In other words, they're getting by quite a bit on reputation alone when it comes to the national media.
I think everyone believes there is a lot of talent on this team outside of the QB position. If you look at a team like SF, if a team devoid of QB talent can play well and the QB plays well enough, they can be good. I just don't think that Cassel is going to be able to pull off the playoffs again.

RAC got a lot of respect for how the Chiefs closed out the year. And yes Pioli is still living on his Pats rep. I don't think they are as much a part of media expectations as the team themself. Add back in the parts we lost last year and its 2010 all over again.

What the Raiders fan has said is true, our customs are different. What Al Davis has said is unimportant, and we do not hear his words.
