At least two of these guys are going to run all over the Chiefs.

They're undeniably a better team than the Chiefs.

The Chargers are unquestionably the more talented team, but the better team is the one that is prepared to play when the games start.

If the Chiefs win out and and win the division, it will be because the Chargers, as they have every season since Norvelle took the helm, were not prepared to play when the games start.

Someone should inform the Chargers that the first half of the schedule counts every bit as much as the second half.

Your constant stroking of the Chargers is going on deaf ears over here. Don't you have anything better to do? With an average of 1000 post per month, apparently not.

You need to make a new video. I will say those are at least entertaining.

After we beat St. Louis, that's the part when you run away for at least a week.

Why do you make a point of referencing how the Jags had a key injury when the Chiefs played them, yet there's no such mention of the numerous injuries the Colts had when they played San Diego? Or the key injury to the Chiefs, for that matter.

I mean, it's almost like you're purposely trying to skew the argument in your favor.

And the Chargers haven't had a ridiculous rash of injuries?

Besides, who cares about injuries? The Chargers BEAT THE CRAP out of the Colts and Chiefs.

The Chiefs would have a legit win on their record if Garrard had actually started that game instead of Bouman. Too bad.

At 10-6, I could easily make an argument that we were a better team in 2005 than both Jacksonville (who finished 12-4) and the Bengals (11-5). Yet, they both made the playoffs, both got home games, and both got boatraced.

The bottom line is, who cares?

At this moment in time the Chiefs have 8 legitimate wins on their record.

When all is said and done the way you get the wins has absolutely nothing to do with the record. You are creating many enemies here. It might be time for you to go back to WPI and do your stuff there. Oops, I forgot.. they cleaned that place up and you can't do as you do her when posting there.

Really? What's this, then?

...you? Aren't you the one who made a point of bringing up the Garrard injury to downplay that win? I'm pretty sure it was you.

I think we can all agree there's a difference in an injury to a starting QB vs a tight end or a wide receiver.

The Chiefs blew out the Jags because Bouman couldn't do crap in the second half of that game.

The Chargers blew out the Chiefs because they were a legit better team.

Clear?

They're undeniably a better team than the Chiefs.

Considering that they've been drafting well for about 10 years, they damn well better be better than the Chiefs. Your idea that a team that is just getting past the rebuliding stage is a fraud because they're not better than a team that is playing of late like the best team in football?

Your standards are ridiculous. There were plenty on board with your idea that the Chiefs aren't going far in the playoffs and very likely lose out their first round. Myself included. If you want to sell to a bunch of homers that this team isn't going to be dangerous in the playoffs, fine. But you're trying to sell to more rational fans that this team isn't significantly improved? Isn't progressing significantly? Doesn't belong in the playoffs? Are only winning easy games (nevermind that these were exactly the games the team has been losing the past few years)?

That's why almost nobody is supporting you in your "jump off the ledge" comments. You've taken a reasonable position to an extreme that nobody stands behind.

Okay, so the Chiefs' win doesn't count because Bowman played like crap in the second half.

But the Chargers win counts in spite of Croyle playing like worse crap in the first AND second half.

Got it.
