Kinda think it's the opposite. Chiefs generally look like the better team in the first half but then the second half kicks in the Bengals start exploiting mismatches.

Bengals and Eagles have the best rosters. Chiefs and Niners are here because they have great leadership and run solid organizations.

That said, if the Bengals oline sucks then they're going home

I was just talking about the high ankle sprain. He's lucky the Bengals don't get after the QB.

Mahomes played 1 game in 2017, btw. Nice of you to take the bait.

I'm teaching you what the real stats are. You can pull them since '18 if you're capable. It was you that picked 2017 (cherrypicked), not me.

If karma was a thing, the Bengals would advance to the super bowl and finally win it because they got hosed in the playoff seeding.

But as a Chiefs fan I'm fully aware the football gods don't give two fucks about karma.

They may not give two fucks, but they sure as fucking shit give A fuck!

The hype for Eagles and Chiefs to make it to SB is strong. Regardless of who makes it, I’m looking forward to a couple of really good games and also would like to see Part 3 of the Bengals-49ers … the Showdown, remastered, whatever you want to call it.

I got the niners with 30 plus. I think you guys make a slight comeback in the 4th to seem respectable.
34-24, something like that

I'm with you. I am kind of thinking the AFC game winds up being lower scoring than folks think. Hobbled Mahomes, and the Bengals oline not being able to protect Burrow.

Then I think the NFC game could be a lot higher scoring. Massive playmakers on offense for both teams and maybe the two best offensive lines in football going at each other.

What I see in the NFC showdown, both the 49ers and Eagles fans are very confident in their team winning, while I see the Chiefs and Bengals fans both thinking shit...we may lose this game, we could win it, dang I hope we win it, but damn, I think we may lose this thing. haha

The AFC match up is so damn close the odd makers don't even know what to do with the betting line. 2.5 chiefs, to 2.5 bengals, to even, to +1 chiefs. This line has been all over the damn place and is basically sitting at dead even because usually the home team gets +3.

Trent Williams is great but not much else to write home about on that 49ers oline.

Two of the best defenses and defensive lines too. But I know what you mean. In this league even the best defenses give up big plays. If Purdy is legit he should be able to hit on a couple. I know Hurts will.

This has been one of the better smack talk threads heading into the conference match ups for a good while. Enjoying it.

Niners/Eagles is the real superbowl.

Chiefs/Bengals playing for 2nd place.

You sound very confident, what’s the scoop?

I would pick the Chiefs and Bengals all day against the 49ers, I'll say that much.
