Chiefs vs Colts Thread

[Jack of Arcades]

The Colts offense doesn't even average 10 possessions a game.

Seriously, go look at the Broncos game. The Broncos ran the ball 36 times for 227 yards and 3 touchdowns, and limited the Colts to 9 drives. The Colts still won, and they won it on the easiest 2 minute drill I've ever seen. Oh, and they did it on the road.

I mean, the Chiefs can win, but the Colts are better.

The squares seem to be fawning over the Chiefs. Makes one wonder if Indy -7 is a profitable bet.

I think betting over on the 50.5 line is a better bet.

Yup, that's about it. Anyone remember Pitt last year?? Don't confuse the winning team with the better team. That said it's tough to beat the Colts in that dome (artifical sound and all Needle [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]), but the Chiefs can do it.

If the Colts get by the Chiefs, they'll beat Balt and NE will upset SD. It would make for a great AFCC game.

There's a HUGE difference between this years Chiefs team and last years Pittsburgh team. Pittsburgh came into the playoffs white hot. They won their last 4 games after losing 3 in a row including an embarrasing loss to Cincy. Meanwhile, KC has won their last 2 but I wouldn't call them "white hot" by any means. I'd say more like they luck boxed their way into the playoffs. The Chiefs have played decently lately but not great, with inconsistant play before their last 2 wins.

FWIW I hate people calling anybody "this year's Steelers." I mean the Steelers last year were the first team to ever do what they did. Why is it they are the only team to ever win three straight road games to get to the Superbowl? Because it is near immpossible to do.

Can the Chiefs win this game? They are a bad match-up for the Colts. Because Herm will get Johnson carries and they will control the clock. While the Colts can get away with a few mistakes the Chiefs will really have to play a near perfect game to win. The real key will be the job Trent Green does holding on to the ball. You know Johnson will have a good game, you know Peyton will have a good game. It all comes down to how well Trent Green plays.

As a colts fan I predict this will be a very painful game to watch.

I took Colts -6.5 and love it. At -7 I'd lean Colts but probably hold off and hope to get 6.5.

Even with a dominant run game, the Chiefs won't be able to just outscore the Colts. Since they are not going to be consistently competitive on defense, they need to force a couple turnovers to win the game. Maybe Ty Law will step up and kill Manning like he has done in the past. I think its doable, but they are definitely still dogs and seven points sounds about right.

I don't think this will be close. Colts 38 - Chiefs 17
