USA Today predicts Chiefs at 4-12 for 2014
I could see it happening but really 6-8 wins seems pretty doable.
AFC West Broncos 12-4 (2): Could be better than 2013 team even if wins and offensive output dip. But schedule is murderous. Chargers 8-8: Last year's schedule allowed late-season charge. This year's could easily produce late-season slide. Chiefs 4-12: Tight salary cap meant crippling free agent defections, and they didn't sufficiently reload in draft. Raiders 3-13: Best thing influx of over-the-hill vets can do is change culture. Carr, Mack promise brighter days ahead. http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports...colts/9767615/ |

You probably said the same thing last year dumb****. Teams that play turnover free efficient football win games in the regular season...Unfortunately we are still boned come play off time with out a league golden boy and what still looks like a bad secondary.

That's the only reason the Chiefs won 11 and made the wildcard last season.

Also Duncan why aren't you counting the first loss to Eggo where they lost due to losing Hali Houston and the 2nd game where it took a dubious call to beat kc s backups. I mean excuses and all....

Nope. Just trying to determine if I should ask you for lottery numbers or not.
(for the record: I thought the Chiefs were somewhere between 7-9 and 10-6 before last season began. They played a really fortunate schedule and managed to beat that expectation by ONE whopping game). If you can't look at 2013 and admit that the schedule over the first 9 games was Charmin soft, you're not being honest with yourself or anyone else.

LaFell had 600+ yards and 5 TD's so he's a nice #2 option. Getting Gronk back will be huge though.

Come on, man. The team last year was just like 2003 when their weaknesses were revealed. No defensive secondary, and not enough offense to make up for it.

These predictions are always worthless. No one knows what a team will look like before the season begins. You can guess all you want, but it's a crapshoot. Hell, I looked at our schedule last year and thought it was brutal when it was released. A ton of teams had down years and injuries and that proved to be to our benefit, and some teams were far better than expected. I think 4-12 is a ridiculous prediction, but that's just my opinion. I think 8-8 or 9-7 is more realistic.

Prepare to be disappointed, I cant wholeheartedly buy into "the NFL is totally fixed" but I can buy into "they often make it easier for certain players/teams".
They've repeatedly bent over for Manning and did so again this year with more rule changes that will specifically help his team... I'll honestly be shocked if they dont win it all this year. |

I kind of just want to make this my sig, to remind everybody of the dog turd proclamation. I really just want to see somebody eat a dog turd. That would be the culmination of my being.

How is that an excuse? They caught a 9 game break. It is what it is.
I lol when I hear people talking wild card this year. Apparently, the LC's of the world have chosen to eschew reality. Choco-dong will see a playoff game this year before Axl P. Checkdown does.

With so many shitty-mediocre teams beating up on each other, you almost have to try to lose 12+ games. The 2011 team somehow managed to win 7 and even the next season's team, which I'm pretty sure was trying to go winless, managed a couple.
But, Chiefs.
