Overreaction Planet
It took a perfect storm for us to lose by one point to the team with the second best record in the AFC last night. SB teams lose games (almost) every year. We have been hanging around 18% chance to win the SB all year. It will in all likelihood end in disappointment. This was always true.
Bottomline is we weren't as good as some of you thought before this game and we are better than some of you think afterwards. In either case, expect to walk away from this season without a SB victory. Play the long game. |

When you've had 5 or 6 'perfect storms' in the past 5 years, you might have built your home in the Bermuda Triangle.

This is the year when we were supposed to be letting Mahomes learn, while next year was supposed to be the year we actually had some draft capital and cap space to build around him.
I still think we've got as much of a shot as anyone at the Super Bowl this year, but it's just really, really hard. But be patient. We'll get there, and soon. |

No one is taking Mahomes for granted and likes the thought of coasting this year because we inevitably have better times ahead in our future. But the way this team is built right now, the players who are sticking around, etc., there's good reason to think we'll be in a great position to contend the next few years. I think people are just trying to look on the bright side after a tough loss in realizing that we're still well ahead of anyone's predicted schedule in terms of development AND we still control our own destiny for HFA in the playoffs. Only Chiefs fans can overreact to this degree in the face of those indisputable facts, but of course we all know why that is. Because Chiefs. |

Hey, I was as pissed off as anyone yesterday. I just try and force myself to remember that this season has been a blast. The NFL season ends in disappointment for all but one team.

Yep. Nobody saw this coming this year especially Mahomes being this good so soon. We all would have been satisfied with a .500 season IMHO especially knowing your defense can't even stop a pop warner team.

Difficult not to overreact when you are emotionally invested.

Yeah, when I was coming into the season I was thinking that I didn’t want to get blown out and I wanted some wow throws from Mahomes.
I’m trying to get myself back there but damn it’s hard |
