Can't wait to get crushed for this opinion, but it just feels like asking for an undefeated season while chasing a threepeat is bad juju... its asking for too much IMO
I'd much rather we lose a game or two just to keep everyone frosty, to remind them that yes they can be beaten if they're not playing their best ball... look no further than the Patriots undefeated season to see what can happen when a team sniffs too many of its own farts
I don't want to meet Detroit in the Super Bowl with our heads in the clouds
Maybe I'm just being superstitious, maybe not... what say you? [Reply]

I'm pretty sure the Chiefs are focused on game at hand and that learned their lesson last year overlooking the Raiders on Christmas.
We can go undefeated AND threepeat but got to beat the Buccaneers this Monday to do it. Then worry about the next game.
Exactly. Look, if the Chiefs somehow manage to go undefeated, I won't think it sucks. But there are more important things to worry about. Primarily, keeping our guys healthy, which has already been a major problem all year long. And let's not forget that we got an early bye, so there are no more breaks. [Reply]
Listen, we are living in CHIEFS history. THIS is the greatest times for the CHIEFS so get ALL you can @ this current CHIEFS timeline. Chiefs Kingdom needs to reap all that they can currently! Keep pushing! :-) Super Bowl LIX or bust baby! :-) Let's FREAKING GEAUX! [Reply]
Sure. Why not go undefeated and win the Superbowl.
However, from a practical stand point, the only scenario where the question would matter is the January 5 game against the Broncos if the Chiefs have first seed locked up. I do not forsee having the first seed completely locked up prior to the game on Christmas day.
3rd Consecutive SB > Undefeated season.
The Bronco's game would be 11 weeks straight of playing. At that point, everyone will need some rest. Entering the playoff run with everyone healthy will be more important to curb stomping the Broncos again, the backups will get some reps before the playoffs. As a poster mentioned earlier, the Chiefs backups may be able to beat the Donx. [Reply]
It's too early to really have it as a goal. But going 16-0 and resting healthy starters so they can have no in game reps for almost a month would be some cowardly bullshit. 09 Colts are not the team to emulate. There is absolutely no reason to think dropping a game helps their playoff chances. [Reply]
