First six games - 3 home, 3 road. Yeah, the first 2 games are 7 and 4 win teams, but the next 4 are against winning records from last year.
Cake walk? I don't know that I would call it that... @ SEA (7 wins in 2021) HOU (4 wins in 2021) 49ers (10 wins in 2021) @ Raiders (10 wins in 2021) Colts (9 wins in 2021) @Chargers (9 wins in 2021) They then have the Jets and Jags before the bye. Ok, fine - they're B2B like the SEA/HOU games. You gotta play them at some point, so not sure what would satisfy you guys. After the bye, aside from the Panthers... that's 9 games with 5 on the road and 8 against winning records from 2021. Like last year... I don't know what winning early against shitty teams helps them down the stretch. But, break out the kleenux if you need to dry your eyes. If Denver is as bad as most of you believe, it will prove out down the stretch. |

Here’s my first data point: in 2013, the Panthers went 12-4 with Steve Smith. He went to Baltimore, and the Panthers went 7-8-1 in 2014. |

Chiefs have consistently had one of the toughest schedules in the last 7-8 years--so having a first place schedule impacts them much less than other teams, since they get it all the time. |

We're not talking about opponents...we're talking about when said games occur within an 18 week season. |

2004 Vikings (with Moss) had the #4 O in the NFL. 2005 without Moss, they were #25.

San Francisco went from the #9 scoring offense in 2003 to the #30 in 2004 when they lost Terrell Owens.

In his last year with the Minnesota Vikings in 2004, Vikings went 8-8. The following year w/o him they were 9-7. In his second and last year with the Faiders (2006), they were 2-14. They improved 2 games the next year without him to 4-12. In his last full season with the Pats (2009), they went 10-6. The next year in 2010(he was cut after 4 games) they managed to go 14-2 without him for most of the season. Seems teams improved when Moss left and went somewhere else. Who says the same can't happen for the Chiefs w/ Hill? |

Want more? How about Jerry Rice.
He left the Niners in 2000 when they had gone 6-10 with him. Their first year without him they went 12-4. So, yes, there IS historical precedent for an elite unicorn type WR leaving a team and said team improving the following season. Would you like more examples?? |

I’m glad they gave us a break with the Jags after those first 8 games….but then gave us a 3 game stretch against the Chargers and SB teams the next 3 weeks. Chiefs schedule is insanely difficult. It was formulated that way on purpose |

Calvin Johnson (aka Megatron). Pretty good receiver, no?
His last year with the Lions in 2015 they went 7-9. Next year without him? 9-7 Shall I keep going . . . . . . . . . ? |
