Our schedule is significantly more challenging down the stretch after that, but we’ll know better where each team stands by December 15th for sure, I’d imagine. If we can get the lucky and the Bills drop two out of that three, that sets us up nicely for the final stretch. If they only drop one in that stretch then we’ll have our work cut out for us. [Reply]

Like Nick Wright said, the last time the Chiefs lost, they won 15 straight.... but some will always be prisoners of the moment. [Reply]

I’d bet the Lions beat the Bills.
I also think the Bills drop one WTF game.
The issue I see for the Chiefs is that they can’t have a WTF loss. They can drop the games to like the Steelers and Texans, but have to win the others. [Reply]

I guess with the Bills having the bye we need to win the next two and then see where we stand. We take care of our business the next couple of weeks there's a good chance we find ourselves out front with a two-game lead. [Reply]
We seem to be the only top team or average team for that matter, that Allen routinely plays near his best against. I believe they will lose two of their remaining NFC games. We can lose three I think by seasons end but I also believe after the next four games we will have at least a 2 game lead, with a 3 game lead being possible. [Reply]

We for sure need to go 3-1 at worst in this CAR, LVR, LAC, CLE stretch. 4-0 might give us the opportunity to drop two out of three against HOU, PIT, and DEN.
Something to note, Brock Purdy is dealing with a shoulder injury. He may not play this Sunday. Hopefully it doesn’t keep him out against Buffalo the following week or else that should be an easy win for them. [Reply]
I take it back, nfc west rams and 49ers might turn out to be easy match ups for the bills since it seems like these two teams don’t stop beating the shit out of eachother and causing injuries. [Reply]

Good observation. I hadn't thought about that, but you're right.
Right now, there's this idea that the pressure is on KC instead of Buffalo, coming off the loss to them on Sunday.
But they're on their bye now. If we take care of business against Carolina and Vegas, we'll be 11-1 and they'll be going into their game with SF at 9-2.
Definitely puts them more in 'catch up' mode where those next 3 games they have (SF, LA & Detroit) become critical for them. And I expect them to drop one of those, if not two. [Reply]
Really good team that isn't going to be able to string together more than two playoff wins. Record looks better than they are because the schedule hasn't been very strong. [Reply]
