Reality is, we'll lose and nobody will notice ... I'm on the end-of-the-season bandwagon ....

So, I did get to see the game. Although, for the first half and then some, I wished I hadn't. Damn, what a maddening team to watch. You can see the lack of talent, but you can see that they're trying hard. One play they look like bums, but then there's a flash of something here or there--a solid run, a good pass, a defensive play--that makes you think they could be better.

When Cassel had more time in the second half, he looked pretty good, but when that O-line doesn't block (which, unfortunately, is more often than not) then he's got no chance. I think Cassel could play better than he's played but, frankly, if Dr. Frankenstein made the Ultimate QB from parts of Brady, Peyton Manning, Roethlisberger, Brees, and Rivers, the creature probably still would get sacked and look like shit behind that O-line.

I still think there's hope for the Chiefs, especially in the second half of the season. Hitting .500 might no longer be a possibility but I can still see 6 or 7 wins.

Take heart. You're not the Rams, at least. Or the Browns. :shrug:
