The first half of the game probably had Chiefs fans petrified, unfortunately our offense had its customary second half lull and now Chiefs fans are back to bagging on Brock again. [Reply]

:-) nope. You played the worst secondary in the league troll. Nice try TJ...err Turkey Jizz [Reply]
I've tempered my enthusiasm quite a bit ... just gonna let it happen and hope for the best. The team has to want it and that seems debatable at times in the last month. They lack leadership right now and it shows. [Reply]

Not exactly... so many over react to 4 losses. Fact is, a few teams (Jets, KC, PIT) are playing great football.
Back in with 4 losses after sitting as the division leader all season? I think you were debating with a drunk.
Entering the playoffs in ugly fashion? Sure.
Teams that win the AFC South or NFC East are backing in... [Reply]

Your brick-handed receivers did not help him much. But on a slant or swing pass to the RB-does Brock really need to throw it 100 mph right at their face?
There is more to being a QB than throwing hard enough to break fingers. Your WR's were used to soft duck passes from Manning-now you have Nolan Ryan like fastballs coming right at their knees, or behind them, or high, or right at their back. No touch at all-but still better option than Manning.
If they bench him-your season is over, Manning will break your hearts again. [Reply]

Either way, as I've said ... they're not doing much in the playoffs. They had control of their destiny with the #1 seed in play a few weeks ago, and they didn't fight for it. Losing to OAK really put a damper on it for me, that was such a gutless loss. [Reply]

:-) Nope. Most of us KNEW they would fade in the 2nd half. It was a thing of BEUTY! Provided for excellent TV viewing. VERY entertaining! :-) [Reply]
So what you're saying is he's a Qb that fails miserably once he's no longer running scripted, practiced plays. Or your Coach can't adjust. Or both. [Reply]
