Are you a browns or bills fan?

I guess the Lintys because I have absolutely no faith in the Browns on any level, from coach to GM to owner. And I like C.J. Spiller because he's from an SC college.

Trent Richardson traded to the Colts for next year's first round pick. The Browns are already throwing in the towel.

does anyone understand this at all?

[spidernat]

They know Weeden is crap and now they have chosen to bypass Campbell and are going with their 3rd string QB Hoyer to start on Sunday. It's a signal that they are giving up this season and want to get a pick for next season.

but couldnt they have ransomed him off for more than one first rounder? i mean, the pick they are getting is gonna be way worse than the one they used to pick him. The Colts could easily make the playoffs. Why not ask for a 3rd or 2nd rounder as well? I am sure there are loads of teams that would have loved him

Perhaps but in this day and age RB's don't carry the same weight they once did.

That dude dropped off the grid.

This. Should have gotten more.

KC is the worst 3-0 team I've ever seen. Alex Smith is not a good QB. He gets so much praise for not throwing interceptions but the reason he doesn't throw a lot of picks is because he's terrified to throw the ball downfield. The idiot actually spiked the ball to stop the clock on 3rd and 1. 

The eagles turned the ball over 5 times. The Redskins really made them look good in the first half of their game.

[nats2playoffs]

You figure that new Chiefs coach, Andy Reid, was determined to beat the Eagles, who fired him.
 

[KnorrForYourMoney]

The Chiefs have just been playing inspired football.  That defense looks stout so far.

[TigerFan]

I lean towards spiders call on this.  They've played the jags, boys and eagles.  Not quite world beaters there.  Let them run into the broncos (I looked to see who else they play and their schedule is soft as it can be) and maybe the texans and see how they fare.

A last place schedule is a nice route to the playoffs (See 2012 redskins)

[Terpfan76]

The Chiefs' secondary is pretty stout. They have a solid d and if they can get production from Charles, Alex Smith will do what he does, steer the bus and try not to put her in the ditch.

I think that gets you to good, but I think you need a qb who can have great games (not necessarily great- Eli and Flacco are certainly very flawed, just the ability to have great games) to get to the next level. That being said, arrow head hosting a playoff game would be awesome

[Lintyfresh85]

There's something to be said about a mistake free QB, though.

I can't imagine making a super bowl run without your QB having to put up huge numbers in a couple of games

[Lintyfresh85]

You're likely right... But I can definitely see him getting the Chiefs to the playoffs.

it just depends on the goals, a game or two in arrow head would be great for the chiefs
