There is a better way to get Luck.

[TimeForWasp]

There is a better way to get luck than tanking the season for it. We should try as hard as we can to win as many as we can. Do as well as we can with what we have, with the known fact that we lost our best players. What better way to go down than fighting and finding out what other hidden gems we may have on the existing team.

If Haley can figure out a way in the heat of battle with all this new pressure of the fans going completely south . That will prove more to me than being in the playoffs now with the given situation. What better way to find out if he is a good head coach? What better way to find out if Pioli is a good manager and see if he finds the right help and makes the rightmoves to help the team actually improve and be legitimate by the end of the year.

If we really want Luck as bad as you all are acting like, why not do it the right way.
Go after him in the draft. Whatever it takes. Blockbuster trade. If it's 3 1st round picks, so be it. If it's our entire draft next year, so be it. If you are willing to tank the year for him, why not. It's a much more respectable way to go about things. I would not be ashamed of that. I am ashamed of the way many fans are going about this.

The way things are going right now, I do kinda wish they would make the QB switch sooner rather than later. I would like to see Stanzi get the chance, but we are not at
the practices and it just may be that the people in the know think Palko is better. If they
do make changes, and I think they may, then they are serious about going for serious improvement.

Maybe there is one good thing about the suck for luck thing. I think it may very well, with the publicity it has gotten, I think it very well may have opened their eyes.

I want to see the Chiefs stay classy, including the fans.

Great idea!

I'll relay this idea to Pioli and Haley in my meeting this afternoon. Maybe they'll agree with you and decide to not lose so many games

[Okie_Apparition]

Pollard, Tank, Turk, Gunther, Thigpen, last legs LJ. All give you Gailey > Muir. But that's about it

[The Bad Guy]

Yeah, let's give up 3 first round picks instead of just losing 12 out of 14. That'll surely fix things around here.

[Sofa King]

Losing's cheaper. not only for the team in terms of picks, but for the fans as well. Noone wants to waste good money on a 5-11 team that trades away all it's draft picks on a gamble QB, even if that QB looks like the bestest qb evar!!1!!.

[FloridaMan88]

The amazing thing about the Chiefs is they have the ability to suck this bad without tanking... they have the superhuman ability to suck this bad while still actually trying to win.

It is the best of both worlds. No one can accuse the Chiefs of tanking, and yet they still have a great chance of going 0-16.

[Groves]

One of the many glaring flaws in purposefully losing in order to get Luck, is that the players would never buy in.

Matt Cassel will never purposefully suck worse than he does in order to more quickly lose his job.




Which is why he might have to be taken out by a sniper.

Palko does gives us a better chance of netting Luck.

For many of you, RedThat is your leader.

Great googly moogly. Did your parents have any children who aren't brain dead?

Piscitelli, McGraw, Jackson, McCluster/last legs Thomas Jones.

Hell, I'm sure there's plenty of guys around here who would argue that '08 Thipen > Cassel. But I don't want to get into that.

Let's not act like the (current) 2011 Chiefs are SOOO much more talented than the '08 version. There's a helluva lot of holes on this team. Although when the team is healthy, there's many more playmakers on the current roster than there were in '08, but losing Charles, Berry & even Moeaki has set this team back pretty far.

[Bewbies]

There is no way the team with the first pick is trading it this year. None.

[Hammock Parties]

So you want to trade three or four more wins for a huge glut of draft picks.

Sounds logical.

Right now we are one game out in the division. If later in the season we are totally out of it I may quietly kinda want us to lose a game or two if we are near last place still. When we are completely out of it , it would make sense, but now it does not. There are gonna be a couple other good qbs left to pick if we are near the bottom still. What if by then Stanzi does come in and impress?

So now you're relying on a 5th round QB to take the place of the #1 overall.

Come on man.
