    Kansas City ML???

    What are your guys' opinion of this? I know a lot of analysts are considering this game a pick'em...but I can't see anyway where Kansas City wins this game. Then again I couldnt see the Jets and Seahawks winning either. Please....discuss

    Jets were easily foreseeable, Seahawks were not.

    But back to this game, yes Chiefs have a chance. The Ravens were shit the last two weeks vs. two shitty teams, and in fact they should have lost last week (five Cincy turnovers, three in red zone). Even if the Chiefs are not a bona fide playoff team, they are still better than the Browns and Bengals.

    Plus Chiefs were undefeated in meaningful home games. I'm willing to forgive loss to Raiders, as they had division clinched and no shot at first round bye. No difference between being a three-seed or a four-seed when the Jets are a six-seed.

    There are always numerous reasons to take any team for any game. I'm on KC but won't try to scrounge for reasons to justify it. I'm taking them on spread and I know they will lose by at least 10. So I'm a fukking idiot for taking them.

    It's one of those no-brainer games where the line makes you second guess yourself and then you end up taking the side with shitty value, like me.

    no way KC wins. this game has the feel of the ravens-dolphins playoff game a couple years ago in miami. baltimore toyed with them. same thing tomorrow i think. baltimore way too good to be out in first round.

    If you are going to play the Chiefs, then ML is the correct play IMO. The Chiefs could win, but I think it'll be hard because they are so one dimensional. The Ravens are going to take away the run and force Cassel to beat them. It could be a field day for the Ravens front 7 if this happens.

    Actually, Cassel is at his best with the short passing game, i;e., swing passes to backs and quick hitters, which also may be best way to attack Baltimore. Cassel only sucks when he throws the ball more than 15 yards.

    Me liking the Chiefs has absolutely nothing to do with today's results, nor should any pick be based on things that happen outside the teams involved. I gave my KC reasoning in post 2.

    This is the only game that I capped to cover this weekend. Baltimore is 7 points better than this Chiefs team on any field.

    Chiefs have good running game and pretty good defense (albeit young). Plus home field. They can definitely win.

    Of course the Chiefs can win. Seattle proves that anyone can win.....But I'm on Baltimore.

    If KC covers, they will win; dog hardly ever just covers in playoffs. However KC is more similar to Bengals of last season. Ravens are better and played better last week. Chiefs have no chance.

    If it hits. 3.5 then its done. The question for me remains why hasn't it 3.5 with almost all the action on balty?

    I'm sure KC will make a game of it.... always beware of a team that he nothing to lose. They tend to over achieve.
