    Serious Question: Why does the AFC West get a playoff spot???
    All 4 AFC West teams are ranked 20th or lower in the league probably...

    Hell, the team in first in the AFC West now couldn't even cover a +45 spread at the Detroit Lions, the 5th best team in the NFC.

    We really need some kind of realignment. Last year, a terrible Seahawks team made the playoffs, and some garbage AFC West team will make the playoffs this year.

    I doubt any team in the AFC West could win the SEC West, but lets send them to the playoffs anyway and give them a first round home game.

      You misspelled "stupid" it should read "stupid question"

      Youre judging a team based on one game? The Saints are leading the South and they lost to the Rams, guess that division shouldnt get a playoff team either.

      And you know the Seahawks actually won in the playoffs last year right?


      You wonder why no one takes you seriously...

        How am I judging it based off one game?

        The Chiefs lost by 30+ at home to the Bills
        The Chiefs lost by 40+ on the road to the Lions
        The Chiefs barely beat the soon to be 0-16 Colts

        yet, they lead the AFC West.

        All 4 teams in the AFC West are mediocre or worse, yet one of them will get a first round home game. Why?

            Dolphins
            Colts
            Titans
            Jaguars
            Broncos
            Browns
            Seahawks
            Redskins
            Rams
            Cardinals
            Panthers
            Vikings

              The Saints just lost on the road to the 0-6 Rams starting AJ Feeley.

              So I think it is safe to assume that the Saints could lose on the road to just about any NFL team at any given time.

              Which further makes my point... why the HELL were the 10-6 Saints visiting the 7-9 Seahawks anyway?

              Why? The Saints would have won at the Superdome by 28 if the NFL got it right and put the better team at home.

              Why penalize a team for being in a legit division?

                Theyre tied for the lead, and Chargers, Raiders (if they put Campbell back in) and Chiefs are probably all in the top 20 in the NFL.

                    A lot of those are arguable. Actually, most of those are arguable.

                        Chiefs are in the top 20, yet can't cover +45 at Detroit? So I assume Detroit is the 2nd best team in the league in your mind, I'm hoping.

                            Isn't that what you do? I'm up substantially over the last few weeks. What about you, Mr. 'All in on a 2-4 Northwestern team +4 against a 6-1 Penn State team.

                              Chiefs are horrendous.

                              Their only wins are against bottom dwellers from other conferences and other AFC West opponents.

                                  You guys really think that a team deserves a first round home game just for winning their conference?

                                  The way this year is going, Buffalo might be playing AT Kansas City in the first round of the playoffs.

                                  You guys would approve of that, even though Buffalo pulled down Kansas City's panties and bent them over a railing on their home field?

                                      Chiefs lost their best offensive player and best defensive player in week 1 and laid a big fukkin egg early in the year obviously with horrible morale.....they obviously have gelled some and are playing much better lately......Guess its not OK that some teams get better after week fukkin 2?

                                          Either way, none of those teams are better than 3 AFC West teams.....so you are WRONG that all of the AFC West is 20th or worse, actually completely wrong......suck it

                                            Answer the question.

                                            Should the 9-7 Chiefs host the 10-6 Bills in the first round of the playoffs, when the Bills already won at Kansas City by 30+?

                                              Chiefs are in the top 20, yet can't cover +45 at Detroit? So I assume Detroit is the 2nd best team in the league in your mind, I'm hoping.
                                              Omg. Once again you cant base things off of one game. Is New Orleans the 30th best team in the league because they lost to the Rams? How can a person in law school be this stupid?

                                                Should the 9-7 Chiefs host the 10-6 Bills in the first round of the playoffs, when the Bills already won at Kansas City by 30+?
                                                As soon as you tell me which teams I listed are better than any of SD, Oakland,or KC???

                                                  New Orleans obviously just isn't a good road team.

                                                  New Orleans got stomped by 7-9 Seahawks on the road last year in the playoffs, so when you say, 'The New Orleans Saints', you need to realize that the Saints aren't even a good team on the road.

                                                  In the Superdome, the Saints are a great team. On the road, they are average, or worse.

                                                    I'd favor the Panthers over the Chiefs, depending on the location of the game.

                                                    And I'd favor a lot of those teams over Oakland right now. Oakland is going to struggle to put up 6 points the next few games.

                                                        The way this year is going, Buffalo might be playing AT Kansas City in the first round of the playoffs.

                                                        You guys would approve of that, even though Buffalo pulled down Kansas City's panties and bent them over a railing on their home field?
                                                        First of all, the 1st round home game is for winning the division. I see you're new to football. Here's an idea, when you grow up you can buy an NFL team, lobby for a spot on the rules committee, then bring up the idea that a team that wins it's division shouldn't get a 1st round bye.

                                                          The fact that youre still judging the Chiefs based on what they did in week 1 shows you dont have a clue though. They've won 4 straight and nearly 5 having regrouped from one of the biggest injuries for any team so far this year.

                                                            Regardless, no one in the AFC West is good. They are all mediocre to worse.

                                                            No one in the AFC West is top 15. So why give them a playoff spot? Why give them a first round bye? Because tradition?

                                                            I just don't think bad football teams should get playoff spots for beating bad football teams. Just me.

                                                                And you saw how ugly this game is I'm assuming. The Chargers lost this a lot more than the Chiefs won it.

                                                                    No one in the AFC West is top 15. So why give them a playoff spot? Why give them a first round bye? Because tradition?

                                                                    I just don't think bad football teams should get playoff spots for beating bad football teams. Just me.

                                                                    The NFC West last season was 100x worse than the AFC West this season.......you're acting like all 4 teams are god-awful which just aint true

                                                                      I think you are overrating the Chiefs significantly.

                                                                      Looking at their schedule, I envy it as a Bears fan.

                                                                      The Bears had to play the Packers, At Detroit, At New Orleans, Vs Atlanta... The hardest game the Chiefs have played is at Detroit, which would be the 3rd hardest game the Bears have played.
