Chiefs Biggest Frustration with the Chiefs

synthesis2 · 01-05-2014, 04:28 PM

I think what bothers me more than anything else is there is always a certain amount of luck any team needs to win a game. Obviously skill and scheme play a big role in a win or loss but luck plays a role as well.

The Chiefs are just the team that seems to always have bad luck when it matters most. And I know we can go on and on about this and that but at the end of the day when probabilities say we should win we don't.

Example of that it take the third quarter when we score and go up by 28 points, if you play that exact game 100 times from that point in the game until the end we win it 95 times out of 100. I can't imagine that they would win it more than 5 times when it has only been done once in the history of the nfl besides this incident.

Example two when we played the colts and our kickers missed three field goals, you put that team and play those colts 100 times we win 90 times out of 100. That team was so much better than those colts it wasn't even a discussion.

Example three when we played the colts and they didn't punt. The odds of a team just making some type of mistake once or twice in a game is almost 98%, and that day they didn't drop one pass and we loose.

And we could go on and on but I think as a Chiefs fan you can't think that we are not snake bitten some how when we get these absolutely unbelievable bad breaks over and over.

I know everyone will pile on me for this and shoot it all down but we are starting to turn into the cubs, except we don't have the public love like the cubs, just sad.

I guess for all the teams that always have good breaks that go there way ( san Diego) there has to be the other team. And we are ALWAYS the other team.

There is always the draft....

Biggest flustration is not DRAFTING and developing quarterbacks.

Luck schmuck. The ball bounced the Chiefs way A LOT through the first half of the season.

Bad Coaching and a couple shitty players got them beat.

my biggest frustration??

1 AFC Championship appearance in my lifetime.

4th and 3 at the 25 up by 3. We hadn't stopped them in forever and Reid has us kick a field goal. Right then up by 6 I knew we would lose by 1.!
I'll never understand that decision.

Possibly, but think about it... After 9-0, yes there were 6 losses, but only against 3 teams. Good QBs exposed the secondary, you can fix that.

Stop comparing the Chiefs to the Cubs. The Cubs have won playoff games. The Chiefs are the Royals.

Alex Smith didn't cost us that game, he played out of his mind and had 114 qb rating.

Damn, you know it's bad when Denver fans are trying to cheer us up.

Thanks for trying.

He might not be elite, but he sure played like a badass yesterday.

Look at what their first pick in the draft did for them, and what our first pick in the draft did for us.

That's why we can't win. We always use recycled QBs.
