Chiefs take over 1st in the AFC West. Raiders drop from 1st to 5th in the AFC.

Love this... "This is why Al Gore invented the internet."
Too bad Tyreek Hill also beat up his girlfriend. Mixed love for him, but he's electric to watch.

Chiefs fans having to be getting excited. Is the excitement tempered or enhanced by the feeling of impending playoff doom?

I'd say it's been pretty electric here. The fact that they won a playoff game last year--finally-- probably helps with that.lukethedrifter wrote:Chiefs fans having to be getting excited. Is the excitement tempered or enhanced by the feeling of impending playoff doom?

Chief are pretty good, but they're living on the edge. Beat the Broncos by plunking one off of an upright after the Broncos tried a 63 yard field goal. Beat the Raiders (in part) when a Raiders pass possibly hit a camera wire http://den.247sports.com/Bolt/Carrs-fai ... e-49672780
Takes some luck to win it all. Maybe this is the Chiefs' year! Winning in New England in the playoffs is no cakewalk, though.

I wouldn't blame anyone who thinks this is the year, but by that same token, as long as they don't lose the first game, it wouldn't be a bust IMO.
AFC Wild Card games right now are Ravens-Broncos and Texans-Raiders. Neither seems like it'd be close.

Re: 2016 NFL Thread
Most Chiefs fans I know are always going to have their enthusiasm somewhat tempered by the limitations of Alex smith and Andy Reid. The emergence of Kelce and Hill as legit playmakers to go with that defense changes it a little, but not to full on kool aid mode. I'd say they would be confident about any home game against a non Pats team and slightly pessimistic about a road game against anybody.

Re: 2016 NFL Thread
I'm finding more enjoyment in rooting against the Rams than I ever had rooting for them (minus the couple years they won and made it to the Super Bowl)
