Rex Ryan: I’ve seen teams like the Chiefs get bounced in round 1

[SHOWTIME]

He just poked the bear…

"I've seen teams like this before ... They get beat in the first round."

"Josh Allen is the most talented QB ever. He's seperated himself from John Elway and Mahomes. And right now it feels like Philly and the Bills are the favourites to go to the superbowl". Colin Cowherd

"Josh is the best player in the league and Lamar Jackson right now is better than Mahomes. I can't see anyone beating Buffalo in the AFC". John Middlekauff

No mention of Buffalo's terrible defense or them getting beat last week?? Just glazing Josh Allen and ignoring the facts. It's also interesting how a man who has already won two mvp's, three rings, three superbowl mvp's, has broken record after record and currently has the best record in the league whilst also being a back to back champ, continues to get disrespected like this.

Allen's numbers aren't even the best in the league. Lamar, Burrow etc are better. But it's clear there's a bitterness when it comes to Pat and the Chiefs. So much so that a player's failures are completely overlooked (apparently none of the Bills playoff loses are on Allen) in order to hype them up over a team and player who has defied the odds for five years. And I'm sure more of this will be spewed tomorrow.

But keep em coming.

Good for Josh. When his career is over, he can oust Rivers as the best QB to never go to a Super Bowl

[UChieffyBugger]

So this week's "best team in the league" according to Rex and Damian Woody is the Eagles. And one other guy said the Bills.

Shannon Sharp and Ocho were also glazing Buffalo and Josh. Ocho picks them to go to the superbowl too. When they talked about KC it was nothing but negatively and mocking our o-line.

Skip Bayless "Eagles are gonna win the superbowl. Eagles won free agency and won the draft. They gave the best defense in the league".

The back to back champs with the best record in the league are scrubs yall

[Monticore]

Seeing all this glazing of the bills , you can see how easily a fanbase can get hated pretty quick it’s no wonder everyone hates us lol but I think it’s time for this team to feed off the hate like they did in the playoffs last year.

And we won it all. Mahomes has been in the AFCCG every year he's been the starter. Like at some point the assumption has to be that the Chiefs are going to go deep into the playoffs until they aren't.

On top of this the three teams behind KC are all worse versions from last year. The Bills, Ravens, and Texans all have less talent and are worse versions of themselves than last year. Hell, the Bangles won't even be in the playoffs.

The Steelers are the only team to have actually improved over last year and an over the hill Wilson is their QB. This year's playoff run won't be close. It'll be an ass ripping and rectum prolapsing beat down once this team has the green light because the games actually matter...

It is what it is. KC’s in the playoffs and there is no QB/team with more experience than Mahomes/KC. Let all those guys get their regular season accolades, because just like last year only one QB hoisted the Lombardi and he wears red.

To make/possibly win a SB an AFC team has to overcome Mahomes/KC. The past 6+ years have shown how big of a challenge that is. He’s 15-3 in the playoffs and two of those losses were to a QB who no longer plays.

Could this be the year that someone finally gets past KC? Sure. But I always will take the playoff team with the most experience until they are eliminated. KC showed that last year as they knocked off Buffalo in Buffalo, beat an unbeatable Ravens team in Baltimore and then the “more talented” 49ers team that they were supposed to lose to.

These guys are pushing a product. Hair in can gets you laid

Well....for one they're not wrong.

The Chiefs aren't really playing well, but still winning. Which is great, for sure.

But banking on them doing what they did last year is also a little.....well unlikely. There was a reason that was an unprecedented run thru the playoffs.

I don't think it is and I think people tend to rewrite history once it happens to make it seem like we knew it was going to happen all along.

2022, mentions of the Chiefs having an elite offense, so of course they were going to make a run. Well, let's rewind to that awful Titans OT win, losing to the Bengals, squeaking out a couple other wins, the terrible OT win against the Texans, the concerning win over the Broncos.

2023, They had an elite defense. Well, tell people that in mid-December last year when they gave up 30 to the Packers, and we all know the level of meltdown around here after Christmas Day.

I think we felt relatively good in 2021 after the offense un****ed itself, but they also lost to the Bengals at the end of the year.

So, it's probably been since 2020 we haven't had a major December meltdown on here.

At some point we should probably be looking in the mirror and maybe not expecting the worst.

[O.city]

Good point Bearcat.

The 2022 season gets a bit whitewashed, but they struggled coming down the stretch and weren't exactly lighting teams up but they were winning.

It's the NFL. All the "winning 1 score games etc" stuff rings hollow when most games are in fact 1 score.

Well, the teams that aren't us in the AFC side of the playoffs aren't as good as last year. So that helps. Except odds are Josh won't implode to the degree Lamar or Tua did last year in the playoffs. The next best team, the Bills, have a ****tarded defense. ****sburgh is working off a QB that just got paid to go away from his last team. Ravens defense has fallen off substantially. Texans have massive warts. The Chargers actually have (had, probably) the best defense in football, and got 40 put on them by Baker. Donk actually puts together a decent balanced game, but are on a rookie game manager type QB.

That's not nearly the gauntlet that it was last year. If we make the Super Bowl, the Lions or Eagles are probably commensurate with the 9ers.

This kind of reminds me of that 2021 stretch where they'd have one really good drive in a game (usually the first one) and then would look like ass the rest of the game. And I'm not sure we even saw that in many games last season....even if the offense wasn't great in the playoffs, they stopped the turnovers and Mahomes had far better confidence in his receivers (specifically thinking about a couple MVS throws in the Bills game, for example).

And I know we deep dive around here and talk ourselves into all kinds of stuff that sounds kind of dumb, when it comes to saying it looks more like practice than winning games, etc... but damn this shit is just impossible to explain sometimes.

And damnit, I want to pay for playoff tickets this year (for the first time since 2021) with confidence.... and while I'm still confident, maybe just put up 40 on the Texans to seal it.

Yeah, there's no Baltimore of last year, but don't forget the Bills were also 7-6 at one point last year. So we've kinda white washed it again.

Until someone knocks this team out, I'll always figure we've at worst got a punchers chance. But damn, the offense just looks like hammered ass.

[jerryaldini]

I used to enjoy watching Get Up but Ryan has rendered it unwatchable. By the way Bruschi and Orlovsky are the biggest Mahomes/Chiefs boosters on there.

I do think the Eagles are the most complete team in the league despite Hurts's and their coach's shortcomings. Their D is playing great and Brown and Barkley are a tough duo to face. It would be another great super bowl.

[Bearcat]

Yeah, every year the rest of the league gives me as much or more hope than the Chiefs... and then some years (like the Bengals beating the Bills for us), they don't even run into all of their biggest challenges.

I'd love for nothing more than the Ravens or Steelers to knock out the Bills in the Divisional round... and even if it doesn't happen, the Bills' defense cured the Chiefs' offensive issues last season and could do it again.
