Jacksonville really wasn't close. They got hot in the last 3 minutes of a game against a team that had stopped playing. Cassell hit a lucky ass throw compared to what he'd done the rest of the day to Chris Chambers and then Succoup aimed for the pork chop on the Charlie Brown special onside kick. They looked like dog shit all day long.
I love the Chiefs. I care about the games every Sunday regardless of their record. I've been optimistic about them and I will continue to be. But let's face it, the fun in watching a rebuild is seeing the weekly progress on the field. Where's it at?
