Those 5 yd throws vs 3rd stringers in preseason really got the homer juices flowing.

You should apologize to Alex Smith for rating this fool above him before he’d played a minute in the NFL.

You aren't a dumb guy, so why deliberately say things that are dumb?

Let's do a two-question quiz.

Question 1) In this context, which of these two things do you suppose saying, "John Elway went 1/8 14yds in his first game" is intended to illustrate?

A) Bo Nix is going to be a first-ballot Hall of Famer; or
B) Judging a player's career by the results of his first start is foolish.

Question 2) Which group on this board is more likely to have ever compared Bo Nix to Alex Smith? (i.e. "Bo Nix is basically Alex Smith 2.0.")

A) Broncos fans
B) Chiefs fans

I was partial to Bo “Oh No” Nix after today. The announcer calling the INT the moment the ball left his hand was absolutely classic.

You guys start these narratives that really have nothing to do with reality. And over time, you convince yourselves that they're true.

"You guys were crowning yourselves preseason champions!"

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.

My comment in the preseason was to come back after week 10 and until then no one knows chit either way. I stand by that statement even after today.

That said, he looked awful today from start to finish.

No narrative needed. You talk too much, and say stupid things. Then complain when CP throws it back in your face.

Eat sh#t pie, QUEER!
And choke on it the same way Nix did today.

If this is a marketing plan, to have NFL fans shop at Walmart. So the Broncos have even more money to waste on foolishness, for the fans entertainment. It may work.

Seriously WTF is going on out there?

[CupidStunt]

Broncos fans, in all seriousness, why in the heck are you here on a Chiefs board with optimism/defending your team?

I've never posted on an opposing board, but moreso I can not remotely fathom doing so during the darkest times in KC history, pre-Reid, aka the Broncos for the last several seasons and many more to come.

I was still here, don't get me wrong, but it was suffering, and rooting every day for people to get fired and massive roster overhauls to take place. You guys like to fluff up having a good ... cornerback. And overdrafting a 43-year-old rookie QB with less arm talent than Nick Vujicic. I seriously don't get it.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

Javonte looked slow, Jaleel was garbage, o line horrible, no separation by WR, TE non existent,Surtain was beaten multiple times so had to start grabbing, soft D line...worst QB performance since Ryan Leaf

Dom, this was a disaster of epic proportions against a TERRIBLE Seattle team.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

I counted SIX balls that should have been picked as well

[Pasta Little Brioni]

Imagine Condoleeza Rice making personnel decisions on your team's roster This is the result of that woke bullshit

[Sassy Squatch]

Imagine coming into a thread that's been a known troll depository for years and caterwauling that you aren't able to have a sincere discussion. Yeah, sorry bruh, that well was poisoned long ago. If MHM shows up and wants to have a civilized discussion may entertain him since he's actually earned it. The rest of you front running douchelords can go piss on a cactus.

I'm still waiting on a Mania apology . We'll see on that I guess

[Sassy Squatch]

Genuinely a bit shocked at the state of the rest of the Broncos roster, though. I mean, it's ****ing DIRE. By my count there's two players I'd be genuinely happy to plug into the Chiefs roster and that's Surtain and Meinerz.

There's not a single skill position player that looks to have any sort of talent worth building around currently. Now, Williams deserves an asterisk because of the knee injury seemingly robbing him of his top end abilities, but there's no excuse for the rest.

Defensively I don't even know what the **** y'all are doing. It's a mish mash of a bunch of ideal tertiary pieces asked to play way above their station and Pat Surtain, all being coached by *checks notes* Vance Joseph.

Some of that is to be expected given the capital you've spent for Wilson and Payton, but there have been other teams that made the same type of errors (looking at you, 49ers and Browns) that still have a relatively high talent level overall. The Broncos, not so much.

An apology to you? Good luck with all that..

That was a train wreck in SEA, will be interesting to see how they react this next week vs PIT.
