Uh, no - no, we weren't. I believe QJ made a comment about 1st-team Preseason All-Pro. He was immediately widely mocked for having said that - by Chiefs fans and Broncos fans alike.
To illustrate my point, I'll point you to a comment I made today in the game thread on the Huddle - a comment that was me making light of the concept. Here is the comment.
No real Broncos fan ever said anything like that with a straight face. But it will heretofore be a part of ChiefsPlanet lore. "Remember that year they were all expecting a trophy for winning the Preseason?"
That kind of thing is an embarrassing reflection on this place. It's why I will occasionally make the observation that trying to have any sincere discussion here, other than with the rare poster or two that are reasonable (notorious, Megatron, sometimes NWO, Simply Red, and DaFace are some examples), is a complete waste of time. You guys get yourselves a big, ol' circle jerk going about something, the actual truth or reality be damned. |
1) It is a crap shoot at best drafting QB's.
2) Nix in his first game was historically bad against a team ranked in the
bottom third of the league defensively last season.
3) Acknowledge and accept that drafting this guy at 12 was an overreach and
that is extremely unlikely that he will become a starting QB in the NFL.
That is sincere - not hyperbole - just reality.
Acceptance is the first step to recovery!
