If I was in Vegas it seems worthwhile to throw $20 down on the Bears, Chargers and Texans.  

That said just an amazing contrast in QB experience in these playoffs. Top seven teams feature 3 lock Hall of Famers all 37 or older who combine for over 50 playoff starts.  

And then four guys with a total of one postseason start all 24 or younger.  

How much does playoff experience matter? Just another reason Chiefs aside that I find this one of the most compelling playoffs in a long time and likely a big reason NFL viewership soared this year.

I'm surprised that the Bears aren't getting a little more respect.  They probably aren't ready to win it all, but they're more likely than the Chargers or Ravens IMHO.

I think it’s more to do with that division.  Seems Vegas believes Saints can handle the NFC teams easier than KC can the AFC BUT in a head to head they give it to Chiefs over Saints.

Mahomes has made the NFL a ton of money this year and has drawn in a lot of causal fans.   

Hope he can at least deliver one playoff win this postseason.

I just hope we win it before his contract comes up......You think our D is bad now. Wait till Pat is taking up $30+ million in cap

I have no doubt Mahommes will be a super bowl champ in the next few years. No reason the D should be crap when Mahomes cashes in. Draft well and those contracts off set his contract.

Veach needs to build this in a way where half the defense is playing under rookie deals when that happens.  It’s why we need to add, not subtract future draft picks especially after the 2019 draft  

 With CBA up after 2020 a lot can change.  I expect larger rosters, the end of mandatory inactives, 2 more regular season games and some tweaking of overall CAP.

Colts really turned their defense around fast by dumping big veteran contracts and adding a ton of speed.  Saints also did similar.

I think 9/4 is a heavier favorite than our 4/1. Unless that’s a typo.  But it’s nice to be up there.
