The Chiefs are off to a great start for a playoff spot this year.

So are the Dolphins who start off with 2 road wins.

Then you have the almost sure things like Denver, NE, and Texans.

My guess is that only one team from the North makes it, probably Cincy.

And there are the Colts, and the Chargers look pretty good so far.

Last year the playoff teams were, NE, Balt, Cincy, Denver, Houston, and Indy. Typically at least 2 don't repeat. My guess is that Miami and KC get in this year, and Colts and Ravens are out.

I think Miami is overrated. They'll win some games this year b/c their schedule is so weak though.

I'm more impressed w/ KC. Beating Dallas then going to Philly and limiting a high scoring Eagles team to 16 points in a short week is pretty damn good.

The Chefs could be 9-0 when they go to Denver to play Manning and Crew, they have a soft enough schedule that they could win between 11-14 games.

Crenell was lousy in CLE and KC, nice guy but a shitty HC.

The Chiefs play a ridiculously lousy schedule. Their defense has played well but I still don't believe in the team. They'll likely win 9 or 10 games because of how easy their schedule is but like the 2010 Chiefs, I don't see them going anywhere until they get a franchise QB.

Playing Denver twice, the Giants (who are still a good team), an improving Raider team, plus the Colts does not constitute an ridiculously lousy schedule. Dallas is really good too, and they already beat them.

say what you want but that chiefs D is no joke.

Houston and Hali were good last season on the egde, Johnson has always been a stud at ILB, Berry and Flowers are great players in the secondary,which got even stronger when they signed Sean Smith in the off season from Miami..they've just been waiting on the line. Now Poe is playing in beast mode and Tyson jackson started to come around a bit.

Chiefs D is no joke - way better than ours right now, by far

Yup. There is a big difference between the 2013 Chiefs and the 2012 Cards. The Chiefs have a stud RB in Charles; and Smith is still much better than any QB the Cards had last year. Chiefs can't put up 30 pts a game, but they can put up 20, and they don't turn the ball over.

The Chiefs are making the playoffs this year, no doubt in my mind.

And Miami has an excellent D also. It's their offense that is a question mark still. How good is Tannehill? Well he beat Luck in Indy, so he's looking very promising right now.

I only see 9 teams with a legitimate shot as playoff teams in the AFC. And 5 look like locks, NE, Cincy, Houston, Denver, KC. The last team will come from Miami, Balt, Indy, and SD.
