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 (?)

    • Ummm not sure adding anther 5'9 180 pound soaking wet forward is the way to go here.....    
    • What has happened in HS athletics busted full force into the college world with this NIL/transfer portal stuff. HS sports has been jacked up for a long time now. You have all these "prep schools" that are basically just diploma mills for athletes who hoover up all the good athletes they can get and they're all on scholarship. Then they go out and recruit decent athletes with rich parents to come onboard and pay outrageous tuition while they tout their success at getting their athletes college scholarships. Yeah, those athletes getting college scholarships are the same ones you're giving scholarships to so that you can use them to recruit the rich kids whose parents can pay for it all. You see the same thing in youth travel ball leagues. The whole thing is just getting crazy.
    • It's your right to refer to it as vague, but it still flouts the theory of "zero evidence" that Tepper is changing. Here's another: "Carolina Panthers head coach Dave Canales and general manager Dan Morgan are reportedly being given a larger leadership role within the organization. Panthers owner David Tepper 'has taken a more hands-off approach of late,' according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. 'He's trying to trust Canales and GM Dan Morgan to get it right, knowing that the roster requires patience in its current state,' Fowler wrote. 'We shall see if he holds to that.'" https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10146782-report-panthers-david-tepper-has-taken-a-more-hands-off-approach-to-team   ""David Tepper just wants to win and he's gonna supply everything that we need to win.. Things are changing around here and things are looking really positive" ~ Dan Morgan  https://x.com/PatMcAfeeShow/status/1917639137550627107?t=6vgo8yXTO6eD0Gb55hyzNg&s=19   From about 2:15-6:35, Julian Council, Locked on Panthers, gives his take on whether Tepper seems to be changing (and specifically referenced the war room in his analysis):    Dean Jones of Cat Crave on David Tepper in the war room. "He was an innocent bystander throughout a hugely important decision, placing full trust in Morgan and Tilis to make the right call." Jones also quoted Pat McAfee: "What I noticed though, at one point, they looked at (David) Tepper to get an answer, Tepper didn’t say sh*t. All anybody has said about Tepper is that he’s hands-on, hands-on, hands-on. Too handsy, too involved. He’s not letting the football people do their thing. We just watched in the biggest moment for their franchise, a top ten pick, he just sat there and let everybody do their jobs. I think if you’re a Panthers fan, you love everything you saw there." https://catcrave.com/silence-from-david-tepper-becomes-panthers-loudest-victory Granted, you're not getting a major headline here, but that's not going to happen anyway. Fowler isn't exactly a nobody, everybody knows McAfee, and you also have some locals that follow the team (including Dean Jones). Of course you have a right to believe that Tepper hasn't really changed, but to say there is no evidence that he just may be changing is not really true. It's just not. Hate the guy, but the way that he has handled this current regime is different than he handled previous teams, and his silence in the war room and publicly in general is different than years back.
