I don’t remember who but, someone in this thread said something about trolling. I had never thought of it like that, foolishly giving people the benefit of the doubt that is was just PTSD. But, the example you provide along with other completely asinine remarks towards our QB makes me wonder if at least some of it isn’t trolling. And frankly, as bad as the comments were this week I’d be perfectly fine if the mods considered it all trolling (or most if there is a long standing understanding of certain people’s posting habits) and took appropriate action.

If any decades-long Chiefs fan haven't moved on from "because Chiefs", that is absolutely 100% their fault.
I would actually say bandwagon fans have a better case for saying completely stupid shit as they're only here to see them win Super Bowls.
If you know how bad it was pre-Mahomes and watched those games, told yourself you're giving up on watching every game after every postseason embarrassment and on and on through the years and you're STILL so ****ing clueless after the past few years that you panic in the first quarter and call "game over" when they're down one possession, etc...... yeah, you deserve all the ridicule you get.

I’m going to have a moment of complete honesty here and say that “because Chiefs” is always on my mind when things are going the wrong way. But, I force myself to be positive. There are times in game threads late in a game where things are questionable and I quote/piggyback off of some else’s positive post that I’m not really feeling but, I remind myself of our new reality with Mahomes and force the “To the ‘ship!” attitude.
I’m forty so, figure in roughly 30is years of “because Chiefs” ingrained thinking in a species that is not known for quick radical changes and that old habit is going to die hard. And a lot of the people in this world are just not made up to even try to forcefully make the change like I am; ingrained thinking and habit are just damned difficult to overcome.
But, I still fall back on my new found belief that at least a portion of this is just out right trolling and should be dealt with accordingly.
