Who will stop the Patriots?

[Why Not?]

Rams absolutely beatable. That's a 50/50 game. Anyone automatically predicting a loss there is suffering from battered Chiefs fan syndrome. Ravens are mediocre at best. Chargers can't beat us. Seahawks are Wilson and 52 dudes. I can't predict an NFL team to go 15-1 but it would be far from shocking if we did.

[BWillie]

They have two more losses in them - they don't do anything elite. Just everything slightly above average.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

They don't beat a short handed KC team without officiating help. Frauds..

[Naptown Chief]

Chiefs in Arrowhead. Hopefully Brady gets indicted for molesting his son after the game, meets a large and lovely man in prison named James, and lives the rest of his days as James' not so pretty boy.

[PHOG]

Us, in Arrowhead

Kirk Cousins will kick dat ass

I think Tennessee has a legit shot as well as Pittsburgh. Too bad they get Minnesota at home.

NE always seems to get their tougher opponents at HOME( KC,Green Bay,Minn), I wonder why that is?????

The paranoia makes me laugh. There are actual rules that decide this you dumbass. No discretion at all.

Here, you want the Chiefs 2022 schedule? Here it is:

https://fbschedules.com/nfl/kansas-city-chiefs/


Home: Denver, Oakland, SD, Colts, Texans, Rams, Seahawks, AFC East team TBD (same finish in division from prior year)

Away: Denver, Oakland, SD, Jags, Titans, Cardinals, 49ers, AFC North team TBD (same finish in division from prior year)

I'm not buying that the schedule for 2022 is set already. No one knows the schedule till the summer prior.

Ok. You believe what you want, but the NFL for many years now (since the advent of 32 teams) has a set rotation schedule, which is very simple to understand:

six games against division opponents (one home, one away)

four games against a rotating division within your conference. For the Chiefs, it's the AFC North this year and the AFC South next year.

Four games against a rotating division in the other conference. For the Chiefs, it's the NFC West this year and the NFC North next year.

The remaining two games are against the two teams in (1) the other divisions in the same conference that you aren't already playing this year (2) that finished with the same seed in their division as you finished in yours in the prior year. For the Chiefs, that means that if you finish first in the AFC West, next year you will play the team that had the first seed in the AFC East and North next year (because you are playing ALL of the AFC South next year.

AND HEY, GOOD NEWS -- if you finish first and the Patriots finish first too, then next year you get to come back to Foxboro AGAIN.

And whine that you're being ****ed and the NFC is rigged!! Because you don't understand that it's a system. Whether you believe in it or not.

Every team that plays at NE gets ****ed over. Refs make sure you win. They did against us, zero penalty yards is ****ing ridiculous. Same last year with the Jags. Frauds. Goodell helping his daddy Kraft sqeeze every dollar out of Brady. Packers got ****ef as well. Flag after flag on them and nothing on Pats. When was the time the OL was called for holding? Does it ever happen?

I think most people understand the system.

The question is....how is it determined that next year's AFC east game will be on the road again? And how are the home/away splits determined in the rotating divisional matchups? Just random right? "Randomly" 3 straight years in Foxboro.

Don't care though to be honest. Give me a more experienced Mahomes (with likely a beefed up and healthier D) over 42 year old Brady any day. Won't matter how many times they swallow the whistle or how many headsets are malfunctioning.
