i would like any d-lineman they want to take for that matter

ideally a 43 DE/OLBer they can ask to put on weight and platoon with Mike Devito in pass rush situations

think DeVito/Quiton Coples last year for the Jets. That scenario would be good for us I think

wish we still would have had Wallace Gilberry right about now, sadly.

What the **** IS a "True Fan", anyway?
Technically, as Seattle has already proven, 7-9 can win a shit division and once in the playoffs...

Someone that thinks trading a 2.1 and a 2.x for Alex Cassel 2.0 just to go 8-8 to sell tickets and be 'happy'?

AMIRITE?

I think San Diego won it with an 8-8 season a few years back as well.

FWIW, Seattle won their playoff game against the Saints.

As far as I can tell, it's someone who doesn't agree that we'll never win another game unless we draft Geno Smith.

So, I think it's wise that Reid and Dorsey but their best efforts forward into making the Chiefs franchise respectable. Respectable. That's a start, right?

How about making the Chiefs a respectable team - no longer a punch line or a laughing stock. If that can happen, then maybe at some point, the Chiefs won't be denied meetings with superstar players and maybe at some point, the Chiefs will put a consistent team on the field, one that makes fans of other franchises jealous.

Contrary to popular belief, that can't happen one week after the League Year begins.

And with all of that said, I don't think there's a single fan of the Chiefs that aspires to 8-8. I really don't.
I think the biggest fear from that is "respectable" turns into "medicroity". We've been down that road before finding band aid after band aid at the QB position. Most intelligent fans have seen the winning formula and know the winning formula so when the current regime appears to try something different from that forumula it's frustrating. They better be damn sure Geno doesn't have the potential to be a top 10 QB in this league if they are going to chose a 29 year old QB with a limited ceiling and that needs a superior supporting cast to be successful.

You're just all happy because we signed Chase. :D

I was too when we signed Brady Quinn. Your time will come.

Do you recall the Vermeil years? 6-10, 8-8, 13-3, 7-9, 10-6, right? Well, the Chiefs were trending upwards, then down, then slightly up again. They had a very narrow window in which to win and they couldn't get it done. Why? Because they lacked the necessary components on defense.

Personally, I believe this team is fairly balanced offensively and defensively, especially after the recent offseason moves. The draft is still seven weeks away and it's likely they'll add more talent to the offense and defense.

I'd prefer to watch the team in 2013, with what, at least six new starters and possibly as many as 10, before worrying about going 8-8 in 2014.
People already wanting to lose so we can draft a QB with that top 5 pick. Unreal! We just had the 5th, 3rd, 5th, 11th and now the 1st pick in the draft and we haven't drafted a QB. But yeah we should worry about winning to many games so we won't play ourselves out of position to draft a QB. And they're dead serious. :LOL:

I think it's BS anyway that you have a top pick to draft a franchise QB. 1st round sure but not the #1 or #2 pick. Flacco, Rogers, Big Ben nor Brees were drafted that high.

But let's at least get through this regime's first draft before we kill them for their direction. If they get back a 2nd round pick and take EJ Manuel, or they take a Tyler Bray in the 3rd (needs time, but big upside), maybe they get it after all.

The last few years have torn us down to the point where guys like Dane are dreaming of 8-8.

We could have gotten to 8-8 with Matt Moore...re-signing Orton last year...letting Reid try to duplicate 2010 with Matt Cassel.

Trading what equates to a mid first rounder for a 29 year old quarterback should get us a really good starter. A guy we can have legit hope of winning big games with.

Not a guy that averaged 207 offensive yards (rushing + passing) last year and was replaced by a guy that averaged 320 (rushing + passing) yards per game.

Matt Cassells deal: 2 years for about 4 mil a year.

mcaj22 03-14-2013 02:52 PM
how much money does Cassel get from us this year lol
