And with the prospect of day-2-day Haglund being back, there might some justified concern.

If you watched that defense and think it was well coached, fundamentally sound, and schematically sound, I don't know what to tell you.

Again, 3 former #1 picks, 4 former #2 picks, Houston and a bunch of #3 round picks. That's not bottom feeder talent.

If Andy really takes a hard look at all the previous playoff losses, what you mentioned has reared its ugly head in all of them! Damn his loyalty if he doesnt see fit to make a change at the top of the D!

Have no clue why you guys are worried about the cap and Patrick. In 2 years when they have a lockout all this stuff is gonna change the players will not give in this time around.

Hell, we were already playing with a cap handicap this year anyway. Just look at all the wasteful spending on defense. You add all that up and it's pretty damn close to the future cap hit of Mahomes.

This right here....

Yeah Mahomes' deal is going to cost a lot, but we incidentally wasted more cap space this year than they probably ever will again. We got very little value out of the cap this year outside of Mahomes, Hill, Schwartz, and Jones. Almost everyone else was overpaid by what they received, some by a very large margin.

You have to remember, the Chiefs are highly likely to get players to sign here for below market value every year now because they know Mahomes can win them a ring.

I understand the sentiment, and half the time I feel that way myself, but I think there is probably more of a chance that this season represents the start of a Chiefs dynasty. Mahomes may be that good. No doubt -- this loss hurts

The Pats tried to choke the game away with turnovers. This should have been a complete blowout.

Yeah, the Chiefs squandered a gift wrapped game. Thanks Ford.

Our defense is terrible. It's amazing that we got this far. We lost only to the greatest head coach and QB of all time.

Take your medicine. The future is bright.

Defense nowhere near good enough for this to be a complete enough team to consider this our best shot.

stevieray · 01-22-2019, 07:23 AM

pack it in.

don't waste your time then.

Coochie liquor · 01-22-2019, 07:26 AM

This may have been our best shot the last 20 years, don’t think it’s gonna be the best for the next 20. Just a little defensive help will go a long way, seems we’re abkut to get that via coaching change. Mahomes is the future, and it’s bright. Tough loss, and I’m still hating it, but in reality most here knew we weren’t winning shit this year with the 31st ranked D. It’s a testament to Mahomes that we got to the AFCCG! We’ll be back.

Jax and Minnesota were SO close last year

Didn’t even make playoffs this year. You get the idea.

Bortles and Cousins. Top 5 defenses regressing. You make such a convincing argument.
