Thursday Night Football....Raiders @ Chiefs

[PatriotsPimp136]

We also still need another loss from Oakland. If they win out, they probably end up winning that divison after all unless KC wins out as well.

So you think KC will lose another game? I feel they can beat denver again. We will see. They end the season in san diego but will san diego even play that game to win?

Hell New England could.. I reference "possibly" drop 3 out of their last 4 games. Now if they do that most likely we aren't doing **** in the play offs anyway. Lots of football to be played. And I hope we don't get to banged up playing 2 tough defenses back to back.. and then to end in Miami. This is a very tough finish for the Pats.

It's good we are playing tough teams down the stretch. This year has been a relative cakewalk with few top tier opponents. Playing a tough schedule means that even if we go 2-2 to close the year, we'll have faced playoff level competition. That should provide all phases of the game some valuable experience as we try to string together some wins and momentum heading into the postseason. The trick, however, is to make sure that we go 2-2 - we cannot afford to go 1-3 and have the Dolphins sneak in and leave us in the cold (or slip to the #3 seed).

Can I be that lazy, annoying guy??? But really, can someone give me a summary of the Pats situation right now? What do we need to happen at this point, regarding seeding and HFA.... ?

Win out.

 

[Deus Irae]

What we learned, KC's offense sucks, Derek Carr had his worst performance of the season when the division and HFA was on the line. Both teams are no where near as good as New England on offense with or without Gronk.

If that's what you think you learned, you didn't learn anything.

 

[AtomicDawg]

Wheres that guy with the flexing Gronk avatar? Bet he has something negative to say.

I usually don't partake in the Game Threads during the game; I usually visit before and after.....is this what it's like? lol

The Chiefs offense was pathetic tonight

We need to win the same number of games the rest of the season as the 2nd seed. They win 2 more, we need to win 2 more. They win 3, we need 3. That's it.

del rio complaining on the rekick which resulted in a TD

 

[Silver Blue&Red]

Win out.

I came this close to typing "aside from them winning out?". But I appreciate the input. EDIT: And I see you are on the money, either way. Win Out!!

 

[wolverinejoe80]

i just hope we beat donkies. so tired of losing at mile high.

 

[bormio]

If Denver loses at KC week 16, they almost certainly will need to beat the Raiders at home week 17 to have a chance to get in. Would be a super intense game.

I can't remember his name, but no matter what positive thing goes our way he finds a negative for us.

eh, they had their moments. That pass to Kelce was nice. That busted play when Smith rolled out and completed to the wide receiver was pretty nice too. Whateves, they won.

I just thank the gods I dont have to watch that offense and Andy "vending machine" Reid every week.

 

[Danger Zone]

The whole season is a blood bath. The best teams are the resilient ones with the deepest roster

50% of the hidden genius of Belichicks gm strategy right there...

San Diego always seems to give them troubles. And they also play Tennessee, who seem to be up and down, you never know what you'll get from them.

The other 50% is 2 broken TEs and traded the only healthy one. Lol.

 

[patfanken]

Oakland was a LOT less than impressive, given they had a 3-0 take away advantage and KC's best ILB was done early in the game. Remember THIS was the same Oakland offense that was being lauded as the league's best and could only score 13 points while maintaining a 3-0 TO rate. Nothing to take away from KC who also has a fine team and will be a real threat if or when we play them. But they couldn't score a point the entire 2nd half ......at home.

The point of all this is EVERY team has their strengths as well as weaknesses. Every team has undergone serious injuries to important players. EVERY team will have a good chance against every other one, and the team that is the most prepared, the most discipled, the most focused, with the best game plans will win. And if those are the criteria to win, then I'll take our chances to win it all our chances even without Gronk.

?????


The Chiefs jumped out to a big lead, and then played "kill the clock".

 

[Froob]

Chiefs should win this division. They hsve home games against tennessee and the donkeys coming up and on the road against the chargers.

Never say never when it comes to the Donkeys. Anything can happen with the Chargers and Titans are decent. Tough finish.

The other 50% is actually being an expert and not smack in the middle of the Dunning-Kruger thinks-theyre-an-expert plot.
