Chiefs Sympathy Thread

[Old Dude]

Gosh. I don't know what to say to our buddies at the Planet. Let's look on the bright side of things, though.

The Rams might be worse.

It's just growing pains. Just a matter of time before Herm gets things turned around.

You have the Falcons this week. It's a winnable game. Make the AFC proud!

LJ was just having a moody day. His leadership skills will come to the front pretty soon.

Your WR corps is healthier than Seattle's.

You might be in a position to have two A+ drafts in a row!

[Smiling Assassin27]

Brody Croyle--the next Tim Couch.

Except Tim Couch had potential.

[Kaylore]

The only good news for them is this is the season that will probably get Herm and Carl out of KC. Until then its going to be more of the same.

[sixtimeseight]

At least the Rams have an above-average QB, RB and WR. The Chiefs don't really have any of those.

[Old Dude]

You know, the weird thing is that I'm thinking about going back about five or six years into the archives to find some of their threads about how kick-ass that offense is and who cares if the D isn't all that, or whether we're getting lots of breaks from the officials, because we're leading the division anyway ...nyah, nyah, nyah.

I should smack you but I respect my elders enough to tell you that you are old and no one listens anymore :)

I used to enjoy talking smack with Chiefs fans, but ever since Herm was hired, I just don't have the heart for it. It doesn't feel right to smack with people who you pity. Herm is a terrible coach with weak credentials, and the respective likewise goes for the man who hired him.

I voted no.

[broncocalijohn]

If they get rid of their coach, GM and find a real QB, then they will be looking down on everyone else if those draft picks pan out. Add high draft picks for 2009 and their future might be bright. Kick them while they are down because I am sure they would do the same to us. I just hope they can muster up a few wins and keep the Faiders in last place.

That's funny. Those are exactly the rumblings I'm hearing on this board these days. How the offense and Cutler will carry the day for the Broncos.

I remember many of you telling us how an explosive offense and less than average defense would never work and we would always be exposed as pretenders because you have to have balance. We even had killer special teams to compliment the offense.

Remember boys and girls....defense wins championships.

I learned that mantra right here on Orangemane. Everyone was singing it.

Yeah, that was my whole point .... although there is one major difference. KC, in it's glory days, such as they were, was accomplishing a lot of that stuff with an aging group ... Roaf, Shields, Green, Holmes, etc. Denver's offensive stars look to be young enough to hang around for a good long time. Hopefully, we'll have better luck at building a defense than you did.

You're so jealous it's hilarious. Who said we're going to win a Championship? Who here has said the defense isn't going to be a problem? You sure like to imagine things around here different than they actually are.

To be fair though the changed rules favor offense more these days. IIRC there was also an article on espn (by Sando?) that officials are not calling OL holding as much as they used to. The chiefs team of few years back would have a better chance now.

I agree about D winning championships. Do I think we will win it all this year? No.

Am I happy that we have a ton of Picks stockpiled and we are in position to trade away depth on O? YES!

Do I think we are one good Defensive Draft/blockbuster trade away from a Dynasty for the ages? YEP!

[Old Dude]

Well, Herm's five year plan with the Jets went something like this:

10-6, then 9-7, then 6-10, then back up to 10-6, then whoops, down to 4-12.

He managed to take the Chiefs to 4-12 in just his second year, so there's no telling how exciting things could get from there.

Do you still feel defense wins championships? Or has that changed? Perhaps you're saying the Broncos wont win a championship. I dont know.

2 or 3 years ago?

Damn friend, have you considered taking football a little less seriously. I'm sure had the Chiefs fans known they were wrecking the next few years of your life, they might have scaled it back a bit.

Let me be the 1st to say I appologize. That said, I dont need your sympathy. Life is good here.

[Br0nc0Buster]

Sympathy for the Chiefs?
No thanks

The fans I know around here are quite cocky about a team that hasnt dont jack in 15 years.
I got made fun of and laughed at by all my Chiefs fans friends when I told them Herm was gonna run them in the ground......:rofl:

I actually hope they get better and are good enough to where people are thinking they are improving
If they only win 2 games this year then Herm and Carl are prolly gone, and I would rather they stay

[Odysseus]

That flickering light in the distance is Narrowhead stadium. There used to be a football team there until tragedy struck in 2008.

Herman "Swirling down the drain" Edwards, now HC of the Oakland Raiders had this to say......

[maher_tyler]

Hilarious! LOL Ha! ROFL! LOL Hilarious!

Another top 5 draft pick goes to........the Kansas City Chiefs!!!

[boltaneer]

My only sympathy goes to the smarter Chief fans who have to put up with whiners who make up 90% of that board.

