everyone is so wrong about Peyton Manning all the time it's sickening. I hate it. I'm a Chiefs fan. But at least I'm realistic about Peyton Manning and what he means to our division, to our head coaching search, and to our short term happiness as Chiefs fans.
At least I'm smart enough to realize we're in wild card or nothing mode for the next 3 years minimum

okay, sure. I just think that a team that really plays some fast defense neutralizes Manning and the rest of Denver's roster just doesn't match up to the depth of, say, a Seattle, Atlanta, or even Houston.
Maybe I'm wrong - they sure are peaking at the right time, and winning the games they needed to win at the time to win them (Nov & Dec) but I don't see Manning as having the Superman cape under his jersey like everyone else. That team is beatable - give the Chiefs a real QB, some real coaching, the other half of a secondary, and some offensive compliments to Bowe and JC...the Chiefs can certainly battle Den for supremacy in the division. Oak and SD are shit. Plus, we have the NFC East next year - no cakewalk. It will be hard for the Chiefs to have a winning record next year, no matter what, and Den will have a hard time duplicating their record this year, though they could probably win this division easily at 11-5 or 10-5 (much like KC in 2010) or even 9-7.
Point is...Chiefs will probably have a decent draft position in 2014 as well. It's possible, if everything goes right (Pioli is gone, Reid or Chip Kelly comes here, draft the right QB, good sound drafts and FA signings, etc.) the Chiefs can totally battle the Broncos for division supremecy in a year or two, much as theydid during Elway's prime in the 90's.
