Finally the Kansas City Chiefs get a really bad team to walk all over this Sunday…
The New York Giants are a team that seems to have quit on its coach. And QB Eli Manning looks to be on his last legs.
Meanwhile KC has had nearly two weeks of rest and should stack some nice stats on the ailing Giants. Who knows? Kareem Hunt might even have a 100 yard rushing day after being silent for weeks.
Alex Smith should try some downfield throws to Tyreek Hill, Albert Wilson and the other speedy wideouts. Travis Kelce should be dancing in the end zone as well. Most important, will our defense get well and play much better against a joke NFL squad?
The Chiefs are an 11 point favorite on the road – wow – imagine that.
Oakland will face the Pats and likely lose, almost surely ending their post season hopes and making their late season game here with the Chiefs a non factor.
KC has a weak group of teams to play over the next 7 weeks.
If they were a very good team a 7-0 or 6-1 finish would be likely. Unfortunately the Chiefs have slipped and as of today is just a OK, low level playoff team. So going 7-0 or 6-1 seems a tall order without MAJOR improvement on both sides of the line.
KC should win at least 5 more games and end the season at 11-5, possibly better. KC is likely a 3 seed, with a home game in the playoffs. A 2 seed is possible if we win 12 or more games, especially if the Pats drop one.
After last nights dominant blow out of the Titans, the Steelers look to be the clear No. 1 one in the AFC. But things do change, right?
The way KC looks, winning just one playoff game would be a solid finish for this club. A Super Bowl looks almost impossible – we just don’t have that kind of talent today. Our hope is that only two other teams look really better for sure – the Steelers and the Pats. So who knows, maybe things will go our way in the end. Yeah, right.
On a brighter note, Mizzou looks to go bowling after a horrid start.
In fact, next year they could be a top team if their talented young quarterback stays with the Tigers instead of going to the NFL. KU is playing OU – byy bye. And K-State is playing OSU on the road – a likely loss.
The good news is KU basketball got off to a great start by beating Kentucky.
PICKS:
COLLEGE:
MU -2 OVER VANDY IN A TEASE WITH GEORGIA -14 OVER KENTUCKY
PROS:
DETROIT -2 OVER BEARS
NEW ORLEANS -2 OVER WASHINGTON IN A TEASE WITH NEW ENGLAND -1 OVER OAKLAND
HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND ENJOY THE HOLIDAY THURSDAY….(AND MORE FOOTBALL)
“After last nights dominant blow out of the Titans, the Steelers look to be the clear No. 1 one in the AFC. But things do change, right?”
– only each & every mediocre weekend – nothing as it seems; no best team, attrition #1.
“Kareem Hunt might even have a 100 yard rushing day after being silent for weeks.”
– Kerouac narrative influence affirmed: ‘Silent H’ underwhelming results past month…
“Alex Smith should try some downfield throws to Tyreek Hill, Albert Wilson and the other speedy wideouts.”
– other speedy wideouts? Ponderous (but make up for it by having stumps for hands)…
“Travis Kelce should be dancing in the end zone as well.”
– more likely dropped passes, blocks he fails to make and sack races end zone courtesy other juvenile delinquents the NFL; am looking forward to counting how many OLE’s! P*ssy Peters performs on players/plays coming right at him in lieu tackles…
“Most important, will our defense get well and play much better against a joke NFL squad? The Chiefs are an 11 point favorite on the road – wow – imagine that.”
– odds are, errant wishes x 2…
“Oakland will face the Pats and likely lose, almost surely ending their post season hopes and making their late season game here with the Chiefs a non factor.”
– see 1992 SD Chargers as well this week’s ongoing attrition NFL teams for dissent…
“KC has a weak group of teams to play over the next 7 weeks.”
– that ought to be good for about 3 wins, theirs…

Forfeit on account natural disaster (two NFL pretenders, no waiting)

NFL media points out the Chiefs have THE EASIEST SCHEDULE in the league left. KC plays all teams with no winning records outside the Bills who have benched their quarterback and play at KC….so a B team would likely win them all and even have a shot at the 1 seed, but the Steelers a much better team, also have an easy remaining list of AFC teams to trounce…being that they already walked on KC, a tie would go to them..so its very likely they are the 1 seed baring injuries to the quarterback or top players…in KC ties Pats we get the nod cause KC beat them week one…
KC would get a 2nd seed and a 1st round bye if they win out and the Pats lose at least one more game.
In this scenario, KC would almost certainly host the Pats at home in the division round. If they win that game then they would host Jacksonville for the AFC Title game if the Jags beat the Steelers AT Pittsburgh.
Yes, this scenario is unlikely but at least plausible.
AFC Hypothetical Playoff Scenario:
W/C Round: OAK AT JAGS BUF AT NE
Divisonal Round: JAGS AT PIT NE AT KC
AFC Title Game: JAGS at KC
Super Bowl 52: PHI AT KC
Super Bowl 52: KC Chiefs(of course)
Huge K State win!!!
big MU win too…nice..bowl game…
I could really play up that headline about easy chiefs win but i wont. We’re BROS!
Andy reid must have the boys out late last night at the clubs because boy they

3-0! Congrats. And by just 1 point in 2 games. You were due a few breaks. 12-19 for the year.
OK David thanks for tracking it all…tough season, starting to win, but sad about our Chiefs demise. As I wrote after the game and it will be up I suppose in the a.m. its over for this year, barring some changes. I do think its time to start Pat Mahomes, why not. Alex is done, Chiefs are no longer a super bowl contender, hey maybe he puts life back into them. As it stands I just don’t know who they can beat anymore if you can’t beat a 1-8 Giants team? I hate that their games coming up matter little anymore. Hey David lucky we are in a bad division so the fans likely, uneless we just can’t beat anybody, get a playoff game…it will be one only but at least the one, I hope.
no david…he’ 12-20…..he said chiefs would have an “easy” win….he’s hitting .37…a surefire big time loser in vegas. Add vig and its a bloodbath@
I will resume my picks which are way out front of his next week….been working hard!
Just when you think kU football can’t sink any lower, you have their “captains” refusing to shake hands with the OU captains prior to the game. JFC. Really? THAT’S your strategy? Hey, you only got drilled by 38 instead of over 50. Well done.
