I have but when you google it, all the sources I looked at for the Chiefs, Raiders, and Chargers were different and the same.Quote:

Well, I'll take your word for it. :bananen_smilies046:Quote:

Our NFC divisional rotation, starting in 2007, goes North, South, East, West (2010) ... and now, starts again with the North.
Our AFC divisional rotation (excludes the West, our own division), starting in 2008, has been East, North, South (2010)... and now starts back in The East again.
That leaves the remaining two AFC divisions, of which, we will play the teams that finished in the same position as our own team (1st).
And those are The Steelers and The Colts.
In other words, the link is accurate. hahaQuote:

Winning the division doesn't help you a whole lot the following season.
Wow... this is gonna be a rough schedule...
Thanks bud! Nice research...AGAIN! :bananen_smilies046:Quote:

yeah... but they're NOT identical. the Chiefs WILL have the toughest schedule in the division. the NFL does its best to assure that in order to make the records as close to the same at the end of the year to promote "parity."Quote:

Only 2 teams that are different are Chiefs vs Steelers at home/Chargers vs Ravens at home AND Chiefs vs Colts away/Chargers vs Jags away.
Its damn near the same. haha
As for the Raiders, they just flipped the home and away games and replaced them with the Browns and Houston.
It drives me nuts the love the faiders get from the media. They improve slightly and they are the favorites. We improved MORE and we get nothing. Drives me nuts lol.Quote:

Looking forward to this schedule. It will definitely be a challenge for this team week in and week out. Plus I can't wait to go watch them on the road in Chicago!!!!
I don't know about you guys but I am more worried about knowing who our week 19 opponent is..
I stopped listening to the media a long time ago. You know it's been scientifically proven that people lose IQ points for every second they listen to those guys. :lol:Quote:

File this thread somewhere safe you will need it this time next year. I am going to say we atleast end with onw more win then we did this year and win our division again. Ok I here you Im nuts right...well no. If we can go from 4 wins to 10 under Haley in one year then after this next draft class and our rookies being in our system for their 2nd year plus key pickups in FA we are going to be a scary team to play. This all happens if the next draft class acts like the last one, and if we add Mcdaniels as our OC watch out because the Chiefs will Spearhead the NFL. Pioli is making us a winner like he did in NE. I dont care that this year was so easy and the next will be harder, our team will have tasted the playoffs this year and will be very hungry, its better if all the other teams just let us win the SB this year.
As scary as that schedule looks(and it is) as a fan it is going to be epic week in and week out. No easy games and if our team keeps improving and we somehow make it to the playoffs next year, battle tested thanks to that schedule, then we will be primed for a real legit SB run.
This year, Baltimore is our toughest game all year and it is finally coming in the playoffs. Thats not a good sign and I dont know if our young team can hang with the "big boys" quite yet.
Also, it is absolutely crucial that we perform better next year against our own division. This year wasnt so hot for us and if we have the same type of performance against the chargers, raiders and broncos that we did this year then that could be the difference between missing the playoffs or going for a super bowl! Personally I am excited to see every single one of those games and can only hope we do something about our O-line, backup qb and yes a running back. Charles wears down if he carries so much so we need someone to keep him fresh, I love TJ but he just isnt explosive enough or big enough to pound the ball when we need to.
i will definitely be at the jets and hopefully the pats
We need to get those division games. With a better division record, things will happen. We need to look a #2 seed next year.

As much as I Hate the Raiders I'm just sayin don't count them out just yet.....
:chiefs:
Glad I get to come back up there for a game..........met some pretty good folks up there last year
