Easily is a little bit of a stretch… would’ve had to get their feet in on that catch against the chiefs, convert the two point conversion, and not blow it against the raiders. Heck of a lot closer to 0-3 than 3-0. the much more important game thing is bollocks imo…the 1 seed is insanely important and the jets are lookin good enough to push us for the division.. every conference game is extremely important

Yea idk what you’re supposed to do with aj klein against the chiefs lol. Not sure any dc/hc is pullin that situation off

I’d say December/early January champs lol we’ve lost too many season openers recently to be September champs

The afc west is so flippin weird…chargers look good then they’re bad, broncos look awful then they’re good lol hard to tell if anyone could steal one from the chiefs at this point. Chiefs haven’t felt like they’re in their own tier to me as of late so I have a little bit of trouble handing them guaranteed wins…if they weren’t considerably healthier than the majority of their playoff opponents last year I don’t think they’re pulling off that Super Bowl run. I swear they’ve got voodoo dolls or something Dre greenlaw tearing his Achilles just walking onto the field was crazy 😁 then kittle tore his shoulder

Dolphins are pretty complicated…we were beating them with or without tua finishing out the game and the fact that tua is out an extended period is burying them in these rankings. I think the cardinals are getting underrated pretty heavily also…close losses to bills and lions and beat the pants off the rams…that’s a pretty tough opening schedule. Man idk…this is gonna be weird responding pretty similarly to two different posts lol but I think the dolphins with tua (we were winning that game if tua finished it regardless) are a 9 or 10 win team and I think the cardinals are gonna shake out to be a pretty good team too. The sample size is just too small to look at opponent win-loss. Cardinals have had a bit of a meatgrinder schedule early with three playoff teams from last year. close losses to Buffalo and Detroit and an absolute dismantling of the rams. I think our wins are getting diminished for whatever reason…the jags look pretty bad I’ll give the talking heads that one lol

We lost the opener two years ago and only lost two games the rest of the regular season lol last year not only were we pretty beat up on the defensive side but the chiefs were freakishly uninjured for the playoffs…everything always seems to go their way it’s ridiculous edit nope I’m an idiot we lost the opener last year and three years ago 😁 time flies

Might have to come out of betting retirement for this one….don’t think the ravens defense is quite what it used to be and if they’re missing some olinemen it’s an uphill battle

As an example of it not being a death sentence? I might hold off on that until the end of this season lol

The defense got nuked by injuries in London then when Douglas got acclimated at corner we righted the ship. We had one of the worst defenses in the league for a stretch there I know people say it’s just an excuse but we really get boned with defensive injuries for the playoffs year in and year out. I don’t think the chiefs are in their own tier anymore but they were the healthiest team in the playoffs last year by a wide margin

that really seems to be how it goes…the qbs from big time programs have pass catchers that are just so physically talented that they don’t have to work too hard

That’s a lot of restraint talking about someone who tweeted ‘you sure’ in response to claims Allen would be fine without Diggs

Honestly not a bad idea…a coordinator getting a head coaching job of a bad franchise is almost always a career death sentence so he may not want to take the risk

Honestly it’s getting ridiculous…i don’t understand how McDaniel doesn’t get torched by the media. The guy cannot beat a good team and it’s not like they’re losing shootouts consistently. Frequently their offense looks completely anemic against good teams

I don’t even think he’s a good play caller lol anyone can call plays when you have huge physical mismatches all over the field against bad defenses. That offense routinely doesn’t show up against good opponents though which is a pretty obvious sign that there’s big time coaching/scheme issues if they were losing shootouts to the KC,BUF,BAL,CIN,SF type teams I’d give McDaniel a little more credit but that is usually not what happens I don’t think he’s making it to 2028, he couldn’t even beat good teams when his team was at its peak and they’re headed for cap hell and haven’t had a lot of early draft picks to replace guys. They’ve been propped up by always beating bad teams but I think we’re gonna start to see them lose some of those types of games

Not a clown show but they are a completely different offense against good opponents which makes them overrated I’d say. They ended up losing that game you’re talking about because they were shut out in the second half. They forced 3 turnovers and lost the game 21-14 i think they’ve scored over 21 points against an eventual playoff team 3 times in mcdaniel’s tenure and have a record of like 3-13 against those teams with two of those wins coming in back to back weeks early in 2022 before there was a lot of film on them. All three of those wins were extremely close games. they have never once gone out there and won comfortably against a playoff team so who cares that they can drop 70 on the broncos

I think he’s talking about limited in variety of what they can do to you. Teams that can disrupt the timing on those quick throws don’t really have any trouble with that offense that has so much of a cap investment. Seems like they very rarely cracked 20 points against winning teams which just isn’t good enough when your strength is offense…doesn’t even matter that they’re dropping 50+ against terrible teams

They blew the whole rebuild on that Bradley chubb trade imo…then really jumped the shark on the tua extension really haven’t outperformed what Flores was able to accomplish by much and Flores still had a ton of draft capital to spend when he was fired

He better be right if he’s gonna make a tweet like that and it is looking wrong 🤣 must sting extra because his team got absolutely throttled this week with him getting a bulk of the targets

Chris jones absolutely annihilated a pro bowl offensive tackle and backed him right into josh while he was throwing on that play that would’ve been a wide open td rescuing the chiefs yet again. mahomes wouldn’t move the ball at all on that playoff chiefs defense…that’s the difference. I don’t think the chiefs offense of the last year plus would hit double digits on that defense

The player vote was definitely motivated by ‘how can he talk so much sh*t when he hasn’t won anything’ lol. I don’t think anyone that voted him most overrated genuinely believed it without factoring that in

Obviously we’re all guessing what’s gonna happen in the future here haha but if we extrapolate what the chiefs offense has done into the future I think mahomes is gonna fall out of the goat talks personally. That offense seems to go as Kelce goes and he looks to be declining to my eye. Things are starting to look difficult for them. Without sneed I don’t think that defense is quite good enough to carry them consistently but I guess we have to wait and see Can’t fault people for keeping the crown on mahomes if they keep winning but if they start to lose some games it’ll be on their offense for sure

What josh did to the chiefs defense in the playoffs last year was significantly more impressive than what mahomes did to the bills and it’s really not close imo if we’re strictly talking qb vs qb. The ‘whether it’s joshs fault or not’ is nonsense. The injury gods smiled on the chiefs and gave them aj klein to exploit and they still only snuck by. Josh would’ve absolutely nuked the chiefs if you swapped Bolton for an aj klein level player. I get the whole ‘injuries are no excuse/next man up’ shtick when it’s reasonable but that was outrageous. chiefs are very fortunate to not be 1-4 against the bills in their last 5 with the only win being 13 seconds rn. I genuinely don’t think mahomes has been as good as Allen the last year plus.

Its crazy they talk that up so much when it just doesn’t happen in the playoffs anyway…he’s got 4 ints in 10 playoff games and 2 were almost entirely on the wrs, 1 was a desperation INT against cincy

Ravens will be the toughest with our defensive injuries I think…I trust mcd to put something together that gives stroud problems even if we don’t get anybody back by then. Jets I have honestly no idea what’s gonna happen…their defense has looked a little shaky against the run when not playing the patriots

2-1 would be good…1-2 would be fine if that win is against the jets
