...but were people actually expecting more than this? I'm not trying to defend anyone in the organization, I'm just saying, I completely expected this. My expectations were:

1. Going to look real bad to begin the season
2. Hopefully begin to show improvement in the young players
3. Another year with a top 5 draft position

This would be followed by a mediocre season next year, with a mid level draft position, supplemented with a few free agency moves, then a playoff season.

No doubt, some of the play calling has been atrocious. But, we have to keep in ind, we're playing our third string QB in his first NFL start, on the road.

I don't know if I'm just not as upset because I no longer live in KC, or because my expectation were very different from the very angry posts I've been seeing. I mean, were people really expecting us to be competitive, let alone win this season? I was always under the impression this was the great draft class where we throw them into the fire so they are battle tested and savy a couple years down the line. What were your realistic expectations for the year?

From what I saw today, we won't win till at least next year.

Rebuilding doesn't have to equal looking like a bunch of fools week in and week out. This coaching staff is incompetent as well as the GM who assembled these blubbering idiots.

Throw aside the last 3 games and look at last year and the playoff loss in Indy.

Stop it.

The problem is much higher than the players and until that's addressed please stop giving people hope.

Damn straight I was expecting a last place finish and a top five draft pick.

I was also expecting 3 wins, which we won't even dream about.

I expected to see more from this team.
We've been outscored 61-22 by two other franchises that are also rebuilding.

I cannot sit back and pretend that what we've seen is a natural part of rebuilding. It isn't. This team has no direction.

12 in a row way to go SPERM. Seriously what game do you guys think you will get your first win? If it isn't this weekend it will be awhile.

I figure that we can win AT Oakland... and that is 8 games from now.

Rebuilding or being so young has nothing to do why they suck so bad. GB is just as young, and they are way better.

Donks are the third youngest team behind QUEEEFS and GB.

Bob Dole expected to get a lot more time to spend on the bike.

Set the DVR to record and took off at 10:30am. Got back to the house about 1:30 and watched the entire horrible event in 90 minutes. It's a lot less sickening that way.

That's good thinking Bob Dole. I'm going to experiment with not watching at all.

EXACTLY! What can't those that matter see this????
They are BAD because they have a BAD front office and a BAD HC. Pretty simple to see.

Well, let's look at the Packers starting defensive line:

Kampman is in his 7th season
Pickett is in his 8th season
Jolly is in his 3rd season
Jenkins is in his 5th season

Chiefs starting DL:

McBride in his 2nd year
Tlyer in his 2nd year
Dorsey in his 1st year
Hali in his 3rd year

That's hardly "as young as the Packers".

Packers backfield:

Woodson in his 11th season
Harris in his 11th season
Bigby in his 3rd season
Collins in his 4th season

Chiefs backfield:

Carr in his 1st year
Flowers in his 1st year
Pollard in his 3rd year
Page in his 3rd year

Again, not a good comparison

Packers OL:

Clifton in his 9th season
Colledge in his 3rd season
Spitz in his 3rd season
Moll in his 3rd season
Tauscher in his 9th season

Chiefs OL:

Albert in his 1st year
Waters in his 9th year
Niswanger in his 3rd year
Jones in his 5th year
McIntosh in his 9th year

Somewhat comparable except that everyone but Waters is playing a new position and our LT is a rookie.

I just don't see the Packer analogy holding up. We should be as good as the Packers in 2-3 years, not now. Provided, of course, we develop a QB.
