Week 13 Rooting Guide (and now "other games thread")
I had this brilliant idea to use cdcox's software to put together a guide for who we should be rooting for to best help the Chiefs chances of making the playoffs. I always like stuff like that because it helps to tease out some of the nuances that you probably wouldn't have guessed:
The main one that's interesting to me in that is the Chargers game. Who would have thought that it's actually in our best interests for the Chargers to win today? That's mainly because the Chargers have a BRUTAL schedule to end the season, so it's unlikely they're going to be a threat for the WC spot anyway, so it's better for them to win now and take the Ravens down a notch. (I should probably add that games not listed have essentially zero impact on our playoff chances.) I was very proud of the great insight I gleaned from this analysis. That is...until I ran it with the Chiefs/Broncos game in there: So basically, we can root for other teams all we want, but nothing matters NEAR as much as just taking care of our own business.

Bucs driving late only down by 1. They could pull this out..
And as I speak they draw a holding penalty just barely in field goal range. Idiotic mistake on their part. |

McCown just took a shot at the end zone with 40 seconds left. Interesting.
I'd be playing for the field goal at this point. |

Would have been nice for the rams to have best sanndyeggo last week.
Good for the browns getting shit kicked and the steelers. Chiefs have to take care of biz tho or it won't matter |

Well, the Bucs are pretty much ****ed now. They'll be pushed back and with only 12 seconds and no TOs, the middle of the field is pretty much out of the question.
