As long as we don't bring back the Kicker who shall remain nameless, start Elvis Grbac, and can force a punt, we "should" be OK.

I have zero doubt in my mind that we pass the Texans for a top 2 seed.

Please update.

Here is what Buf and NE have left

Buf - @CLE, @MIA, DEN, @DAL, BAL, @PIT, @NE, NYJ

NE - Bye, @PHI, DAL, @HOU, KC, @CIN, BUF, MIA

Winning teams in bold

Let’s lose to NE intentionally to avoid that... then when we play them again for the AFCCG we beat their asses! (Sort of joking...?)

The OP still needs to be updated. Ravens are #2 right now.

FINE

Good chance going into Oakland game. KC will be 8-3 and Oakland will be 7-4.

Oakland gonna get ass kicked this week by the Chargers.

Yeah I feel it too

I'm a bit scared of the Chargers to be honest, but they've dug themselves pretty deep that it probably won't matter.

They’re still super talented but they’re just not gonna pass KC. They’re inferior in about every way, most importantly coaching.

They MIGHT sneak into the playoffs if a perfect storm comes together. But their schedule is still pretty darn tough.

JFC they're effin terrible. Maybe back before TC they were super talented. They suck now.

They’re still loaded with top notch groups at WR, RB, DE, and the secondary is taking a leap when James gets back.

Definitely better than the Raiders in terms of talent.

The Bears missing that kick at the end of the game could come back to be the lucky break that let SD get into the playoffs.

The Packers and their fans say "Hello".

Just dont overlook them like the Packers did.

Yep, their biggest problem is Rivers. "Very inconsistent ".

With 5 losses already, they’d have to probably lose no more than 2 games the rest of the way.

They have 2 games against us, 2 against the Raiders, Jacksonville, and Minnesota remaining. I would bet they lose at least 2 of those 6 games.

At 9-7, they still may miss the playoffs. The Bills and Colts could both stumble and get to 10 wins.

Dafuq. Totally disagree.

Their RB's are all JAG's. Melvin Gordon, up until Sunday, has looked monumentally awful. Ekeler has proven to be fumble prone and Justin Jackson is in a walking boot.

Mike Williams can't seem to get separation, Keenan Allen is a great route runner but doesn't scare a defense. Neither WR is running away from anyone, and neither are threats beyond just a traditional big bodied WR.

They're down, what 3 CB's and a safety at least? Nassir Adderly is on IR too. That secondary is a hot mess right now, and something tells me by the time James gets back to speed it won't matter anymore.

Yeah Bosa is good and they just got Ingrahm back, but beyond that? Pffffffff

PFFFFFFFFF

PFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

Their O-line is garbage, they can't run the ball worth a shit and father time looks like he's caught up with Phillipe Rios.

That franchise is just one week removed from talking about releasing Rivers this offseason and drafting a QB.

No, just no. Those guys are on life support.

imagine what this pass rush is going to do to Rivers

We still got a shot at the one seed. But we'd likely have to win out from here. Sooo... it's not much of a shot lol.

^I like that

Chris Jones at DE on first down, second, and third and long is a good look. Let the gravy boys eat up the RB's and Jones has all the power to seal the edge. (Dalvin Cook nodding his head in agreement.)

YOU EVER MET ANDY ****ING REID:

Reidian Runs as Chiefs head coach:

9-0
7-1
11-0
8-1
5-0
9-1

Now, unless you think this team's best run this year was 4-0....

....get ready...

REIDIAN RUN VII: RETURN OF MAHOMES

RUN TO THA ONE

AFC Playoff Picture tracker

With the exciting victory over the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday, the Kansas City Chiefs stayed on top of the division on a day where all their rivals won. They also benefited from a huge morale boost, with all three phases of the team proving they can play at a high level and beat a playoff team -- despite heavy injuries.

But the most important victory for their season didn't happen for another seven hours.

1500 miles away, Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens did their best "Emperor has no clothes" impersonation, defeating the New England Patriots on national television and dropping the previously unbeaten Patriots to a meager 8-1.

Neither event gives the Chiefs a boost in the playoff rankings right now; if the season ended today, the Chiefs would hold the number four postseason seed. But these two victories open up some hopes that would have been all but snuffed out if either hadn't taken place.

In fact, there's good reason for Chiefs fans to be optimistic about the team's odds of claiming a postseason bye. For a team as banged up as the Chiefs have been this season, an extra bye week would be heaven sent -- and could mean the difference between a Super Bowl and another playoff exit.

