well the positive thing is : this team made a playoff push and I never expected that in a million years (and we're probably still 50/50 to make a wild card game)

Dorsey really had us set up to compete next year rather than this year which I thought was fine so the fact Reid did a pretty good job in getting a pretender into the playoff hunt is awesome

Two BRUTAL back to back performances on National TV....every coach and every player needs to have their collective azz kicked in. To allow our two most hated opponents to butt pound us on National TV is a disgrace of epic proportions. The KC Chiefs are ****ing FRAUDS. I wish I could tell them that to their face in a team meeting with every coach and every player in attendance. I'm mad because I bought into this years team after I swore I would never do it again. I'm mad because I invested so much emotion into another fricken KC Chiefs team. I'm mad because I went to that shitfest at Arrowhead. It will be a cold day in hell before I go back ! I'm mad as hell because I know I will watch again on TV...Its like a crack habit I guess and its going to kill me eventually and I can't do a god dam thing about it.

There isn't a shot in hell this team makes the correct moves to "compete" next year.

It's going to take at least three years.

And a pattern that has played out over, and over and over. Aside from the Gansz, Gunther, and Herm years where there was truly no hope, the pattern of KC winning a few games they had no business winning and putting themselves into the playoff race by late November, only to fade during December and limp into the playoffs has been this teams M.O. for years.

There's always that one game that exposes the team and last week was it. I was hoping it was merely a 3 days to prepare aberration, but I knew better. Last night confirmed it.

Well, at least KC can hang their hat on the fact that they beat NE 8 weeks ago. woo hoo!

0-3 come Sunday

WE DON'T GET ANY RESPECT FROM THE NATIONAL MEDIA!


..yeah...I wonder why.

The fact remains you have 3 teams playing like contenders right now (NE, GB and Denver) and a bunch of seriously flawed teams competing for Ms. Runner-up.

The biggest problem I have with KC is that their flaws were apparent in the offseason and the team didn't do much of anything to address them. Plus, the team is tied to Reid and Smith for at least 2 more years. Not much to get excited about, but one thing is for sure - come April/May the majority of the fan base won't remember 40 years of futility and every drafted player will be an automatic starter and upgrade and by gosh, KC will be competitive. (Until they break everyone's heart in late November, again).

Same here. After their second TD I skipped to the end.

Really no longer care that much. This team did over achieve. The defense is out of gas. 1-4 the rest of the way.

Because Chiefs!

This one was expected. I had no hope or feelings towards this game...

Once we Reid the bed in Oakland the season was over. They coaches knew it, the players knew it and it showed last night.

Its done boys. This season is over.

That's not really true. Add a couple O-linemen and a WR or two, and they can. Wouldn't hurt to add some quality depth at NT.

Are you endorsing large expenditures in Free Agency?

Really wouldn't take much to upgrade Mike McGlynn and Ryan Harris.

The funny thing it most would have taken 9-7 at the beginning of the season. IF the Chiefs get there, once you look at how they managed it, it takes whatever "shine" one can put on a 9-7 season. Backing into 9-7 is NOT the same as showing steady improvement throughout the season and reaching it. They're collapsing down the stretch AGAIN. That's not the kind of trend to build around.
