Can KC go 19-0?

[Pape]

I'm talking about the big picture. If KC goes 20-0 that'll give them 3 SB wins in a row and 4 out of 6, with one of them being the all-time greatest season. They'd be catching up to the Pats very quickly.

20-0, threepeat? If that happens, they surpass the Patriots. Mahomes replaces Brady as GOAT.

You’re kind of proving my point. Top 10 spending teams have a shot at winning the championship in baseball. In the nfl people are already penciling in the chiefs as sb champs, in a cap era.

I don't think you know what "parity" means as the term is commonly used.

It’s a combination of things, to include inept coaching, poor fundamentals, very good but not great qb competition. You got owners who think they know football. The rules cater mostly to quarterbacks.

Yes that's the point I am making. NFL teams who suck year in and year out are poorly run teams with inept coaching, poor fundamentals, etc, etc. None of them are losing simply because they are being outspent.

Joe Gibbs won with several different quarterbacks.

So wait a second, is a dynasty a good thing or is it a bad thing? Make up your mind. Joe Gibbs won 3 Super Bowls and you praise the system. Kansas City wins 3 Super Bowls and the system sucks.

Buccaneers won with Trent dilfer. Bears won with a great defense. There was a more balanced offense to defense game that allowed for different styles of teams to compete for a championship. Now everything is geared towards passing and one of the great offensive coaches of all time is going to the sb every year. NFL is more of a have and have nots at the qb position.

That's got nothing to do with whether or not there is parity. QB is the most important position in all of sports so obviously the teams with great QBs are going to have the inside track to winning.

BTW, Nick Foles won a Super Bowl recently. So don't say it can't be done by mediocre QBs.

 

[PatriotSpy]

Eliminate the Chiefs and let me know what else is a compelling storyline in the NFL.

Allen vs Lamar. Can John harbaugh make the chargers a champion? Lions, once a laughing stock could be sb champs. Can old Russ lead the Steelers deep into the playoffs?

People aren’t going to stop watching because the chiefs aren’t winning. I mean c’mon.

 

[Disco Volante]

What team are you people watching?

Literally 5 of their 7 wins have been by a touchdown or less.

They look a **** ton more like the 2019 Patriots than the 2007 Patriots.

That's the problem. QB's have been made into the most important position in all of sports. You could win with a bears great defense or a Bucs great defense. It was harder to pass the ball and score points. The Redskins don't fit the true dynasty mold in that Gibbs won with different quarterbacks.

Yes, every league has well run teams and badly run teams. Still, my point still stands, MLB still has an open playing field to the championship compared to football. NHL, same thing. We know Jackson isn't going to arrowhead and beating the chiefs. We know Allen isn't. Herbert isn't. The Chiefs ARE going to 3 peat.

The chiefs are the rams of the 90s and early 2000s. The only reason the rams didn't win multiple championships is because we beat their receivers at the line of scrimmage in the sb. The game was more physical. Defenses could compete.

You give Reid all the benefits of an easy passing league and he owns the league. He has no equal. There is no true parity.

I didn't say they'd stop watching, but less people eventually will.

Allen vs Lamar isn't compelling at all. Nobody cares about Harbaugh or Russell Wilson.

I'll give you the Lions though.

 

[Ring 6]

They will beat our consecutive wins as well.
Well I just checked and the Colts already did it. List of NFL longest winning streaks - Wikipedia.
So no need to worry about that.

We count post seasons around here

 

[Nehalem]

Be funny if they went 20-0 but Mahomes had less TD passes than Maye.

Note currently Mahomes has 8TDs and 9ints

 

[Le Numéro Douze]

Mahomes is the GOAT.

He is shredding NFL records left and right. I have no doubt that he will have 7 rings.

So the guy who is making 2015 Peyton Manning looking like 2010 Tom Brady will be the GOAT if he is carried by his great defense to a 4th SB?

I mean, Mahomes is great and he will play better, but there is more to being the best than just winning. Brady is the GOAT because he was the straw that stirred the drink for at least 4 Super Bowls. Mahomes has been for 2 for sure, but this year, the team is carrying him big time.

Well yeah, the swifties, but they aren’t football fans.

The gamblers, fantasy football players, real football fans and casuals will not gradually decline.

Mahomes has 8 touchdowns and 9 interceptions as a game manager this year, he’s not babe Ruth, michael Jordan or Tom Brady. Hell he’s not even exciting anymore. Casuals would much rather watch Allen than game manager Mahomes.

You're crazy if you think the bottom 10 in revenue can even remotely compete with the top 10 in revenue in baseball. There are always going to outliers and exceptions, but it is just ridiculous to call baseball "an open playing field to the championship". 10 teams are eliminated before opening day.

NHL, same thing.

Don't follow, don't care.

We know Jackson isn't going to arrowhead and beating the chiefs.

No you don't know that. You're predicting that. Huge difference.

We know Allen isn't.

No you don't know that. You're predicting that. Huge difference.

Herbert isn't.

No you don't know that. You're predicting that. Huge difference.

No you don't know that. You're predicting that. Huge difference.

You mean the Rams who won all of 1 Super Bowl?

You give Reid all the benefits of an easy passing league and he owns the league. He has no equal. There is no true parity.

Like I said, you don't know what the word "parity" means.

 

[ausbacker]

No, mainly because I think Detroit is winning it all this season.

 

[NE_Zealot]

20-0, threepeat? If that happens, they surpass the Patriots. Mahomes replaces Brady as GOAT.

I can’t buy that on 4 rings alone. Especially with his ass being carried by the defense. At the time of this writing he still has more INTs than TDs

 

[Uptown]

No.

 

[Pape]

I can’t buy that on 4 rings alone. Especially with his ass being carried by the defense. At the time of this writing he still has more INTs than TDs

that will be the narrative. id put money on it. cant top the number of rings? do what no one else has done.

Like I said, you don't know what the word "parity" means.

No, I’m talking about the 10 teams with the highest payroll. Within that 10 team pool it’s an open field.

And yes, I know what parity means. NFL, compared to the NHL and MLB, (a league that has no cap) has less competition for the championship year after year.

Rules, coaching, management, emphasis on one position and a dearth in quarterbacks who can effectively game manage when the games into the nitty gritty (playoffs) are the reasons why.

And yes those rams that won one Super Bowl, different era. If they exist today they are eating everybody’s lunch.

 

[PatRiot]

Never ever

 

[Vindicate]

It's always some random ass team that no one expected to win that ends up beating the undefeated teams. I think it's highly, highly unlikely they sweep the entire season.

 

[stinkypete]

It's highly, highly unlikely. This Chiefs team is closer to the 2018 Patriots than the 2007 team. They're not great. Their offense has been eroding for years.

They could still win the Super Bowl, but this team nailing a perfect season would be an incredible upset.

 

[XLIX]

Sure would be nice if someone told the Red Sox that….

And yes, I know what parity means. NFL, compared to the NHL and MLB, (a league that has no cap) has less competition for the championship year after year.

It’s not about competition for the championship, it’s about a level playing field. The NFL has it, MLB does not.

Rules, coaching, management, emphasis on one position and a dearth in quarterbacks who can effectively game manage when the games into the nitty gritty (playoffs) are the reasons why.

Congratulations. You just discovered that the teams with the best players at the most important positions are more likely to win.

That doesn’t disprove anything about the NFL’s parity though.

And yes those rams that won one Super Bowl, different era. If they exist today they are eating everybody’s lunch.

Speculation.
