As I watched the Chiefs’ latest preseason game on Friday against the Tennessee Titans, a frightening thought occurred to me: “This team is really good. This team could actually do something this year.”
Of course, if you’ve been a Chiefs fan as long as I have, you know, quite well, why that thought is a scary one – because usually that thought ends up being wrong.
Usually, they will not be as good as sweltering summer hopes and training camp heroes lead their fanatics to believe, and they end up doing something like blowing a (cover your eyes now if you’re a squeamish reader) 38-10 lead in the playoffs.
