Still early in the game, seems to be moving slow tonight.

 

I had picked the Chiefs in the offseason to even maybe win the AFC but I find myself wanting the Raiders now more.

 

There is something about the Chiefs I don't completely trust vs. NE either.

 

Oakland I trust more vs. NE, not sure why but I think they are due to get revenge from 2001 as well in some odd way.

14-3  Raiders getting whipped,

 

But they were down 24-9 last Sunday, right?

 

Yeah seems like both these teams have been behind a lot this year so it's tough for me to think it's over until it's over.

The Raiders seem to have quietly crept up to 2nd on people's list of teams who everybody wants to call frauds, behind the Cowboys (the Pats have somehow avoided this this year???). They're safe if they lose as many as 2 games before playoff time imo. They don't have an easy game left.

Actually yeah, I think we can beat Oakland.......their D looks so bad.

 

Not sure the Raiders can come back right now in this game. The KC defense is GOOD.

 

I like both these teams so I don't mind who wins. But, I still am not completely trusting the Chiefs for the long haul in the playoffs but I wish I did.

I think Oakland is overhyped. With that being said they did come back on a fairly stout Buffalo defense last week so stay tuned.

if the Chiefs win..

 

 

AFC WEST

1. Kansas City (10-3) with Tenn, Denver and SD to play

2. Oakland (10-3) with Colts, Denver and SD to play

3. Denver (8-4) with Tenn, New England, Oakland and KC left to play

 

....with this win,. KC would be 4-0 in the division...so they win all tie breakers

8:25 ST......Al Michaels (back off vacation I guess) Cris Collinsworth and Heather Cox on NBC and the NFL Network

 

I appreciate you saying something on Al Micheal's absence over Thanksgiving OUM. 

 

Honestly, I wondered if Al fell off the wagon or had the flu near the end of November. I was confused as to why Mike Tirico was in the booth next to Cris Collinsworth on turkey night & I never watch pre game stuff ever. 

 

I like Al. I wasn't mocking the guy. I just didn't know he took off time to hang with the fam that's all. Mike did a good job holding down the fort until Al's return though. He has a nice speaking voice as a proxy stand in booth man. 

 

I'm DVring the game as we speak. Therefore, I can't really offer any relevant feedback as of yet.

    • As it stands the Eagles are pretty loaded with CBs at the moment after picking up Rodgers then drafting both Quinyon and Cooper in the draft. There have been rumblings of them potentially preparing to move Bradberry. They are currently in need of another WR, so the question I pose is would you be ok with trading Alec to Philly in exchange for Bradberry? Or do you think they should let the current CBs on the roster battle it out? Keep in mind Bradberry is approaching 31 years of age.
    • Exactly. I wanted the Vikes to trade Jefferson. I think being careful not to overpay is important in football. I guess that is why I like Ballard. He does not jump and pay the shiniest free agent all this money. He believes in rewarding his own players.   The only reason I would pay Jefferson is because he has been in our organization and we know him. I prefer paying players who have been with the team and have been good players and good citizens (stays out of trouble, are team players, etc.)
    • It is but as the guys reporting this said Pierce was the only one of the top four WRs working with special teams and not something he’s done in the past.  Like I said it’s early indication,  it can clearly change.
    • Yeah it was a wild game. Cubs are in a funk that is for sure lol.
    • Tatum is a great player but Doncic is better. Both teams basically will have a week off and should come in healthy so there really can't be any excuses for the losing team. Unless a key player gets injured during the series. I still like Dallas in 6. If I am wrong I will be here and tip my cap to you, and say I was wrong.   Regarding football, if you look my top 5 QBs of all-time, I have Brady #1 and I am a diehard Colts fan. I have Brady 1, Montana 2, Peyton 3, Mahomes 4, Unitas 5. The League MVP is the 2nd best thing a QB can win, only winning the Championship is better. So I put a lot of weight on League MVPs. Peyton is top 5 at worse just because of that alone combined with winning 2 Championships. At the end of the year, if a QB doesn't win the Championship, but wins League MVP, most say, he still at least won MVP and was the best player the whole regular season.
