Alot of interesting subjects have come up here. Over 100 comments on the post. More info after the jump.

I'm fairly new around here but I've had a few posts and comments so I'm sure some of you have seen me around. I'm not familier with block quotes so I'm just going to quote some fans at S&BP the good ol' fashioned way..

"I think the Chargers will win the division by at least three games. I think the Chiefs and Broncos will battle it out to stay out of last place." - Rated-R Superstar

"Predictions for the AFC west are very difficult this year, as it should be a incredibly tight race for last between the Chiefs and Broncos." - noontide

"I am not going to start bragging about our WR’s, because there are certainly more questions than answers there, but thanks to the Chiefs WR’s I also do not think they are the worst in the division." - noontide

"at this point cassel is just as unproved (if not more) than Russell" - naq92

"i think the chiefs main problem last year was not their conditioning, but their pass rush. DBs cant cover WRs all day so if your pass rush isn’t causing pressure, comebacks become a lot more easier." - naq92. This comment was made after I suggested that the chiefs lost 7 games by 7 or less points and we were clearly out of shape. I mentioned that being in shape should prevent some of those games from happening, and that had we been in shape last year, we likely would have won atleast 2 or 3 of those games (notably SD the 2nd time, NYJ or TB) His thinking about the pass rush is correct, BUT am I wrong saying that being out of shape could have affected the pass rush? Am I wrong saying that our OL was out of shape and made more mistakes in the 4th quarter because they were tired, thus putting the D on the field 3/4ths of the time?

Alot of good debate is going on over there. Nothing has gotten out of control or anything. There have been a few jabs here and there but where would the fun be in a rivalry if there wasnt? Currently sitting at 133 comments since August 1st. Come on over and join the fun! It sure helps when theres nothing else to do, after you've read all the news about the Chiefs for the day.
