I and many others thought the Chiefs gave up way too much to be a mediocre wildcard type team with Alex Smith this season. A combination of the defense playing at an elite level and a powderpuff schedule pointed the hopes a little higher for a while, but it has come crashing down the last three weeks, as the Chiefs have played teams with pulses offensively.
Meanwhile, the team that the Chiefs would play if the playoffs started tomorrow - whom Chiefs homers were SURE the Chiefs could walk over in Cincinnati - just went out to San Diego and held the Chargers to 10 points, one weeks after Rivers tore the Chiefs D apart.
Hey, at least the parking lots and stadium are full again. At least Clark is making money.

I'm honestly baffled how you can talk about Alex not having what it takes to bring the team back when it was painfully hard to miss how bad the defense and the WRs were playing. Sure the pick was bad, but he played a fantastic game.
