Chiefs @ Chargers Game Day Thread | Post Game Reaction (Week 11)

[jamrock]

I am bummed about the number of games the Chargers could have won this year. Its just not a lot of fun for me to come on here and bitch about this or that or the other … its incredibly pointless. We should have won last night. My assessment is we are as good as the Chiefs, but we are not better,


I’m just here a lot less than when I was full of hope and magic was in the air.

Me too. Season had a lot of promise which makes it tougher to be 5-5 and we haven’t played good football for the most part. Just no fun. First half last night was enjoyable but there was an air of inevitability about the result and another poor second half

[fanatic]

Lol No you finally open your eyes to the ugly,uncomfortable truth of how things really work especially when money and gambling are involved.

So when you argue for your limitations, the refs are cheating for Mahomes, you get to keep them. So Mahomes is under KC contract, at a team discount, for the next 10 years. So based on your view you may as well stop watching Chargers football for at least 10 years, because the refs make sure KC wins. So there is that.

Enjoy your reality. Should be fun. GO Chargers in 2033.

Of course Mahomes will only be 36 then so maybe 15-20 more years. After all with this NFL protection why would he not play as long as Brady? Go Chargers in 2043.

My reality. Its a great time to be a Chiefs fan. Make that a great decade or two. Your truth feels so comfortable to me. I can wear it for decades.

Just adjust your expectations.

This franchise will never win a Superbowl. But we can have some fun victories every year, an upset here and there, a playoff appearance every now and then. That's probably our ceiling. We can still find some enjoyment in that.

I keep thinking I wish we had a TE as good as Kelce. He's the biggest difference between these two teams. By the way, if you are one of those that thinks we can stop Kelce by putting James on him, you are delusional.

This loss pretty much sinks our chances of being in the playoffs this year. From here on out it's more about the few who make outstanding plays than it is about the team because this years team is pretty much cooked. Even at that, it's not a total failure. They have found two very capable OL ib addition to our first round pick. Adding three new OL in the same year is really a big step forward. We probably would not have known those young guys were that talented if not for all the injuries. The added playing time and responsibilities have uncovered great talent in Palmer too. It's not all a loss and, ---------------- maybe we'll win out.

Kelce? Nope. KC was running it down Chargers throat last night and if they had just shown patience could have won without even passing it.

But as far as Chargers TE group, you are correct. They are 4th stringers, including Everette, compared to Kelce.

The best Charger teams had superior TE’s. Winslow and Gates. Upgrading that group should be a priority in offseason.

I feel like a traitor to my pessimistic brothers and sisters.
I feel encouraged.
We have 7 very winnable games, we need to win 5.
we're getting healthier.
Who are these wildcard teams that are guaranteed a spot today??

Come on TPB, LMFG!!

Wearing my bolt hoodie proudly today.

If we were the raiders or broncos I could understand the hopelessness but we have a chance against ANY team, that's my take away from the last 2 losses.

So now you not only know more about coaching than Staley, you're smarter than Andy too.

I don't see Miami at home as a long shot.
we won't be favored, but it's at home and we should have the horses to keep up offensively.
titans run game will be tough but we survived the Browns, Falcos and Texans run game-- are we afraid of Tannehill?

Having KC win the division early might even be a blessing in disguise.
A 5 game win streak and we might be able to rest our guys weeks 16 and 17.

Chiefs score 30pts a game on average.
Only once have they allow any team to reach 30.
Best Team in the League.

Chargers scored too soon last night.
Need to make that drive last longer and walk it off against Mahomes. The guy is just too good.

When we scored with just under 2 minutes left, was there ANY doubt in anyone's mind that KC wasn't going to march down the field and score the go ahead TD? For me, the only question was how fast would they score?

[powderblueboy]

Enjoyed the dialogue

good luck the rest of the year

Thanks for the good wishes

Yeah, i liked fanatic.

He can drop by anytime.

Yup, I knew heartache was heading our way.
