I know you’re probably expecting another installment in the Good/Bad series from me today, but honestly I don’t see a point. I chose that format in an attempt to organize my thoughts into different categories, but trying to list what the Kansas City Chiefs did right in Sunday night’s game seems pretty fruitless when the outcome was the end of the season.
For the better part of this year I’ve done my best to try and put my fandom aside and analyze each game as a professional. But in my multiple attempts to write this out late Sunday night, I couldn’t.
I tried a few different ways to numb the sting of watching my childhood team fall short again. I indulged in a few more beverages left over from the watching the game. I threw on the season finale of “Sherlock” (it was a good one) and gave HBO’s new show “The Young Pope” a spin. I read through the columns and post-game quotes from sites like the Kansas City Star, Arrowhead Pride and our own guys here at Chiefs Wire.
But every time I tried to sit back down and write this I just wanted to vent my frustrations. After my fourth attempt and getting through the third paragraph, I shut down my laptop and figured a good night sleep would help.
It didn’t. So instead of trying again, allow me approach this from the perspective of a fan and see if we can find a silver lining with where the Chiefs are now.
As a 20-something who was born and raised in the suburbs of Kansas City, I’ve only ever known two types of Chiefs teams: 1) Mediocre 2) Just good enough to fail when it counts. And for as many times as the Chiefs managed to pull out crazy comebacks wins this year, last night proved that this was just another season of the latter.
