We are the ONLY undefeated team in the NFL! GO CHIEFS
Being a longtime Chiefs fan I am elated. The turn around from 2-14 is fantastic. Still, I can't help but think of 1995 and the NFL best 13-3 record and a quick playoff loss, or the 1997 season for that matter. I am not about to write the Chiefs into the Super Bowl, in fact I would be satisfied with a single playoff victory, something that has not happened in 20 years.
The Chiefs have a tough defense. I like their front line and linebackers on defense. Everyone knows that defense wins championships, unless you are a Chiefs fan that goes back to Marty Schottenheimer, then you know it takes a little offense too, especially in today's NFL.
Seven weeks in I would rate the strongest teams as follows:
1) Saints. Their defense is stronger than I thought it would be.
2) Seahawks - one bone crunching defense and I like Wilson
3) 49ers - Very talented and back on track, but if they do not over take the Seahawks, they are goners in the playoffs.
4) Broncos - great offense, but a suspect defense.
I do not mean to be a downer, I love the Chiefs, but I do not believe their best record to date, means they are the best team. I would favor the Chiefs against any of the above teams on a neutral field. This is a franchise that doesn't fail to disappoint. They have broken my heart too many times. As far as I am concerned the curse started when I was an eleven year old boy and the Chiefs lost to the Dolphins in overtime.
Yea, the Broncos lost!!!!!
