Chiefs 5 games out: Direckshun's Projeckshuns - Page 2

Direckshun · 11-24-2014, 10:31 AM

How I project the rest of the season working out:

1. Pats, Donks, Colts get slots 1-3, in order.

2. Here's how the top wild card contenders fare:

Dolphins (6-5):

@ Jets W
vs. Baltimore W
@ NE L
vs. Vikings W
vs. Jets W

Dolphins end up 10-6.

Browns (7-4):

@ Bills W
vs. Colts L
vs. Bengals W
@ Panthers W
@ Ravens L

Browns end up 10-6.

Steelers (7-4):

vs. Saints W
@ Cincy L
@ Falcons W
vs. Chiefs W
vs. Bengals W

Steelers end up 11-5.

Ravens (6-4):

@ Saints [tonight] W
vs. Chargers W
@ Dolphins L
vs. Jags W
@ Texans W
vs. Browns W

Ravens end up 11-5.

Bengals (7-3-1):

@ Bucs W
vs. Steelers W
@ Browns L
vs. Broncos L
@ Steelers L

Bengals end up 9-6-1.

Chiefs (7-4):

vs. Broncos L
@ Arizona W
vs. Oakland W
@ Steelers L
vs. Chargers W

Chiefs end up 10-6.

Chargers (7-4):

@ Ravens L
vs. Patriots L
vs. Broncos L
@ 49ers L
@ Chiefs L

Chargers end up 7-9.

3. Steelers get the tiebreaker over the Ravens (projected 3-3 divisional record to Baltimore's projected 2-4) and take the #4 slot. Ravens take #5 and will visit Pittsburgh.

4. As for the remaining three 10-6 teams vying for the #6 slot:

Dolphins 10-6
Browns 10-6
Chiefs 10-6

Oddly enough, the fact that the Chiefs beat the Dolphins (and that the Dolphins beat the Browns) doesn't matter. The only time head-to-head counts when it's a three way tie is if the team in question has beaten (or lost to) each of the other team. But the Chiefs and Browns didn't play, and the Dolphins went 1-1.

The next tie-breaker is AFC conference record:

Dolphins: 8-4
Chiefs: 7-5
Browns: 6-6

The Dolphins get the #6 slot and will visit Indy.

The Chiefs and Browns miss the playoffs.

If Denver beats KC, there is a 62% chance Chiefs miss out on the playoffs and would not control their own destiny. If the reverse happens, there's a 70% chance the Chiefs make the playoffs and would control their own destiny for at least one more week.

Then dudes like Mitch Holthus say, "What a sweet taste of revenge!" ignoring of course that it's one regular season home win compared to the awful rape we went up against in prior years

That would be a GRRM approved ending.

oh... ok. In terms of this year playoff race though, this "regular season home win" would be pretty meaningful. And it's not like the Broncos are awful this year.

So injured? Not as much as the Chiefs are they?; older? Manning - obviously, not sure about the cumulative overall age of rest of team; not as good? By most accounts they improved in the off-season, their record isn't as good but as with the Chiefs, they are playing a much harder record this year. Manning himself is only slightly off of his record setting year last year.

LOL Right.

I sure wish I was as immature as you.

You're incapable of real football discussion, so you just troll.

IF it pans out that way, THAT'S what happens when you lose to the Titans and Raiders...

That being said, I DONT think the Browns finish 10-6 or Baltimore and Pitt finish 11-5. Doesn't matter regarding the Chiefs because I bet we finish 9-7 and miss out regardless of any tie breakers. That Raider loss was HUGE and will end up defining the season.

Chiefshrink · 11-24-2014, 11:40 AM

We will be 8-8 and miss the playoffs I'm afraid. Cardinals will beat us at their place even with Stanton because they "will" shut down our run AND definitely our non-pass game. Chargers need I say more than they beat us last year at home and if they keep winning and we keep losing it only suggest that the Chargers will need the win worse than we will by season's end.

Will their O-Lineman get caught wearing Vasoline? Wait/what?

You apparently didn't watch the Seattle-Arizona game yesterday.

The Browns win 10?

They've beaten two teams with a winning record this year and lost to the likes of Houston and Jacksonville.

It's not surprising that Cleveland, Baltimore, Pittsburgh and Miami win 10 or 11 games because they're not the Chiefs.

I seriously wonder how many people watch NFL games or have the Sunday Ticket because outside of NE and Green Bay, theres a whole lot of meh out there on Sundays.

Anything can happen between now and the end of the season and likely will. The Chiefs are far from out of this thing.

I'm trying to figure out when it became 'cool' to troll and be negative about everything.

Chiefshrink gave psychological evaluations to the Chiefs, and he was able to determine that they just don't believe hard enough. Their scores were significantly lower than that of the Royals after they beat the Athletics in the Wild Card round.

I don't know if I have ever seen ANYONE create more threads than Direckshun about hypotheticals, guesstimations, and what if scenarios.

You must be an engineer or statistician by trade or by desire because they slice and dice numbers to such mental masturbation it's mind numbing.
