Thanks to the Chiefs
Always the bridesmaid but never the bride
Seahawks, Patriots both saw seasons turn after losses to Chiefs Posted by Josh Alper on January 27, 2015, 6:55 AM EST Dontari Poe, Russell Wilson AP The Kansas City Chiefs didn’t make the playoffs this season, but they had a major impact on the playoffs. Last week, Patriots coach Bill Belichick said that he felt his team’s play in the second half of a 41-14 loss to the Chiefs in Week Four was a turning point for the team. That loss led to a week of questions about how good the Patriots were this season, questions they answered by winning seven straight games and establishing themselves as the best team in the AFC. On Monday, Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said something similar about his team’s 24-20 loss to the Chiefs on November 16. The Seahawks haven’t lost a game since then and Carroll credited a team meeting his players called for galvanizing the change of fortunes. “There’s no question that the change took place the night we got together and the days to follow because of the leadership of the 12 guys that were in that meeting. They took the thought, they took the messaging and delivered it to the club. I told them I will do our best to keep us on topic, but you guys are going to have to embed the thoughts that are going to give us a chance to adjust at this point and they did a remarkable job,” Carroll said during a press conference. “There’s no doubt that our team has changed and we’ve grown. In essence we really recaptured something that we had understood earlier and we just needed to get back in touch with it.” The Chiefs don’t get any extra credit in the standings for being a common thread between the two Super Bowl participants, but 2015 will bring better results if they can find a way to extend that success across a full schedule. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...ry/rumor-mill/ |

That is sad when teams such as those two lose to the Chiefs and have team meetings to issue wake up calls. "We got beat... by the CHIEFS! Do you all know what that means?!" This organization has a LONG way to go before they ever reach respectability again.

Just three. They beat the 49ers, the Bills, and some other team.
