Versus the Chiefs

Shoe. · 09-18-2012, 10:15 AM

the chiefs do have plenty of weapons to utilize this year

Thunder/Lightning in Hillis/Charles

Bowe is a very good receiver

Also Dexter McCluster is no joke, and if Eric Berry is healthy he's a good safety.

KC is no pushover, but I do think we should beat them with whatever Domefield advantage we still have

They were more like a sprinkle last week. Just sayin!! With no running qb to worry about, we can stop the run!

OK, let's do it your way. Let's go out and win a couple of meaningless games. Let's beat the chefs, the raiders, maybe the yucks and cats at home, maybe win one or two other games and go 6-10 or 8-8 or whatever and then, instead of drafting at the top of rounds, be drafting in the middle like always and have to trade away draft picks to get players we need. (re: Mark Ingram) Does winning meaningless games REALLY mean that much? I'm more worried about the future than I am about this year where we've already fallen coming out of the blocks.

so wait; we are supposed to throw away the rest of the season so we can get the top draft pick?

You CAN'T be serious

So exactly what college player do you see right now to draft that's worth throwing away games? Our QB is locked up for 5 years, Colston and Thomas are locked up, the window of opportunity is now not 5 years from now.

What you hope for is that some hotshot DOES emerge during the season (like last year) so that teams are willing to trade up for them and give us THEIR draft picks. We swap 1s and get their 2 and 3 and maybe a 1 the next year. Use those picks and our own and get the talent we need.
The thing is that this season ended before it started when our coach was taken away. I've had season tickets since I graduated from college and will have them for the next 20 years (god willing). I'm no longer concerned about this year. I want to have a team to cheer for the next 20.

That why you have NFL scouts....
They're watching folks that will be ready when that time comes. I'm NOT a fan of throwing away the season base off 2 games. I'm hoping things start clicking... soon

Suck for Luck

Absolutely the Saints can beat the Chiefs!

I'm from Kansas City and I have been a Chiefs fan since I was a kid and when I was 12 years old and they won the Super Bowl I wore that sweatshirt with pride till it fell apart.

Yes the Chiefs have some talent but I honestly feel they have also been out coached the last two games

GM Piloli is taking most of the heat this week for Sundays embarrassing 35-17 loss against the Bills - but I think there's plenty of blame to go around.

Arrowhead is loud - real loud - but the dome should play a factor - if the fans make it loud and keep it that way for the entire game.

0-2 people. KC is a beatable team. It's in our house. Granted I have no confidence in our defense but I do think we can put up more than they can and win it. We are a good enough offense to stay .500 while our defense rounds into below average form and actually gives us a chance to win a few where we can't score 30.
