The 2004 Chiefs started pretty terrible and then rattled off a bunch of wins in route to a 7-9 record.

Instead of taking a QB, Vermeil / Carl opted to make a win-now draft pick by getting DJ because the defense was so bad that a rookie could start at MLB.

Yeah, sure, we still have DJ, but they could have had Aaron ****ing Rodgers sitting the bench for at least one season and possibly two. The team drafted for a defensive need because the year prior the team was 7-9 but won more games than they lost to close the year out after the halfway mark. People were scoreboard watching at the end of November hoping enough other outcomes could go KC's way so they could get into the playoffs with an 8-8/9-7 record though they couldn't get the job done in the last two weeks of the season.

The same shit is happening now with people looking at the schedule going "You knowwwwww, the only good team the Chiefs have to play is Denver.. the AFC is pretty shitty this year... 8-8 might actually get you in the playoffs, and the Chiefs can easily go 7-1 to end the year with a 9-7 record..."


Two wins against absolute dumpster fire teams, one win against a one-dimensional team missing the key piece to why that one-dimension to the team is good and five losses -two to actual AFC title contenders and one to an NFC title contender, one loss on the road to a team that is about equal to KC and a HOME loss to a dumpster fire team.

It's almost comical that people are hoping to back into the playoffs by being just slightly less shitty than the rest of a shitty conference if it weren't so ****ing predictable.
