NFL Week 6 Games

Some teams just match up very well against you. The Chiefs for a while have not been able to play the Steelers. Similarly, we have struggled against the Chiefs.

If they can't beat them at home then they're a bunch of frauds.

The squealers are just destroying that chiefs d line. Maybe the chiefs read their paper clippings a little too much.

Bell having his way with the Chiefs D. TD coming. This could be a blow out.

 

[ScottishPatriots]

Steelers should be winning this by a lot more borderline win for the Chiefs to only be down 9.

 

[luuked]

If the Chiefs can keep that insane defense in the redzone going like this for the whole season they will be very hard to take down. This is what keeps them in games.

It's amazing how terrible KC looks everytime they see the squealers. They don't look like a 5-0 team.

Pittsburgh matches up well vs KC.

Patriots match up well vs Pittsburgh.

Back in the late seventies heavyweight boxing was still equally popular to professional team sports. Ali, Frazier, Norton, Holmes, Shavers, Young, etc were all contenders and/or heavyweight champions at some point in time. Each had the number of one or more of their rivals. Likewise, each had a nemesis that they had extreme trouble with.


Just one of those things that makes sports interesting. You can't just assume that since A defeated B and B beat C, then A will handle C with ease.

True but i thought they would play a lot better than this. Their offense's anemic.

Mark Schlereth was mediocre as a pre and post game analyst on espn.

He's even worse now as a live commentator on NFL games.

There are plenty of more capable people to put in the booth than Schlereth (and Fouts).

Steelers putting a beat down on the Chiefs.

Putrid game by the chiefs. Looks like that 0 will soon be 1

I thought they would as well. Pittsburgh was embarrassed last week. The Steelers may have some extra adrenaline running through their bodies after that loss. Plenty of time left to play. Or maybe KC is simply overdue for a loss.

This game is textbook example of why matchups matter in the league more than supposed momentum or whatever narrative the media can come up with. Not saying that KC cant turn it around but the Steelers are built well to stop KC.

 

[jmt57]

Wow. I thought Tampa Bay would be pretty good this year. This game is a disaster for the Bucs.

They'll fall to 2-3 with no easy game on the immediate horizon.

Week 7, 10/22: at Bills
Week 8, 10/29: vs Panthers
Week 9, 11/5: at Saints

Tampa gets the Jets and Fins after that, but they could be 2-6 by that point and packing it in.

Nobody is good in this league this year, the standard is way lower than usual for the top teams.

Those splashy moves haven't paid off thus far.

If the Chiefs lose today there is a realistic chance they are 5-2 on Thursday.

A short week, traveling to a division rival ? Not a gimme especially after a big emotional letdown at home.

Jameis Winston is injured. The Bucs are about to enter the Fitzpatrick Zone:

 

[ScottishPatriots]

This looks like one of those years where the league is full of "meh" and someone gets hot in the last few weeks and wins it.

 

[Delicate Genius]

The Chiefs have peaked.

 

[luuked]

If Koetter lets Winston back into the game injured he needs to be fired immediately. Lets not RG3 Winston please..