The Chiefs are rebuilding. I don't understand why their fans are so down except that they have no patience. The ones b****ing and complaining are the ones who don't understand. Yeah, they've made some big mistakes like not drafting a QB this past year but they can correct that next year. You're not going to be able to fill all the holes at once.

Do they really want to go back to stop gap washed up vets and 7-9 seasons again? The Chiefs are finally doing the right thing and their fans need to realize that. Yeah it sucks having hopeless seasons. I've been there and done that during most of the Bobby Bethard era here.

[bap454]

WOW! ....It gets even worse. They actually have a " get brady quinn" petition signing thats actually going to get sent to team headquarter regularly!!

http://www.getbradynow.com/

[Bladerunner]

I think boltaneer is basically right, although it's difficult to really rebuild until you find at least a servicable QB...Johnson just got paid, but I'm not sure he'll have the mental toughness to make it through the hard times or the stamina to still be good once the team improves...

KC fans are definitely deluding themselves if they were hoping for better...if I were one, I'd be concerned about the overall strategy for turning that thing around, because I'm not sure I see one.

[PLOWHORSE]

Early in the third quarter Week 2 against the Raiders, Larry Johnson rumbled up the middle for a 2-yard gain, his 12th carry against the Oakland Raiders. It turned out to be Johnson's last -- and he didn't like it. Unhappy with his role in a dismal offense, Johnson lashed out at Kansas City's coaching staff and front office Sunday, saying he didn't see himself being a part of the team in the future. "Something's going on -- I just don't know what it is," Johnson said after a 23-8 loss to Oakland in the Chiefs' home opener. "I'm going to sit down and talk with someone." Johnson had a relatively successful start to this season, running for a team-high 74 yards on 22 carries in a hard-fought 17-10 road loss to the defending AFC champion New England Patriots. He didn't have nearly the same impact against the Raiders, finishing with 22 yards for a 1.8 per-carry average, and complained about it afterward. "I've been here long enough to know that if I'm not getting the ball, then I'm tired," he said. "If I'm not tired and I'm not getting the ball, something's going on and I've got to deal with it."

It'd be tough. For the moment, I do kinda feel sorry for them. We haven't really faced the tough times they have in quite a while. Certainly not since Elway. Tough to dedicate hours of your time every week to a team that is looking down the barrel of 0-16. Came close to it last year and could be around there again next year. - No they probably will pick a win or 2, but between and including seasons 07 -09 they'll probably have a combined record of around 9 - 39 (That gives them 5 wins to split between the next 2 years)

I never feel bad for the Chiefs. I think since the mid 90s they've had the best record against us in the division, being 12-12 since 1996 while we're 18-6 against the Raiders and 16-9 against the Chargers in the same period.

I love when the Chiefs are terrible.

For those of us who are here to actually talk football, do us all a favor and leave us alone.

[KCStud]

The Chiefs are mainly as bad as they are because they are the youngest team in the league.

Herm may not be a great coach, but he is a good judge of talent in the draft from what I have seen.

Bowe-Great pick
Page-Great pick, especially from the 7th round
Pollard-Looking great this year.
Flowers-Great pick
Albert-Has looked good so far. Better than Williams and Long who were drafted ahead of him.
Charles-Looks pretty good. Will make an impact.

KC is building the pieces. If KC has another great draft class which includes a good QB-insert Stafford hopefully-, then KC could be a rising team within the next 2 seasons.

[Kaylore]

Jake Long is playing phenomenally.

[24champ]

Chiefs will finish 0-16 this year. No sympathy for their suckiness.

[FireFly]

Jake Long is playing phenomenally.

Before the season, I picked that as going 1-15 picking up their single win against the Falcons this week. Now, 0-16 for sure imo.

It all comes at a cost. For the Chiefs it will be steep.

I see the Chiefs taking Matt as well. Hopefully it will be with the #1 overall pick. Add that to the two #1s last year....along with grossly overpaying LJ...and you have a team that will be in cap hell in no time.

Hey at least there is talent on the team. Dorsey and Albert look good. I'll admit I thought Albert would bomb at LT but he looks ok (though his run blocking is well below what I expected). Flowers is going to start for a long time and Bowe and Gonzo will be much better if you guys ever get someone to throw them the ball. Your punter is pretty good too. You guys need help at line, DE, LB, QB and kicker. Throw in a real coach and things could turn around. Good luck!

Heh, I agree with the sound of this season's toilet flushing. I do however think personnel wise we have a good core of players. esp on defense. I am loving our young CBs.

If we can get a coach that doesn't play too scared to do anything buttsex football I think this is a team heading in the right direction. That is a big if. Alot of problems will improve with a better established o-line. I think we have the skill players to have an adequate offense with a line that isn't a **** sandwich.

[ZachKC]

Nobody could run with this line.

Nobody.

