Hasnt been this fun since 2008.

I was thinking the same thing. At least it's fun to watch the games, even if it sucks to lose in the end. '08 was a fun year and if this down year is going to even compare to that year, then I'm excited, because we're not regressing anymore. We're progressing.

I'm not looking at this season at Wins and losses. I just want to see entertaining football and improvement from the team. Right now they are way ahead of what I expected. Defense looked great except on the last TD. Cam is jsut killing it, now if we can get the running game going the wins will come.

Here's the thing that stands out to me: at the end of the game we were still fighting and trying to win. In years past we start calling draw plays at the end of the game - this year we come out swinging with less than a minute left and try to win the game.

We lost, yeah, but that's encouraging. It's a whole new attitude to the team.

Fixed. Screw next year. We have what it takes to compete THIS year.

We do - but it's very obvious from the mistakes that are being made that we're suffering from the lack of a full offseason and that we are still a recovering team. I expect a much better year this year than last year and then a better glimpse at what this group of guys is really capable of next season.

      Some love for Steve Wilks

      By PootieNunu · Posted

      Wilks is a nobody in the grand scheme of things.  He is right back out of the NFL, exactly where he was before Carolina dragged him back to the NFL.  I don't see what he has to be pissed or salty about. He got a shot with 2 teams and was just a average coach as he has always been.  He is a lesser Fox/Rivera

      Chris Long: Bryce Young Went Toe To Toe With Patrick Mahomes

      The way BY must play quarterback has a much higher degree of difficulty.  Coupled with his physical limitations his margin for error is small.    The guy evading the blitz and dropping a dime deep over double coverage is more exciting then a wobbling ball thrown into the blitz with good enough placement that gets 6 yards on a 3rd and 5.  It's been beat to death that he will never be the first guy.  He was the second guy vs the Chiefs.    The second guy is harder to do because it's mostly mental:  reading, reacting and processing the correct solution that the defense provided within a second or two.    It's harder to see on film, it's harder to evaluate.  That's why I think there's a divergence between fans yelling "noodle armed middle schooler!!" and analysts going "hold up, let's not write him off yet"    I personally need to see the Chiefs game be the start of growth before getting hopeful.  Ideally would like to see 1-2 300yd multi td games.  Then I'd expect the entire off season to fix his footwork.  With his physical limitations that footwork needs to be damn near perfect.  I would still bring in competition at the QB spot even in that scenario.
