Baseball's gay...

hmmm

6 pro-bowlers
1st round QB who was a special teams play away from a Super Bowl
best RB in the league
2 of the top pass rushers in the league
one of the best MLB's in the league
one of the best CB's in the league
one of the best WR's in the league
and a coach with a history of success including a SB appearance


Yep..nothing to be excited about here

JFC :facepalm:

The two passrushers and MLB are part of the 6 Pro Bowlers.

Also, will you still be excited when the Chiefs perform as admirably as any of the Missouri Tiger teams or the Royals? Or will you go into rage mode like you do when they all come up short?

Because the Chiefs will come up short. You know this, right?

This.

I don't expect a 12-4 season with 2 playoff wins, if that's what you mean.

I do expect a competitive team that will place itself in the position that a few calls there way could generate a playoff appearance.

NFL Football is such a year-year sport anymore with injuries and what not. Every season there are a couple teams that are expected to do real good that really suck and vice-versa due to injury or just not having it for that season.

I think our offense will not be what it was under DV but it will be better than under Haley\Crennel

by the same token I expect our defense to be better than under the past 3-4 regimes

So basically out of the gate I see 8-8 with potential for 10-6 barring injury

Pre season expectations are funny. Last year the Chiefs were division favorties.

I'm just looking at the obvious...

1. No more Cassel\Quinn
2. No more Romeo\Haley
3. No more Pioli
4. No more undersized O-line
5. No more read-react defense


This team has talent though I agree they are not the most talented but nonetheless

I see no reason to not be excited by this team this year. Our division should be rather weak so it isn't like we have to beat out the Patriots for a division win

That is it over yet?

with 2 wins and a shitty qb yeah.

OK second worse lol

I'd be on the horn yesterday trying to move Moeaki and Baldwin for a pick.

Both guys can probably help NE.

No. New England got the better end of the last trade we did with those ****s. Guaran-****ing-tee if the Pats got those two they'd turn one into a pro bowler and the other one a legit roleplayer that gets slobbering on a la Troy Brown.

I love Jamaal as much as the next guy, but in no alternate dimension is he better than Adrian ****ing Peterson.

Heard this last night on sports radio and it sums up all the reason I need for some optimism this year.

Only Mark Sanchez had a worse QB rating than Cassel, and probably would have been dead last if you project his numbers over more than 9 starts, when comparing his stats versus Sanchez who started 15.

... and people wanna argue that we have in Smith will just be a rerun of Cassel? Before his injury and replacing was Alex not I'm the top 10 of QBs? Yeah, he's probably not a top 10 guy, but the bar is already about as low as it ****ing can be to see an improvement from the QB position- and we all know QB play in the NFL has almost no ****ing impact on a teams success, right!!!!????
