When you combine that with the very real possibility that they lack any kind of playmakers on the outside, and you have a team that is constructed almost tit for tat like the 1990's Chiefs. Ted Ginn seems more like Az Hakim than Steve Smith, and Davone Bess may be a good slot guy, but that's not a lot of talent to really work with.
That team is coached as well as any in the league, played the NFC West 4 times, as well as the Chiefs, Broncos, Raiders, Chargers, and Texans.
They aren't going to have 8 games against the two worst divisions in football next year, and they won't face the last place teams from the year before either. To assume that they are as good as their record is to seriously overrate the strength of their schedule and the quality of the veterans that they brought in (really a bunch of recycled Parcells guys).

NO MAN THEY WERE 1-15 LAST YEAR AND 11-5 THIS YEAR SO THE CHIEFS WILL DO THAT, TOO! CUS HERM IS AWESOME! THE MOST AWESOME CATHOLIC ALIVE!
