58shineson 318 Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 If you think they will do you think they can win a game in the playoffs? In what area would they improve from today that isn’t good enough right now? I’m just curious what you think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qnet 1,150 Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 As of now, I'm not sure they win a playoff game. The receivers are the one thing that will have to improve, and I'm not sure they will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thegoatee 1,780 Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 If they lose to the woeful Patriots, no. This is the kind of year they backslide into the playoffs as a 10 win team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmes4six! 968 Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 I think they can, but not unless something changes to send a message. Like a player replacing a player on the starting lineup or something to that affect that sends a message through your the locker room. they just need to play a clean game. If we do, whether it’s on the road or at home, we are hard to beat. Shit, we only have a one game lead in the division so missing playoffs is a reality.

Calichief 3,016 Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 Doesn’t matter if you can’t win it all/ that is where we are. Win it all or nothing. This team doesn’t have the pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEMO 6,811 Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 They will make the playoffs. And, they could win another championship. If all of the tumblers line up. Which is like cracking a 4 tumbler Sargent & Greenleaf lock, which I have attempted lately. West 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just insane how much smaller the margin for error is when your offense can't cover up mistakes. This is the first time in Mahomes career where I don't EXPECT the team to make a comeback when we trail. Our defense may regress toward the mean next year with the possible (likely?) losses of Jones, Sneed, and Gay. But, barring injury, we will NEVER again see Mahomes with a lack of fire power at his disposal like we have this season.

West 6,713 Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 They could lose in the 1st Rd or win the SB as mentioned....But they have to plan clean football. Defense is real....The Offense, other than Mahomes, Kelce, Rice and Pacheco, is like watching a "stooges" movie Fmbl2187 and oldtimer 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calichief 3,016 Posted December 12, 2023 Share Posted December 12, 2023 Bright side is- dolphins lose to a bad team/ haven’t beat anyone ravens almost lost to the rams chiefs are still ok if they can get it together/ I don’t see it though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sith13 1,746 Posted December 12, 2023 Share Posted December 12, 2023 Of course we make it to the playoffs. The schedule isn't harsh and I think a roster shakeup will boost some output. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of our losses have been more about self inflicted wounds than it has the other team just kick the chiefs ass. This team is 11-2 without turnovers, drops and penalties. We've been negative in the turnover ratio in our last 4 losses, and we have been positive in turnover ratio in a game since Oct 12 against Denver. We're talented enough that cleaning up the turnovers alone would put us among the top 3 teams in the NFL even with our shortcomings at receiver. If it cleans up the mistakes, a Super Bowl run is very possible, but conversely, if the team continues to step on it's own dick, a home wild card game loss is entirely possible as well. We will still win the division tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noah grey, who has no drops, and looks really good, can’t even get a target last week… I love Reid but he goes totally brain dead in stretches of seasons… what exactly do you see shaking out?

I have the Chiefs losing to Cinci in my preseason predictions and the way things are going that is still not too far from being realistic but we will have 1 more loss at least. Nationally Televised games seems to be the Chiefs Kryptonite which does not bode well for the playoffs..what are they like 1-4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fmbl2187 2,279 Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 We have a good team with a wide receiver corp that continues to make mental errors with no improvement, week after week. To imagine that this will be "fixed" or straightened out at team meetings and in practices is a fantasy, because is a problem with personnel.. Everyone coming out of college and making it to a roster in the NFL has talent. It is the level of it. We don't have enough of it in the WR room. We have a bunch of really athletic but kind of dumb players out there for Mahomes to throw to. We have an OC with no fire in him. So, it is quite possible that we don't make the playoffs. If we do, it is likely one and done. But we have a great nucleus and a year for Veach to get us some additional reliable targets. I think our chances at a Super Bowl are a realistic goal for us next year. I think, I predicted 10-7 or possibly 11-6 at the beginning of the season, so I am not disappointed really. It's hard to maintain a dynasty year after year. artsy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moons314 2,463 Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 The 2019 team had a stretch where they lost 4 of 6 and won the super bowl. The 2021 team lost 4 of it's first 7, and lost the AFCCG in OT. The Chiefs have overcome rough patches in the past and still had success. There's no reason this year can't be similar, just need to get healthy and make the run. mex 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fmbl2187 2,279 Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 After reading today what happened on Arrowhead Pride, a season ending fracture of the index finger on Justin Herbert's thowing hand (out for the season), it is now obvious that ALL of our remaining regular season games will be against teams using a backup QB. Now, I am pretty certain that we will get to the playoffs. But we won't be able to get through the playoffs. oldtimer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're losing one score games in games where we are negative in the turnover ratio. If we stop the turnovers and cut down on penalties, there's enough talent on this team to overcome the WR drops and mistakes. Lamardirts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
