Chiefs got better times ahead in the next 3 seasons???

[Chief Roundup]

http://espn.go.com/blog/kansas-city-...-three-seasons


In their three seasons under coach Andy Reid, the Kansas City Chiefs haven’t won a division title, but they’ve been an annual playoff contender, reaching the postseason twice as a wild-card entrant. They haven’t been able to advance in the postseason beyond the divisional round.

This interesting post suggests that for the foreseeable future, the next three seasons, the Chiefs are headed for more of the same.

ESPN ranked the prospects for each of the NFL’s 32 teams over the 2016, 2017 and 2018 seasons based on several factors, including the quality of the overall roster, quarterback, coaching, the draft, and the front office. The Chiefs are a respectable 11th, their strength according to this ranking being Reid’s coaching ability.

Eleventh doesn’t sound bad, but it doesn’t represent an improvement over what the Chiefs have been over the past three seasons. In the future rankings, the Chiefs are second in the AFC West behind the No. 9 Denver Broncos and sixth overall in the AFC.

That should sound familiar. The Chiefs have finished second to the Broncos in their division in each of Reid’s three seasons. They’ve been the fifth seed in the playoffs in each of their two postseason appearances.

Those Chiefs fans with long memories may not think of this pattern as being stuck in a rut. The Chiefs, after all, won no more than four games in four of the six seasons previous to Reid’s arrival, so these are prosperous times for Kansas City’s NFL team, relatively speaking.

Ultimately, though, they haven’t been fulfilling. And if the Chiefs follow up in the next three seasons with more of the same, even the most patient of their fans might come to think Kansas City was definitely stuck in a rut with Andy Reid as the head coach.

Oh, it will happen, but the top players have to somehow stay healthy when needed most. This is what has been the true season killers.

It would be successful season if we win the division and get two playoff wins. There is a chance that we can make it to the AFCCG with those same two wins and beyond.

I think Tamba can still be a good pass rusher for the first 2 or 3 months. He had 6.5 sacks up until the end of November and then he just fell off.

We need Ford to do something this year for sure. No more development from him. Sink or swim.

I agree with O.City here. The Chiefs have been completely ****ed when they've had injury problems at OLB. 2013 problems and no pressure on Brady last year.
If the pass rush struggles week 1, we could lose to Rivers in the opener.

Of course it would....that would be a step forward.

No one seriously would argue winning 2 playoff games would be a failure of a season for this team...

Stop.

There isnt a damn thing wrong with pointing out flaws or potential weaknesses and discussing them in-depth, but you know how some people were acting... it was sheer, unrelenting trollery in

Every.

Single.

Thread.

And I say that as someone who, for some strange reason, kinda likes some of the usual suspects and found it perfectly easy enough to just scroll right past them when I didnt wanna hear their next diatribe

But at the same time, our Council of Elders decided that sometimes enough is enough... and I can respect that decision

[BossChief]

It's hard to say how KC is gonna do in the next 3 years.

We don't know if Houston will be the same.
We don't know if Berry will stick around and if he doesn't how that effects Houston. They are best friends.
We don't know if Dee Ford will step his game up
We don't know if any of our ILBs with potential will step up and DJ is gonna hit a wall.
We don't know how any of these young corners across from Peters are gonna do.
We don't know if Alex Smith is maxed out
We don't know if Conley/Wilson are going to step up

I could go on for hours.

This is contradictory.

I dont respect banning people for 'trolling' exactly and precisely BECAUSE it is very easy to ignore and scroll past them.

I also think ...actually I KNOW that one person can view a post as trolling and another as humor or not trolling....there are people who I feel are comeplete trolls and douches that others wouldnt. So when people get banned its ALWAYS personal and arbitrary.

What I respect is everyone's right to decide for themselves and scroll, like you find it easy to do. You find it easy because it IS easy. Only a moron 'cuck' imbecile with a micropenis would find it difficult to not care what someone said...on the internet....about football....

So this is what you are, since you created a thread about "leaving CP forever! boo hoo!" ... okay then.

There definitely are lots of question marks in the near future. This team still has work to be done in lots of areas over the next couple of years to continue to be in effective in the post season.

The Council of Elders has Spoken... Obey

Predicting the next three years isn't just folly, it's outright dumb.

There are a myriad of things that could either go right or wrong for the Chiefs, not to mention their division rivals.

It's an exercise in futility.
