Tommorrow we have a big game against Atlanta. Winning this game would definitely help punch our ticket to the show, and set us up nicely for a showdown with the Raiders. However, thats my concern... We are going to be playing a brutal game I am assuming with the Falcons, and then 3 days later be playing vs the Raiders. Sure we are at home, but we have been on the road ALOT, and are coming off a big, exhausting 5 quarter win vs the broncos last week. We have traveled, traveled and traveled some more these past few weeks.

Raiders are coming off 3 home games, and will have time after Sunday's game at home to rest up and then make the final trip out to us, while we will still be gearing up to leave Atlanta and settling back into our home.... Sure our game is in KC, but it almost feels like the NFL really fucked us on this mini 4-5 day stretch of 2 games.

The disadvantages for playing on a short week are greater for the road team.

As for the rest, I'm guessing we lose to Atlanta and beat the Raiders, but if we lose both, we're still in a pretty good spot to at least make the playoffs.

My bad I thought I made it clear in my original post. What im talking about is how Oakland has had 3 straight home games, and we are on our 2nd straight road game in a week, 3 out of our last 4 games have been on the road... Yes, Oakland and us have the same time to rest up between our games, but Oakland will finish there game at home, rest at home, then make the flight out, where we will be ending our game, flying home, settling in, and prepping up. Im just saying id rather have oaklands scenario.

Beat Oakland and Denver, go at least 5-1 in the division (with a good chance at 6-0) and the rest will take care of itself.

Losing to Atlanta isn't a huge deal at all, but it would be nice to have this win just in case we do drop one to Oakland or Denver at Arrowhead.

I think we're likely looking at an L this week.

Do you think Reid and Smith are going to play to win this game? Or do you think Reid is going to conserve players and whatever else for the Raider game on thursday, and that Sunday's game vs falcons will be a, play a regular game and hope for a win type deal?

stevieray · 12-03-2016, 05:45 PM

nah. feel pretty good, actually.

Barring playing his backups like he did against San Diego in 2013, I think it's pretty clear that Reid "plays to win" (whatever that may mean) every game.

Just because a team has a down game doesn't mean they just didn't give a shit about winning that week.
