if you look at strength of schedule the Ravens should win out

Agree. The thing is Lamar Chokeson has yet to prove he is a clutch QB when it matters most. 

[Calichief 3,016]

Ravens look to have a easy path.

The game that will ultimately decide it next week - Chiefs vs. Bengals 

can the chiefs get past their mental block with cincy?

I have been waiting for this one all year 

if they lose it will he insufferable with the bullshit chatter 

burrow will be the darling again and pat will be regressing 

I hope next week is a slaughter

All of these teams can loose on any given Sunday any game. Chiefs have Cinn, Sea and two games VS Den. Yes Den. Den has a good enough D to steal one of these games. Will they? Hope not. Chiefs vs Bengals is not the determining factor. Important win? Yes. Wraps it up? No.

Need the bills to lose one or two more. I think the chiefs lose 1 if not two more.

cincy is more of a confidence thing 

where do you go if you are 0-3 against them?

Past is the past. Next week is one game. Its not the playoffs. Chiefs offense and Reid simply choked last year in the second half. It happens. KC is clearly a better team. That does not guarantee wins./

#1 seed is ours to lose and if we lose it due to the Bengals game it's a huge problem for the coaching staff. I believe they are looking forward to that game with extra care and motivation as it can easily turn into a major mental issue. Other than us the Ravens have an easy path but they have just as much chance to win out as we do so that would likely take them to #2.

Cincy is not a mental block....it is a coaching block. There is no question in my mind that cincy will employ the same gameplan as last year...

On offense: Pound the rock, and throw 50/50 balls at man to man defense. 

On Defense: Stack box on first downs. Drop 8 on 2nd and 3rd downs.

All Reid has to do is watch the damn tape.

Update: Tenn and the KIng have had no success running the ball against Cinn in the first half.

Miami is undefeated when Tua has played. They have a shot at the #1  seed despite an iffy defense.

I am sorry but they have played the Ravens who gave that game away and are much better now. Bills was a good game and win for them. Other than that it has been Chicago, Texans, detroit, Browns, Steelers and pats early in season. Not that huge of opponents there in 6 of their 8 wins started by Tua.

Miami scares the shit out of me!!

They are good and getting better. IMO, they are the chiefs biggest THREAT.

Still they have a shot. May be one and done but could have the best regular season record. There schedule has two games against Bills and Niners. The rest are nothing special.

I would welcome a game againat them. Our biggest threat is ourselves.

Ravens have the best schedule but not the best team.  Chiefs have the second best schedule  The AFCEAST can knock each other off and the Chiefs are essentially two up on the Titans.  Gotta hope the Ravens stumble or the Chiefs win out. (not probable)

They haven't played as tough of a schedule as most others and have the toughest remaining schedule. I'm expecting them to end up worse than all 4 teams in the running.

And the Ravens lost. Huge help for us in gaining another game for the 1st seed.

That aged well.  Kudoes to the Jags for going for two.

According to reports, the free agent wide receiver was escorted off a plane in Florida on Sunday morning. Beckham Jr. was then seen walking through the airport with police officers.

Miami-Dade Police have since released a statement on what happened at the airport.

Beckham Jr. was allegedly falling in and out of consciousness on Sunday morning. Personnel were called to the airplane for the apparent medical situation. When Odell Beckham was told he needed to exit the airplane due to a possible health risk of not being able to make it through the flight, he allegedly refused.

Sounds like their left tackle could be out a while.

Watson will be back for ravens/browns.  That game is harder than it looks based on Clevelands current record. 

[Thegoatee 1,780]

If the Chiefs beat Cinci, no reason they shouldn’t run the table. Chief’s schedule has been brutal, unlike some of these teams who have faced cupcakes week in and out.
