Debatable. They've got the better passer in a ridiculously tilted league and won their playoff game on the road last year.

Damn homers - a team that beat us twice, won a playoff game and has the superior QB to us is the better team.

Which they wouldn't have had the opportunity to do had we not got ****ed in week 17 with calls/no calls at the end of the game. We also would've won on the road in Cincy. No doubt in my mind.

Not a homer I just don't hate my team enough to concede defeat to the ****ing Chargers. If the situations were flipped I know for damn sure the anti-homers wouldn't be giving us a break if we got our ass handed to us by the Chargers second units.

This shows the flaw in your logic...we will prove means we aren't until we do. Based on actual play on the field...the Chargers are better than the Chiefs.

But that's what I don't agree with. We might have lost to them twice, but like I pointed out we lost Hali and Houston the first time and the second time we should've beat them with our second team. We also would've won a playoff game had we played Cincy instead of Luck and the Colts. It's all circumstantial, not so black and white. We had the better team last year, but due to circumstances didn't prove it. This year will be different. The fact that y'all are willing to give them credit for the second win is a joke. The refs are the only reason the Chargers were in the playoffs last year.

Could have/would have doesn't mean squat...final scores mean everything. You play the schedule you have with the 53 you have...and you are either the better team or not on the scoreboard for that day. And the only apples to apples argument to be made is the final score of the two head to head games.

The NFL admitted that the refs blew the call in Week 1 that gave the game to the Texans over the Chargers. With that win the Chargers would have been in with the KC loss.

I'm not sure the tone of voice you are posting with here, and I know we don't have any Super Bowl trophies, but LT did win league MVP in 2006.

Also I'm never quite sure why the Chiefs fans hate the shit out of the Broncos and Raiders, but not us. We're the only AFC West team that has a winning record against the Chiefs (lifetime). Seems like you would hate us a little more. I guess you just like to grasp onto that 45 year old Championship, and since the Chargers haven't joined that exclusive club, we're not worthy of any hatred.

That call gave the Texans the game if you ignore that the game continued for another 15 minutes, the Chargers still had the lead, and then they promptly shit their pants and gave it away.

C'mon Buck, think about it. Raider hate is a no-brainer: Al Davis, chronic thug demeanor, ad infinitum...

Donk hatred stems from a combination of close playoff losses with salary-cap cheating, cooking-spray cheating, injury-faking, and cheap-shotting character.

The Chargers come nowhere near their level of douchebaggery. Raider and Donk hate is in the genetic make-up of Chief fans. Charger hate is more... temporal.

Its odd, I don't hate SD as a team, but I hate Rivers with a passion. He is one of my least liked NFL players. Its purely a personality thing.

Flowers' contract terms with SD certainly support the argument that his cap hit was too high. Hell, we may have offered to renegotiate, and he turned us down, and got less than we were offering.

And who cares about whether he goes to a division rival? So irrelevant if you ask me.

Was a great player for us, but his style caused him to break down physically and he's a guy that couldn't afford to lose a step.

Based on the deal he got I can see why we didn't want to pay him what he was scheduled to make. I don't think we got better by cutting him, but I think it allows us to make moves to get better in the long term. We'll see if they take advantage of it.

Elite is Brady or Manning, a guy who wins championships and can singlehandedly make the difference between being a mediocre team vs a team that wins 11-13 games every year.

Rivers is a guy who's been 7-9, 8-8, or 9-7 in 5 of the last 6 years. And this has been with a team that until Manning arrived was hands down the most talented team in the West year after year according to the media. If Rivers is an elite QB with that kind of output, then Gunther Cunningham is an elite head coach.

Rivers is a pretty good QB when the pieces around him are right and he listens to coaches. He's Tony Romo essentially, good but not great to this point...

Halfcan 06-25-2014 10:05 AM

LOLWUT? The Chargers haven't had the most talented team in the West since '09 if not even earlier than that. Anyone paying attention saw how AJ kept letting all the talent go and failing to replenish through the draft. Not that it mattered, as even the "talented" teams were wasted on Norv anyway.

I'm far from a Rivers apologist and quite frankly thought he was done a couple years ago, but he's better than he's given credit for. I'd glad we have him instead of, say, Alice Smiff.

It's easy to say that with hindsight, but frankly until Manning arrived last year, every year it was "the Chargers have all the talent in the world and are just underperforming."

Again, I'm not saying Rivers is a bad QB, but he hasn't proven to be elite. He's kind of in that second tier.

I don't think anyone is arguing that Alex Smith is elite, so that's not a great comparison. Was it better to hang on to Rivers than Brees? I think Brees has proven to this point to be the better QB...

I didn't say that SD was great, and I don't think they are. They've been a mediocre team for years, being just 2 games over .500 in the last four year stretch. In response to the poster who decided to go full homer, I noted that they've owned the Chiefs in the last 7 outings. That's all.

And it's guaranteed to be successful, even if you're relying on it to replace 1/3 of your starters in one offseason!

The Seahawks replaced the same amount of starters from 2011 to 2012 and went to the NFC Championship game. So...

Brandon Flowers' decision to join the San Diego Chargers is both business and personal.


The veteran cornerback, released by the Kansas City Chiefs last week, explained Wednesday on NFL Network how he reacted to the move and his motivation behind agreeing to a deal with the Chargers.

"I was very surprised when it happened," Flowers said on Wednesday's edition of NFL Total Access. "I know I hit the (salary) cap pretty hard, but I thought if I was going to get traded or released it would be in February or March sometime.

"The timing that they did it, it kind of hit me. So that's why I stayed in the division. I want to play the Chiefs again, let them know how I felt about it."


Flowers spent the first six seasons of his career in Kansas City, starting 87 of 88 games and earning a Pro Bowl nod last season. Flowers proved himself to be a staunch self-believer when asked who was the best cornerback in the game.

"Oh, first off, let me just say I'm the best corner in football," he said with a grin. "Let's get that clear. Don't let my injuries last year fool you, or take my name from the top list."

Flowers went on to name Darrelle Revis as the corner he admires most. Like Revis, Flowers has something to prove after being dumped well before his contract was up. Never underestimate the power of motivation.

He can now suck it.

I've been saying he sucks for 2 years but do you all agree now because he's not a Chief anymore?

I dont agree to that. My opinion of him as a player hasnt changed. He is pretty good, especially in zone, and is the best CB they have now.

But, I feel like hes bein kind of a douche, so **** em.

Why don't active roster players in KC every show that kind of competitive fire that Flowers has just displayed?

All good CBs are douches. It's a requirement.

Man...I think the Chiefs made a mistake letting him go. As soon as he went down in your playoff game the Chiefs got blown out.

If Flowers would have played as well as a Chief and as well as he says he is and how he says he's gonna play against the Chiefs next season he wouldn't have been cut.
