Oakland seems like the only real threat to the Chiefs, which was hard to write. It is doing all the right things in terms of signing players, and it has a good quarterback in Derek Carr with a talented defense. If the Chiefs are to win the AFC West, Oakland, not Denver, might be the team to go through.

When it comes to winning Super Bowl 51, that will be difficult. The Chiefs were able to do the seemingly impossible by coming back from 1-5 to win 10 in a row and their first playoff game in two decades. The pieces are certainly in place for this team to go far, but do they have all the pieces needed to win? Maybe.

The competition every year in the NFL only seems to get better. You have teams like New England whoalways win in double digits and the Pittsburgh Steelers who will have their All-Pro running Le’Veon Bell back and Antonio Brown dominating on the outside.

The Chiefs are set to make a nice run in 2016 with the players they have on their team and the talent on both sides of the ball.

What do you think, Addicts? Is MJD right? Will they go to the Super Bowl this year? What do you think, let us know in the comments.

Thanks for reading.

GO CHIEFS!!!
