Is this 2004 déjà vu?

[BossChief]

It just seems like so far that's where this offseason is heading.

We have a good year and then in the offseason we spin our wheels/take steps back...while other teams in division are clearly bolstering their lineups.

I just feel like this is the offseason we need to make a push to put the pieces in place to win some playoff games and unless we add some serious pieces, we have a better chance at missing the playoffs all together.

This doesn't have much to do with day 1 free agency as it does the fact there has been no movement to try and create cap space by restructuring deals, no interest in the affordable signings and we let 3 quality OL walk in a year a division for is bolstering their pass rush and coverage units.

Just feels just like 2004, so far anyway.

Anyone else feel this way?

And if they win a Super Bowl, who ****ing cares?

They are nowhere near as good as Seattle even with their additions.

Who is comparing them to Seattle?

This is a CHIEFS message board. We're comparing them to the CHIEFS.

Oh wait, there's no comparison.

It's obvious that he thinks very highly of his first draft to step up and take over.

His first draft ****ing sucked, so it's pretty clear to me that he's a ****ing idiot.

They are a hated division rival.

You talk shit on your hated rivals, regardless.

No disagreement here.

When you talk shit on a team that has had INFINITELY more postseason success than yours, it makes you look REALLY stupid.

I don't have a problem with what Denver is trying to do.

All of their eggs are in one large basket.

The problem I see is defense isn't the reason they lost the SB.

Their offense isn't going to get better. They are probably going to lose Decker.

Loading up in FA for a SB run just doesn't work.

Nobody can guarantee that it will work.

But at least you know EXACTLY what their plan is.

That's the biggest problem with the Chiefs. You have no idea what they're trying to do. There's no consistency in what they're doing.

No it doesn't. This is football. It's a million miles away from everyday reality.

I'll always talk shit on Denver. It's easy. I loathe them.

By the same token, I wouldn't do that to a person doing better than me.

That would make me an asshole.

And look stupid.

It depends really. The goal is always the same, neither team has hit the goal of winning the SB since Manning went to Denver or the previous 9 or 10 years for that matter.

The expectations are different though too. You pay Manning $18MM a year for 1 thing and that's a SB trophy.

Yea they got there and then they got humiliated.Good for them. They still haven't met their goal.

We got to the playoffs and blew a huge lead which is embarrassing as hell. We didn't hit our goal either.

In the grand scheme of things both teams came close but fell short of the milestone they are looking for.

I still think we have a shot to win the division next year. We will see.

The broncos just splurged on a CB that has missed 25 games in the last 3 years. They massively overpaid.

Real perspective here.

Bellichek does not let players get away who are really worth their salt.

Really? You know this after 1 season with Reid and Dorsey in charge?

Now you are going to try to say that it doesn't matter who the GM and coach are right? That somehow what has happened in the previous 50 years of the franchise effects what the new guys in charge now do right?

Clark has told them they are only allowed to do X and X only right?

Pfffttt.

The irony of all this is you are supporting a team (Broncos) who are doing exactly what the Chiefs have always done in the past. Get another teams QB and then load up short term and hope it pays off.

So as long as it's fantasy, it's ok to act like a complete and total loser?

Do you LARP too?

Only time will tell.
