Andy Reid still believes
http://www.kcchiefs.com/news/article...6-83e6b318c643
In the midst of a five-game losing streak, head coach Andy Reid still believes The first six weeks of football have come and gone in the 2015 NFL season and the Kansas City Chiefs have one victory thus far. That came in Week 1 against the Houston Texans, and since then, the team has lost five straight games in a row. To add to that predicament, there’s no more Jamaal Charles—his season has been lost to an ACL injury. The Denver Broncos, despite Peyton Manning’s league-worst 72.5 passer rating, are undefeated and in first place in the AFC West. In-game spots that could have seemingly swung in Kansas City’s direction have not. In this moment, as preparation begins for the visiting Pittsburgh Steelers this Sunday at Arrowhead Stadium, it would be easy for the Chiefs to point to excuses. But you’d be hard pressed to find someone in the building that is making them. Head coach Andy Reid has stood strong through the early-season disappointment, still maintaining his preseason conviction that he has a good football team in this year’s version, one that is capable of playing better starting immediately. “We’re sitting here and we’re 1-5. That’s real,” he acknowledged in his weekly press conference Monday. “As a coach, you’re a problem solver and I have to solve the problems and get that done quick here. I still believe in my locker room, I believe in our coaches. We need to get over this hump here and figure out a way to play better football consistently. That’s the challenge and that’s the way I approach it.” Reid’s message and call for better football has carried over to the team, and as his 10-year veteran in wide receiver Jason Avant explained, the older players have made a point of it to drive his message home. “What the older guys understand is you mimic what the coach says,” Avant said. “You’re always trying to give support for the coach, but also you know if you work in the same direction, it will work out.” Avant continued, explaining the Chiefs have reached a point of needing to play in the mindset of “playoff football.” “You can’t look at what your record is,” he said. “That’s the great thing about playing in the National Football League—everyone has talent and the teams that are winning are not because of talent. The teams that are winning are because they play together as a team and we’re trying to find a stride where we’re playing together as a team.” Avant has typically played in a limited role for the Chiefs this season but could see more time this weekend as fellow wideout Jeremy Maclin undergoes league concussion protocol. Punter Dustin Colquitt, who is in the midst of his 11th season in Kansas City, is known on the team as a player who keeps things jovial, and in times like this, he says he always will try to keep teammates loose in the locker room. Once it’s game time, that example extends to the field. “In between the lines, it’s obviously different,” he said. “I try to do it just with my play, try to put our defense in a great situation, give them a big field to work with. Our thing is, we just have to keep working and things are going to start going our way.” Guided by veteran words in the locker room and by the manner in which they conduct themselves on the football field, responding will be critical as the Chiefs find themselves in an unfavorable position while needing to rely on some inexperienced players in important roles. Charcandrick West, at the age of 24 and having spent 2014 on the practice squad, started at running back for the Chiefs against the Vikings last Sunday and likely will again this Sunday against the Steelers. Of his performance on Sunday, Reid said that West did “some nice things,” specifically commending his blitz pickups, good rushing attempts and his aggressiveness. Whether it’s by the on-the-field professionalism of Colquitt or the off-the-field guidance from a veteran like Avant, West has grasped an underlying theme that seems to have bolstered his confidence in his new position. “We’re family,” he said when asked about the impact of some of the veterans. “You turn to family when facing adversity. We’re just going to have to stick together.” The Chiefs family hasn’t given up on 2015; neither has Reid, who realizes the time for action is now. “I still believe it, we’ve got to do it though. It’s one thing to say it, it’s another thing to do it. And so, until we do that, it’s all words and that doesn’t mean anything.” --- |
He also believes he'll see his cock again some day.
What a dream! |

How exactly has he "stood strong"? He has been stubborn
|
Too many fat cells on the brain Andy. It's YOUR words that don't mean anything.
This WAS the year to take down Denver. They're nowhere near as good as they have been. Had you done your job, in this year 3, that might have been accomplished. Instead, you're going backwards due in large part to your own stubbornness, and that is TOTAL FAIL. |
Go **** yourself, Reid.
|
Too many crumbs in his mustache.
|
Reid's work with this years Chiefs squad has to go down as one of the biggest wastes of talent in recent memory.
|
The only path to salvation for Reid is the sweet release of death.
The more he says shit like this the more we'll lose, and the closer we'll be to the grand prize. |
What's he supposed to say, "we're ****ed and I give up, please fire me"?

Alex Smith is rallying the team.
Don't worry. |
Andy Reid believes... that this is the best way to draft Connor Cook.
|
'We have a talented team'
'We have to do better' What on earth else would or could a coach say with this talented of a 1-5 team? This like the head of NBC saying 'we still have money. We need to make better TV shows.' Then ****ing DO IT!! |

Same old crap every year. It's real simple and I hope they can hear all of us at One Arrowhead Drive. WE DON"T HAVE A QB THAT'S ANY GOOD! THE REST DOES NOT MATTER!
That is the way the NFL is these days. Your QB is everything and even if Andy is the coach. Even if he blew all our time outs for no reason. Even if he ignored JC more than he has, he would win if we had a stud at QB. Until they get a coach and GM that get that position solid, we will lose. It's that simple. Teams that make the playoffs and have a shot at the SB every year have studs at QB. The days of Brad Johnson and Tent Dilfer falling ass backwards into a title are over. You must have a winner that can rally the team in the 4th when needed and win. A leader the other 52 can believe in. We have none of that and have not had one is a very very very long time. 3 playoff wins in the last 45 years? 3 PLAYOFF WINS IN THE LAST 45 YEARS! It's the one position you must have on the team that is a total stud and the Chiefs treat it like it's nothing. Just throw any old vet out there and we'll be fine is their attitude. Pathedic. Year after year of QB shit and we are worse than other teams. They at least try with younger QB's in the draft. We do not. |
Pathetic, . . . just checking.

Sorry, season's over.
Start Murray and give me something to watch outside of this limp-dick offense and uninspiring defense. |
Josh Doctson could drop to early 2nd round. I want. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTiKymM-pYs

He believes in that FAT check.
Sadly, fat checks lead me to believe that not a single thing changes. |

It's hilarious when people complain that the Chiefs don't "develop" anyone, yet when they attempt to develop a player, that player automatically sucks because he doesn't see the field immediately. Plus, Tigeruppercut is Blackbob, so **** him. He's also 6'1, FWIW. |

This. It's just going piss me off they hand it over to Chase Daniel and he happens to win a game or two then they declare him the QBotf. **** them. We have no reason to waist our time with Chase Daniel albeit I think he would be an upgrade over Smith but that really doesn't take much. |

Andy Reid is positive he is glad he isn't Japanese or mr Hunt-San would hand him a short sword.

“We’re family,” he said when asked about the impact of some of the veterans. “You turn to family when facing adversity. We’re just going to have to stick together.”
