Chiefs Do You Suffer from TFS? True Fan Syndrome? If So, We Can Help - Page 10

'Hamas' Jenkins · 10:48 PM

Do you lie awake at nights dreaming of 8-8, or 9-7?

Do you judge a season as a success by a Wild Card birth?

Do you believe that defenses and running games are more important than franchise QBs?

Do you hate wide receivers?

Do you love coaches with a complete inability to spot talent at the running back position?

Do you think that 3-13 is better for the long term future of the franchise than 2-14?

Do you think the 2002 Bucs and 2000 Ravens are model NFL teams to aspire to?

Do you find playoff records to be irrelevant?

Do you believe that guards and right tackles should be taken with top five picks?

Do you believe that a quarterback is best served as a game manager?

Do you believe that every 3rd Down play should either be a screen or a draw?

Do you believe kicker is the most important position on the offense?

Do you believe that all of the best prospects reside in the Big XII?

Do you believe in trading down in any situation during the draft?

Do you believe that a team is better served picking 20 rather than 5 because they don't have to pay the player as much?

Do you believe that the only way to be a winning team is to throw money at the most expensive Free Agents every year, regardless of need?

Do you judge QBOTF by their box scores?

Do you think that risk is scary, and therefore, wish to draft last in every round to avoid the perception of failure?

Do you think that Marty and Bill Cowher are the only two coaches left on the planet?

Do you think that Gunther was once a great coordinator?

Do you think that reaction is safer than action?

Do you think every other team that actually drafted a QBOTF just 'got lucky' and that it could never happen to us?

Is your name [alias of claythan and hootie]?

Do you prefer tailgating to Championships?

Do you fear the unknown?

Do you believe that 'being close in the 4th quarter' is the objective of an offense?

Do you believe that the run sets up the pass?

Do you believe that Stafford "has done nothing worth mentioning" in college?

Do you think QBs don't need to know how to play from under the center, and that learning 5 and 7 step drops is irrelevant because once Thigpen completed a 7 yard pass to a hall of fame tight end in quadruple coverage?

If so, you may suffer from TFS, True Fan Syndrome. Here at the ChiefsPlanet Clinic, our staff of experts can help rid you of this debilitating malady. Through study of game tape of such contests as Super Bowl XXIII we can help ameliorate the effects of play not to lose football.

Upon registering at our world-renowned clinic, you will be given the following ID badge:

After six weeks of therapy, our cure rate for TFS approaches 91%, which ironically, is slightly better than Herm Edwards' losing percentage the last 23 games.

We're here to help.

My only point is that the risk if worth it, and it's one that this franchise must take. For grins, let's say we are fortunate to draft a Stafford, and then let's say he sucks the penis for three straight years. No development. No indication that he'll improve. I'm going to be the first to say, let's draft another QB. Let's keep firing.

True fan, b/c his mother clearly swallowed the fraction of the sperm containing his nut sack, is far too scared to try once, let alone to try, fail, and want to try again.

Agree 100%.

The question for some people is: Is Stafford worth that risk?

To some he is - to others, he isn't.

Where things get lost in translation is when the Stafford-ites try to claim you're not willing to take the risk just because you don't like their guy.

And there's the problem. And this is probably something that has happened with every single great QB in NFL history.

In Indy, there were probably a group of loud mouths screaming for Ryan Leaf. Probably about 50 percent of the fan base. It's the same thing here. About 75 percent of the board wants to slob Stafford, while the others dream of coddling Bradford's sack.

Yes and with a few fans around here if you don't like their guy or plan then you get labled a "True Fan".

I'm pretty sure Houston considered David Carr a franchise QB, or they wouldn't have picked him 1st overall.

You're also using guys that were picked in later rounds, and this place is notorious for saying you can't get a franchise QB outside the Top 15.

Again, I agree with you guys, but I think you're going about it the wrong way.

Let's try to define "Franchise QB" in the draft.

He's guy with talent.
Reasonbly strong arm, reasonable accuracy, has shown an ability to make plays when there aren't any to be made, has a good head on his shoulders and a leader.

What you are actually trying to define is potential.

No one can look at a QB and say he's a franchise QB.

We can only say that he has the potential.

Gotta say, it's really hard to take people who don't like "my" guy seriously when they come in here and tell us that Chase Daniel is a better prospect.

They are either unwilling to admit they are afraid to take the risk, or simply the dumbest mother****ers on the planet.

I suggest that you get your things in order, for if you continue to say things like Dorsey is a bust, your TFS may be present in the frontal lobe, which would indicate euthanasia as the only course.

Your TFS Primary Care Counselor will be OnTheWarpath58.

you're such a dork but i'll give you some man love

just no medication ok? The videotherapy is fine i can handle that.

See, that's where I call BS.

There are two posters, who will remain nameless, (they know who they are, and honestly, so does everyone else) who attack anyone who doesn't like Stafford. Period.

I've said countless times that I'm not sold 100% on Stafford, but if Sanchez was to declare, I'd be all for it.

I was labeled a true fan, chickenshit, afraid to take risks.

It's bullshit, and you know it.

You know as well as I do this isn't exclusive to the guys who pimp Daniel...

ChiefsCountry · 12-17-2008, 10:55 PM

I got some pretty good data coming up on top 5 quarterbacks.

Oh, I know that there are some pretty good posters that don't agree with me, and I have been open minded in my debates in the Stafford v. Bradford debates..

But I do call out some idiots, like the one that actually started the thread that he stated Daniel is a better propspect and I just wanted to set the record straight.

**DeezNutz** · 12-17-2008, 11:01 PM

I'll say one thing about Stafford. He might be the ugliest mother****er in the draft. And this is the guy who is going to be "the face of the franchise"? He's going to cock block Chiefs fans all over the country, as well as reaffirm the Camaro persona.

No. Now there's a good debate.

I haven't been feeling good lately.

I fear I may have contracted something from my close contact to many of the planeteers.
