I would say it depends on why the Chiefs went 8-8, don't you?
Do you recall the Vermeil years? 6-10, 8-8, 13-3, 7-9, 10-6, right? Well, the Chiefs were trending upwards, then down, then slightly up again. They had a very narrow window in which to win and they couldn't get it done. Why? Because they lacked the necessary components on defense.
Personally, I believe this team is fairly balanced offensively and defensively, especially after the recent offseason moves. The draft is still seven weeks away and it's likely they'll add more talent to the offense and defense.
I'd prefer to watch the team in 2013, with what, at least six new starters and possibly as many as 10, before worrying about going 8-8 in 2014.
