A Meaningless Rant
Did you hear it on Monday? On Tuesday?
The Chiefs have no chance. Why? Because everyone knows that San Diego always controls their own destiny. We're only 8-4 because the Chargers have allowed it...in their benevolence they have allowed the peasants to rise and thump their chests for awhile. But now, they said, the Chargers are going to rouse us and the rest of the division from our pleasant dreams and remind us that they are still omnipotent and still owners of the AFC West. Maybe, they said, the feeble Chiefs could come in and make a respectable showing. Perhaps we could run out the clock and lose 24-21, saving face as we witness the great Philip Rivers take the Chargers back off the brink and into the glory of Shank Kaeding's postseason heroics. And then Matt Cassel's appendix had to come out. What had been difficult was now impossible. The Chiefs, walking into a game that the Chargers "have to win", will now be lead by Brodie Croyle, whose only victories have come in his bedroom. Take a look at what the experts say now: http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-networ...without-Cassel You know what I say? Screw all of them. You know who has to win this game? WE have to win this game. Because we have to go into that toilet bowl and scrub our division of the Chargers' dominance. Because we have to stay in contention to get a first round bye. Do you hear them, Brodie? They say you can't do it. They say you are weak and terrible. Do you hear them, Chiefs? They say the Chargers are going to run the table. You are just honored to be in their presence so late in the season. I say screw all that noise. You are 8-4 and they are 6-6 because you are BETTER than they are. So go into that cesspool and prove it. Tear their hearts through their throats and stake it on the 50 yard line with a flaming spear. Make the Chargers wish the Raiders were back in town. Drive the masses to chant for the pockmarked head of Norvelle in the 3rd quarter. Tomorrow could represent the tightening of the division. Or you could separate yourselves and get into new echelons of football. Get 'em. |

This game isn't just important for the chiefs, it is enormous for Croyle. If he ever wants to have a long career in the NFL, he's got to shine this weekend.
Imagine if Croyle shocks the world and looks great for one weekend in San Diego to lead the chiefs to victory? Unlikely I know, but what if? There's no controversy here because Cassel's our guy at this point, but some team somewhere out there would be desperate enough for a QB in the offseason that we could get a nice draft pick out of him. This game isn't just for the playoffs, we could be playing for a nice 2nd or 3rd round pick too.

It's time to put our foot on the neck of the bolts. Let's get this done and look forward to some football in January.

I think the OP is channeling his inner Knute Rockney or Vince Lombardi today.

Here's another reason why this game is important.
What would Whitlock say? Derrick Johnson/Jamaal Charles locked up, Chiefs win in San Diego and take AFC West (basically). Egoli for the win! |
