This is the NFL circa 2016, everybody is fairly mediocre so you could look at any team and say they don't have a lot of quality wins. Heck, the Steelers with Roethlesburger lost to the Ravens team you said isn't a quality win. Heck, even more so, someone could argue that the Chiefs could win this weekend against the Texans and that wouldn't be a quality win either given that the Texans won the AFC's version of the NFC East (i.e. crappy division).

I think the Chiefs are good enough to win this week, and then will likely lose in either Foxborough or Denver.

I have no issues with the Chiefs - I'm just playing my usual devils advocate role

:kisswink:

I would not bet on the Chiefs losing this weekend that for sure
where as Minnesota I'll take them losing by 10 all day long

Not sure either team will be able to score 10 points. Heard it might be -1 F at kickoff... raw temp. :shock:

Washington just signed Cary WIlliams, so naturally I am taking the Packers.

Other picks are Hawks, Texans, and Bengals. :thumb:

That's fine you don't talk crazy smack and make bold statements about final scores before the games
But there are people on here who do
and I can never get them to put there money where there mouth is

My theory is:
If you're going to make a prediction and rebuff it with attitude
You should be willing to put some skin in the game - not much - but enough to support the smack

BTW, heard one of the national gambling guys on sports talk radio this morning say he's taking the Vikings and points because he doesn't think either team will have much luck on offense. 8-)

It really is going to be 0 degrees isn't it..!!!
Initially I figured that was "Minnesota B.S. for effect" but turns out to be true very likely

seems silly to say that they reseed after EVERY round, when the only time reseeding makes a difference is after the wildcard round

I am expecting Pittsburgh to win tonight, which would mean KC travelling to New England next week. The Pats are on a downward slide, I would think the Chiefs would easily win that game.

What gives them a good shot is they are the healthiest team in the playoffs
and they are indeed a good team
And the Vikings will miss the playoffs and the Packers are, at a minimum, a 12-4 team

Vikings go up 9-0. The way this has gone, that might just do it.
