As will the Seahawks be for the Chiefs...
Seriously, I don't see the Ravens doing anything to the Chargers. It's their 2nd road game in a row, plus they are so one dimensional. The Chargers will take the run away from them, because they have a good defense, and they'll make Jackson try and beat them with the pass. He can't.

Last Thursday's loss was a colossal Chiefs **** up, especially when you consider that the Patriots lost. KC needs to win out, because the Chargers are going to.

Ravens where at home yesterday

I just don't see how any team can simply take away the run from a team that is averaging like 200 ypg.

One could argue that the only clutch game the Chargers have really won in the past few years is the Thursday one against our favorite team and they still needed the best of Bob Sutton + Reid to get it done. The Ravens under Harbaugh have much more big game pedigree.
My insecurities come from Chiefs PTSD and not from how good other teams are (I don't believe that the AFC has a clear elite). Since the path to HFA for KC is so obvious they will probably f*** it up.

Despite the Chargers' performances of the past, it's pretty clear to me that they're a better team this year than they've been for quite some time.

The Chargers are in too many close games, not just one score but literally one play games. They could be deemed better but they don't pass the eye test (just like the Chiefs D to be fair).

The only positive to take away from losing to LAC was that Mahomes will be playing two more games and gaining experience instead of possibly sitting game 16. He hasn't even played a full 16 games yet so the more experience the better.

We need an early lead against the Seahawks. Their o line is garbage and they allow a lot of pressure on the QB. We absolutely must limit their ability to lean on the running game...

Chargers losing to the Donkeys is a higher probability than the Ravens imo.

Chargers pretty well built to keep the Ravens at 20 or less, so then unless Rivers does a 2016 rendition, they'll score more than 20.

They are going to lose out.

I can see a combined 1-3 between the Chargers and Chiefs the last two weeks.

Anyone saying "lock" is foolish.

Biggest game outside of LAC and KC that we should be monitoring is Houston@Philly.

If Philly wins it forces Seattle to play a tougher game against us.
If Houston wins NE is virtually locked in at #3. Even if we fall to #5 our AFCDG will be either @LAC or @Hou. The entire AFC playoff field should feel good about LAC and Hou being the top seeds. Our toughest game will be @Pit or @Bal in the first round.

I have said multiple times that I feel more confident about this team on the road than at home. #5 is not a bad spot.

The Chargers are also a beat up team. I can see that Ravens defense beating them up even further.
[Reply]

Chargers "Only" put up 29 on our shit defense.

That's going to be a low scoring game.
[Reply]

true - and we would be resting players the final week regardless.
[Reply]

So if I'm reading the board correctly, we are 95% positive we are losing to Seattle this weekend. Is that correct?
