I agree to some extent, but the problems are centered around a problem we haven’t had in prior years - the WR group being one of the worst in the league. I’m not sure if the past bearing out “they’ll get it together” applies to this situation.

I think this is where some of us have been the entire season. Trust in the process, trust in Reid, trust in Mahomes, and trust in the offense's development.
But that performance coming out of the bye is about as discouraging as one could get. I think it would be silly to give up hope given that we have Mahomes and this defense, but there aren't signs that the offense's trajectory is headed in the right direction. Hopefully the Raiders can be a get-right game in some respect. |

Better to lose games to the NFC than the AFC.
If there comes to be a tiebreaker situation for seeding, the Chiefs are currently in excellent position to win based on conference record. |

If we win out, we’re the #1 seed. We have a pretty favorable schedule so we’re in good shape there. Ravens and Browns will beat up on each other. Dolphins have a pretty easy schedule like us but I think they’ve got another couple losses in them. |

The Chiefs go nearly a month without scoring a second half point “every year”?
Yeah… no. |

But to OP’s point, I agree. No point in even getting worked up.
In 2019 we lost to the Texans in the regular season then dog walked them in the playoffs when it mattered. In 2020 we beat the Bucs in the regular season but got destroyed by them in the playoffs when it mattered. In 2021 we lost to the Bills in the regular season and then beat them in the playoffs when it mattered. In 2022 we lost to the Bengals in the regular season then beat them in the playoffs when it mattered. This regular season shit doesn’t matter. |

In 2021 the Chiefs were 4-4 going into the Packers game and the WR's had a problems. The offense looked lost.
Mahomes had 19 TD's to 10 INT's. We were going through a huge slump. We ended up fixing it and making the Championship game. I guess those problems came back in the 2nd half of the championship game though.

The team has the fewest second half points in the entire league at five per game. That's stunning and the personnel is set now. When you have to dink and dunk a false start can end a drive Three second half drives were stalled by penalties.

My gut tells me what has happened overall in the past is what will probably happen in the future. On the other hand, the Chiefs have been on a historic run hosting 5 title games in a row. Like the Denver streak, it's going to end sometime. |

The issue is this....before we could see a light at the end of the tunnel. We had real receivers that had talent and we knew they could/would step up.
We don't have that now...and Mahomes knows it and sees it. His frustration is evident....the same way you saw Brady get frustrated when he faced it. The question is...do we really have the talent that can step up in the playoffs. Getting there should be easier with the schedule we have but what will we look like against playoff teams. |
