Yeah but then we wouldn't have a kick returner!

Man i've watched Washington play every pre-season game he really is impressive. He also would have added team speed don't worry the lack of speed is really going to show this year too. Crennel is going to have to run blitz Berry every ****ing play.

Brandon Banks looks like a pretty good returner and wasn't even drafted. Gotta wonder were the local scouts were all year.

[Mr. Flopnuts]

I think this defense will have improved enough for us to win 6-8 games depending on injuries, progression, etc. By the end of the year I predict Chiefs management will realize they need a legitimate quarterback and will have won too many games to draft one without a major move up the draft board. So, who's going to be a free agent next year?

Teams like Cleveland, San Diego, San Fran, Houston and Jacksonville will pummel the Chiefs with their running games. Indy won't need to pummel them because the slow defense will be so exhausted by the fourth quarter from trying to get to Peyton Manning all day that it should be an easy win for them.

The defense has a very, very long way to go. I'm just disagreeing with your point that they did nothing to improve. Between better coaching, better discipline, better gap control, better last defenses (Berry/Lewis), and probably a better 3rd and long defense (which killed us last year)....

They're not good enough yet to compete with some of the top offenses. Of course. But they've improved enough that teams like the Browns aren't going to stomp all over us like they did last season. Just my opinion. They'll be improved but still have a long way to go.

Finding ILBs in a 3-4 isn't rocket science. And finding NTs isn't nearly as difficult as people claim it is--like I've said many times before, if they were so difficult to keep, they would be paid accordingly. They're still the lowest paid player on the defense. Yes, even less in many cases than 5-techniques.

And I don't know why you're worried about speed. Our problem is size on the interior, not speed. We have plenty of speed.

I simply can't believe people are upset about taking a playmaker over Daryle Washington. That's baffling to me.

If they are so easy to find why in the **** is this team devoid of any talent at NT or Linebacker?

And no the problem is Size, interior, and speed. This defense is slow as **** besides the secondary even then you have Jon Mcgraw. It'll show during the season trust me.

Because the team spent 2009 ****ing around and in 2010, the uncapped season made it very difficult for them to get that many options in free agency.

That meant our only real option was to fill about a billion and a half needs with 7 draft picks. I for one am glad they didn't panic and draft for need. The only two picks I'd reconsider are Arenas and Moeaki, and with Arenas, it's not like we're getting nothing out of that pick.

Ok here are my actual (serious!) predictions

Wk Date Game Stadium Time (ET)
1 Sep 13 SD @ KC Arrowhead Stadium 10:15 PM L
2 Sep 19 KC @ CLE Cleveland Browns Stadium 1:00 PM L
3 Sep 26 SF @ KC Arrowhead Stadium 1:00 PM L
4 Bye
5 Oct 10 KC @ IND Lucas Oil Stadium 1:00 PM L
6 Oct 17 KC @ HOU Reliant Stadium 1:00 PM L
7 Oct 24 JAC @ KC Arrowhead Stadium 1:00 PM W
8 Oct 31 BUF @ KC Arrowhead Stadium 1:00 PM L
9 Nov 07 KC @ OAK Oakland Coliseum 4:15 PM W
10 Nov 14 KC @ DEN Invesco Field at Mile High 4:05 PM L
11 Nov 21 ARI @ KC Arrowhead Stadium 1:00 PM W
12 Nov 28 KC @ SEA Qwest Field 4:05 PM L
13 Dec 05 DEN @ KC Arrowhead Stadium 1:00 PM W
14 Dec 12 KC @ SD Qualcomm Stadium 4:15 PM W
15 Dec 19 KC @ STL Edward Jones Dome 1:00 PM W
16 Dec 26 TEN @ KC Arrowhead Stadium 1:00 PM L
17 Jan 02 OAK @ KC Arrowhead Stadium 1:00 PM L

Team will start playing well down the stretch, but it'll be too late (obviously). 6-10 is an improvement, but you can bet your ass Todd and Scott will be in the hot seat.

Tell that to Vince Wilfork, who got paid from a team that would rather draft a player from the rolodex of picks they have at their disposal instead of making it rain.

[Ralphy Boy]

Wk1: SD @ KC - LOSE
Wk2: KC @ CLE - LOSE
Wk3: SF @ KC - LOSE
Wk5: KC @ IND - LOSE
Wk6: KC @ HOU - WIN - Houston plays the Giants the week before and the Colts the next week, I could totally see them looking ahead to their next game, rather than focusing on the 0 & 4 Chiefs.
Wk7: JAC @ KC - LOSE
Wk8: BUF @ KC - WIN
Wk9: KC @ OAK - LOSE
Wk10: KC @ DEN - LOSE
Wk11: ARI @ KC - WIN - If Anderson is the starter, Romeo will know every fault he has and if Leinart is the starter, Haley knows his.
Wk12: KC @ SEA - LOSE
Wk13: DEN @ KC - WIN
Wk14: KC @ SD - LOSE
Wk15: KC @ STL - LOSE
Wk16: TEN @ KC - LOSE - Should be a great matchup of CJ v JC
Wk17: OAK @ KC - WIN

Overall Record 5 & 11

[Rasputin]

Hopefully we just get better this year and the progression of the young players continue to grow. That goes for our young Coach. Don't want to see us get our asses kicked Want to see us rip the heads off of our division rivals Become a feared apponent and bring back respect to KC Chiefs and Arrowhead. Wins will start to come our way, impose our will over the other team & focus on building a championship team. Win lose or draw, individual players need to get better or get the **** out. The team needs to get better. It's a process, I know, may take another draft or two before we get major results but over all performance needs to be on the up.


I don't want to pick W L this year I want to watch growth from the team, then start seeing the Ws take effect along the way.

Neither of these guys were going to make the CHiefs an 8-win team. Especially not Washington.

You obviously haven't watched Baltimore or Arizona in preseason, or read any camp reports on those two.

That, or your just talking out of your ass to cling to your point.

Good field position + 3 and out = thanks for nothing.

I have watched the Chiefs enough and YOU have watched the Chiefs enough to know that it's wrong to believe that this team was 2 players away from being an over .500 team.
