Heh, I'm a Chiefs fan and have learned to live with measured hope/optimism, and am plenty happy to let them go under the radar until they prove they're worth talking about.

Even 100% healthy, the team will only go as far as Cassel can take them.

[Yeah...THAT Guy]

I honestly think the Chiefs have as good a chance as anyone to win that division. I'm not sold on the Broncos defense at all, and who knows how healthy Peyton will be.

And I think the Chiefs have more talent on that roster than the Chargers, but the games are played on the field, not on paper.

How is it the Eagles to lose?

Its anybody's division. Sick of this Eagles slurp fest every year. From the Boys to the Eagles it always ends the same.

Any given year anybody can pull it together. The Nostradamus stuff is annoying. Oh and nobody is talking about the Cheifs because they havent done anything in years. Its that simple.

With all the QB drop outs at the probowls, you had bums like David Garrard make the probowl, so it doesn't mean anything. Plus, the OC you had that year is gone, and if I remember correctly, once Weis left you guys got hammered to end the season.

They remind me of the Vikings in 2008; they have talent in a lot of places and questions at the QB position. I believe they went 10-6 that year in a dreadful division. The difference is, all the teams in the AFC West could possibly win it. You also have to play the AFC North and the NFC South. That alone will probably take them out of a WC spot. It is entirely conceivable that the Chiefs open up the season 0-6.

Cassell is far from being a bad QB. He's shown twice that his teams can win when the team has talent on them and around him. They have the talent and if the Oline can keep him upright, they'll challenge for the division and in the playoffs

Chiefs. or Chefs..... something like that.

Now as a former rabid Chiefs fan and one who is jumping back into their fold, I'll take a little offense to that. Didn't they win the division 2 years ago or something and went above expectations? So it isn't like they haven't done anything. But I like the term Nostradamus stuff..... and amazingly there are dozens of shows that use it ad nauseum. After a while, it starts to wear on you like reality TV.

I feel I should add that the Chiefs have a really difficult schedule this year. That being said, I still feel they have a decent chance to take the division. Whether or not they get to the AFC Championship is impossible to determine or guarantee as anything can happen in the playoffs. I just wouldn't be as surprised as most would be. Cassel can be solid. He struggles at times but he is good enough to take a team into the playoffs. I'm not convinced that he can win the Super Bowl, but Trent Dilfer's team won the Super Bowl for him so who knows? No, the Chiefs defense is no where near that Ravens D of that year. But they're solid. We'll see how they handle this tough schedule. This is Cassel's last real chance to prove he's capable of giving the Chiefs what they have been waiting for since the 1969 season.
