So what’s been billed as the best day of football ever has so far given us a blowout CFP game and a Chiefs rerun we’ve literally seen 13 times this season. 

Every Chiefs game is the exact same

After those phantom penalties in the first half, refs did nothing the second half.

 

2nd seed it is.

Well guys lets win the next two and we'll get our "bye" week @ NE to end the season.

 

My guess is Chiefs lose on the short week, Christmas Day on the road at Heinz Field, and then pull out a last second win week 18 at Denver... Thus screwing the Bills out of the ability to rest their starters.

 

None of the week 18 start times are set it appears, so to ensure this, the league will almost certainly have the Bills play at 1 and the Chiefs late in Denver… Either way, the game being in Denver, it won’t be a 1pm start.

Let’s go Steelers!

Yup.  I guess people can cling to the 1 seed hopes, but I’m done with it.  
 

Next best thing is giving the Chiefs a matchup against the Ravens off the bye and keeping our path limited to only one of them.

I ***** hate the Chiefs.  They have that same "just enough to win" bullsh**" luck/ref support that the Pats got for over a decade.  I don't know how anyone can like them.

Better days ahead. A reason exists they didn't go 12 deep in the CFB playoffs before. SMU and Indiana, are you kidding me? Great seasons, but Alabama, Old Miss, hell, even Florida, would route those schools.

The announcer just said Patrick Mahomes found the last digit of pi.

That was a case of the Texans losing it over the Chiefs winning it. But it's always the way.

Agreed.

 

I just want the Chiefs playing the Ravens.

If the one seed is still in play, they may have both games start in the 4pm window.

Super Bowl recipe:  some solid D, some dumb luck, a few plays on offense to move the chains, no turnovers.

Which he qualified by saying I'm probably understating this....

Yup, and for me, just a Ravens loss to the Steelers shows me again that they’re mortal.

He played up that injury. The way he walked off was BS.

 

Fine with the 2nd as we barnstorm the playoffs!!

Let KC deal with them and we will deal with KC

[Miyagi-Do Karate]

Not the worst thing ever. This may guarantee the broncos as the 7.

That is just a nasty rivalry. It almost speaks nothing to how good or bad those teams are.  

 

and take the under ......

Yeah, it might almost be best the Chiefs just win on Christmas, then they take two weeks off and come out rusty in the Divisional round, and Bills still get to rest starters week 18.

As long as the Bengals don't find a way to sneak in, I'm good.
