Chiefs Time to call your shot - predict the Chiefs' 2015 record for the season - Page 4

**DaFace** · 08-29-2015, 05:13 PM

We've seen about as much as we're gonna see of the team before the games count. I always think it's fun to lock in your predictions before the season. Assuming we can find this thread again in a few months, it will inevitably be bumped to either laugh at or cry about.

Here's the schedule:

Sun, Sep 13 @ Texans 11:00 AM
Thu, Sep 17 vs Broncos 6:25 PM
Mon, Sep 28 @ Packers 6:30 PM
Sun, Oct 4 @ Bengals 11:00 AM
Sun, Oct 11 vs Bears 11:00 AM
Sun, Oct 18 @ Vikings 11:00 AM
Sun, Oct 25 vs Steelers 11:00 AM
Sun, Nov 1 vs Lions 7:30 AM
(bye)
Sun, Nov 15 @ Broncos 2:25 PM
Sun, Nov 22 @ Chargers 6:30 PM
Sun, Nov 29 vs Bills 11:00 AM
Sun, Dec 6 @ Raiders 2:05 PM
Sun, Dec 13 vs Chargers 11:00 AM
Sun, Dec 20 @ Ravens 11:00 AM
Sun, Dec 27 vs Browns 11:00 AM
Sun, Jan 3 vs Raiders 11:00 AM

(Yeah, I'm in a thread-starting mood. Bite me.)

And the rally cry will go forth:

"We won 4 of our last 5, this team is primed for 2016!"

I'm gonna go with the homer in me, and say 9-7.

I am torn as to whether to put money down on it. Vega$ has it as 8.5 right now...so if you are REALLY confident in 9+ wins, put your money where your mouth is.

I'm not sure yet. If we come out and destroy HOU and then come home and beat DEN I will be sad I didn't take the bet...

Personally I think it will be a season of ups and downs....I think we might start 1-3 but finish strong and so end up 9-7

**The Franchise** · 08-29-2015, 07:54 PM

10-6 is the floor.

Endured more than Chiefs fans?
How many back to back to back to back Super Bowls do they have to go to before you're allowed to tell Buffalo they can come down off their cross now?

Just curious, because not winning one is still better than not going to one in over 40 years, and no playoff win in almost 25.

I said 10-6 months ago and see no reason to change that now.

3-5 to start the year, 5-3 to end it. No playoff appearance.

I had a buddy in vegas last week had him put some on the over for me. Hope it works out

It's 8-8 ...its not like he's saying they're gonna implode

8-8 is worse than last year. That's not happening. Neither is your so called "homer" 9-7.

This is a really good football team.

13-3.

Me likey this team!

Hog's Gone Fishin · 08-29-2015, 08:56 PM

I voted 12-4

To be honest, there's not a team we can't beat. We beat Seattle and New England last year. We're a much better team now. We gotta stay healthy though. We now have depth everywhere a an improved OL. Yes it's better, I said it.

Just going by cold hard math, based on 8.5 o/u....(published by independent people who have their money on the line and not fans)

8 wins is statistically much more likely than 10.

8 or 9 wins is the most likely outcome, mathematically.

I'm a homer. That's why I am going with 9 and the 'over'.

The fact you don't recognize those simple facts puts you at megahomer....

I'm not saying 10-6 or 11-5 is impossible, but 8-8 is mathematically much more likely than either of those results...so your 'smack talk' is based on hot air.

These guys who set the odds have their livelihood at stake. You merely have love at stake.
