I never get these right. I'm going with 9-7 this year. Just good enough to keep Nancy Cassel next year and be out of the running for a QB in the draft.

10-6.

[The Mayor]

10 - 6

[scho63]

I'm going out on a limb at 10-6

I will preface this with two caveats; no major injuries (Cassel not inlcuded) and we will either be 10-6 or 6-10.

I don't see a mediocre season this year. We have all the tools except QBOTF and if somehow Cassel surpasses all expectations, then we can succeed.

[jspchief]

[Three7s]

3-13

Cassel has a 2-1 INT/TD ratio, Bowe holds out for the season, thus killing any potential passing attack. Charles stays healthy but fumbles more rapidly. The secondary is more vulnerable without Carr, and safety depth still manages to hurt the team drastically.

The one bright spot is the pass rush ability off the edges with Hali and Houston, who manage to rack up double-digit sacks each. Other than that, pretty pathetic in all other areas.

/doomandgloomscenario

[TLO]

I am going out on a limb and saying 11-5. I mean who knows really?

[the Talking Can]

we're stuck with Bowe, instead of Antonio Brown

but we have matt cassel

but, also, Bowe dropped a pass once

but, we have a franchise QB and model our franchise after the Steelers, so by the transitive property we are champ...

but we upgraded at CB, getting more penalties for less money

but pioli no longer has to spend time sending text messages to national sports writers explaining what a shit head haley is

but we have brain daball, who made matt moore look like matt moore, an average QB

but we also have too many good WRs, need to get rid of some

but we also have a failed HC, so he is the next Belichick

but we also have the patriot way

but we also have Ugoh, which means we can let Albert go

but we also have Brady Quinn, a huge upgrade over Palko even though he's a massive downgrade from Orton

but he's cheaper

but our fans don't have to worry about Clark's money at night

man...hard call, i go back and forth

8-8

or maybe 8-8

but at least Cassel will be here

[Molitoth]

Cassel will do just good enough to keep his job and make us miserable yet another year.

Guys like Hudson, Houston, Menzie, who I think will be a big part of defending TEs in that latter half of the season.

But when it comes down to it, late in close games against good teams, we'll lose, because we have a QB that handicaps this team.

Best case scenario, 7-9.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

One week away :whackit::whackit::whackit:

[BigRock]

I expect a top 15 defense, a top 10 run game, and Cassel to be thoroughly average. But with a strong run game, he'll have his occasional moments. With our schedule, this translates to 7-8 wins.

If the defense takes a step forward and is close to top 5 territory, I'd put it at 9 wins.

If the defense takes that step and Cassel has another 2010 in him, I'd go 10-11.

[Titty Meat]

8-8.

Then again, it doesn't matter what they do in the regular season. Anything less than a playoff win is an unsuccessful season at this point.

The thing is if this team had a QB it would be a super bowl contender.

Patriots are still great but that defense is nowhere near great.

Steelers O-line sucks and the defense is aging.

Baltimore is aging.

Colts suck

I predict they go 7-9. Shitty coaching, shitty QB, and if Houston or Hali miss anytime the defense is fucked.

There is a pretty strong chance that the Chiefs start the season 2-4, 1-5, or 0-6. Thankfully for you guys, the schedule does get a whole lot easier the second half of the year when you only have 5 games against playoff caliber teams in the last 10 weeks.

Meh, while we are only 1 point underdogs to Atl, I'm not going to come unglued if we lose that one. There's no way in hell we are going 1-5 or 0-6 though...Not sure what your definition of 'pretty strong odds' are but you have to be wrong....'Pretty strong chance' to me means over 50%, something like 60%.....

@Buf - W
@No - L

3-3 is probably the best case scenario to me. None of those games will be cakewalks. Buffalo is probably the easiest game you have but that is their home opener and they signed Mario Williams. Gonna be a tough team to beat under those circumstances.

[Quesadilla Joe]

And Denver could very easily start 1-4.

NE is the only game that I am going to mark down as a loss. Denver is going to be a very tough team to prepare for early in the year because there is no film for teams to look at to see what we like to do. Not just offensively with Manning, but defensively as well because we have Jack Del Rio now.


Three of Denver's first four games are at home as well.

[Ming the Merciless]

3-3 is probably the best case scenario to me.

Obviously, since you didn't even put it as a possibility in your original post....

3-3 is reasonable

0-6 is a crazy outlier

2-4 is pretty reasonable

4-2 is as reasonable as 2-4

6-0 is just as crazy as 0-6....

See a pattern?

Clarification:

Before the break, we lose to Baltimore and New Orleans, and maybe lose one of the others.
After the break, we lose to Pittsburgh, and the away games to San Diego and Denver.
I figure we'll upset one of these teams, but then drop one game that we should win elsewhere in the season.
10-6, maybe 11-5.

