Well the team has been failing since the last playoff win in the 90's which it is about to be two decades. To put that in perspective my brother was BORN the same year we won that playoff game... he finished high school and is going in the military. THAT is how long ago it was... so to say the sky is falling every year isnt much of a stretch since it has been falling for a while, the descent varies but I think they do need a spark and what better position then QB.
For me what really sells me on a team is "that" play. Two years ago when McCluster or Charles got that ball at the MNF you saw a will and desire to win that game and they did. They also won several other games but when they lost that drive (the Raiders game). It didnt even look like the same team when it was done. I want to believe in my team, I want them to win but playing like you dont care isnt going to get a win. When Charles got into the open against the Falcons he was chased down... he didnt have that same intensity he had 2 years ago. I would LOVE to be wrong about this I would even write you a handwritten apology note and send it to you but we all know when they start looking bad they ALWAYS look bad. Arrowhead addict had an interesting point that for the past 9 seasons now if we lose that first game we lose the season(part of what is wrong with the team).
I think while you have jerks on both sides of the my team is good or my team sucks argument, more arguments arise when the guys that say the team looks bad get hassled for saying they are less of a fan. I think everyone here INCLUDING MMO are a true Chiefs fan BUT they all see problems and what it fixed to see the teams true and AMAZING potential because it would be foolish saying an 0-2 is looking good.
