A weekend for the Chiefs I thoroughly enjoyed. However whoever makes the playoffs has a real chance of going all the way. No heavy favourites. All inconsistent. All with strengths and all with flaws including the Chiefs.

Wide open this year.
I’m trying to look at the positives from Thursday nights game from a chargers perspective. Convincing myself that if Derwin James doesn’t go out injured during the game KC doesn’t make the td play to tie the game let alone win in OT.
Chiefs defense looks good even though they gave up 28 points and somehow allowed the chargers run for almost 200 yards. Chris Jones missing probably had a big part in that though. I still don’t get the hype around Mahomes. His “pass” on the 4th and goal was comical. I’m almost certain if/when Hill and Kelce go he will come down a few levels.
I think the same could be said across the entire NFL re the playoffs. For me Green Bay are really the only consistently good team and even they were a 2pt conversation away from losing to a backup quarterback and secondary at the Ravens.
Great win for the Saints last night shutting out the Bucs. 4-0 in the last 4 regular season meetings with them. Just a pity we didn't win the one that really mattered last year. Perhaps this year, although we have to make the Play-offs first.

Likely to get a look at Mahomes without his key weapons as Hill and Kelce are both in COVID protocol.
Took advantage of a festive 99p game pass offer so will be watching the eagles/Washington game tonight. Last time I did this was to see the game against the giants which could go down In history as the worst game I have ever seen.
Just watched back the Rams V Seahawks game from last night. Seattle fought hard and were the victims of a bad Non Pass Interference call late on which could have made a difference, but their season is probably now over. As for the Rams, Stafford was a bit up and down, but their D is formidable and they also have a certain Cooper Kupp, probably the best receiver in the league at the moment.
not one very outstanding team so far this season .. watch out for the teams in 'the middle' coming with a late charge .. my tuppence is on the Packers with a penny on the Vikings as viable outsiders
More shocking officiating handed Green Bay that win.
I can't remember a season like this where more comments are about the officiating than the plays.
And the most viewed nfl related videos on YouTube are “worst calls of the week” every week. It has been beyond atrocious for every team this year. No consistency from one team of officials to the next.

Strange decision to have Chiefs v Steelers as the main late game - always likely to be one sided. Raiders v Broncos is the key late game and predictably much tighter.

Losing to the Lions so emphatically, and the Cardinals so limited on offence, doesn't bode well for post-season.
As much as anything, it'll be the doubts that the Cardinals players will have about their team that will be their undoing...

WFT score 21-7.
Let's see if we can do "Cowboy things" again....
