In your opinion are we the 2013 Chiefs or more the Seahawks?

Enough cannot be said of how amazing it is we are 7-0, I mean this team is so unbelievable and the fact we are 7-0 without our star WR and our GOAT MLB practically missing the first 4 games is remarkable.

I was doing some thinking and I remember in 2013 when the Chiefs started the season at 9-0, (crazy to think right?) and went on to finish 11-5, got a wild card and lost in the first round after the Luck led Colts came back after being down by like 24 pts and needless to say the Chiefs lost in the playoffs. 

That year the Chiefs had a so so offense but a very stout D like ours. 

Or are we more like the Seahawks? Elite D, opportunistic, ground and pound running game that are legit SB contenders? I guess the argument could be made that the Chiefs that year came out of nowhere with a new HC and suprised a lot of people whereas we are more battle tested and coming off two consecutive playoff seasons whereas the Chiefs were coming off a 2-14 season.

 

What say you?

I live in KC and saw a lot of the 2013 Chiefs... that team was incredibly overrated and anyone who wasn't a Chiefs fan knew they were an 8-8 team that benefited from some serious good fortune. Any successful team in the NFL has some bounces and breaks go their way, but this Carolina team is galvanized in a way that the Chiefs weren't (and still aren't) and plays within itself to maximize the considerable talent on the roster. They drive us fans crazy with uneven performances like the one Monday night, but this team is not overrated. No comparison.

Everyone hates on PU for starting threads but we already have responses to his questions and I predict this thread will go 10+ pages (as many of his other threads do).

They may be stupid but I do have some time to kill so will be checking back.

At least he has slowed down (?)

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.

      How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