[Three7s]

3-3 is probably the best case scenario to me. None of those games will be cakewalks. Buffalo is probably the easiest game you have but that is their home opener and they signed Mario Williams. Gonna be a tough team to beat under those circumstances.
Not to mention, I don't think the Chiefs have ever beaten Buffalo in Buffalo.

[Coogs]

This is so hard to predict right now. Here is why.

If we just look at the 6 division games and use a hypothetical 14-3 score somewhat early in the game. If we happen to be on the front end of that score, all three of the teams would appear to have the fire power to rally behind thier QB throwing the ball. Rivers, Manning, and Palmer have all shown they are never out of a game no matter what the score.

Now if we happen to be on the back end of that score, we are on life support because the opponents can pin their ears back and get after Cassel. He has never proven good when under pressure.

When we step out of our division, the same case can be made in many of the games we are going to be playing.

It is going to be imperative we get ahead, as I don't see us as a come from behind team... going into training camp.

Copping out bigtime... anywhere from 6-10 to 10-6

[siberian khatru]

10-6

[milkman]

I really am not a fan of the manner in which Clathan delivers the message, but he's right.

This team will be playing against far superior QBs than the ones they faced last year, and we still have Matt Cassel.

Those QBs will make plays to win games.

Matt Cassel won't.

Matt Cassel won't.I don't think you will find anyone who is thinking clearly that will disagree with this assessment. But, lets hope that a healthy Charles, Moeaki and Berry will make us a better team than last years team that will offset at least some of the upgrade in QB of the other teams. . And maybe Poe will finally be that presense in the middle of the line problem we have been desperatly trying to resolve for years.

I think this team will be much better than last season which is why I believe we will be in a lot of close games.

But that's the point.

When it comes time to make plays, the opponents this season have the QB to make plays.

We'll lose a lot of close games because we don't.

I fully expect Matt Cassel to surpass his 2010 numbers because of teh talent around him, and protecting him.

But when the games are close, I fully expect to lose those games, because of Matt Cassel.

[Hammock Parties]

Like I revealed a few days ago:

Matt Cassel has never won a close game against a playoff team.

[mlyonsd]

9-7.

I'd have been a lot more optimistic if we would have kept Orton.

[Ming the Merciless]

No I think we all get what the morons are saying:

If we don't win 10 games, it is Matt Cassel's fault, but if we do - he gets no credit....

We shouldn't win 10 games because our schedule is tough, but if we do then he will get zero credit.

Our schedule is brutal but even though we SHOULDNT win 10 games, if we win less, it will be his fault....If we win more it will be in spite of him....

That about cover it?

[Hammock Parties]

If we win 10 games, Matt Cassel will probably deserve a lot of credit.

Happy?

[Slainte]

8-8. No playoffs.

6-10
or
5-11

Expect the worst, hope for the best.

[007]

3-3 is probably the best case scenario to me. None of those games will be cakewalks. Buffalo is probably the easiest game you have but that is their home opener and they signed Mario Williams. Gonna be a tough team to beat under those circumstances.
I would be thrilled with a 3-3 start. That means we shocked at least one team and beat another in a tight game.

[O.city]

Speaking of the Saints, what will their defense be this year?

[MMXcalibur]

10-6, I 'spose.

Yes, even with Matt Cassel.

Not just for the Chiefs, but it's extremely rare to sweep teams in your division.

Going with 9-7. Although, I've got a 6 game winning streak in there that I'm not feeling too confident about. I'd have to pick Carolina to blow up that win streak but I'm not sure what they did in the offseason. Their defense was awful.

[BigMeatballDave]

Not just for the Chiefs, but it's extremely rare to sweep teams in your division.Not really. It wasn't long ago we beat Oakland 9 straight.

We straight up OWNED them thru the 90s. They only won twice vs us.

[O.city]

IIRC, the Bills really started hott last year then cooled? I think they played over their heads against us, but they did kick our ass at home so I'm not gonna make excuses.

So are you of the thought that the Raiders improved this offseason?

[Hammock Parties]

Until they lose their defensive line, they are going to own us.

And they are going to have a pretty damn good offense this season.

We can't take advantage of their weakness.

We likely won't see Seymour blowing up Weiggman this year, thats for sure.


I'm not as high on Carson as you are, but I think it's all on McFadden.

[Hammock Parties]

I forgot they are getting him back.

Tough for us.

Carson sucks but he's better than Cassel and can chuck it downfield, and that's really all that matters.

[OnTheWarpath15]

So are you of the thought that the Raiders improved this offseason?

I think the offense will be pretty good this year - and if DMC stays healthy, watch the fuck out.

