I found a source on my home thing.

"Since 1990, the Chiefs are an NFL-best 103-34 at home"

I have a 2-1 (his $100 to my $50) bet with kyro that the Chiefs will get 8 wins or more. 7-9 he wins, 8-8 I win. I guess I have to give you 7-8-1 due to the wording of your bet. Deal Kyro?

Deal.

I was waiting for Kyro to post before posting this, but have you looked at their schedule?

Sun 9/30 at San Diego 4:15 pm
Sun 10/7 Jacksonville 1:00 pm
Sun 10/14 Cincinnati 1:00 pm
Sun 10/21 at Oakland 4:05 pm
bye
Sun 11/4 Green Bay 1:00 pm
Sun 11/11 Denver 1:00 pm
Sun 11/18 at Indianapolis 1:00 pm
Sun 11/25 Oakland 1:00 pm
Sun 12/2 San Diego 1:00 pm
Sun 12/9 at Denver 4:15 pm
Sun 12/16 Tennessee 1:00 pm
Sun 12/23 at Detroit 1:00 pm
Sun 12/30 at NY Jets 8:15 pm

Winning 7 of those 13 games would be a tall order for all but a few teams in the NFL.

The Chiefs will probably be favorites or very close at Detroit, at Oakland and most of their home games. Denver and Cincy look like crap. Jacksonville is tough, but we beat them pretty handily here last year when they still had playoff hopes. Tennesse is nothing spectacular, and if the Chargers are out of it by the time they come we'll be favorites.

No afc team except Indy and NE scares me at arrowhead and we only play Indy on the road. (We should just field all 2nd-stringers for that one.) Green Bay is a new wrinkle, but we very often destroy NFC contenders at arrowhead. Seriously, would you want to go to arrowhead when the Chiefs defense is rolling?

At Indy and at SD are the only two complete write-offs I see at this point. And I still have a faint glimmer of hope SD will melt down. Oh yeah and we always lose at Denver.

KC would not be favorites at Detroit if they played today. In fact, they wouldn't be favorites on a neutral field. Cinci and Denver may be playing like crap, but it's still better than what KC is playing like. And no, they will not be favorites at Oakland. Hell, they were only 3 points favorites at home against one of the worst teams in the league.

Agreed. Suzzer is FAR too optimistic about KC.

Re: ~~~ Official 2007 KC Chiefs Don\'t Totally Suck thread ~~~
 

I'll bet you $300 straight up that they don't get to seven wins

You should be licking your chops given your analysis

Re: ~~~ Official 2007 KC Chiefs Don\'t Totally Suck thread ~~~
 

The thread isn't titled "Suzzer wants to bet all of 2+2 on the Chiefs o/u win total"

Some of you guys need to relax.

When was the last time Detroit was favored at the end of the year vs. a non-horrible team? If they Chiefs are terrible they will be favored. But if my hypothesis is at all correct, we will be.

Chiefs have won 8 in a row over the Raiders, we're 27-8 against them since 1990. Doesn't guarantee a win. But if the game is close late, that streak really starts to work for us and against them. They're improving. But you don't go from one of the worst teams in the league to good that fast.

The fact that we beat Denver and SD at KC last year, with a worse team than we have this year, and Denver and SD both had better teams (as it looks right now), and we usually beat both of them at arrowhead, means nothing right?

I've outlined why I think there is at least hope we will get out of our offensive funk. The offense doesn't have to be great for us to win at home, just not god-awful. If Huard can get in a rhythm like he did in the 2nd half vs. MN, then things will open up for LJ.

Thanks Noodleman. When I saw that you had posted I knew at least if you blasted my theories, you'd have some insightful analysis other than "team sucks, old, bad, 8 wins lol - I believe it because the masses are never wrong".

I have a personal cause dammit. To stake a claim that my team is AVERAGE.
