I sincerely hope this doesn't happen, but the wheels look like they've come off this season after today. Still turning the ball over, still haven't found an answer to the C2 shell, and the defense is still not making plays. And I'll throat-punch the next idiot that whines "Andy Reid is a terrible coach!" Open your eyes. this is completely on the players. Outside of ST and the IOL, everyone is shitting their pants, including Patrick Mahomes, who found yet another way to turn the ball over today.
STOP THROWING THE GADDAMNED BALL TO THE OTHER TEAM ALREADY.
**** these guys until they sack up and win a few games in a row. Whole roster is embarrassing at this point.

It'll be so inexcusable that ownership will be forced to make coordinator changes, perhaps Reid even calls it a career, and hopefully we can dump as many of these bloated underperforming defensive contracts as possible.
Cut Clark, tell little bitch Mathieu to hit the bricks, and ship Chris Jones for whatever we can get for him.
Sorensen, Ward, Hitchens, Niemann all hit the shit heap.
I didn't reply in this thread, but it wouldn't surprise me if I had guessed 9 wins at that point. Things were looking pretty bleak. Our D got healthy and has had an amazing turnaround. They've been brilliant [Reply]
I had them at 10-7 with winning 3 of 4 of the November games (figured they'd beat the Giants and Raiders and somehow split vs. the Cowboys/Packers).
So they've gained a game in my projections to get to 11-6. Additionally, some of the teams they're playing going forward have looked a little less concerning. But I'm not going to move them to 12-5 just yet.
It's hard to really identify 2 more losses going forward, but the Chargers could still get 'em again. The Steelers probably suck but those games are always bizarre. I don't think the Raiders are a real threat but it's not impossible. If the Chiefs can continue to take away opposing offenses #1 weapon, the Bengals are almost a layup (outside of Chase they just don't scare me).
I'd favor the Chiefs in every one of those games but not by so much that I think they'll actually win each of them. [Reply]
To be fair, no one knew Rodgers would be out and they most likely lose that game based on how they played (and who knows, maybe they play better in that game from behind)... and the Cowboys were missing their 2nd most productive receiver and lost their first during the game.
I mean, a few of the people you quoted are the usual chicken littles who will always side on "because Chiefs" four fucking years later, but even most optimistic people were having a hard time figuring out when they would get out of their slump, because it was pretty damn bad. [Reply]

I said 11-6, because I'm not a sky-is-falling dumbass who thinks the Kansas City Chiefs are going to be 7 and 10 just because they lost close games to a couple of good teams. [Reply]
