ESPN is talking about how bad the Chargers are and giving ZERO credit to the Chiefs, a team NO ONE gave a chance, a team that was UNANIMOUSLY picked to lose, a team Peter King predicted a 3-33 loss (only to put the Chargers at #11 in the power 15 today, and Denver at #12 but no Oakland or KC - who are both better than those two teams)...Bill Simmons for the last three weeks has had the Chiefs at #32 in the power rankings...

THESE GUYS DO THIS FOR A LIVING?

**NEWSFLASH**

THE CHIEFS MADE THE PLAYOFFS LAST YEAR, THEY STARTED 0-2 LAST YEAR, THEY WERE BEST WHEN DAMON WAS THEIR QB...THEY IMPROVED THEIR LT (MCINTOSH), THEY IMPROVED THEIR WR'S (BOWE - INSANE)...THEY IMPROVED THEIR DEFENSE (NO MORE BELL/MITCHELL REPLACED BY EDWARDS/HARRIS) POLLARD & PAGE OVER KNIGHT AND WESELY AND THEY FINALLY HAVE A DL ROTATION (ALLEN/HALI/BOONE/EDWARDS/TANK/WILKERSON/MCBRIDE) AND DJ IS PLAYING LIKE THE ALL-PRO HE SHOULD BE (SERIOUSLY, HE'S BEEN OFF THE HOOK)...

Why is this such a surprise to people?

It's insane.

#32 in the power rankings...

**** ESPN

The Chiefs are EASILY the best team in the AFC West...what is their weakness? Right now, it's slow starts, and that can be fixed...

You can't fix Denver's weak pass offense and rush defense, Oakland's QB situation (12 passes, 75 yards???), San Diego's coach...

and most of all...

THE CHIEFS HAVE 6 OF 8 AT ARROWHEAD, AND ALREADY HAVE 1 AFCW ROAD WIN...THAT'S HUGE...

The Chiefs are officially HEAVY favorites to win the West.

We know we can't compete with the Pats and Colts with Huard...maybe we can with Croyle....

I don't disagree with that at all. I really don't. But it is what it is... hopefully Croyle gets put into a successful situation, whenever he gets in.

But I still think there's a lot of good stuff going on. Allen, Hali, DJ... Bowe... I want Croyle to get experience, but there's no reason to piss and moan and throw the whole season down the river and not get some of these other young guys valuable experience too. With Bowe coming on, LJ running better, Kennison coming back... if Croyle gets to play, he's gonna be in a way, way better situation than he would've been in week 1 or 2.

The media always snubs this team.

I personally think it can and should be used as a motivator. Here's your silver lining...No pressure.

I think we're doing that at every position except the one that probably matters most. QB.

You want to dethrone the Pats or the Colts in December? You're going to need to play some damn fine defense and light them up on offense. With Croyle in there now, learning, getting in sync with the receivers, that possibility exists, however unlikely. It's simply not there with Huard. Most of the other 30 teams have tested the guys on their bench in regular season games. The Chiefs haven't.

Ridiculous...

Huard should get a BIG pat on the back for even making it through these first four games (and at 2-2)...

Croyle showed us what he can do in the preseason (nothing, horrible pocket presence, ridiculous throwing motion, backfooted heaves)...the dude had ONE GOOD DRIVE in the preseason...

HE WAS A 3RD ROUND PICK...

you guys are all acting like we have a top 5 pick QB sitting on our bench...Croyle and his 350,000 dollar salary isn't setting our franchise back ONE BIT by sitting on the bench...it's not like he's Philip Rivers and his 30 million dollar signing bonus wasting away behind Drew Brees...

There is no rush on Croyle...he was pretty much HANDED the starting job this preseason, and he played so miserable the coaching staff HAD to anoint Huard the starter...

so now it's time for all of you pessimistic half fans to DEAL WITH IT, and either be content with what we got, or go on over to PatriotsPlanet...

****. You guys all need to be kicked in the nuts.

It's because they know Huard is a backup quarterback pretending to be a starter.

Simplex3 · 10-01-2007, 03:04 PM

Huh. It's so much quieter and more sensible once you have Hootie on ignore.

Which was 1 drive better than Huard had in the preseason. Huard should be thanking his luck stars he was "hurt" and didn't play against New Orleans. He would've looked just as bad or worse than Croyle.

**Skip Towne** · 10-01-2007, 03:05 PM

Hey CHICKENHEAD, you said we would be 1-3 at this point. YOU WERE WRONG!!!!!

well our pretend starter is the best QB on our team right now, so deal with it...

after two years of ChiefsPlanet, I've come to only one conclusion...

WE HAVE A BUNCH OF UNINFORMED, IDIOT FANS THAT TOTALLY GET OFF ON ONE THING: BITCHING, ABOUT ANYTHING...

The only moment this board was TOTALLY optimistic was that BRIEF one hour stretch where we MIRACULOUSLY made the playoffs last year...

It was awesome.

But this is ****ing ridiculous.

All of you half fans should go crawl back in your holes and wait for that 0 TD, 4 INT performance from Huard when we're 8-4 so you can tell all of the logical fans how right you were and how good Croyle would've played and blah blah blah

SHUT THE **** UP

Uh huh uh huh...

YEAH! THIS IS FUN!

Never been happier about being wrong...

The coaching staff had the 1-3 excuse already built in so they could turn the reigns over to Croyle...

Now, it's officially Damon Huard all year long.

And that's good if you want to see the Chiefs win, like me (I know, I'm in the minority on that...)
