Flutie and the Dolts.......Could they take the West?

Ugly Duck · 08-14-2001, 05:52 PM

Hey.......its not too far-fetched when you think about it. They start off the season by playing Washington, Dallas, Cincinnati, Cleveland and New England. Don't laugh, but they could be 5-0 and leading the West by Week 6. They play Oakland tough. They play KC tough. If their thin O-line doesn't collapse, Flutie and an improved O might manage a near split of their remaining games giving them 10 or 11 wins. I'm not overlooking any AFC West team - too many times I've been unpleasantly surprised by the unexpected.

I am.......inhumane.

Where you been?

Mi_chief_fan · 08-14-2001, 05:56 PM

I think the Chargers will be much improved, but only if:

1. The o-line improves
2. They find a couple of decent WR's(Jeff Graham & Curtis Conway aren't the answers)
3. LaDainian Tomlinson gets into camp(i'm not sure if he's signed yet, is he?).

If Tomlinson doesn't show, who's gonna run the ball(besides Flutie)?

Damn, Duck - I don't think they'll win 6 games all year, much less 5 of their first 5.....

Somebody delete this topic soon. The Duck has been smoking the wacky weed again.

Ugly Duck · 08-14-2001, 05:57 PM

Hey mi.....ya freakin Chiefs fan....I'm still here. I get a bit slow in the offseason - but I'm warming up now. Opening day at Arrowhead...I've got to start early this season!

Brock · 08-14-2001, 06:01 PM

I doubt anybody thought the Ravens would win the Super Bowl. After that, I'll believe anything.

Ugly Duck · 08-14-2001, 06:11 PM

Think about it.....they were better than their 1-15 record last year. A lot of those games were close losses. Even with the vision of Ryan Leaf spectre churning in thier guts they were close in many losses. Flutie is the Anti-Leaf.....he can make make those close losses close victories. Add to that a cream-puff schedule outside of their A-West rivals. Mix in the top pick in the draft. I ain't smoking duckweed. Really.

I am....inhumane.

HC_Chief · 08-14-2001, 06:20 PM

You are definitely smoking something dude ;)

A geriatric midgie mullet plus a good, but aging D, does not equate to a good team! Sure, midgie mullet is a vast improvement over Leaf/Harbaugh/Moreno/etc., but he's
1) Old
2) A midget
3) Sporting a mullet for gawd's sake!

San Diego will finish no better than .500

:D

philfree · 08-14-2001, 06:23 PM

I doubt the'll win the West but they could sweep the Raiders!

PhilFree :cool:

**MahiMike** · 08-14-2001, 06:23 PM

Flutie's a gamer. I was wanting to sign him as a backup. But his line sucks, the defense is too old, he has no receivers and his RB hasn't even signed yet.

Even an easy schedule can't help these guys. They'll be in their proverbial cellar...

midgiemullet: Midgiemullets have the highest MPSI (mulletude per square inch) rating within their species (mulleticuscamarocus). Irish folklore has it that if you caress the midgiemullet 3 times, you will be blessed with a case and a half of Pabst Blue Ribbon on your doorstep within the next 48 hours. Extra points for the mustache, gold chain, and the revealing of the chest.

Screw Flutie. Screw the Chargers. I suggest you Raider types WORRY ABOUT US. :mad:

I think this being-owned-by-the-Raiders-shit went out the door with the Stooges and Gunther.

BTW, welcome back, Duck.... :D

Hoover · 08-14-2001, 06:34 PM

I don't think so. Riley is not a Head Coach in the NFL. I think they might get 6 or 7 wins. But if Flutie goes down I think they will only get 3-4 wins this year. I think their front office is getting this team ready for Norm for next year.

Ugly Duck · 08-14-2001, 06:40 PM

FFrrazzod! This opener is way important to us Raider fanz. You guys are the only AFC West team with a winning record against Oakland. This opening day victory will even the series. Then the upcoming victory against the Devil's Red in Oaktown will put us back on top.

The 90's are over! The 90's are over!

HC_Chief · 08-14-2001, 06:44 PM

So is Gun & the Three Stooges' reign!

KC has a better QB, RB, a VASTLY improved coaching staff, and is no longer burdened by Chester McFatass. We have the edge because you've never played against this O - our DC hasn't lost a game -v- Oakland since CLinton's first term in office, and we'll be riding a wave of emotion.

KC will steamroll the faiduhz... bank on it! :D
