2025 Opponents Set

[SpringStein]

Home Away
Kansas City Chiefs Kansas City Chiefs
Los Angeles Chargers Los Angeles Chargers
Las Vegas Raiders Las Vegas Raiders
Jacksonville Jaguars Houston Texans
Tennessee Titans Indianapolis Colts
Dallas Cowboys Philadelphia Eagles
New York Giants Washington Commanders
Cincinnati Bengals New York Jets
Green Bay Packers

Nine home games - but drawing Packers as a third place team for the ninth game wasn’t the easiest draw. One of the “fun” games will be at Washington with Daniels vs Nix.

** That spacing didn’t work out - hopefully you can figure out that first column are home games and second are away.

Wouldn’t be surprised if that Washington game ended up a prime time game.

They would be stupid not to make that a primetime game after the season both of these guys had and the success of both organizations.

AFC South and NFC East. Should be a number of winnable games in there. Also looking forward to an AFC West season where the Chiefs are vulnerable.

Surely the Chiefs cannot continue to get this lucky year in and year out. It really does remind me of some of our 2015 season. Talented team for sure, but the bounces went our way that year just like the bounces almost always went the way of the Chiefs this season.

As for the overall schedule it is so tough to know from one season to the next what to expect. AFC South could see a resurgence if the right coaches get hired. NFC East so much depends again on the coaching and who are the QB's. I could see Daniels having a sophomore slump making that game against Washington a little easier but it also could be one of the tougher matchups.

How long did New England get lucky with Belichek and Brady? Just saying.

Good point. I don't think the NFL is completely rigged but the one thing they can control is the refs and we have seen more times than not somehow the Chiefs end up on the winning side of a flag. You Bengal fans know that better than most.

We indeed do, but we are not in their division, so trust me, your team has been at the wrong end of that more than most. Same thing happens to us with Pittsburgh, less so with Baltimore and Cleveland. I would say it is about 50/50 with them, but you would be surprised how often I feel we get screwed against Pitt. Doesn't help when you have had a losing program like Cincinnati playing an NFL gem like Pitt.

Another thing we for some reason have a disadvantage that I don't really get....when a franchise gets a superstar QB, they want to protect the gems of the NFL, but for some reason Burrow doesn't get the same treatment as Rodgers, Mahomes, etc. Burrow gets hit hard as hell and draws very few penalties when he is on the receiving end. If we breathe on Mahomes funny it seems to draw a flag. Burrow gets hit in the helmet, two guys weighing close to 525 pounds both landing on him with full weight, hit hard as hell when he is one foot in bounds and one foot out of bounds and getting launched. Guys taking an extra step that is not afforded to them on other QB's before shoving Burrow to the ground. It is a good thing Burrow is as tough as nails.

Hello Carl when NFL has gambling sites as sponsors refs will control outcomes. I thought Brady had the flag favor bubble but, he doesn't hold the candle to the bubble Pat gets now. Its why I think KC has a legit shot and will be 3 peat a SB champion. KC can coast in the regular season and step it up in playoffs. KC follows the NBA MO 100% real season starts in playoffs. Maybe if they 3 peat Andy would retire.

Why would he retire when the golden horse is feeding his career stats, money and legacy? He is on easy street with the NFL and the media crush of Mahomes.

I would say Burrow unfortunately went to the wrong market. Cincy was not among even the top-10 most watched teams this year. It is a small market team that fans do not travel well for leaving the NFL to care a lot less whether Burrow plays or not. Now playoffs is a different boat since there are no competing games to watch so Burrow would have been a nice story for the NFL if they had made the playoffs.

Oh they will for sure get the calls. Any team that wants to eliminate the Chiefs this year will have to do it by a couple of TD's worth to make it where the officials cannot dictate the ending of the game. Heck it wouldn't surprise me if the NFL helped the broncos out this week to give the Chiefs an easier path to the Super Bowl by helping us beat maybe their biggest competition in the Bills.

Burrow and Chase have changed that. Since they have been here, Cincinnati is one of the highest rated watched prime time games in the NFL over last 4 years. They are averaging 4-6 prime time games per season because their viewership is consistantly near the top of all teams in the NFL.

Hmmm then we must be looking at 2 different reports. They were not top-10 in the report I looked at.

I expect Denver to beat the Bills. Only hurdle is we beat them last time we played there they might be more ready for us..
