Freeney was actually looking really good prior to his injury. Teo had a stronger 2nd half of the season after a poor start.

Don't forget about Melvin Ingram either.

They have some decent young talent. It'd be a mistake to simply dismiss them as talentless.

Those fans have just as good at naming the Chiefs' front 7 as they do another team's. In fact I'd argue it's near the top of the league in terms of recognizable front 7s. Four of our front 7 were Pro Bowl selections.

I will have to disagree with you about Freeney looking "really good"
He looked good in TC but only had what half a sack before he got hurt?

Melvin Ingram has 2 sacks in 2 years

Teo was better in the second half but that is not saying much because he was a joke in the first. Even if the second half he didn't look like a three down NFL starter.

I am not saying they don't have talent, but right now outside of Butler and Luiget there are a whole lot of ?s on that front seven

Wait, What?!? All I've said is most teams would like him in their rotation if healthy, (and I stated that he rarely was).

You, plainly, posted my thoughts on the matter when you mentioned Jeremiah Attaochu.

A.J. had 3 consecutive years of 1st round busts WR "Buster" Davis (2007-30th). CB Antoine Cason (2008-27th) and OLB English (2009-16th). Davis and English were both injury nightmares, (Cason just kinda sucks and was allowed to walk in F.A.).

The bottom line is the Chargers front 7 should be a lot better next year if healthy. I'm not delusional enough to think their pass rush will be as vaunted as the Chiefs, but, if they were to field a healthy group, they'll be far more competitive than last year.

BTW - Does it mean I have "Homer Denial Syndrome" if I'm rocking back and forth in the fetal position as I type this post?

Everyone in the league knows who our NT, and two rush backers are.
Probably our rookie rush backer too. Oh, and then there's DJ.

4 pro bowlers. And a 1st rounder.
I'd say we rank up there pretty high in terms of notoriety.

It means you cackle all the time about Chiefs fans being homers on the most skeptical Chiefs fan message board on the internet.

All of that is a deflection away from what you really believe about the Chargers-- that they're always underrated and awesome and that even when they underachieve, they're the best team in the history of the NFL that wasn't successful enough.

Dee Ford is a late first rounder; I think he's in the same category. I'm sure once you named them then the people would recognize the name..

But I think the most you would get off the top is Houston, Hali, and DJ.

Your opinion of the fans on this board is skewed by the fact that you're the leader of the skeptics. There're plenty of members who spew bullshit out of their ass regarding both the Chiefs and the Chargers.

The level of ignorance is often disturbing.

I'm sure you know people in your life where you have a reasonable discussion and they seem to agree with your opinion, yet they turn around and take actions that are the opposite of what you discussed.

I'm not sure if these instances are a result of low IQ, immense conditioning or both.

Either way, I tend to pipe up in the Football threads when I see a post saying "Phyllis Rivers is goin back down to the bottom 3rd of QBs, He's a whiny bitch. Woot!"

While you may not post such asinine opinions, many of your brethren do. I feel it's my responsibility to attempt to dispel their idiotic notions.

My opinion of the Chargers is no where near your analysis as I have no contradictions related to them being both underrated and underachieving. They are the bane of my existence as I'm sure the Chiefs are for you.

The all-pros Berry, Houston (3rd round), and Poe (panned by almost all NFL critics) would like a word with you, and when they're done our all pro RB that we're paying a measly 5ish mill a year would also like to chat.

Pioli was a shitstain and I personally paid money to help fly that banner, however I will admit time has adjusted my opinion of him a bit. Even if he just lived off having picked Poe and Houston, those are heavy hits.

Still would kick in balls if given the chance though, cause you know...Kasl.

AJ Smith (our version of Pioli) lucked out in the draft a couple times too. Still doesn't erase the overall stench of incompetence that clouds his entire time with the Chargers. The same goes for Pioli.

It's kind of the expectation that you hit on some draft picks here and there in a 4-year stint. And negotiate contracts the right way.

And that's the only good thing Pioli did for the franchise. For the rest of his job he was an asshole and a retard. A complete incompetent buffoon.
