Pats. The bye helped them fix some of their problems.

I also think whoever wins this game will crush the winner of the other game.

The Chiefs would "crush" the Broncos? They got 5 interceptions last time we played and still didn't "crush" us. The Chiefs offense isn't good or explosive enough to "crush" anybody.

Pats.

Chiefs ain't winning **** here.
Only way they will win of the defense plays lights out and Alex Smith don't **** up..

Just my opinion

 

[The Dangly One]

Patriots by 10

 

[Wild11MN]

Edelman expected back, right? That's a huge boost. Voted Chiefs but think Pats will probably win.

 

[darko]

Chiefs winning streak ends here.

Pats if the returning players are in game shape and can make a difference. Edelman primarily. They've been pretty fragile this year, maybe they should be happy they're not going up against a dumb, physical Bengals team?

Chiefs finally gunna play a solid team...finally gunna lose. Don't think its close. They showed me nothing today...except Hoyer stinks and I already knew that.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

i think KC has the defense to keep it close even with the Pats getting healthy.
in end i think NE finds a way to move on.

Chiefs won by 16 in a game the Broncos put up all of their points in garbage time. It absolutely was a crushing.

If Maclin is out that isn't going to help the Chiefs chances. Basically gotta hope they can keep the Patriots offense out of rhythm and go from there. They should be able to get pressure on Brady but with Edelman hopefully back he will be getting rid of it quicker.

Manning may have had his worst game as a pro and obviously shouldn't have been out there.

What's with your bizarre hatred of the Chiefs? You've been on their case the entire year for some reason. Did Andy Reid steal your wife or something?

Chiefs present a tough match up for the Pats. Chiefs are the toughest team in the NFL on tight ends, so that's going to present issues for Gronk, especially if he's not 100%.

To compound the problem for the Pats, the Chiefs relentless pass rush is sure to make things hard for Brady.

What's going to make things tough for the Chiefs is winning in Foxboro. That is always a tall order, and they don't have the offence to make this one a runaway despite the matchup advantage they have on the other side of the ball.

I think Edelman being back will help take some pressure off Gronk. They can't focus on him too much or they'll get burned. This game shapes up well for White if they double team Gronk.

On the defensive side, I still don't trust the Pats D, but Alex Smith without Maclin means they have to focus on Kelce and stopping the run. Feel confident NE pulls this one out.

It was a crushing in terms of the game really never being in doubt. I thought that was one of the best games our defense played this year too... it could have been a game where the Chiefs put up 50 considering the starting field position you guys were given time after time due to the turnovers.

Dominant and decisive victory... with a lot of aid on our part

Please beat the Pats though. I would love a rematch at Mile High... an AFC W representative in the SB is much better than the alternative IMO. Any update on Maclin?

 

[Habsawce]

Eric Berry vs. Rob Gronkowski. That's the match up to watch and will dictate so much of what happens in this game imo.

K.C. wants to run the ball and eat the clock, play good defense and keep the game close. They can do that, they have the shut down players and they have the pass rush to keep Brady throwing quick underneath throws. Where New England can win this game is where K.C. tends to struggle when they give up big chunks, so that should be their main focus. If they can protect Brady and he can move around the pocket, they'll win. However, if Houston and Hali run wild, Chiefs will win.

So many tasty match ups!
