Another possible reason to be optimistic about next year and improving...
 

Another reason to be optimistic about next year is:

I think Kelce could make a sizeable contribution to the offense- a position that is rather significant in Reid's offense, and Smith's favorite target is the TE.

We had squat at that position all year due to a rash of injuries. Check out his highlights.

He's got great size at 6'6 260lbs.

What's more encouraging is he actually has some deceptive speed, and does a tremendous job in gaining additional yards after 1st contact. Seems to have a good low center of gravity, can often shed arm tackles, and doesn't go down easily.

It's already been mentioned during camp that he has very good hands, and doesn't have a history of the dropsies. Also, seems to work well in space and has good recognition of field location in relation to the defense.

Kelce highlights:




Post to follow up will be re: Sanders Cummings: An answer for the abortion that is (was) Kendrick Lewis...

Possibly but right now he seems Moeiaki part 2

Bob Sutton.

I think its a given the team should improve.

Improving the record is another deal entirely. We have a brutal schedule next year.

Well... in his short career with the Chiefs, he had a case of the dropsies. I hope that's just early nerves.

This.

The team will get better, no doubt, but our record probably won't reflect it.

I would rather go 10-6 while beating quality teams then go 12-4 (our real record this year) beating up on garbage.

Tougher schedule. Hopefully we don't play teams with their starting QB out.

We could lose Albert, McCluster, and maybe our Guard (if we decide not to re-sign both Schwartz and Asamoah) and think we'll still end up a better team talent wise next year... even if we don't do a damn thing in free agency.

ROFL

Absolutely.

Kendrick Lewis will be replaced.

No joke.

Dorsey will undoubtedly bring in help as well.

Lets hope so. He couldn't catch a cold during the preseason. Pray he stays healthy.

Based on what? One injury.

Jesus.

Until the week you are going to play a team, you have no idea how brutal or easy a schedule is.

Everyone thought Houston and Atlanta were playoff teams last off-season.
