KC Chiefs - Week 17

[ShockerGorilla]

Chiefs were 4-6 in their last 10 games, Broncos were 2-8. Not sure I would be that happy with McDaniels.

What were the record of both teams in their first 6 games?


You can snip and clip at the stats you want to see, but when it comes down to it, the Broncos finished 8-8 and the Chiefs finished 4-12.

...which means, the Chiefs doubled their win total from last year, and the donkeys stayed the same.

It's not hard to double your win total when you only win 2 games.

As a Chiefs fan, right now, I will take anything! Cut us some slack!

Quick assessment suggests that the Chiefs enter the offseason on a relatively high note, and with a good draft, could be in position to finish 8-8 next year.

I would submit that it's the first time in a long time that a Chiefs fan could say that, and be truthful to himself.

I agree, we also have some extra cash from cutting LJ for a couple nice free agency pick ups.

I'd like to see Haley hire an OC that he is comfortable with. It makes little sense for an NFL Head Coach to not use an OC, and call his own plays. The Head Coach can still put his stamp on the offensive game plan, but there are too many other things going on during a game that could distract from his attention to the offensive sequence.

FWIW, I feel the same about college football.

You can snip and clip any way you want but the Chiefs were a significantly better team on the football field yesterday than the Broncos.

That is true. I haven't looked at strength of schedule between the two teams, maybe the Chiefs was easier and Bronco harder at the end.

Maybe the butt kicking is "fools gold" for the Chiefs to make you think progress is being made when in fact they are not and they got to play a Bronco's team that is regressing? Or if Bronco fans are happy with their team then maybe truly KC is making progress. It would be interesting to know what Bronco's fans thought are on it?

I'd also be interested in knowing what happened to Eddie Royal? One year wonder or just didn't jell with Orton? It's strange to see Gaffney as their 2nd best WR on the team.

If there was only 2 QB's left for fantasy football draft (Orton and Cassel), who would you draft and why?

Ryan Succop. I have more confidence in him

And one game certainly doesn't make a season, unless you're a Chiefs fan, when yesterday was your "Super Bowl".

If Haley actually convinced the Chiefs players that sunday game was their "super bowl" - he must be a good "motivator". Either way it is still a positive for Haley that he got his team to play hard when obviously there wasn't anything to play for except for pride.

At least it will make for interesting off season to actually see if Pioli is really any good and to see what Haley has learned (e.g. changes in staff).

If I were a Bronco's fan I would be tearing my hair out. An epic collapse last year. Coach fired over it. New coach comes in and an epic collapse again this year. Plus Orton is now starting quarterback and Marshall is on his way out.

Chiefs were horrible. Hire new coach. Double win total from last year. Stomp division rival on their home field in last game and look forward to Pioli drafting with high picks.

At the end of the day, in the NFL, all that matters is the playoffs. Neither made it this year and I remain unconvinced that the Broncos will be their before the Chiefs.

The Chiefs did have an easier schedule overall. The NFL does it's very best to ensure parity and equality. Hence the salary cap for one and scheduling for two. When the NFL makes the schedule for the following season, the first thing to do is to have the Chiefs play teams on the next division rotation.

This year, the Chiefs played AFC North teams and NFC East teams. Next year, they'll play a different rotation of AFC and NFC division teams. The remaining games to fill in, the NFL does it's best to schedule opponents which had as close to similar records to them last year. So this year they played Jacksonville and Buffalo which were both 8-8 last year. The NFL did not want to schedule the fill-in games for KC by having them matchup with teams that were upper tier last season. They want to keep parity as much as possible.

Denver's fill-in games this year were Indy and New England. Since Denver had a better record than the Chiefs last year, the NFL gave them harder teams to play this year for the fill-in games since Denver was the better team.

This is the beauty of the NFL, they try to keep everything equal. This can't be said for MLB however.

Unfortunately we might go through an uncapped year next year. Then no football in 2011. Looking more and more like that is what will happen. :-x :-x