Everyone here laughs at Carson Palmer, but all the dude did was throw for nearly 3,000 yards in 9 games, coming into a team cold in the middle of the year.

Defensively, the front 4 is solid, but the back 7 are the weakness.

I'd think they'll be able to score enough to stay in most games.

Palmer was good last year. I just wonder about that offensive line.

McFadden just can't seem to stay healthy.

The question isn't even if the Raiders are good.

It's if they can win one game against us.

Probably. We match up poorly.

[BigMeatballDave]

What is with the fucking absolutes?

You aren't Mecca.

[mcaj22]

Richard Seymour will at least determine the outcome of one game in their favor. He has the last two years. We can't stop him.

[Hammock Parties]

Romeo Crennel seems to have busted the logic circuits in 75 percent of your brains.

It's pretty reasonable to suggest we go .500 in the division. Shit, it's more than reasonable. Kyle Orton isn't walking through that door.

A lot of good it did them. Palmer threw the ball over 40 times in four different games all losses. He racked up nearly half his yards in those four games averaging 326 yards per game. He had another game against the Broncos with 332 yards in a loss by 2 touchdowns. They were only 2-2 when he finished with a QB rating over 100. People say he got all his INTs early, but in his last four games he threw 8 picks.

Darren McFadden is a total brokedick as well. He is coming of a lisfranc injury which is no joke. He has hit only 10 starts once in his career, and has rushed for over 700 yards only once as well. He doesn't really have another established back on the team that can share carries with him. If he goes...

At the end of the day they are probably a game worse than us, or a game better.

And you could argue that the best player they've drafted in recent memory is a damn kicker.

[Hammock Parties]

You people, you would think we had actually earned more than one win over the Raiders in the last four years.

2008 - Embarrassed at Arrowhead, comedy of errors in Oakland

2009 - Embarrassed at Arrowhead, earned a legit win over them on the road.

2010 - Embarrassed at Arrowhead, got punked by them in Oakland.

2011 - Embarrassed at Arrowhead, Kyle Boller.

[durtyrute]

9-7

[Chronic]

Up front on d, they are as good as anyone.


Palmer was good last year. I just wonder about that offensive line.

McFadden just can't seem to stay healthy.

That Raiders OL was ranked 5th in the NFL, and they added FA guard Mike Briseil from the Texans who was a big part of Fosters runs and drafted Tony Bergstrom-

Stefen Weisnewski won rookie of the week as an OL, which is pretty hard to do

Both Veldheer and Barnes were ranked 4th in tackle tandems in productivity

Raiders were 4th in sacks allowed as an OL

Whats to wonder about?

[lcarus]

10-6, AFCW champs. There's no excuses, this team is stacked. We just gotta stay healthy.

I'm with you on this

[Chiefs Pantalones]

I'm with you on this

Heads better roll if we don't. No excuses.

[TEX]

10-6, AFCW champs. There's no excuses, this team is stacked. We just gotta stay healthy.

Not at the most important position it isn't. When you get to where the Chiefs are, the QB makes all the difference in the world. It will this year and they will end up 8-8. They have most everything BUT what they really need to be successful.

[HemiEd]

I never get these right. I'm going with 9-7 this year. Just good enough to keep Nancy Cassel next year and be out of the running for a QB in the draft.

I went with 9-7 as well. After Cassel starts out 1 and 6, Stanzi goes 8-1.

[BigRedChief]

I don't see how the Raiders win 7 games this year. Max.My 10 wins include us sweeping the Raiders.

I went with 9-7 but I'm starting to wonder if Balt is going to be as good as in recent years. There defense is getting pretty old at a few positions. Ray Ray and Reed and then they've lsot their best pass rusher haven't they? And he's old too. I guess they could become an offensive juggernaut.

and the last Cassel/Pioli supporter crawls out of the fall out shelter to ask what year it is....

[the Talking Can]

we're stuck with Bowe, instead of Antonio Brown

but we have matt cassel

but, also, Bowe dropped a pass once

but, we have a franchise QB and model our franchise after the Steelers, so by the transitive property we are champ...

but we upgraded at CB, getting more penalties for less money

but pioli no longer has to spend time sending text messages to national sports writers explaining what a shit head haley is

but we have brain daball, who made matt moore look like matt moore, an average QB

but we also have too many good WRs, need to get rid of some

but we also have a failed HC, so he is the next Belichick

but we also have the patriot way

but we also have Ugoh, which means we can let Albert go

but we also have Brady Quinn, a huge upgrade over Palko even though he's a massive downgrade from Orton

but he's cheaper

but our fans don't have to worry about Clark's money at night

man...hard call, i go back and forth

8-8

or maybe 8-8

but at least Cassel will be here

i'm a homer

[mcaj22]
