Rivers struggled and threw for 300 yards and 2 touchdowns.

a) Rivers is a much better QB.
b) San Diego's D didn't let receivers go completely uncovered - Gates in the first quarter, TD pass and the long ball that Berry screwed up. You probably have about 100 yards passing there.

Please show me any person on this board who actually posts opinions and hasn't been wrong.

Now, the problem is that some guys admit they were wrong, and some guys continue to make excuses for why they look wrong at the moment.

The reality is that we are fans. We all see things differently, and that allows us to be right about something that everyone else misses occasionally and we hold onto that, and think we have some 'great' insight.

But, their credibility is about the same as everyone else's on here. Of course, they still act like they know more than everyone else.... but that is more of a character flaw than anything else.

Monday Night Football Schedule for the Drafturbators (all times EST)

7:00 Turn on computer, turn on Jets game. Crack knuckles in preparation of typing in all the great things Sanchez does in the game.
7:01-10:15 Sit in silence. Post nothing in the Jets/Ravens thread.
10:16 p.m. Say a quick prayer that Cassel plays as bad as Sanchez so you can save some face.
10:20 "Cassel's first pass sucked ass".
10:21-1:15 a.m Sit in frustration as KC hangs to a lead. Occasional posts about Cassel still sucking, although having the lead takes away from some game enjoyment. Oh, if only Matt could take a sack and fumble the ball. Drat, they won.
1:16 a.m. porn search.
1:30 a.m.- 3:00 a.m. argue with Hootie that he can't just enjoy the win.

The other part here is that the Chiefs didn't need to push it downfield. They had a lead in a monsoon, at home, on Monday Night with a defense that was playing well and special teams that were outstanding.

The second "drop" was a well thrown, well placed ball that bowe simply could not plant his feet into the wet turf in order to adjust to the ball, and all he could do was throw his arms back in a attempt to swipe the ball out of the air.

If he had been able to make that catch, it would have been a spectacular catch, given the conditions.

Well, I LOVED the 2010 draft, even though I realized the Chiefs could have gone in a different direction and still would have come up with playmakers and contributors.

Arenas, McCluster and Moeaki all made great contributions to this evening's win. Eric Berry had probably his toughest task all year in his very first professional start and while he shit the bed a few times, he quickly recovered.

It's a great start to the season and quite frankly, more impressive than I had expected.

I completely disagree. Good teams, teams that win championships, go for the throat. They don't sit on a lead, go 3 and out and place their D in bad situations again and again. They needed to push the chains.

Cassel did not play well, bottom line, he also didn't play that bad all things considered. He needs to play better for KC to reach their potential.

the d would have given up a whole lot less if they weren't on the damn field the whole game. i'm pumped bout the win, but our QB and playcalling pretty much sucked from beginning to end.
