Should we bet the Chiefs to win the AFC?

[Avocado33]

Seems like this is probably going to be the nadir.

0-2 with Giants coming up

Maybe worth a look again if they lose to Baltimore and fall to 1-3

Their kryptonite is basically gone now, and rest of conference looks vulnerable

They’ll get healthier on offense and their defense looks pretty good again

 

[exploited17]

Only 3 teams have made the SB starting 0-2
But all 3 won it
And all 3 had something a bit odd.

Cowboys were without Emmitt Smith first 2 games.
Pats eneded up with their backup QB taking over and winning.
Giants defeated a undefeated team

DK 14/1 SB. 7/1 AFC

Not enough value there for me. At least a half dozen teams better than the Chiefs imo

Seems like a good opportunity for a 4th team

Not the same team this year. Maybe they can evolve offensively and they always have Mahomes if their defense is still as good as it has been past 2 years. I just don't see 4 straight Super Bowls. Then again who is there in the AFC that is impressive? No one. Not choking Bills and Ravens

Does that mean you are giving them the Giants game this weekend?

Yeah, I am

Obviously nothing is guaranteed, but I feel pretty good about KC winning that one

Giants getting 6. You laying 6?

I’m considering it on my card. Chiefs love to not cover though lol

 

[Avocado33]

Yeah I'm gonna lay the 6 I think

Probably loses lol

I think that the Chargers and Broncos are better teams. I don't even think they'll win their Division never mind the AFC.

We'll see. Lot of season left

Denver looks pretty shitty so far. Chargers have some bad tendencies

 

[REDEYE]

I will take those pts. Giants D line should get to Mahomes

 

[SheriffJoe]

Chiefs look tired and washed up - one of these years I'll be right about them.

At least the Eagles trounced them in the SB exposing them for the pretenders they were.

Smoke and mirrors, last play one possession wins, week in and week out.

Good call.

If the Chiefs win, you already know the script: some fluky one-possession miracle at the buzzer.

They aren't pretenders in the AFC ever

Why? Every 'W' is just another last-second Houdini act, even against the crappiest teams.

One of these days that magic trick's gonna flop. Maybe it already started.

They’ve started slow before . Went 3-4 including a 27-3 loss to Ryan Tannehill and the Titans

Still got the 2 seed and hosted the AFC title game that year (Bengals beat them)

They have a much better defense than Buff/Baltimore, and they have Reid/Mahomes. Offense is going to get healthier

Id prefer they just flame out and miss the playoffs, but if they make it no one is going to want to play them.

Baltimore and Buffalo would shrink

0-3 their last 3 NFL games going back to the SB (a blowout)

Doesn't matter much

Held Philly to barely over 200 yards

Give Mahomes Rice and Worthy -- that's more than enough to win in January
