Gadzooks is a good dude. He just needs to realize his starting OLB are shit, but so is our secondary.

I guess we will see.

Also Gaybooks....I'm pretty sure that you don't get to sit at the big table with the men til your team has a Super Bowl win.....

She maybe an alright person (debatable), but she's still a delusional Chokers fan. Wouldn't be so bad if she didn't talk out of both sides of her mouth , but that's typical Chokers fans. Except they're usually doing something else out of both sides o their mouth! She likes to give half facts, and not give credit where it's due!

I think the bottom is going to fall out in Kansas City. There is just no way we lose the amount of talent we did and succeed. That's now how football works.

I bet we go 6-10. The more I look at our roster, the less I like it.

I think San Diego challenges Denver for the AFCW this year, but Denver's just got too many big guns.

I agree with the prediction just not that we lost a ton of talent. Albert-yes- but he was coming off a year of being hurt-is he worth that massive contract?? Sucks we couldn't have traded him though. The rest signed for highest market value based on their talent and production.

I mean TJack never made an impact here. Never. Name one game you can say he dominated it- and getting 1 and half sacks in one game-was mostly cleanup work. Was he worth that contract? Hell no-but the media loves talking about how we lost so much talent with him.

We replaced those players with similar talent for a fraction of the cost and shed some big salaries. Great moves since we couldn't win with them.

I think we are waiting for next year and hoping some of our recent draft picks blossom. More draft picks and a better Cap situation according to some on here.

Only loss that hurt us was Albert. We cut Lewis and Dunta Robinson which automatically makes our defense better.

I don't trust our secondary or offensive line/qb. We also haven't beaten a winning team since the 2011 season (I didn't count the Eagles because Foles didn't play).

I think we will go 8-8.

I would probably pick this or a bit higher if Andy would let the team be what it is (a running team with some great talent at RB) instead of what he wants it to be (Greatest show on turf). Yes Andy loves to pass, pass, pass- but with a lack of talent at TE, O line and WR- we get what we had last year- a team that can't move the ball. Some of the drives for Offense barely took a minute off the clock-3 and out-and the D was back in there.

Yes grind it out football is old school- but that is what the chiefs are- a stout D. and a good running game.

As it stands now with this team-I don't see how our Offense can match up to the teams we have to play. We just don't have the talent on the Offensive side of the ball.

6-10

You cry when Hali and Houston can't play, yet you don't consider the disadvantages of your opponents.

Do you know the Chiefs 3rd string OLBs? **** no. What are the chances of that happening?

You are a hypocritical homer and, I'm afraid, there is no hope for you.

You're a raging homer if you think Larry English is worth two shits

I see us between 6-10 and 8-8.

Our only shot is if our defense truly develops into a top 3 defense.

Schedule is simply too tough.

Relying on our draft picks was Dorsey's plan day 1. It's scary, but boy if most of those guys turn out, then we're in business.

Packers fans said the same things about Ted Thompson that we're now saying about Dorsey.

Then the strategy actually paid off.

Yup. We're going to find out just how good Dorsey is this year. I was impressed with Knile Davis and Marcus Cooper. Sure hope most of these other guys show that kind of promise.

Yeah, all we can do at this point is hope we have the same fortunes. Still really too early to tell. Dorsey had a good track record with finding good players for GB to draft. I'm hoping some from last year step up this year.

He's actually pretty decent at putting pressure on the QB when he's healthy. Unfortunately, that's been pretty rare. Most teams wouldn't mind having him in their OLB rotation.

BTW - I don't think Freeney and Ingram are anywhere near as good as Hali and Houston but the defense is designed to rotate the Top 4 OLBs based on the situation. We lost all 4 at different points in the season.

We had a 6th round rookie start 6 games.

We had a 3rd year UDFA from Carolina start 3 games.

If you don't think that hurt the Chargers defense last season your kidding yourself.

A healthy group, with the addition of Attaochu, should improve the pass rush quite a bit.

I wonder how well the Chiefs would do in a similar situation? (Even Zombo is out!)

We haven't even discussed how the Chargers lost their top 2 receivers for the majority of the season. How are the Chiefs WRs lookin'? What would happen if you lost Bowe and Avery? I guess Jenkins would become the next Keenan Allen?...

Like I said: Our defense relies on our pass rush. If we don't have Houston and Hali (healthy) then we aren't stopping anyone.

Case in point, the first time SD played KC.
