Anybody have a take on the 6-0 Chiefs?

It looks pretty legit.  Kind of shows how horrible Pioli and Crennel were.  Some things that stand out...

-Have you guys noticed this rookie Defensive back Cooper?   He almost went undrafted and he was cut from the Niners.   The Chiefs had first waiver claim and picked him up and he's been sensational.   There was a special teams touchdown he had a couple weeks ago where he just outhustled the opposing player to the ball, he's had an interception nearly every week where he just out-competes the opposing player and makes a harder break to the ball and rips it away.  He's very impressive and is one of the biggest surprising players of the year.

-Tamba Hali is having another big year, Justin Houston another big year, and Dontari Poe is becoming a big time player.  The Chiefs had 10 sacks in the game last week!

-Jamal Charles is still the heart and soul of the team.  The guy is sensational in every way.   He's catching more passes in Andy Rieds offense.

- people around town complain about Alex and the offense but bottom line is they get it done when they have to and they are 6-0.

Shallow:
I doubted them for most of their streak, but 6-0 cannot be dismissed. They right now look like the second best team in the AFC. The problem is if they don't beat Denver in the season they could be as high as 14-2 and have to go on the road for the playoffs. They may not be able to beat teams like Cinci, NE, or Indy on the road in January. But they have a chance.

Of course, we still have a long season ahead of us.

I was hoping to hear your take on it.

Your exactly right.  They will probably end up 12-4 and have to play their first playoff game on the road because of Denver.   I do however think that our defense will impress against Peyton.  It will make things interesting but I certainly don't expect the Chiefs to overcome the Broncos.

It's going to be fun either way.  People around town were predicting 6-10 for the season and we already have 6 wins.  The Chiefs get to play against struggling Houston at home, and they have made a dumb decision to start some rookie over a backup who I think I remember winning them a playoff game a couple years ago?

So the Chiefs should easily get to 7-0.   They really only have to play .500 the rest of the season to make the playoffs.  It would be great if they could just find a way to win 1 playoff game as the Chiefs haven't won a playoff game since Joe Montana and Marcus Allen beat the Buddy Ryans Oilers in Houston in 93'.  What a game that was.  One of my top 5 Sports memories as a kid.

Hack Wilson - real:
top 10 teams in the NFL right now:

1-Broncos
2-Patriots
3-Seahawks
4-Saints
5-Chiefs
6-Colts
7-Bengals
8-Packers
9-Bears
10-Ravens


Broncos and Chiefs are both lucky the NFC East is rather weak.  both will probably go 4-0 in NFC games.

Hack Wilson - real:
chiefs are a lock for the playoffs if they finish over .500 at this point


afc east will have no wild card teams for sure


afc north will...bengals or ravens.


afc south is starting to look like the Colts will run away with it while houston and tenn fight from here out.  Chiefs just need to win 9-11 games to win the WC.  they need to win at least 12 with a season sweep of Denver to win the division though.
