Can you give me some insight into why? I'm finding it hard to believe in this team
thanks in advance, hoping to find a decent conversation about this game

And please don't forget the Chiefs played San Diego twice (#1 offense), the Texans and the Colts.
I guess that depends on what you think about their schedule. Playing 1 team with a winning record tends to help out the defensive stats
And they have the #12 offense. You wont catch me playing a public road favorite in one of the most difficult venues in the league.
#1 rushing offense?
Nothing to see there.
I'm not hammering anything, this play or another, but everything that Chiefs backers use to justify the play always goes back to good stats against poor opponents
I might just have my blinders on with this one.
Our opener today is tough but I'll lean slighty to Kansas City. The Chiefs were 7-0 at Arrowhead this year until a meaningless game against Oakland last Sunday. Matt Cassel has a 27-7 ratio of touchdowns to picks to compliment the #1 rushing attack in the league. The defense allowed just 14.7 points per game at home this year. Meanwhile in their last two games the lackluster Baltimore offense under Joe Flacco produced 97 yards passing and 20 points at Cleveland plus 101 passing yards and 13 points at home to Cincinnati. I just don't trust the Ravens as a road favorite. The Kansas City defense was shredded last Sunday by Oakland without Darren McFadden but many of the regulars weren't in the lineup. In the last two years the Ravens are 1-8 ATS facing quality opponents that have won between 60 and 75 percent of their games. I'm a little puzzled by this number too. The Ravens have road wins at Pittsburgh and against the Jets. They lost at New England in overtime and beat the Saints. Yet they are only a field goal favorite against the Chiefs who haven't won a playoff game since 1993? Among Baltimore's five road wins this year, two were by a field goal and another by six in overtime. KC has some history on their side however. Home playoff teams in the post-season opener that have won 60 percent or more of their games and play off a home loss in the regular season finale are at incredible 15-1 SU, 13-3 ATS since 1980.
Teams coming off a loss of 17-plus points in Week 17 (without resting their starters) are 0-5 against the spread in their first playoff game since 2002. One of those squads was the 2009 Eagles. Like this year's Chiefs, those Eagles made it to the postseason without beating a single team in the playoffs.
thatss what I was thinking but a lot of people like the chiefs so I am starting to doubt myself on this
You and me both. I just don't see how people see it that way and that usually bites me in the ass!
thank you sir, possibly luck since when posting my own plays I did horribly
Good call Utix
join the club on your streak
Great job dsgator.
