No!
This is not a trap game.
It could be a trap game under different circumstances. If the Chiefs were a consistent winner over the last few years and thought they could win the game just by showing up, it could be a trap game. But they are not.
If the Giants were a traditionally weak team that usually finishes the season at or near the bottom of their division, it could be a trap game. But they are not.
If Andy Reid had not coached in the NFC East for over a dozen years, facing the Giants twice a year and was not very familiar with them, it could be a trap game. But he has.
If the game was being played in New Jersey and the Chiefs had to deal with a hostile environment, instead of playing in front of a rabidly enthusiastic crowd at Arrowhead, it could be a trap game. But it isn't.
There is no doubt in my mind that Reid will have the Chiefs very prepared for this game. Because of years of mediocrity and on the heels of a 2-14 season, the Chiefs are on a mission to prove they are a good team and gain the respect of the nation. They have the superior talent, home field advantage, a great coach and the winningest QB in the NFL over the last 3 seaons. They will be ready for the Giants.
I'm not guaranteeing a Chiefs victory. Anything can happen and there will probably be some nail-biting moments, but I have a lot of faith in our Chiefs.
They should win.
