And we're one game into this thing, and people are already acting like the season is over and it's all a failure.
It's going to be okay. No Kelce, no Jones, and it still took a fluke pick 6.
Lions are good. Chiefs will get it figured out.
The Lions might be good, but there was certainly very little evidence of that today. They made a ton of mistakes. We just made more. [Reply]

But....no. Gotta stay composed.
Because there is no ****ing way they can be that bad AGAIN. That was a 1-in-a-million level of sucktitude.
It's early. It's a process. There's no way it can be that bad again. Someone will emerge from this shit.
Last year it was the Colts game, this year it will be the Lions. We will look back at the end of the year and think "How in the fuck did we lose that?" [Reply]

Seriously. It's the same principle as Moore being left to dry on punt returns last year. At what point do you shift the blame to the staff that keeps running an obviously mind fucked player out onto the field. Not like he was the only viable option either. Watson, MVS, and Rice seemed to disappear out of Arrowhead at Half. [Reply]

But we’ll get it figured out. This was definitely Detroits SB, and congratulations to them they won it. But a week one loss isn’t the end of the world. We will still be in the SB. Pat is on point, Andy may shorten the leash a bit on Nagy this week. And hopefully we get Kelce back.
James and Ross and Rice need to be getting lots of snaps. JWat too. I had big hopes for Moore, but he’s just not in the same page as Patrick yet. We have some potentially good receivers in Ross, Rice and James. Time to put them out there and some MVS and WBF.
Sucks to lose on the banner drop. We blew out the Pats on their banner drop. They won the Super Bowl that year. Game one means nothing. Trade Jones and let Andy and Pat figure this out. And find a different scout on our WR team. The current guy SUCKS!

I guess you have no choice when they all suck. [Reply]
