We are among worst teams ever - STL is still worse

If you are a statistical junkie, like I am, you have to know about Football Outsiders. They actually go back and chart every play of every game. Then they compair how the team did on each play compaired to the NFL average in the same position (3 and 7 behind in the 4th QTR) to let you know if your team is playing at, below or above other teams in the NFL.

So this week they have their numbers up for week 3 in the NFL. Last year New England was so good so fast that they tracked them against all of the teams as far back as they have been breaking down the stats, I think 1995, and found that New England was by far the best team ever.

This year there are 3 teams that they are tracking to be the worst team of all time and the Chiefs are in the running. But at least so far we are not as bad as St Louis.

Agreed

Did you see they cut their top cornerback this week because he actually jogged during pass coverage and let the other team score?

And they benched their starting QB in the second year of a six year contract. Very bad organization. So I amend my ranking of the Chiefs down to fourth-worst for now. :)

Supporting the lesser of two evils is still supporting something evil.
