JMARR, before you get too carried away with the Chiefs, they have played teams that are a combined 1-8 so far this year.
But it's always fun to watch some fans judge based on the first three games of a season. I'm sure you were interesting to read in 2001 and 2003 also!
How many times, over the past 5 months have we heard "This young defense won't jell until probably the 10th or 11th game". You expected to see a cohesive D right out of the box????
No, and I know it will improve as the season goes on, just like almost every other team will. What I did expect was a Defense that looked more disciplined, played faster, more aggressively, tackled better, and looked like they actually cared more than last year's AD-inspired dysfunctional group.
Regarding KC, the point I was (poorly) trying to make is that they are the perenially bottom-feeding frigging Chiefs, yet will probably win their division this year, in spite of having a horrible HC, being one of the youngest teams in the league, and having a QB who is still in the process of maturing. On paper, the Pats are a top 5 team, the Chiefs a bottom 10 team, yet Weiss and Crennell have made them the better team at this point. It seems like, for Belichick, developing coaches has almost become as important as winning SBs.
