I said we weren't as good as our record indicated last year.

So, you are saying, counting the Chief's injuries, they were not as good as their record, but if they had no injuries they would have won 7 or 8. But if other teams had no injuries, the Chiefs still would have won 7 or 8?

Somehow with a ton more talent and a significantly weaker schedule we're one of the five-worst teams in the league?

**** outta here.

I didn't say I agreed with the author. I just believe our 2010 team was overrated. In many ways, I think the 2011 team was better - certainly at the end it was (with a real quarterback that we DIDN'T ****ING KEEP :mad: ). Green Bay would have laid a Little Bighorn beating on the 2010 team at any point in the season.

Dude, you've got some seriously circular logic going on here.

There's just no objective way to say "yeah, we had injuries but so did other teams, so we were WORSE than a 7-9 team".

Sure, we probably won the Bears game because of Caleb Hanie. One could argue that we LOST the Steelers game (to a nearly full strength Steelers team) because of Tyler Palko.

We went 7-9 and that's that.

Nah. We would have easily made the playoffs last year without injuries.

What I'm trying to say here is that you can't apply last year's record to this coming season.

We are unlikely to face five horrible quarterbacks.

You're still stuck on 5 terrible QBs.

What about the the best QB in the NFL that we beat?

We deserve credit for that.

But remember, the quarterback who took part in that is gone and we're stuck with a lesser QB.

But wait, now I am lost again. Or do you mean only if the Chiefs didn't have any injuries, and the rest of the NFL did?

Good Christ this is a stupid post.

Who won 10 games in 2010, with fewer weapons...

I don't care what Orton did in that game.
I care that our D manhandled that offense. 14 points.

I like Silver, but he's obviously not a fan of Pioli's based on his post-Haley firing articles (he likes Haley and texts the guy often). So not surprising that he'd be down on the Chiefs.

Whatever. This team has a lot to prove, so it doesn't bother me...

Mike Mayock said (what we all know) that the Chiefs are a very solid football team with very few holes. He and Gruden were surprised Peyton Manning never even considered coming here. It's refreshing to hear our team analyzed by people who know more than 4 or 5 of our player's names.

Mayock >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Silver
