Croyle and the rest of this season?

[greg3564]

This is a harsh opinion, but I'm throwing it out there.

So when do we start Croyle? The last game of the season? Unless they draft offensive linemen and acquire some talent off the market(which they won't) the O will be just as terrible next year as it is this year. So do it now. Yes, it will be tough. It will also show what he's made of in toughness and mentality.

They knew they had issues going back to last year and even the pre-season. Did they bring in any starting free agents? Nope. Did they draft any potential starting O-line players? Nope.

Herm and Peterson keep telling us that the team needs to be younger but keep bringing in old talent. ie Law, Surtain, Turley, etc. Instead they invested a boat load of money into an ineffective RB in Larry Johnson who didn't even have the decency to honor his contract. That guy is another T.O. and Moss and infects the locker room like a virus. They should have kept Bennett and sent his sorry a$$ packing when he pulled that. Call Vermeil what you want, but he brought in good decent players you liked and they performed for him. He didn't like LJ and I guess we're starting to see why.

Personally, the rest of this season is a wash. Yeah, we might win the West, but it sure isn't anything to brag about like past years. That will be it, because we can't even come close to competing in the playoffs. Start Croyle, maybe rotate some developing O line players and let's give the "QB of the future" some experience and serious playing time.

Huard will not win us a Superbowl, the O line will not win us a Superbowl and a strong defense alone will not win us a Superbowl. I want a Bowl appearance and I really could care less about winning the AFC West. I think we sell ourselves short and are settling for less if all we really care about is the AFC West. We as fans need to demand more.

I'm so disappointed this year. I knew we would struggle, but not to this extent. There are so many problems that this team needs to address. All the way from ageing corners, ageing QB and a failure of an effective O line. They need to really, really shake something up now! You also never hear if Huard has even taken a leadership role in this team.

I think it's sad when we get get so excited over just making it to the playoffs.

That is the damn stigma that we as fans have to break.

10-6 sucks
9-7 sucks

11-5 or greater is all that matters.

Agreed.

I'm down with your signature, just think it will take more than a coach that dares the opponent to GET UP!

We HAVE to be more intimidating than this.

Scoring less than your opponents is not dominant.

Because HERM inherits playoff caliber teams and then turns them into 1980's playoff teams. If he took over such a great team in New York, why did they fire their previous coach? By the way, he also leaves good teams...or was the Jets' performance last year because of Mangini?

Dick was 10-6 and didn't make the playoffs.

It ain't just the Chiefs the entire NFL is without parity.

From your point of view 9-7 is better than 10-6, if you make the playoffs. again, i'll take playoffs over a good team that missed out...and it was only one game. it's not like they went from an 11 win team who didn't to an 8 win team who did.

If you have been watching the AFC west for 25 years you would see what I am talking about.
how is this relevant?

Obviously, the Chiefs weren't better than the Steelers. They had their chance make the playoffs in a head to head game and lost. Just because it happened earlier in the season, doesn't mean they didn't have their shot.

It's amazing that you could give the Steelers credit for making the playoffs two years ago the way they did, but not give KC credit for making the playoffs the EXACT same way the following year. The Chiefs won the games they needed to early in the season to put their team in position to take advantage of losses in week 17.

The Chiefs won to get in the playoffs last year. they didn't lose, then need others to lose so they could stay in.

lol...that's all Carl Peterson will allow us to do.

[greg3564]

Should be interesting to see what dimension Kennison brings back to the field. With Kennison, Tony G and D-Bowe running routes, the defense won't stack the box as much and Priest get's a little more breathing room on the strech plays and screens.

[texaschief]

It is good to look at stats, but if you haven't watched the talent on the field then you need to see some film.

are you kidding? please, explain to me how our defensive talent was better than it is now. You know, the joke defense we had since Gunther was fired? I think you're the one who needs to watch game film. That defense couldn't stop my grandmother recieving a pass from yours after my anemic grandfather pounded the rock up the gut.

There will be time for pumping people up. Right now, we're discussing actual football.

You are missing the point. With the proverbial "foot to throat" they CAN'T get up!

In other words, the coach is toying with the other team.

This has nothing to do with my previous point, but I called the Steelers winning the Super Bowl 6 weeks out.

My original point was we shouldn't have been in the playoffs last year, and should have the year before.

If you're so right all the time, why don't you bet on you're predictions and get some Arrowcash so I can decide whether you know what the f@rk you are really about?
