Would be cool to be the 18th or 19th best team.

I really don't know what to think about the blowouts.



In my humble opinion, I tend to put that more on not being prepared, which is on the coaching staff. Not just Haley, but the entire coaching staff. That and being a little shellshocked.


Combine that with the injuries to a few of our better players and last year happens. I think it's plausible to think that if Charles is healthy we have a much better shot at winning the division. But, like stated before, injuries happen. Not usually to arguably your best offensive and defensive players, but they do happen.

I'm just hoping for an exciting year in which we make the playoffs and win a game.

We need to create come kind of auto-correct for "winning the division".

Sad that people are content with that, and use being a FG away from winning a bad division as some sort of evidence that this team is any good.

I don't look at past results...I look at the talent we have, those coming back from the injuries, and the potential to have a Top 10 defense.

Maybe I'm naive...oh well. I'm just damn excited about this team and this season. For the first time in a long time, I feel good about heading into a new season.

Think this team is easily top 15 talent wise but I think everybody in the division except the Chargers should be much better. I don't see how Oakland is possibly the 23rd beat team. They will be better than that

We haven't won a playoff game in forever and haven't exactly been a powerhouse lately.


Of course I'd like to see them win a SB, but I'm just wanting to see baby steps.

Yeah no one wants to mention that if someone hadn't had the "Worst day ever" we would have lost to SD and that we almost knocked the Colts out of the Suck for Luck derby.

New Coach, lost a few players etc... it's a fair ranking in my mind....

Don't think this will be anything close to the Raiders year... We had a fire sale and brought in a few "football players"

I believe football is 80% coaching and 20% player and I have no idea about this coach.

:D

Pretty much that way in the NFL every year.


There is a fine line between winning a losing, for the most part.

Sure, I see QB's fumble setting up the game-winning chip shot FG every week.

Yeah, I know.

Not that specifically, but would you not agree that it is generally 1 or 2 plays per game that end up making the difference?

Would you rather go to the SB and lose like my beloved Raiders did in 02 or would you rather not go at all?

I'm the same way. I'm naive and a sucker. But I love my Chiefs. I know we probably won't do shit with Cassel at QB but I'm excited as nipples for the season. I am for every season.
