I know, I know. This is pretty irrelevant to what really matters for this season. However, it's fun to see where other fans opinions vary at this point in the year. Not to mention, many people including myself had us at 10-6 last year at this time, very close to reality. So here goes:

Week 1 - @ Houston - I just don't buy into the Texans' QB situation, certainly not in the first game. Plus, Maclin absolutely destroyed their defense last year to a severe degree. Chiefs Win, 27-16.

Week 2 - vs. Denver (TNF) - Finally the Chiefs do it. With prime time in Arrowhead and little film for Manning to work with heading into the short week, the Chiefs defeat the forehead for the first time since joining Denver. Chiefs win, 23-20.

Week 3 - @ Green Bay (MNF) - I wouldn't bet on anyone winning at Lambeau, especially on MNF where Aaron Rodgers shines brightest. The Chiefs to however present the type of playing style that beats a team like the Packers. It's not enough. Packers win, 27-21.

Week 4 - @ Cincinatti - I think this game comes down to which QB steps up and makes the big throw(s). Great defenses, great running games... But in this particular case, I go with the home team. Cinci wins, 19-17.

Week 5 - vs. Chicago - The Bears aren't completely talent deprived, but it feels like a really bad matchup for them. Not enough defense to support their offense against one of the NFL's top defenses on the road. Chiefs win, 34-14.

Week 6 - @ Minnesota - The Vikings are an underrated squad. However, this will be a battle of coaching, and one that the Chiefs should win. Maclin has a big day along with Charles. Chiefs win, 30-17.

Week 7 - vs. Pittsburgh - REVENGE GAME! Last year, the Steelers basically ended the Chiefs playoff hopes at Heinz Field. This year, with a Steelers team that hasn't added a whole lot to their roster and coming into Arrowhead, the Chiefs get payback. Chiefs win, 20-17.

Week 8 - vs. Detroit (at London) - This is gonna be weird. I have the Chiefs at 5-2 heading into this one, and while I don't think Detroit is the better team, they do have experience playing in London from last year. If Calvin and Tate are both playing, it could be tough. Lions win, 21-20.

Week 9 - BYE

Week 10 - @ Denver - We all know how good Andy Reid is after the bye week, and how good the Chiefs have been coming off of tough losses in the last two years... which is why I do indeed have the Chiefs SWEEPING the Denver Broncos. Until proven otherwise, I'm not sold that Manning is the same elite guy he was just two seasons ago. A huge win here. Chiefs win, 28-20.

Week 11 - @ San Diego (SNF) - A big letdown here after a huge win in Denver. On Sunday night, Rivers squeaks by and beats the Chiefs after being swept in 2014. Chargers win, 17-14.

Week 12 - vs. Buffalo - After years of getting pounded by the Bills, it would appear KC has gotten things under control. This time, in front of the Arrowhead crowd, the Chiefs win a defensive battle. Chiefs win, 20-12.

Week 13 - @ Oakland - The Raiders are on the rise, but still not quite ready to take the throne. They're competitive, but still not quite a true contender. Chiefs win, 28-16.

Week 14 - vs. San Diego - Justin Houston has another big December day in Arrowhead against Rivers, avenging the lost three weeks before. Chiefs win, 27-13.

Week 15 - @ Baltimore - This feels like it'll be a heartbreaker. Two very competitive teams, and it should go down to the end. Ravens win, 20-19.

Week 16 - vs. Cleveland - D-Bowe returns!!!!..... and gets shut down. Maybe 40 yards? Who cares, cause the Chiefs will win this one and I don't think it will be too close. Chiefs win, 33-7.

Week 17 - vs. Oakland - With KC, Denver, and SD all battling for the division, this could be for it all.... and the Chiefs can't let the opportunity slide. For the third straight year, Oakland falls on the road in front of a wild roaring crowd. Big day for Kelce and J-Mac. Chiefs win, 31-17.

Final prediction: 11-5, AFC West Champions and a #3 seed in the playoffs.

So now.... what do the rest of you foresee??
