Really? The Chiefs are a 9-7 team that needed 9 games to go their way in the last two weeks and win their remaining two to get into the playoffs. The Colts had the division won in week 12. Indy should be a double digit favorite in this game. Even though they've been a bit off the past few weeks they're at home where they seldom lose against an inferior opponent.

Well the Chiefs have struggled against little know QB's that they don't have a book on. Especially guys who have some mobility. Derek Anderson, Quinn whoever he is for Jacksonville, and Seneca Wallace racked up yards against the Chiefs. But pocket passers who the Chiefs had a book on were generally kept in check. Also a few years back Herm came up with a pretty good game plan to kill the Colts, mind you the weather helped him out a bit. Manning is the best there is and his receivers are top notch so this should be interesting. If the Chiefs can keep them out of the end zone early and get their running game going and get a coulple big plays on special teams than they have a shot. If they don't get that, it's another 45-10 Indy win agains a Wild Card team.
I hate the Colts, hate Irsay, and hate them for beating the Chiefs at home in 2 of the Chiefs last 3 playoff games. I'd hate Manning and Harrison too, but they're so damn good you have to respect their ability. KC owes them some big time pay back. But I don't see it coming this year. Than again I figured the Chiefs to go 3-13 after week two, hopefully I'm wrong again.
