Law is coming to KC..

Good get. Why not?
Probably overpaid, but who cares.

Chiefs are playoff bound.

 

The bottom line has to be the assumption by the Chiefs that:
Ty Law > Lenny Walls

If that holds true, the Chiefs are improved and one step closer to the playoffs, which eluded them by a tiebreaker loss to the Steelers last season. Personally, I think they win the division at 11-5.

 

Herm proved in NY that if he has a team with veteran leaders and a foundation built by someone else, he will be successful for awhile, but successful at the level of second-round playoff appearances and the like [which obviously is better than what Vermeil did]. So with that in mind, my guess is they go 10-6 and lose in the second round, while Herm gives some great SportsCenter moments along the way.

 

If all goes right, yeah. I mean, Priest Holmes might be done for the season, so if anything happens to Larry Johnson, the Chiefs might be toast having to ask Trent Green to carry the team.

And as we all know, a defense is almost always so much better with an efficient offense that can run the ball, move the chains and milk the clock. Like what the Chiefs can do with Johnson.

 

Vermeil got them to the second round in 2003. Of course they got a first round bye...but nonetheless, it was still the second round.

 

True, but Herm did win three playoff games. Of course, he never got a first-round bye.

 

Actually, he only won two. Well, not really. Well, sort of.

Jets beat the Colts (FRAUDS!!!) in Jan 2003 and the Chargers in Jan 2004. But really, they didn't beat the Chargers, the Chargers beat themselves.

Then the Jets beat the Steelers twice in the next round, but lost anyway.

Actually, it was Jan. 2005 when they beat SD, but it WAS only two victories. I must have lost track while I was hanging out in the hallway waiting to talk to Herm.

Can't wait 'til Herm resigns in a few years and takes the job he's really suited for--hosting Around the Horn instead of Andy Pettitte Tony Reali.

 

Didn't they beat the Chargers in Jan. 2005? I don't think they made the 2003 (season) playoffs, which was played in Jan. 04. I believe the six were: Colts, Pats, Chiefs, Ravens, Titans and Broncos.

 

They sucked in '03.
