NFL Forbids Chiefs From Creating Their Own Schedule Again Next Season | The Onion - America's Finest News Source
NEW YORK—Assuring reporters that the team will soon be “back on a level playing field,” NFL commissioner Roger Goodell announced Tuesday that the currently undefeated Kansas City Chiefs will not be permitted to create their own schedule again next season. “Though we allowed them to make these decisions this time around, the Kansas City Chiefs will not be able to handpick which NFC and AFC divisions they’re matched up against next year,” said Goodell, adding that in order to maintain parity across both conferences, the Chiefs will not be authorized to once again dictate which games they play at home or the timing of their bye week. “We felt it wasn’t in the best interests of the league to invite Kansas City’s upper management back to the NFL front office next April to choose their opponents, the order in which they play those opponents, each week’s kickoff time, and the location of every game. Letting the Chiefs select the absolute easiest schedule possible ultimately reflects poorly on the NFL as a whole, and was clearly an abuse of the privilege.” Goodell also noted that the league may allow the Jacksonville Jaguars to choose their schedule next season, but admitted to reporters “it probably won’t make a difference anyway.”

I disagree......
These other "inferior" teams are losing to weaker opponents and the Chiefs keep finding ways to be these terrible teams. We certainly aren't the prettiest 9-0 team but we are beating teams that we SHOULD beat.
This is something the Chiefs haven't done in a long time.....
Take the bye week, get healed up a little, get rested......then it's time too finish the season strong. Even is we go 3-4 the rest of the year, then it is still a 12-4 season and we make the playoffs. I think we will do better than 3-4. I'm looking at 4-3.
CHIEFS!!!!!!

CHIEFS!!!!!!
In the Superbowl era there has been 19 teams that have started their season off going 9-0.
I can live with being called a fan of the "worst 9-0 team ever". lol

Lmao they looked pathetic against buffalo
If Tuel had any field vision and didn't just follow plays by design he had wide open Stevie Johnson for a touchdown. Instead Sean Smith who got burned gets the ball thrown at his chest.
And then that fumble wow.
If you're actually crediting your team's play over the Bills miscues you don't know dick about football. Because the Bills beat themselves, and both Jackson and Spiller made your run defence look pathetic.
