This will fire everybody up ...

Thats a very real standpoint. I both agree/disagree but good points sorta. We have all discussed Mark and the QB situation, there is alot that can go wrong and alot of uncertainties there for sure. In regards to KC's record, KC has to be one of the worst defense teams every year, pass or run against them at your will. Which is why they havent done squat except boast great Off. numbers, admit it. Sure Snyders plan is to spend money, but there is a saying you have to spend money to make money.I know he is trying, look at the ravens they are so tight with their money, never greedy in Free Agency and it cost them, they missed Rays prime and may make some noise this year but be prepared the next 5 years they will be the Browns. I think its a bit nieve of the writer to say the skins fight to be 8-8, yeah its been a battle but look at Joe Gibbs success, HOF coach and 3 rings to brush off the skins is foolish. Heart, chemistry, and talent got and will get us through. With our schedule as rough as some matchup are , the power shift alligned to the NFC, most competitive the division that it has been in years yes it is up hill, I do have my doubts, but I believe that they BELIEVE they def. are contending. If G.Williams is a magician for using what little he has to work with, what would be the rebuttal to the weapons he now has to create a pass rush? Dumbest journalist writing I have read. Al in KC also had half the talent the skins do offensively so I say it will come together come playoff time.

In the Year 2000 the chiefs were 7-9
NFL rank (rush/pass/total)
Offense: 25/5/8
Defense: 17/20/18
Dating back to 2001 when Saunders took over as offensive coordinator, the Chiefs rank first in the NFL with 30,470 net yards of total offense (379.3 ypg). The Chiefs oppulent numbers during that 80-game span from 2001-05 are also the league's best in the following seven categories: offensive TDs (262), rushing TDs (131), total first downs (1,760), Red Zone TD percentage (64.1 percent), runs of 10+ yards (312), passing yards per attempt (7.83) and passing yards per completion (12.61). The foundation for Kansas City's offensive onslaught was established in 2001 when Kansas City finished the year ranked in the NFL's top 10 in rushing, passing and total offense for just the second time since the AFL-NFL merger.
That season, Holmes led the NFL in rushing with 1,555. I dont see any stats to prove the article true. saunders came out of the gate, QB, RB, FB, TE, OL have all suceeded getting to the probowl. Imagine if he had the personnel the skins have.
