Ugh.
Now in we are in Chiefs A.D. (After Damon) and I feel everyone who should play is playing. It is MUCH easier to root for this team to succeed.
Don't screw it up, Herm. Everyone wants to love your team. Three of the next four games are at home. Go 4-0 and you'll likely be in the position to clinch the division with a win in Detroit. Yes. It could happen.
Note: If KC goes 4-0 in the next four games they will hold the tie-breakers over SD (2-0 head-to-head) and Denver (better division record). Denver plays SD in week 16 as well.
I know, I know. It's nuts to think this way given the chickenshit we have as a head coach, but it is possible. Denver and SD are not appreciably better than KC to think KC couldn't go 4-0 in the next four games.
Like I said, it's weird how I've found a renewed sense of anticipation with this club.

I do too! I could actually see us running the table, and being 10-6 going into the playoffs on a roll. I still believe what Gonzo said earlier in the season when he said this team is better than last years team. It just took until week 10 to get the team on the field.
