OK...So Chiefs Fans Want To Speak On The Raider Nation Huh?

Recently, I've seen two articles posted on the Oakland Raiders section of Bleacher Report with Chiefs fans trying to talk some booty-ass nonsense. For the last month, Raiders fans have been giving Denver Horse fans the business, but now it looks like the Kansas City fans are finally stepping up to the plate for some humble pie.

Shall we dare take a look into the Kansas City Chiefs franchise?

Last season the Chiefs went 2-14. If it wasn't for two lucky wins vs Oakland and Denver, Kansas City would have matched the Detroit Lions going 0-16.

However, the past is the past, and things have changed in Kansas City... or so they claim.

 

OFFENSE

What have the Chiefs done this off-season? I mean, really?

Todd Haley? Before the 2008-2009 season began Chiefs fans had no clue who Todd Haley was. Will he turn around the Chiefs?

If it wasn't for the Cardinals run, he would of never been up for a head coaching job. Besides the fact that Arizona has Fitzgerald, Boldin, Breaston, and a super bowl winning QB in Kurt Warner, there is a big difference in talent.

OK OK OK...you got a new coaching staff, that is a start.

Who do the Chiefs have at WR? Dwayne Bowe? Bobby Engram? Jeff Webb? Mark Bradley? Terrance Cooper? Devard Darling? Rodney Wright?

Other then Bowe, all of those guys are garbage. Bobby Engram won't have the season he had in 2007, and those other five guys you have at WR are no-names. Only Chiefs fans know those guys' names. 

I can already hear the Chiefs fans now saying, "Well, what about Matt Cassell?" There was three reasons why Cassell had minor success with New England.

First off, look at the Pats offense compared to the Chiefs offense. Randy Moss, Wes Welker, Sammy Morris, Kevin Faulk, Ben Watson.

Second, Matt Cassell knew the system like the back of his hand after being a backup for so many years, plus the Pats O-Line is better then Kansas City.

And Third, New England has a better defense then the Chiefs.

Also, the fact that the Chiefs are trying to label themsleves the Patriots West? Ya'll are hella bootsy if you are trying to be like New England, or think because you have the GM and QB that you will win like New England.

That is the weakest shit I've ever heard...Patriots West. Get off their nuts.

Shall we look at the Chiefs' other tight ends on the roster?

Last season, Tony Gonzalez had 96 catches, over 1,000 yards, and 10 touchdowns for your offense. Who in the world is going to replace him for the Chiefs? Let's be honest....

Brad Cottam–last season he had seven receptions for 63 yards

Tony Curtis–spent three seasons with the Dallas Cowboys.He has 11 receptions for 50 yards in his career.

Sean Ryan - six year player who has been on four different teams (49ers, Jets, Dolphins, Cowboys) for a career total of 12 receptions for 105 yards

Jake O'Connell is a rookie.

Tom Crabtree is a rookie.

All of these guys suck. Your WR's, expect for Bowe, are garbage, and your tight end group could be the worst in the NFL. Teams around the NFL will game plan to shut down Dwayne Bowe.

Who in the Chiefs' passing game is a play maker? Who? No one, the Chiefs don't have a passing game.

The reason why Bowe was getting so many receptions was because so much focus was on stopping Tony Gonzalez. Now that Gonzalez is gone, so is the Chiefs' passing game.

Not even Matt Cassell can save the Chiefs. Your offensive line is nowhere near as good as New England's.

Your running game is up for debate. Last season Tyler Thigpen ran the ball 62 times. That is a lot for a QB to be running in the NFL. What does that tell you about the Chiefs' offensive line? No QB in the NFL should have to run 62 damn times.

Thigpen was running for his life. Matt Cassell is slow compared to Thigpen.

You can make the case that Kurt Warner didn't run a lot in the Haley's offense in Arizona, so we will see.

As for Jamaal Charles? He had two good games last season. Only two out of 16, and that was in a loss to Tampa Bay and a lost to Miami.

He's quick, but very small. Truth is, he isn't that good as runner; he is best when he is catching the ball. If Larry Johnson gets hurt, this is your main back. Scary. I'm shaking in my boots.
