoffs (and I hope we can), I would hope that Smith is embarrassing enough to finally motivate some action in the draft at QB.

Knowing the Chiefs he'll have one Sunday.

Demonpenz 01-11-2017 03:11 AM

Lots of black and Steelers win. Santos has a chance to win it but misses his 3rd field goal of the day.

rico 01-11-2017 05:07 AM

I have a gut feeling that we may see "bad Ben" Sunday. I think we will win.

Warrior5 01-11-2017 06:15 AM

The last playoff game won at Arrowhead was 8 Jan 1994, against...

Pittsburgh, 27-24 in OT.



Waaay too many heartbreaks since then, and it's time to break this 23-year old curse.

Chiefs - 43 Steelers - 14 total reversal of the regular season game in Pittsburgh. Chiefs get touchdowns from all 3 units.

ChiefEd 01-11-2017 07:22 AM

As decent as the Steelers are, I think we win this one handily. Between the extra rest, motivation, Pitts road issues, and the fact that we are a damn good team I see us with a 2+ possession lead most of the game. We pull our starters in the fourth and they score a garbage TD to make the score look closer than the game was.

31-17 Chiefs. Somewhat rested after a well-controlled game and ready for the trip to Foxboro...

Hammock Parties 01-11-2017 09:16 AM

The weather conditions are terrible for the Chiefs and their finesse offense vs the Steelers elite rushing attack.

Also, if it's going to be a wet field, it's going to be hard for either team to get a pass rush, and the Steelers can take advantage of that more than we can, especially since Ben is maybe the best bad-weather QB in the NFL.

If the Chiefs can get a huge-game changing play out of Hill I think they'll win, but my gut says Steelers 24, Chiefs 17.

Demonpenz 01-11-2017 09:44 AM

I would rather watch KCWOLF and OWEN HART in a Zipline race than watch Alex Smith in the playoffs.

Although I hope I am VERY VERY wrong. I sadly picked the Steelers in a close one. I also, hope I am wrong in that the CHIEFS win (and win big).

The Steelers are second in the NFL in red-zone efficiency in home games and they’re 27th on the road. That's bottom five territory....

That..coupled with the stats you posted, is a pretty stark difference. BigRape sounds bi-polar....2/3 of his TDs come at home. That's a large sample size too...3 seasons.

Agreed. KC has the #1 ranking in takeaways.. and my guess is that the KC offense is probably one of the better teams on drives to open the 3rd quarter.

Never. One, you want to try and dictate field position from the outset in getting them to punt and flipping the field to give you a better starting position. Second, the 2nd half is more important. You've had a chance to see how they've gameplanned throughout the 1st half and can come out after halftime with adjustments to better attack on offense and adjust on defense. Having 1st possession in the 2nd half means you'll have a much higher likelihood of getting more possessions than they will in the 2nd half, and since the end of the 4th quarter matters significantly more than the end of the 2nd quarter, you want to maximize your opportunities when there are more valuable and at a time when your strategy is better dictated by taking into account the time remaining in regulation. There are a few more reasons why logically and from a strategy standpoint you want the ball on offense to start the 2nd half, but the above is more than enough to justify why you shouldn't deviate from this outside rare rare circumstances.
