Do you think the Chiefs would beat the Patriots as a 7th seed?

[Billsfed1]

Still lots of football left, and anything can happen…but one of the scenarios that has crossed my mind is the Bills finishing as the top Wildcard, and the Chiefs the bottom Wildcard.

 

If the Chiefs got past say…Indy or Denver in the Wildcard round, what would your confidence level be in them beating the Patriots the following week?

 

With the way both teams are playing right now…if KC mostly plays that way to the end of the season, my money would be on them because this is the first kick at the can the Patriots have had from a top position since TB12.

 

On one hand that would make me really nervous, the Chiefs blowing past teams on the road, but on the other…if the Bills beat the AFCN winner and then whoever in the Divisional round, the last game of the season before the Super Bowl would be at Highmark Stadium

The Pats have had a remarkable season, but the fairy dust will likely be gone by the playoffs.  They'd have a very tough time w/ a seasoned team like the Chiefs.

 

[Reks Ryan]

Yes

[zow2]

Panthers

Bills

Saints

Titans

Browns

Falcons

Bucs

 

Thats the list of murderers row teams that NE has beaten on their streak.  I give them credit for winning at Tampa off the Bucs bye week. That was well earned.

I don’t think they are ready to beat the other experienced AFC teams in playoffs. I think they’d lose to any of them.

Yes

[Big Turk]

Yes and it wouldn't be close.

[frostbitmic]

Yes ... by 20+ points

This came up at work today. The Chiefs can beat anyone in the playoffs.

 

McDaniel would be good, but Reid & Spagnola would outwork them.

 

The Patriots sparked too early. They're not supposed flash until next year and they're a little premature.

Chiefs@Patriots for the AFCC. Book it. 

[uticaclub]

We are going to have to root for the Pats to beat KC in the AFC Championship so they don't go 4 times in a row

I rooted for the Patriots exactly once in my life. When they played Brady. 

 

I had to take several showers and felt nauseous and ashamed for days.

No chance. More likely one and done. 

[YoloinOhio]

Nah

The Chiefs don't look like a SB team this year, and could easily lose their next 2 games (at Denver, vs Indy) which would put them at 5-6 with the Chargers and Denver also left. They could miss the playoffs. But if they squeak in at 10-7 and NE continues to play well and is say 14-3, I'm taking NE.     

[CircleTheWagons99]

Yes. No question.

Something tells me those jerseys are a curse 😂

New England is going to win out, get the 1 seed and likely go to the Super Bowl.
