^ wanna bet on who ends up going further between the Pats and Chiefs Ali? Or maybe something crazier.

AFC championship? Super Bowl? That defense will keep us in all games even against the broncos who many people think are going to win it all. Infact we are built to beat the Broncos. I don't know what kind of action we could run for those things though. :)

Denver looks good and they get Vonn Miller back real soon, next week? And Champ Bailey will be back as well to bolster the defense. What does not bode well for the Chiefs and Alex Smith is he threw 2 INTs to a beat down Giants secondary in a game that wasnt close. Other than that, the 2 KC-Denver games should be fireworks.


If you are a fan of a team going against the Vikes, you hope against hope that if AP is playing he just has an off day. For the first time in I dont know how long I can say this.....the Steelers' D stinks. When you make overhyped Matt Cassell look like Brady or Manning, you've got problems. The only glimmer of hope was Bell actually looked decent when he got the ball. Too bad Ben had to pass so much because the D couldnt stop the big scoring plays or we might have seen a little a more out of the rookie. Oh well, top 10 draft pick is within reach now.
 
I agree that the Broncos might lose in the first round again. They are shining too bring too soon. It's all about getting hot at the right time, and it's hard to see them getting better than they are later on. Same goes for the chiefs.

Yeah that was last year. You strike me as a very new football fan.

PS: I called the chiefs being awesome before the season started.

I wouldn't call them awesome. I think they are a solid team and it's a great story, but I can't see them going far in the playoffs with such a game managing type of style. Once they start playing teams with good offenses, and once teams get more tape on their offense they are going to start losing. I think they will finish the season above 500 but they will likely be playing for the wildcard since the Broncos are in their division. They have an easy schedule until after he BYE week, with the exception of their game against the Texans, so it looks like 5 losses which should make it close for the wildcard.

As for Alex Smith, it's nothing we haven't seen with him already. He's playing on a team with the 2nd best defense in the NFL according to points against them, so he just has to manage games and not lose them. He's not a Super Bowl winning QB though, but is alright if you are satisfied with just making it to the playoffs. I find his west coast offense boring to watch with all those quick slants.

I would love to go to a game at Arrowhead stadium this season though, it definitely seems to be a top 5 place to watch a NFL football game, and with the winning environment it's got to be top 2 right now (Seattle is insane). It reminds me of last years Redskins and the environment in that stadium with them finally winning.
 
KC has a lot of weapons and a great new coach. I do think they have a chance to make the playoffs, but simply put, Alex Smith is not a playoff QB. Alex Smith has always been good, but never great. I've never seen him win games by himself, and he doesn't make his receivers any better. The fact that people were ready to call Crabtree a bust a couple years back is a perfect example. Alex Smith is a great QB to hold a team together until they find their star. I doubt he'll ever win a Super Bowl as a starter.

Btw, what's going on with RGIII? He's still very good, but only in the second half apparently. He also isn't a threat on the ground anymore. Waiting to fully recover before he unleashes his legs or is this the new RGIII? He's a total professional and a smart guy, so I know whatever decision QB he becomes is the correct choice for him, but what will it be?
 
ACL take at least 12 months to get back that confidence and strength. More so when you rely on your run and agility to compensate for other areas as a QB. He injured that knee at the end of last season so there is a chance he might be right by the end of this one but I would write him off this season and look forward to the rest of his career.
 
kc and sd are looking great

i'm rooting for them
mostly because of how quickly they turned things around....still up for debate....but gives hope to fans of perpetually bad teams
 
^ and speaking of bad teams, the Browns have 2 wins already this year! What's the deal with Cincinnati losing to them, so many people [analysts and reporters] were picking them to go to the Super Bowl this season but they can't seem to get in sync or something.

They were on the Hard Knocks show = instant overhyping

They only barely squeaked into the playoffs because everyone else in the AFC was so weak the last few years (which so far this year seems not to be the case).
 
Good thing we let Bush go so we could pay for Mike Wallace, who's on pace to break Calvin Johnson's yardage record.

Also, good thing our front office passed on Drew Brees and on Jimmy Graham (lol). Thank you Nick Saban and Bill Parcells!

Also, the Dolphins have the ugliest uniforms in the history of uniforms. We look like daiquiris.

Dolphins are gray. What's wrong with this guys color:

Much more respectable than whatever that color is that we put on.
 
Drew Brees and Peyton Manning are playing ridiculous right now. And they both have so many weapons to use in their respective offenses.
 
Chiefs ranked #5 team overall and 2nd best overall D with the #1 scoring-takeaway defense in the game. Undefeated baby! We are going at least 12-4. If anyone wants to make a bet do it here!
