Friendly reminder... The Jets/Patriots/Titans/Ravens/Dolphins aren't nearly as good as us. We are getting healthier/better (surprise!) every week. I know I sound like a broken record but, once we get healthy, we can beat anyone in the playoffs. The are no dominant teams in the NFL this year.

Out of the gate the Bills looked dominant but they’ve fallen back. Still have to be the afc favorites. In the nfc, it’s the eagles or sF and sf is playing with Mr Irrelvant at QB. Would be quite a feat if they can pull it off

I go back to Game 2. We had no Keenan Allen... and were still out-playing the Chiefs. That 99-yard pick-6 was a back-breaker.
I claimed then (as I claim now)... I'm not afraid of the Chiefs. The Chiefs are as good (if not better) than the Bills, Eagles, or 49ers... and we're as good (if not better) than the Chiefs.

When we get Bosa back...
If Slater is able to play in the playoffs...

Every one of those teams is strong along the OL/DL. When we are healthy... so are we. Both have been re-built the last 2 years. It's football 101.

And KC finished regulation tied so they must really suck. Oh, wait, they are the class of the AFC. Weird.

And KC (and Buffalo and Cincinnati) have all had several dominant wins (and no blowout losses), and taken care of business in most of their other games, which is why they are the class of the AFC. So I really don't get what you're trying to say. Weird, indeed.

We haven't even clinched a wildcard spot and folks are worried about playoff path to SB. LOL.

That's what a couple of wins will do for ya, I guess. People are all over the "negative" posters after a loss (or two or three), but visions of Super Bowls are dancing in the Pollyanna's heads before we've even MADE the playoffs and that's OK. Real fans and all that.

With 86% chance to make playoff, we can dream.

Looks good on paper but reality is if we lose a game that goes down quite a bit.
We just need to win our games and we haven't been convincingly doing that, but we have won the last two against good teams.

I wish I could put more stock in that stuff. Especially when it’s in our favor.

I think what he's trying to say is that Buffalo and Cincinati both have some embarrassing losses (Dolphins, Jets, Steelers, Browns). And yes, Bengals got blown out by the Browns (32-13) when Chase was out. None of them have had the mass injuries we've dealt with.

Nothing wrong with that take, making the playoffs will be that much sweeter for you.

We control our own destiny. I'm gonna try and look ahead. What's done is done. We just need to take care of business. Let's see how far Staley has come.

Matching up well and competitively withthe Chiefs does t necessarily mean we match up well with others. I don’t fear the Chiefs if that’s who we might see in the playoffs.

when we get Bosa back? How bout if?

Win the next game. Worry about later, later.