There are two general reasons to be optimistic about the way the rest of the season could play out -- aside from this one.

If we are worthy of the #1 seed we walk into NE and beat them.

If we don't, season probably ends the same way it did last year.

Beside KC Oakland could and should run the table.

Did you watch the Charger game?

Chargers did EVERYTHING they could to give it away and finally did. Lets not get crazy about the Raiders over that. They lose that game 9 times out of 10.

Meh...Kraft has the system gamed. "Worthy" has nothing to do with it...the Jags were beating them up until the refs handed them the game.

Chiefs will go to the SB when the NFL powers "allow" them to go.

This is a Goodell invented system....yeah, games were fixed in the past but this is another level. This whole "profit-driven" shit-show started when he was hired...by Kraft. Not a surprising the Patriots have been an unrealistic beneficiary of this method...

The NFL didn't used to be this ****ed up...all this officiating "controversy" is a by-product of Goodell trying to steer outcomes to it's maximum profitability and "grow the brand" corporate horseshit. It didn't exist....to this level...before his corrupt-ass was hired.

:LOL:

They will get another beating when they come to Arrowhead.

We are probably 8-1 if we didn’t have significant injury problems during our tough stretch. Oh well.

We play 1 winning team in the last 7 games. We should be 12-4 IMO.

I’m fine with the 2 or 3 seed. Ideally the Chiefs get the 2 seed and the Ravens go to NE in the divisional rd.

1 seed will be tough, but we knew we had to pretty much be perfect all year to get that top seed when the schedule came out.

Personally I think the injuries could be a blessing in disguise. We’ve got a much better feel for the depth of our roster and if we can hit the postseason getting healthy with quality rotational players I think it’ll be huge. More so than home field advantage.

:facepalm:

JFC I’ve never seen a team so overrated after such an average performance against a shit team.

Lots of football still to be played. I think NE has the 1 seed but everything after that is up for grabs

I kind of agree

I think they’ll end up 9-7 theyre defense is soo bad and now even more hurt

Chiefs gonna run table though for sure

Agreed. They have one quality win against the Colts. Other than that they’ve beat a bunch of garbage teams and been beaten soundly in their losses. Outside of the Chiefs their remaining opponents average less than 2.5 wins apiece so I can see them winning games — but they are not good. This season’s version of the Browns.

Agree 100%... This could be what gets us “over the hump” in January!

For the number seed to be In play we're gonna need NE to slip up one more time before we go there and we're gonna need to obviously win our next three games. With the Pats having Philly, Dal and The Texans in the next three then surely they will slip up once? If not then they will have earned their top spot that's for sure. I have a feeling they'll lose In Philly tbh.

Season is half over and the Colts and Texans are not looking as strong as they were when we played them. Watt gone for the season. Brissett looking vulnerable with their injuries as well. Our D is vastly improving with our players coming back gradually from injury so the timing and chemistry is working to our favor that we have a decent shot at the No. 2 in spite of losing to IND and HOU IF we win out the rest of the way only to possibly lose to NE(but I see a glimpse of actual hope playing there this time). I see IND and HOU losing more games the rest of the way than our Chiefs when it's all said and done. No.1 seed is a very very long shot and I don't see it happening unless the Pats just crap all over themselves which I don't see happening. We will have to win 2wice there to get the No.2 seed and then again to go to the SB most likely. Which will be just fitting in order to get rid of the "Mahomes can't win the big games against Brady on prime time" mantra that has already started.

12-4 Chiefs
11-5 Hou
11-5 Colts

Forget A top two seed. Be lucky to win the west now.

You're horribly wrong, as usual.

They're not winning the division and I have no interest in watching them getting bounced by the Raiders or Texans in the WC.

Yep. 10 - 6 is most likely how it ends. That may win the division but they won't get out of the 1st round if they do.

:LOL:
12- 4???????????????????????????????????????

Raiders will win the division with their schedule

Happy to get a reset in 2020 and avoid having to play the Texans and Pats/Ravens.

I’m physically ill.

Mahomes, Hill, Kelce and Schwartz are ok.

Everyone else on the roster and coaching staff (and I mean absolutely everyone) can get ****ed.

So how's this looking after today?

