Would have been nice to go undefeated, but I’ll take the 3peat

How do we feel about not finishing with a perfect regular season record?
 

That loss very directly increases our chances at a three peat as it means we sit next weekend and have an extended break while reducing the chances of injuries for a team that really needs the break. Thanks Bills!

Beat the Bills and they could have rested starters for the 2nd half of the Steelers game and all of the Broncos game... except in that case do you rest starters and do what's best for the 3 peat or do you keep guys in for this dumb side quest.

Yeah, in theory, a perfect season is nice... in reality, it would have to mean sticking to the plan and beating the Broncos with Wentz and backups, and it's nice to not discuss that for weeks straight, or for the Broncos to be the team that breaks it at the end of the season.

It's actually a bit surprising to me that a team like the Bills or Lions that love to run up the score on opponents hasn't gone undefeated in the regular season. Given all the cupcake schedules out there, it doesn't seem like a thing that can only happen once every few decades where a team is crazy motivated and gets a little luck in terms of injuries to get it done.... it doesn't really move the needle for me in terms of some crazy impressive accomplishment, I guess.

Regarding the Undefeated season, I am fresh out of 'Give A ****'.

Winning the Lombardi is all that matters in the end.

How do I feel? After all those terrible years we went through honestly I’m just happy to see us winning like this.

IDGAF about a perfect record. I just wish 58 could be alive to see this and bang the drum.

Go Chiefs

I am fine with them not getting it. They already have enough on their plates with trying to threepeat and with all the injuries. They didn’t need the additional stress of trying to go undefeated as well. Had they been 16-0 there would have been a strong possibility that they played starters next week and risking injury. I would rather them threepeat than become the 2007 Patriots.

FYP

would like to see a 20-0 season at some point...

Totally fine with it. If we were currently undefeated I would feel like we need to play starters Week 18 and be all-in on a perfect season. As it stands, having a single loss buys us the opportunity to rest players and get healthy so we can increase our odds of a threepeat.

Don't care about record as long as it gets homefield
advantage through the playoffs offs.
However the same team that kept Chiefs from perfect season could keep them from winning AFC.

There would be too much stress on the players to perform perfectly...

Remember the regular season is just practice for the big dance.
