Well, that's my rant for today. It's hard to be Mr. Jolly Pants when your team's season just went down in flames.

For me the above mentioned defining moment came at Oakland. It was then that I KNEW this Chiefs team was like all the other pretenders. Like you said, you don't lose to TENN & OAK and make the playoffs. As I said, my hopes were dashed in Oakland so today was an easy loss to take as I'm already over the Chiefs this year with the season not being over. Kind of like getting over your psycho girlfriend while you're still with her - it's VERY EASY to dump her on your terms - and that's what I did after the Oakland loss.
In any case, I'm with you on all except Smith. I agree to a point, but I believe the Chiefs can win with him IF they surround him with a top notch OL and some good WR's. You're right, Smith is not going to put a team on his back and carry it. He needs a good supporting cast. The Chiefs knew they were going to go with Smith and didn't upgrade the OL or WR's this past off season and that's what made it so frustrating, as I KNEW the product on the field would be exactly what it is. Front office - not good enough. You cant go with JAGS if your QB is one too...
In any case, great read as always and spot on!
