Are there any bright spots?

That's outright ****ing bullshit.

Bull. ****ing. Shit.

The score was 31-14 when the Chiefs were on the 19 yard line. 31-17 is not "game over". Especially when they had another chance at the one, which would have put it at 31-24.

What a bunch of negative douchebaggery on this site.

I guess you can call me negative but I just don't see our offense (as it is) putting up 30 points this year. Perhaps when Croyle returns but I wouldn't count on it.

You should expect to be competitive against teams like Oakland and Atlanta when you have to try to pick out very small positives about the game against those teams, what is going to happen when they face a good team?

They are obviously much further behind this curve than even the most ardent person could have predicted. I don't think anyone expected to get abused in these 2 games...

I did expect to be competetive the last two weeks. I was (and still am) livid at the decision-making last week and I was impossibly vexed by our performance early today but at the 24-0 point I just accepted we were going to lose. My hopes for this year: Chiefs win at least one game (don't care who), Carl and Herm get fired (and replaced with improvements at their respective jobs) and some of the young guys display something which gives reason to hope for next year and beyond. Anything else (Gonzalez breaking a record, perhaps) will be a bonus.

Rep, I agree.

I could live with that.