[gyldenlove]

How the hell they have dismantled the offense so bad is beyond me. They had the strongest offense in the league in terms of total yards the year before they hired Herm Edwards a little more than 2 years ago. Now they have the 27th ranked offense in 2008. Their defense was 25th in the league in yards per game in 2005 before Edwards, and is 24 now.

They have gone backwards so fast it makes teams like the Raiders and 49ers look like dynasties.

[Florida_Bronco]

LJ couldn't run last year either. Face it, he's done. Herm ruined him.

[Crushaholic]

Croyle > Thigpen > Huard

Of those three, only one is a proven winner. I'm sure you HOPE Croyle and Thigpen have bigger upsides than Huard, but that's simply not the case at this point...

[Kid A]

Well we had that last year. Im looking for such absolute and complete domination that Arrowhead will become a home away from home as a way of building off of last year.

They had the strongest offense in the league in terms of total yards the year before they hired Herm Edwards a little more than 2 years ago. Now they have the 27th ranked offense in 2008. Their defense was 25th in the league in yards per game in 2005 before Edwards, and is 24 now.

They have gone backwards so fast it makes teams like the Raiders and 49ers look like dynasties.

Well, this isn't defending Herm because I would like a different head coach...

But...

Vermeil's draft ****ed us so hard. He put together that amazing offense...woohoo...tons of points...yay...everyone is having fun. Then his crusty old guys got really crusty and couldn't play anymore...so they are gone. And then he drafted total ****. Just complete messes for drafting. We only got like a few good guys. So you have old guys gone and very few talented new guys coming in.

That leaves you with a ****ing mess.

Herm? Player decisions? Yes. Great job.

Gameday coach? ****ing ****.

[ZachKC]

Of those three, only one is a proven winner. I'm sure you HOPE Croyle and Thigpen have bigger upsides than Huard, but that's simply not the case at this point...
Croyle got injured. He wasn't playing poorly before injury, considering his lineman on the right side were less lineman and more so ushers to his location in the backfield.

[ZachKC]

LJ couldn't run last year either. Face it, he's done. Herm ruined him.

And nobody could have ran with our line last year.

[Bob's your Information Minister]

Convenient how Florida Bobbo ignores the 100-yard games LJ put up last year DESPITE our horrible godforsaken offensive line.

Rekindle memories of the 30-7 Monday Night Meltdown with Sharpe yelling "This is our house, we're just renting it to you" at the fans.
Indeed. It would be nice to make it our vacation home...or maybe start calling it Mile High East.

we have a mile high south, University of Phoenix stadium, might as well add another

Indeed. It would be more satisfying in KC though.

[Atwater His Ass]

KC isn't going to get any better until they get a real QB. They have some talent, but it's not going to matter if they keep throwing guys like Croyle and Thigpen out there. At least with Huard they can be somewhat competitive. Somewhat.

Yea, I disagree. Huard sucks really hard.

[KCStud]

Jake Long is playing phenomenally.

From what I've seen he has been playing really well in the run game, but average at best in pass protection. Kenyon Coleman sucks bad and Long handled him, but Berry beat Long multiple times and got a sack.

Well, the good news for Chiefs fans is that you should get your first win in awhile this week, because Atlanta really isn't very good. I mean geez ... who is left there?

Vick is gone. Crumpler's gone. So is Rod Coleman, Warrick Dunn, DeAngelo Hall and Joe Horn. They just got whipped by Bob Griese, for crying out loud.

Bad news is brodie won't get that win.

We won't beat the Falcons. Ryan can actually read a defense unlike fatass Russell.

Didn't you promise you were going to root for a new team if the Chiefs lost to the Raiders?Ha!

[Bob's your Information Minister]

Yes. I kept my promise.

I think I can pinpoint the KFC DeathSpiral to an Interview held at KFC camp last year between some dude named Clayton and Herm.

Herm never seemed the same after that.

[Bronx33]

Yes. I kept my promise.

Everthing you are affiliated with ends up with a stupid ending. Hilarious! the blues? you are a gluten for punishment bob.

It's true, we did have a conversation. Maybe I cast self doubt within him. I'm so sorry, Herm. You're the best.

[Orange_Beard]

Yes. I kept my promise.

More losers.

[Miss I.]

New thoughts from another Chiefs website and suggestions to improve their game: (I picked it up because I was watching the NFL channel and they mentioned it and the Get Brady Quinn petition.)

[Old Dude]

Well, so much for the Atlanta game.

But this is not the week to feel any sympathy for them. I hope Denver hangs 70 points on the Chiefs.


(And who knows, with this defense, we might need it.)

[crazyhorse]

Bump.

No cryin' now. You guys deserve it and you know it.

Good game.

Better luck next week.
