I think it would be silly to give up hope given that we have Mahomes and this defense, but there aren't signs that the offense's trajectory is headed in the right direction.
Hopefully the Raiders can be a get-right game in some respect.

Sure there are signs. Last night we had improvement against a good team. What is being lost in the shuffle is the fact that we were stellar on 3rd and 4th and short... STELLAR... I haven't rewatched the game having gotten back home so late, but there were at least 5 or 6 and we converted 100% of them. Thoney had a really good game. We ran the ball down a really good run defenses throat, even CEH had some good runs. It boiled down to a few plays. Mahomes pick on 1st down in the endzone, Kelce's fumble on first down in the red zone, Mahomes missing a wide open Kelce on a scramble to continue a drive, Watson dropping a ball on a 3rd down conversion, and the two holding penalties on pitchouts that seemed questionable that stopped drives. Drops and Turnovers this week, but guys were open, we did run the ball and we did convert on short yardage. If two of the 7 bad things above don't happen, we win by 2 scores and we are not even throwing that pass to "hands like a snake" MVS at the end of the game.
