Chiefs Game
I am just hoping we win. Really. I am not even anticipating a win. I don't even expect us to come out pissed and light the place up anymore. I just want to win. I swear I don't care if it is by a point, just win. I feel like we should win this game going away, but I am not confident we will. I can see us losing. I hope that we turn the corner starting this week. I hope that their offense is just what the doctor ordered for our D, but shoot I have no idea what to expect. Maybe that's a good thing?

Re: Chiefs Game
C'mon man... The Redskins and Panthers are not exactly the Chiefs. Our two losses came against teams that have QB's who are so unconventional and total dual-threats. If we can't put Matt freakin' Cassell on his back then I'll panic. We'll be fine... they suck.

Seriously, I hope we win, we should win, but I really don't know what to expect. |

We need this game badly |

We put up 358 yards against Washington, and 486 against Carolina. That's an ave of 422 YPG. Only Two teams avr more than 400 YPG last year... Saints/Pats/Packers No one ever said the 49ers had trouble moving the ball last year and they averaged 310 yards per game. Take Colstons touch back fumble out of the game and we win. By the slimmest of margins.. but win. |

Then toward the end we started moving it again, it was an improvement over Washington, but we still didn't look as fluid as we should. Plus I will say we had some drops too. I hope you're right man. Really do. I said that about the 49ers. Matter of fact I said outright that the game came down to protecting the ball because the only reason they were winning was short fields. Not that I am some genius because everyone knew we had to protect the ball in that game. It was how they had built their wins that season

A loss this week and I will start the Jarvis Jones thread. Watch me, I'll do it.

Re: Chiefs Game
and if there was ever a quarterback who could give us our first INT of the year, it's Cassel.
Who else does he have to throw to besides Bowe downfield? I don't think Breaston is even on the field much anymore but I haven't seen the games |
