Are there any bright spots?
Serious question, is there any facet of the game where this team shows promise? The Chiefs haven't been in TV here yet and as you can imagine I haven't wasted my money to go watch them in a bar. I see LJ had a decent day and we only gave up two sacks. Does that mean the line was at least mediocre today?

Also, what about Thigpen? Did he look as bad in the game as his stat line does after?

Anything at all positive to report?

You know who played gutsy today?

Cincy did, getting ass raped by the Falcons is not playing gutsy.

The offense did look significantly better in the second half.

However, this team still only shows up one unit at a team. The defense always comes to play in the first quarter, and then shits the bed thereafter, whereas it seems that Herm always scripts 15 thrusts of the butt sex offense to start us off.

What you're doing is picking out a few positives against a team that will probably win 5 games, going "see look at this"


In fairness, "see, look at this" is exactly what I was asking for. I wasn't expecting anyone to say we looked like a quality team that got some bad breaks.

Have any of Gun's FA signings worked out since his return?

You HAVE to look at the individual matchups this year. Their are WAY too many holes to judge the entire offense or the entire defense.

How do you expect the secondary to perform when they're constantly having to tackle running backs with a 20 yard head start? The linebackers are horrific. Absolutely horrific. We're starting and playing nearly four rookies and first year players (McBride, Tyler, Dorsey & Johnston).

Secondly, the offense has only ONE receiver, a horrific right side of the offensive line and a 7th round QB.

The fact that the Chiefs were actually in the game and never gave up is a great sign.

That's because the game is close, he has to be conservative when it's close.

The entire defense is like Derrick Johnson, they show up sometimes.

I'm sorry going down 24-0 scoring and threatening to score again does not make it "a game" we weren't playing the Cowboys here it's the Falcons.

The Falcons are 2-1. What makes you think they're not a playoff team?

That would be pretty much a no, though Surtain has been adequate (hardly worth the money).

They're other win is the Lions who are as we speak getting beat down by the 49ers...

We made the Falcons look like a Superbowl team.

They are obviously much further behind this curve than even the most ardent person could have predicted. I don't think anyone expected to get abused in these 2 games...
I did expect to be competetive the last two weeks. I was (and still am) livid at the decision-making last week and I was impossibly vexed by our performance early today but at the 24-0 point I just accepted we were going to lose. My hopes for this year: Chiefs win at least one game (don't care who), Carl and Herm get fired (and replaced with improvements at their respective jobs) and some of the young guys display something which gives reason to hope for next year and beyond. Anything else (Gonzalez breaking a record, perhaps) will be a bonus.

Sorry you and I don't see it the same way. I see a team that won't be competitive next year. I also don't think we were in this game (JMHO).

Yep, this game reminded me of the Tiki Barber game.
