That's just plain ****ing stupid.
Idiotic when you consider the think-tank doing our drafting...

Drafting in the Top 15 puts a lot of pressure on the front office and the player.

We've seen over the years how teams draft in the bottom 15 consistently draft well and those teams have great success, whether it's New England, Denver, Green Bay, Baltimore and even Cincinnati.

Consistently drafting in the Top 15, let alone Top 10 or Top 5, is apropos of nothing.

Other than the fact that the franchise and those running it, suck.

The teams we always come back to (the Pitt's and NE's of the world) do everything right.

They take the crumbs in the draft and make them ROTY. They don't **** up hiring coaches. They don't **** up singing the few FA's they do sign.

They only make trades that benefit them.

Why?

Why?

We, as an organization need to be asking those questions...

They have good QB's..

And less than 10% of drafted QB's turn out. There is no parity in the NFL.

If the Chiefs win their next two games at Denver and at San Diego then I'll buy the playoff talk.

The Steelers have won no less than 1 SB every decade for the last 40 years.
(i might be off on the 90's, It's late and I think they won that last one after 2000.)

The franchises with a long history of winning have an idea of what they are and build around that.

Denver, Pitt, NE, GB, etc...

Also, the Chargers are dead with all of their injuries. They'll be lucky to win another game. The Chiefs beat them 3 out of the last 4 times they played and had it not been for Succop's misses, it would be 4-4.
San Diego swept us in 2013.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm thinking they weren't a good team then...

The Chargers went 9-7 and made the playoffs along with the Chiefs that year. SD beat Cincy in the first round and we lost to the Colts.

Ah, I see why I scrubbed my brain of that year altogether...

That's right. My bad.

You guys know as well as anyone that the Chiefs aren't making the playoffs. The Raiders will beat them down 2x.

I do worry about this but you've gotten very bold in your 1st competitive season in 10 years...

True. In SD however a missed FG and a HORRIBLE call against the Chiefs, with several starters out, did them in.

We have to go 6-2. Pretty simple. Probably will lose to Denver so that means 6-1. The schedule is set up for it but that's a tall order. I'm guessing we finish 8-8
