Who do we want to lose on Thursday Night football (Oakland @ Kansas City)?

[Soul_Survivor88]

We are tied at 10-2 with Oakland, but Oakland currently owns the tiebreaker. So obviously, we want Oakland to lose, right?

Only thing is.... Kansas City is only a game behind us, and has a significantly easier remainung schedule than the Raiders. If victorious, will the Chiefs win the #1 Seed? Do we risk playing the AFC title game at Arrowhead?

Your thoughts?

Neither. Root for a tie.

KC. Gives us breathing room for #1 seed. Playing at Gillette in the playoffs this year is crucial.

 

[Ring 6]

We are ahead of Kc and own the tiebreaker.
We are tied with Oakland and lose the tiebreaker

No brainer.
If chiefs win and win out we are 1 seed with 3 wins.

If raiders win rhey would have to lose 2 of last 3 for us to get 1 seed with 3 wins.

If raiders win we can run the table and not get the 1. If chiefs win we can lose 1 and still get the 1.

I definitely want to see the Raiders lose. Oakland is ahead of us right now and KC is a game behind and trailing us in tie breakers. Plus, in 2001 I put a 25 year curse on the Raiders so they'll barely make it into the playoffs, if they do at all.

This is a good article that argues why Pats fans should root for the Chiefs to prevail tomorrow

Race for No. 1 seed: New England Patriots should root for Kansas City Chiefs to win AFC West over Oakland Raiders

 

[Gwedd]

Root for the Chefs.

 

[Bradyking12]

Would a tie benefit us

 

[Joey007]

That's a tough one, because it'd be much worse to lose the top seed to KC.

I guess I'm just ready to watch a damn good game tommorow night.

 

[YOUGOTMOSSED]

Root for the Chefs.

 

[Wheelman]

HAHA! So that's what @TB_Helmet meant!

This is a no brainer. We want HFA. KC winning helps that for 2 reasons:

1) It puts us ahead of Oakland
2) It increases the chances KC wins the west which is better for us than Oakland winning the west since we have a tiebreaker advantage over KC