OP updated

Currently

1. Patriots 8-1
2. Ravens 7-2
3. Texans 6-3
4. Chiefs 6-4
5. Bills 6-3
6. Raiders 5-4

Chiefs blew any shot at the #1 seed today. And probably the bye, unless someone breaks Lamar.

****.

I give 0 shits about seeding at this point. I just want the team healthy going into the playoffs. (Assuming we make it that far)

https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...356c2083c1.jpg

Texans play the Ravens and Patriots....

There will plenty of seeding drama in next few weeks...remember when the Chargers were gifted that TD as time expired? Pretty much the same shit this year..

ROFL
LMAO

You poor homer fool.

So, if the Titans are so shitty, how come they punched us right in the nuts?

I want to see you post it.

He's a fun factoid...Raiders are the only team with a winning record that has a double digit negative point disparity...at -32.

The Panthers are the only other winning team with negative points at -3. Somehow Oakland is doing the impossible..

Anyone see something strange about that? Strange enough to fill a new stadium?

Oh my ****ing God. Will you ****tards EVER stop blaming anyone but your ****ing team? It’s the refs, it’s a conspiracy, blah blah ****ing blah... now it’s the RAIDERS the NFL wants to succeed? THIS will be the excuse if Oakland wins the west and the Chiefs are a WC or miss the playoffs? ROFL

I can’t believe you people are ready to crown the ****ing Oakland Raiders. We beat the brakes off them in the coliseum. We will beat them again, and they will lose at least two other games because they are the Raiders. This board is getting bad when we have Chief fans crowing the Raiders. The Raiders are a hopeless team that will place no better than second in the AFC west as long as Mahomes is around. I’m pissed about yesterday’s loss but I’m not ready to throw in the towel and crown the worst franchise in football.

Rest of season I’m not expecting a lot team is to hurt. If they make playoffs who the hell knows anyone can get hot for 3 weeks. This season has been one from hell but that’s football shit happens.

BlackOp is too dim to see that thee games, Chiefs, Vikings, and Packers, are the reason for our negative point disparity. Raiders are also near the top of the league in penalties, again. Anything to find a conspiracy though. Raiders have won despite terrible officiating.

Jesus...the Steelers are still alive?

OP updated

I was pretty confident that NO was the best team as of yesterday and we saw what happened to them...

Lots of football to be played. Best to take it all one week at a time.

Well, at least we don’t have to play any AFCS teams throughout the regular season.

Just not our year. Injuries and learning curve for new scheme and massive turnover of defense players too much. We can make playoffs but getting past divisional round would be a major accomplishment. Second round will be at Baltimore or Foxboro and I don’t like us in either.

That's one way to look at it.

Another way is, they ran the ball well and held us scoreless for three quarters...

Maybe the NFL wants to give a parting gift to the city of Oakland :D

Give it a rest. I dont think their that good anyway but they have played the 3rd toughest SOS. I think the Chiefs are # 1 or #2, but the raiders have been competitive in most games.

Bills, barring a collapse, will be the #5, assuming the Raiders winning the AFCW (which I think they will) that leaves the Chiefs battling the Colts and Steelers for the final AFC playoff spot and the Chiefs probably will NOT have any tiebreakers.

It no longer looks good for the Chiefs to even MAKE the playoffs, now when you compare the Chiefs and Raiders' remaining schedules.

P.S. No matter where the Chiefs finish in the division this season they WILL play the Pats next season because the AFCW crosses with the AFCE next season.

Can we at least play them at home

Yes, the game w/ NE would be @ Arrowhead b/c we played them in Foxboro in 2017 (the last time KC played all of the AFCE teams).

I would say we have 2 easy win against the dolphins and jets but we lost to the Titans so who knows

Agreed. The only way we advance to the AFCCG/SB is if PM2 and the offense just balls out to Mars being perfect on almost every possession regardless of how the defense performs.

It’s disgusting.

Not this year but they’re coming.

It may be time to take this out of the OP.

let it ride

i want irrefutable proof that the claynus curse still exists

LOL

Need Houston to pull out a W Sunday

Anyone who believes the chiefs are fighting for the number one seed is living in a world of illusion. They most likely miss the playoffs this year, loss to the chargers this week and Pat's is all but gauranteed. Then the margin of error is one game. They'll have to best the faid in KC, I'm sure Jacobs will go for 140 yards. Even if they win that one the bolts will still most likely steal one in KC to end the year. Defense sucks and mahomtis rapidly becoming a better version of Stafford. He will win you that fantasy game but not an actual game.

Post less.
