USA Today predicts Chiefs at 4-12 for 2014
I could see it happening but really 6-8 wins seems pretty doable.
AFC West Broncos 12-4 (2): Could be better than 2013 team even if wins and offensive output dip. But schedule is murderous. Chargers 8-8: Last year's schedule allowed late-season charge. This year's could easily produce late-season slide. Chiefs 4-12: Tight salary cap meant crippling free agent defections, and they didn't sufficiently reload in draft. Raiders 3-13: Best thing influx of over-the-hill vets can do is change culture. Carr, Mack promise brighter days ahead. http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports...colts/9767615/ |

That avatar is just fantastic and I agree. The 2012 season the Chiefs caught absolutely no breaks and then caught every break during 2013. I fully expect our secondary to get eaten up. |

What if only one goes right? 11 games? I think 4-12 is a very realistic prediction with all the questions and the schedule. If everything goes right, it could go the other way. My guess, before camp and preseason, 10 losses. How things look in the preseason can change that.

if cap was really a problem we should have be trading and cutting high dollar vets on the downside and picking up younger guys. We could have been reworking contracts to free up money. Virtually no other NFL team gets 'trapped' by the salary like this. but we didn't, we did almost nothing If we win 10 games this year, Dorsey should give Reid half his salary. King John Dorsey taking after King Carl last year was nothing but gawd dam PR season and now we are rebuilding/retooling and cleaning the cap. **** John Dorsey

so you rather your team lose because you think the qb of your team, which helped lead your team to the playoffs, is bad when you want a qb that could be even more of a headache? lol

If you're looking at it from a non-fan perspective, the Chiefs have big question marks at: LT RT RG OL (in general... when 60 percent of your line is unknown, you're OL is generally a question mark) WR3 TE2 ILB FS And the Chiefs are underwhelming at the following positions that have known commodities at them: LG WR1 (below average WR1) WR2 (Below average WR2) CB1 CB2 NCB There are just a lot of potential holes. Odds are that the Chiefs will plug some of them with internal candidates.... but still have more holes than can be plugged just by working the roster from within. It's not like they had a killer draft with a bunch of picks that plugged holes with high picks, either.

i'm not dodging anything.
There is no point to your question. It's not about one player, it's about us losing talent and not adding it. 6 starters out, 1 starter and some scrubs in coach'em up Marty!!

No this team is better than last year by a little(if the o-line plays well).... the pass D should be drastically improved. Last year we got lucky a few games (philly) and the road will be tougher this year. If we're close to 8-8 or 9-7 it will be a super bowl type team.
The only team i fear is denver truthfully |

We were not an average team toward of the end last year. Had we had pass rush and average CB's we could have made a super bowl run LAST YEAR.
We essentially beat a very good SD team with our second string players. The offense was very scary at the end of last year. |

Exactly this. The Chiefs got worse over the off season. If someone doesn't see it, or doesn't want to, its on them. At the very least, not all players counted on to step up will be able to.

I didn't say they got better or worse. I simply asked which starters that left would people have matched the deals they got.
