It's like an endless cycle of the same stuff and I know it's maddening. I'm not posting this to be an ass or as some veiled attempt to talk smack. I realize that Denver isn't doing anything special this year unless they turn things around on offense. And, I sincerely long for the days when the AFCW is a beast again - overall with all teams playing well.
You guys have had an amazingly weird season and things got really bad this week. Injuries suck and losing guys like Charles are hard to overcome. It's like the franchise takes two big steps forward in the offseason and then three steps back.
So, just saying that I'm not going to get too involved with any commentary because you guys are tearing your worlds apart with all the talk around players, coaches, next year... there's no need in trying to pee in the pool at this point.
I hope things turn around, you'd like to think that Reid has an idea as to what his plan is and how to overcome it. Maybe it's time to blow it up again, but hell, that seems crazy.
You guys are a great fan base and you deserve to sit on top for a while, I do hope that happens soon. Sucks to be at this point so early in the season. Tex and others will flame away with the mule tool rhetoric and that's fine.

For me, it's just total fascination at this point. If you look at the raw talent this team has completely pissed away the last 20+years, it's staggering as to how they haven't just lucked into a playoff win at some point. It's like the Chiefs have hit the anti-lottery with the sheer moments of either bad luck or ridiculously WTF moments over the years. Not sure if I've ever seen anything quite like it.
My cousin has pretty nice tickets to the Steelers game coming up, and he told me he wasn't sure if he really wanted to go. He will, but his point was he's just sick of watching the ineptitude year after year, in spite of having legit talent on the team. I told him that when we had our tickets, we'd just hang at the tailgate either for the majority of the game, or blow the game off and stay and party. But now even that has become a pain with the parking Nazis pissing in everyone's Cheerios this year.
TL;DR - The Arrowhead Experience sucks compared to what it used to be.
