The fact that there is a possibility we could see the Titans playing the Eagles in the Super Bowl is mind blowing.

Sounds good to me.

I'm not saying they are not but my guess is most Ravens fans and half of NFL fans would tell you the Ravens "at their best" are better than the Chiefs "at their best".
Here is a crazy thought that I hope doesn't come true, I have a bad feeling we won't see one of those two teams in the AFC Championship.

On a side note, the Packers (who two weeks ago I felt were not a great team by any stretch of my imagination) all of a sudden very well may be the best team in the NFC.

The Chiefs beat the Ravens back in September. Great! What if I said that game was in Arrowhead where the Chiefs wouldnt be playing the Ravens. What if I said that Lamar Jackson has thrown for 23 touchdowns and run for 800 yards since then. What if I said the Ravens havent lost since September beating multiple playoff teams including a 41-7 win versus a team the Chiefs lost to. What if I said the Ravens are sitting their players in week 17 because theyve already wrapped up the overall 1 seed? I guess it might not matter what I say but it might matter to the Chiefs who might have to play the overall 1 seed in Baltimore. We will see what happens!

Objectively, the Ravens have clearly been the better team over the course of the season. There are many subjective reasons supporting the positions that (a) the Chiefs' A-game is better than the Ravens', and (b) the Chiefs are getting close to their A-game.

And further, the Raven's schedule was pretty easy for many weeks. The biggest difference between the teams remaining is the schedule they played and when they played certain teams. KC had a front-loaded schedule that helped induce a number of injuries. The Chiefs may close out with six straight wins and a healthy line-up. Ingram's injury looked pretty bad to me. The Chiefs can now afford to come after Jackson. It is what you have to do to win.

It seems like the single most likely outcome is for them to just get beat by the Ravens. That’s not a very satisfying outcome, particularly if they don’t play poorly.
And 810 will be epic the next morning.

Captured the groove quite well, along with the requisite number of "I", "me" and "my" references.

What if I told you the Chiefs, for the better part of the game dominated the Ravens without Fisher or Hill. Narrative can go both ways. While the Ravens have been consistent throughout the course of the year you could make the case there isn't any team right now playing better than the Chiefs.

You give me the way the defense is playing right now and a full firing offense of Hill, Watkins, Kelce and Mahomes that combination can beat anyone anywhere.

Eli looking like he'll be done in New York.

He's perhaps the most polarizing player ever in terms of Canton.

Career Yards: 7th all time
Career TD's: 7th all time
Passer Rating: 84.1 same as Flacco
4 Pro Bowl's
0 All-Pro teams
2 Super Bowl MVP's

He'll probably go in, but two sides could debate that forever with no concessions.

He'll be a fringe guy that I think gets in. And no matter what side that you argue for, you're right in that argument.

I think he gets in, but I wouldn’t vote for him. He’s never been a Top 5 QB in any season he played.

Never a question of if Eli gets in. He played for the Giants. The New York media wins these kinds of battles. Namath is case in point. He completed less than half his passes and threw more interceptions than TDs in his Super Bowl year. In fact, he thew 47 more interceptions than TD passes over his career and was a 50/50 on completions his whole career.

I think he’s going to make it past the cuts, but if he does get left off, I’ll laugh, a lot.
