Chiefs vs Colts Thread
 

Well I was just looking on ESPN where they are talking about the game and all and this seems a little funny to me. They give the Chiefs the edge in 5 of the 9 catagories yet the overall to the Colts. Here is the link to that page.

Also, I feel this game has upset written all over it. Lamar Hunt would be proud if he were still alive and how sweet would it be if the Chiefs were able to bring the Lamar Hunt trophy back to Kansas City? Is it something that the Chiefs can do? I think so and here is why. The Chiefs backed their way into the playoffs. They have nothing to lose since they werent even supposed to be here. They have Larry Johnson and I dont think the Colts can stop him. He will rush for around 200 yards and 3 TDs and he will carry them into round 2.

Now lets look at the next game if the Chiefs win. They will play SD at SD. Take a look at the game they played there where the Chargers won 20-9. The Chiefs blocked a punt the Chargers recovered after a Chiefs player tried to pick up when it had crossed the LOS. The very next play LT broke a long run for a score. This could have been a 14 point swing. Herm has always had the Chargers number and the Chiefs were the last team to beat the Chargers. This one will be tough but I think it can happen.

AFC championship game will be either at Baltimore or NE and Baltimore will give the Chiefs some trouble and is the one game I think they will have a tough time winning if played. NE is beatable and so are the Ravens but I think the Ravens match up better vs KC than any of the other teams in the AFC. The Chiefs would be riding a 4 game win streak coming into this game if it happened so anything is possible.

My prediction this week is the Chiefs win at Indy 38-31

The Colts are 8-0 at home. The Chiefs and 3-5 on the road. HMMMM. That is all I feel like saying for now.

The Colts won't need to stop Larry Johnson, since the Chiefs can't stop Peyton Manning.

The only team that they beat at home that is in the playoffs is the Eagles and the NFC is horrible. Beyond that the only other team worth mentioning is the Bengals.

True that was week 3.

Colts have been in a freefall the last half of the season. They lost to freaking Houston. They have to be fairly shell-shocked right now. All it takes is a little pressure on Manning and a few breaks go the Chiefs' way early, then the Colts start pressing. Of course a few early Colts scores and Trent Green turnovers and it's over.

Also I think with the way the last 2 weeks of the season played out, the football gods clearly are blessing the Chiefs right now. Do I really believe that? No. But let's hope the players do.

LJ will run the ball 30 plus times and the Colts wont get the ball 10x this week so their offense will have to play perfect when they do have the ball to win.

And KC has beaten who on the road? St Louis, Oakland and Zona. Wow, impressive. I'm not saying Indy will win but KC hasn't been all that impressive on the road. By far their most impressive wins have come at home.
